No traffic! god dammit! Commuting to work is protest.

When are we going to see the revision of parody fighting? It is stupid to fight RC planes with super expensive rockets. There should be distributed assets of interceptor drones of an equivalent class to fight fire with fire instead of throwing gold bricks at pigeons

Musk made a deal with Putin to extort people into using Starlink.

In the card game, I was super familiar with this guy, but it was the only card in the game that I had no clue where it came from.

Later, I learnt that is part of a junked 1940’s Derwent jet engine. (Scott Manley)

First gf. Grew up Jehovah’s Witness, loved a lovely girl in highschool with everything I had. Another later was never mentioned to family. The cult like nonsense of biased prejudice is quite disgusting in that group.

I thought that was only legal in Utah

Yes

WiFi is a standard protocol. Russians are also clever with electronics. Gaining favor with the new guys is as easy as giving them an old phone. WiFi still works.

I don’t think most people fighting for Russia are super indoctrinated on the Russian side; opportunistic, morally corrupt, maybe, but not super jaded. Even if you’re fighting in dubious circumstances, the level of NK dystopian cult insanity is next level crazy. I can’t picture anyone that is around those guys being totally passive about the extent of bowdlerization and disinformation present in NK. Like you’ve got a bigger humanitarian obligation to show those kids that they are living in The Hunger Games IRL.

IRL social network is a major factor.

People are a product of their environment and opportunities. Genetics have nothing to do with hierarchy and display. Wealth is the dumbest and most primitive form of display that fundamentally harms and kills millions of people, enabling humans with the least ethics to peacock around. This is the behavior of subsentient unevolved imbeciles, like if publishing a scientific paper involved a gladiator death match fight with and rival publishing author. Wealth as hierarchical display is barbaric stupidity. If any alien civilization were to exist in some childish fantasy universe and somehow find us in time and space, wealth hierarchy would be seen as a primary reason why humans are if no regard as nothing more than primitive farm animals or parasites as they are unable to transcend to full sentient behavior as a species capable of acting in the best interest of all. Humans are nothing more that sentient cosplay that constantly devolve into sadistic murder orgies of war over meaningless distinction and sadistic torment over the fundamental needs of other humans at every level from relationships to neighborhood, community, region, continent, and world.

The answer is applied game theory in the present. Doing right for everyone, and systematically dismantling systems of exploitation.

Wealth hierarchy will end in a violent and tumultuous way within the next century once the first successful resource acquisition of a M-type astroid in near Earth orbit is achieved. Japan is leading that effort in the present. There is more resource wealth in a single M-type astroid than all of the Earth based resources accessed in the Holocene. That will make wealth as it is now totally irrelevant. The future is in space after we make that transition. At that point, the biggest limitation is cyclical elemental balance and heat budget. The primitive concept of wealth becomes nonsensical and totally irrelevant. Deep gravity wells and planetary differentiation due to gravitational separation are the real creators of human scarcity.

Wealth only buys connections and opportunities. It has nothing to do with merit. Multi generation wealth is a massive hindrance to humanity as it removes any connection between merit and achievement and acts as a barrier to humans of real merit. This is why you are fundamentally only a product of your environment and opportunities. Promoting true merit is healthy for humanity, however anyone that is born into wealth has proven nothing and is a destructive obstacle of progress and achievements. These are the indications of corruption exploitation and a failed system when such individuals lead. Intelligence is not genetic. You do not know of the great things Einstein’s parents or children discovered. No community produces better. No gene pool is superior. We are a reflection of the opportunities we have. Most people have very few if any opportunities in life. The rich can fail countless times and still try again and again. This is meaningless and harmful as it concentrates power and opportunity amongst the incompetent and incapable.

You know that nature programs saying “complex social hierarchy?” It is part of that. Everything we do is part of it. There are multiple forms of hierarchical display. Our primary form is the insane use of the means for fundamental survival, aka wealth. This is a very primitive and barbaric form of display. Academia and visual media arts use reputation as a form of hierarchy; sports use meritorious achievement. We are only animals determining class and rank. No one living can opt out because ostracization is still a class and rank, as is simple survival.

Writing about a very hard science fiction future pushed me into this space. Particularly, what are the implications of post scarcity if one completely discounts the argument that, ‘it is an idealist utopian fantasy,’ and tries to address the real complexity of humanity.

I do not care about dox. I have nothing to hide, like a need for anonymity. I only care about corporate targeted manipulation focusing on my immediate interactions like page dwell time and targeted suggested posts, studies, and products used to manipulate me with politics and advertising

Probably the best and safest method is to look into the foam used for camera bags. That is the most common customisable option I know of that is practical. You’ll spend way less time and likely money if you cut foam to fit and pack everything.

Obviously, I’m a fan of 3d printing. Heck I’m beside my printer that is chugging away at a design I made today. However. I think it is a matter of using the right tool at the right time. IMO, big drawer filling organizers are not ideal for printing. I can make wood cardboard or sheet metal boxes much faster and cheaper than printing.

I could see myself designing a quick 2 rail holder with slots for each device to sit within, but that is going to be sloppy and likely wear poorly on the device. Best bet in my opinion is camera bag foam. If it is good enough for a half dozen $1k pro primes in a bag that gets banged around, it will work for some hand helds.

The longest I ever did it was 5 weeks straight working 12 hour nights too. Everyone thought I’d quit, but I ran circles around them.

Everyone basically gets way less productive, especially with any physically strenuous activity. It’s like you/your body knows full recovery is not an option. You don’t get more done, you’re just there when shit hits the fan.

I personally adjusted just fine. It is no different than slavery. All labor is technically wage slavery. I owned my own business before and after that job. Owning your own business is no different. The line between your life and your business is irrelevant when it is your own business, especially if you have employees.

executing anyone smart enough to question or dissent since 1948

To some extent yes, but it is not a default option at the community level. The scope is only as a user setting overall.

I’m abstracting to analyze a question of why link aggregators do not naturally displace very technical niche forums. I don’t believe that expecting the user to alter their overall sorting method is effective here. Nor do I believe that the pinned thread is an effective prioritization method to promote a more technical niche. In my opinion, the method of prioritization and promotion needs to be organic and democratically sourced as a fundamental mechanism that drives community behavior.

The part that I cannot intuitively work out is how to integrate the old niche threads with the aggregated feed in a way that is nonauthoritative or forced or feels like a narrative agenda. How to both enable content discovery while enabling depth is an interesting challenge that could IMO surpass any current or previous link aggregation platform’s functionality and use in such a way as to antiquate all previous platforms.

Twinkle twinkle little star

How I wonder what rule are

Add technical depth by allowing communities to select a default “sort by most recent comment” like a forum. This is the key difference between ADHD content that focuses on time versus forums that focus on depth. Then find a way to integrate these deep threads into the Allfeed. Bridge the gap between forums with depth and PITA user names versus link aggregators with ADHD but recent info and broad scope.
