A handful cryptographers were asked for feedback on the architecture of the European Identity Wallet. We seized the opportunity to write a short report to urge Europe to reconsider the design, and to base it on the use of anonymous (aka attribute-based) credentials.

@shebang There was someone trying to make an open-source spiritual successor with added realism, but apparently they never made anything past the cell stage.

People are still playing Spore?
Weird.
Anyone who makes spaghetti with peppers is a disgrace to Italians everywhere.
@vriska Let me guess. Your municipality recently stopped adding fluoride in the water.
@beardalaxy It's rare for an indie game to go viral unless it's based on some genre-defying gimmick, tackles some theme that is rarely talked about in videogames, or is a spiritual successor to a long-dead franchise. That what truly sucks about the indie and hobbyist scene because even if you make something truly special, it's most likely just going to be a drop in the endless sea of shovelware, unless you can introduce some genre-defying mechanic that has never been seen before. Not saying that popularity is everything, but if you want to spend more time making games you will need enough people to financially support you.
@LukeAlmighty Geoengineering can have disastrous effects, such as severe health effects from stratospheric aerosol injections, and last time I checked, some carbon capture plants were actually caught releasing more CO2 than they claim to capture.

From one side, it's taking a non-problem and actually making it a problem (probably even worse than what the alleged problem claims to be). From the other side, it's scene as a band-aid solution that only exists to either borrow time or justify the existence of both fossil-fuel usage and/or capitalism itself.

_Government's Self-Insulation_
"Ignorantia juris non excusat" is Latin for "Ignorance of the law does not excuse."
That should also apply to government officials—especially when they make or enforce laws that are themselves Unconstitutional, or when judges misinterpret the Constitution.
FTA: Rationally, however, what of the assumptions implicit in ['ignorance is no excuse' principle]? If one thinks about this principle from the perspective of the citizen, it is certainly not as straight forward as the government believes it is. If ignorance is not an excuse, then it logically follows that citizens must know all laws. Likewise, at the federal level, Ignorantia juris non excusat applies also to federal administrative rules. An appropriate question is how many laws and administrative rules are there that all citizens have to have memorized under this principle. Currently, the federal register contains slightly more than 30,000 statutes. So the law requires each and every citizen to memorize or, at least, be familiar with 30,000 laws and administrative rules in the federal register. It is also the case that the federal government adds between 200-600 statutes per year. A moving target indeed.

@remixtures let me guess, the city stopped issuing building permits due to environmental ideological reasons and now it would take too long to let the supply catch up
@PurpCat @icedquinn @cjd @FourOh-LLC I don't browser Reddit so I don't know. I only know of it because of that PJW video.
@santiagolmtz Did Miles actually say anything about this guy? I checked his MM's website and he said that he can't disprove relativity, only point out the holes.
@PurpCat @icedquinn @cjd @FourOh-LLC That Reddit post is literally just copied from that infamous Nintendo Switch post.
