Don’t they sell “Sicko” shirts? They know our love lol

If you want to do more than clap back online, I’m sure there are local movements in your area that are decidedly anti-government and likely share your ideals.

Fighting large systems takes a lot of work, so if you do believe this, please find them and help!

The neat part of this is then getting detained for even longer for “suspicious activity”

Does earth have inertial dampeners??

Fair, I’ve never used Briar, so I was mostly responding to the others. I complete agree though, the fact that there are so many is super frustrating.

I think it has tor routing by default, so different in that way?

I am not.

The effects of climate change are based on absolute emissions and lines in the sand are irrelevant. The reason that we break down by country is to see the effects of different populations, governing systems, and climate policies. If we care at all about the effects of these, we need to weight our considerations based on the number of people we are looking at, otherwise, larger populations will basically always have more.

Correct, which is why we need to look at the lifestyles of the individuals that emit the most. If we look at CO2 emitted by a single home, and CO2 emitted by a city block, then say oh well the block is way higher, we are ignoring the actual waste and only seeing population numbers.

I am actually not. I recognize that total CO2 is the important factor, which is why I argue we address the lifestyles of the individuals that emit the most.

This argument doesn’t really track for me. The absolute number of murders is bad, but to say that a town of 1000 people has 50 murders, vs a city of 1000000 having 100, is to ignore that there is clearly something being done worse in the town.

I agree that the total emissions is the important factor, which is why we need to look at the countries that have much higher emissions per person and ask how are they failing.

Good on the EU. I think I was misremembering the comparison to the US as being largely in favor of China.

Now show per capita

I’ve seen more of it from [the elected officials delegated to head the country], than [the random poster on the internet].

the bar is in hell.

I think the realities of physics will make true interstellar travel hopeless, so to me solar punk as an aesthetic is the more real idea of humanities possible utopia, should one ever exist. With that, I think it also pretty strongly ties the art with action. These facts giving a more grounding for praxis than start trek.

I liked this video on it. Basically, a play on the ideas of cyberpunk, but rather than using grim art as a warning, it instead focuses on radical optimism and envisioning a world we should strive to create. Building off the the ideas of renewable power, hence the solar, it posits that technology used in the right way can bring us to a beautiful and healthy society, freed from the capitalist systems that are poisoning our environment and selves.

Is it normal to double it up?

Valid and this is very certainly my math bias poking through. Though I think to consider the false case of a gender binary, the 1-bit value being M or F would suggest it’s describing the scope of gender expressions in memory values, and this interpretation seems to continue with the meme of it needing to be a 64-bit gender. So in correcting that falsehood, it would be a the space that have spots for all possible gender expressions.

While I agree the tautological approach of person['gender'] = "{Person's gender}" would accurately label all genders, I think the radical point to make is that the space itself is the confining factor. My point being the systems needed to properly represent a gender expression can only be approximated with finite discrete systems.

Agreed the difficulty of describing the gender space even would be near impossible! I always say the simplest way I can describe mine is: Ae^iαt|💪> + Be^iβt|💅> + Ce^iγt|🤖>

|💪>, |💅>, and |🤖> of course being the base vectors I find most useful as invariant under my transformation.

Though, to ramble a bit

Please, this is a very serious conversation about very serious things like an n-dimensional gender hyperspace! Please refrain from nonsensical ramblings.

I guess the real question is, what would best represent your eigenvectors?

To watch what?

Sure, but just because sine is one function doesn’t mean it’s accurately replicable in a finite discrete system.

I read your previous comment as making the point that because there are finite people, there will be finite values of gender, and therefore discrete and replicable. If it’s continuous and variable, even if there are finite individuals that have finite methods of expressions their gender, gender itself spans the reals.

finite number of individuals, there will also necessarily only ever be a finite number of different gender expressions

This only demonstrates that there will be a finite number of genders at any given instance. One could be more fluid and a responsive gender such that it maximizes the gay of any particular kiss they are having at the time.
