[Kirsten Dirksen] Rundown Apartments Reborn as Food-Forest Coliving Agritopia
can we at least put “scientist” in quotes whenever referring to any of these three?
the Internet and the Web are fine – Web 2.0 was where things started going wrong – the cancer that begat the parasites of Web 3.0, crypto coin, and LLMs feeding off the twitching remains
that’s what happens when you let corporations bribe lobby your politicians
Florida has a lot of alligators – DeSantis is building a concentration camp in Florida (in the middle of Big Cypress National Preserve, a environmentally protected area) – and the conservatives came up with the bright idea of calling it “Alligator Alcatraz”
[everyone else is trying to decide between “Alligator Auschwitz”, “Everglades Concentration Camp”, or “Gulag 34141”]

“hacked” or just used the FBI’s own backdoors?
Justice Democrats, progressives, Bernie Sanders, AOC, Mamdani are all outliers – the majority of the Democratic party (and especially the DNC) have dedicated their very souls to maintaining the status quo and maintaining their corporate funding – they are the “white moderate” that MLK was warning as being even more dangerous than KKK – we know the Republicans hate us while the Democrats will pat you on the back as they tell you their hands are tied and this isn’t the time and don’t rock the boat and they know what you want better than you do
“In February 2005, EverQuest II ran a promotion with Pizza Hut to allow players to order pizza from within the game. Players could type
/pizzainto the chat bar, which would open the online ordering section of the Pizza Hut website.”
for aviation, we already have airships (which use something like 8% of the power of an airplane)
the biggest “gotcha” is time – taking a week to get to a destination when you only get two weeks vacation is a no go – which means, just like trucks, electrifying aviation and maritime is going to be limited to cargo and commercial for the time being
(this is just as a matter of curiosity)
we now have a couple distros using musl instead of (or along side of) glibc, so I got to wondering (got sidetracked by) if anyone had done a similar project with tcc replacing gcc?
ed was based on using the teletype – the “persistent display” was the paper itself
> What I really love is that when the teletype has finished printing off his little diary, Rex can simply tear it off and walk away, keeping it in his pocket, put on his wall. It’s produced a little physical artifact for him to carry around.
> “If blasting CO2 into the air and ruining all of our freshwater and traumatizing cheap laborers and making every sysadmin you know miserable and ripping off code and books and art at scale and ruining our fucking democracy isn’t enough for you to leave this shit alone, what is?”
Local Confederate LARPer Dale McKagney was known around town as a loser in his everyday life which coincided with his role-playing life.

> “Graffiti on a support wall under an overpass that reads: > > “‘What kind of paint are you using to paint over this? Because if it is latex, it's probably way too cold for it. You want good adhesion, you need like at least 40°-45°. Maybe wait till it warms up a little. I mean, what's the big rush? Like, I'm in a rush now, but our situations are different.’ > > “You can tell from the photo that previous graffiti was painted over many time with slightly different colors of grey with the latest cover up (that was written over with the above text) showing bubbles and ripples in the paint from using the wrong paint at the wrong temperature.”
The Age of the Coward is here, where America’s most powerful corporations, once eager to preach their values, now fold like cheap umbrellas at the first gust of political wind.
> “The brazen hypocrisy staggers the mind. Disney, which commands a market cap larger than the GDP of many nations, can't find the courage to even wait for court challenges? Meta, which regularly boasts its power to connect billions, suddenly can't muster the strength to defend its own policies and users? These aren't businesses making tough choices – they're paper empires run by moral cowards—simpering, whimpering, and weak.”
> “Do you actually get a say in what the party does? Or are you just another wallet to reach into? Do they see you as a member? Or do they see you as another customer?”
