My fear is that there will be a rugpull at some point in the future and I’ll have to find an alternative solution

If history has shown us anything, that’s quite a legitimate worry to have. I didn’t know they had a CLA :(

If you find anything that seems like a safer bet long-term, please share it here!

Reminder to sign Ross Scott’s StopKillingGames EU Citizens Intitiative (which carries legal weight if it reaches 1 million) if you’re an EU Citizen! Ubisoft killing The Crew is what kicked the whole thing off.

To someone politically literate, that much is clear as day.

For the average person, they are easily tricked by false promises that the right will do the opposite. :(

Neoliberalism utterly failing to staunch the ransacking of the working class due to capitalism

”Why is the right gaining momentum???"

“What the fuck dude, you’re talking like there’s no paper in tray two after I just filled it. Fuck off!”

First and foremost: at this juncture, I would implore everyone to keep OPSEC firmly in mind, and to take preemptive precautions.

Use a phone with Graphene OS, and use encrypted communication (preferably XMPP, but Signal at the very least. No technology is best)

with that said,

Mutual aid will be more important than ever, join and build up your local groups if you’re able, it will pay off in dividends in the coming years.

• Search your local area + ‘mutual aid’.
• Help your local food not bombs.
• Create a worker owned cooperative with your friends if possible, or join an existing one.
• Help spread the meshtastic network to build up communication resilience in your community.
• Plant trees in your community to help reduce the heat island effect for the coming heatwaves.
• Create or join a community garden near you to bolster food availability and foster connections with those around you.
• engage in guerrilla urbanism, make your community safer to walk or bike
• encourage your coworkers to unionize under the IWW, contact them for help on how to unionize your workplace.
• vote in your local elections to try and have a state or city government that is less hostile to the above actions, but continue to build decentralized power independently of them regardless. Do not make the mistake of handing off the responsibility to make things better to them, it’s up to YOU, and your community, and hopefully other nearby communities doing the same, but that is all.
• consider having the means to defend yourself and the skills needed to do so effectively. But do not neglect medical equipment or its use either.

We have tremendous collective power if we just use it, and hopefully this outcome will result in us coming together and building that world in the shell of the old. Collective solidarity is our only solution left.

Glad to hear it :)

If enough of us join in, we’ll be a force to be reckoned with!

This election has only proven how electoralism cannot be relied upon, it’s just us now. We need to build the world we want to live in, without corporate influence.

Alan Carr’s stop smoking book is highly regarded, and encourages you to smoke as you read along, until by the end you won’t want to.

Combine that with a NAC supplement (which doesn’t do anything for withdrawals, but studies show it makes trying smoking again far more unpleasant for your brain which helps you stay off them.

When I was a kid, I played a lot of Runescape. I loved that the quests were all unique and had their own, sometimes genuinely well written and engaging stories, with point’n’click style puzzles, reminiscent of Sierra games. It was the most fun I’ve ever had in an mmo.

But my god is there a lot of repetitive grinding. I tried to get back into it a few years ago, but my patience for killing the same mob for 3 hours straight, or cutting and burning trees like a giant line of cocaine, simply isn’t there anymore.

I wish I could play a version of it without the grind, and just the quests.

That it looks like a real paper is part of the joke, it’s pointing out the absurdity of companies trying to continue to emit carbon as long as they can use carbon credits, which doesn’t address the root problem. The joke of the paper is essentially; what if a researcher who was paid by a mega corp to find a ‘solution’ (which the corp would want to be greenwashing), actually naively proposed a genuine solution using corporate friendly concepts and language.

I think you might be reading a bit too much into the joke, which is the idea of a scientific paper on giving carbon credits to people conducting actual industrial sabotage, a hilarious concept in itself.

But taking it more seriously, I suppose the argument could be made that delaying large amounts of carbon from being released means reducing X amount of time that carbon in the atmosphere has to contribute to warming and potential feedback cycles. Producing something in a different factory may take time, and while the same amount would potentially be emitted at the new factory, delaying it may not be entirely useless (at least, in my uneducated intuition!).

There are too many variables to know with absolute certainty if a particular sabotage action is overall carbon positive or negative based on how much extra carbon would be emitted to fix the sabotage (depends on the type of sabotage). But if the sabotage results in that production not occurring at all due to making the whole ordeal more costly, it would likely be overall a positive carbon action.

I thought maybe it was kneeling, but when I looked at pictures of kneeling horses, that definitely didn’t look right, which leaves only one other option…

Not a terribly insightful article for people who aren’t deeply familiar with what those policies actually do, which is what I was curious about. All I could gather is that most of the country is electrified and they invested in maintaining and building paved roads.

There’s so many good options now: Eternity, Raccoon, Voyager, Jerboa, I’d give the competition a look and donate to the one you settle on.

FreeTube is a client that runs on your own computer, it’s not a host I can link to like Invidious was, because google effectively killed that method.

Sorry to hear his humor wasn’t to your liking.
