In Person Activism@slrpnk.net•A mass 'de-flock' campaign is planned for Halloween, allowing masked people who may wish to remove flock cameras to blend in with the crowd.English
5·1 month agoObviously no one here is going to damage property. But it’s not a crime to add noise to the signal by walking around masked up with a backpack.

Enshittification@slrpnk.net•The EdTech Backlash Is Here, and It's Just Getting Started
3·4 months agoMy school has done a complete 180 over the last few years from having iPads for each student and tech heavy lesson plans to pen and paper, cursive, and physical math manipulatives.

Climate@slrpnk.net•Oil Pipelines Align With Jesus, Danielle Smith [Premier of the Canadian province of Alberta] Tells Christian Leaders2·5 months agoThe Boys already did this gag a week ago. Get new material Danielle.
I was wondering why there was parking on mars.
I agree.
Another way that I like to describe this is that almost nothing could make the earth less hospitable than the moon or mars already are. Asteroid strike? Mars’ thin atmosphere is even more vulnerable. Climate change? The moon swings between -170C and 119 C each month. Nuclear war? Try living under constant cosmic radiation in a pressurized habitat that could be completely destroyed by a few small conventional explosives instead of a nuclear bomb.
If we had the ability to make a self sustaining colony on mars we’d be able to restore earth’s biosphere or make self sustaining arcologies or bunkers.
The Artemis 2 flyby of the moon was really cool. But the photos of the moon really reminded me how absurd it is that a dozen obscenely wealthy bastards are pushing us to live and work in a deadly airless ugly desert instead of preserving the miraculous little oasis in space that we already have.

Green Energy@slrpnk.net•Solar alone is now competitive with fossil power on a pure capital expenditure (capex) basis, and solar-plus-storage is expected to follow by around 2030
1·6 months agoFirst there’s capex, then there’s the ongoing cost of fuel, then there’s the ongoing cost of lobbying to get politicians to waste lives and money on oil wars.

Star Trek Social Club@startrek.website•Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Starfleet Academy | 1x06 "Come, Let's Away"English
5·7 months agoA little detail I liked was Tarima specifying something about destroying her father’s auditory cortex. It answered the question of why a telepathic species would need sign language. In humans, even when we imagine voices or use an internal voice it goes through the auditory. So, it makes sense that a telepathic species might use it’s auditory context to “hear” thoughts.

Star Trek Social Club@startrek.website•Kate Mulgrew Defends ‘Star Trek: Starfleet Academy’ And Captain Ake From “Disrespectful” Online AttacksEnglish
4·7 months agoAre these people even watching the show? (probably deliberately disingenuous)
Ake sits up and also wears shoes when things are serious. It a consistent visual cue. I’d be as mad as they were if cadets were dying and she were laying back in the chair just shrugging it off, but that’s not at all what is happening. Part of her character is that she is serious only to the extent the situation requires, and I think that casual attitude makes sense for someone who has been around for hundred’s of years.

1·7 months agoWell now I want them to release it in print.
It really felt like flipping a switch similar to when I left Catholicism. Once I started questioning borders, I very quickly got to the point of being utterly baffled that people buy into the idea of borders at all.

Trump should require the pentagon to use more horses and muskets.

07 - 15 Oh, so you’re broke?
15 - 24 Where did you even get that? How do you live?
24 - 26 Wow, I wish I could do that.

There are 1.4 billion passenger vehicles in the world. So I don’t think driving is necessarily the 10% cut off.
