@RehnSturm256 @SuperSnekFriend the problem is that people on the fedi really, really, love to get into online fights for stupid reasons and many of them came from other communities notorious for that.

HOW INDUSTRIAL HEMP COULD SAVE OUR WORLD

In 1941, Henry Ford built a car out of plastic made from hemp, flax, wheat, and spruce pulp. material. It ran on ethanol made from hemp and other agricultural waste. Ford's bioplastic Model T was was lighter than fiberglass and ten times stronger than steel.

Popular Mechanics, in its December 1941 issue, reported that "Ford's experimental model was a step toward the realization of his dream to grow automobiles from soil and reduce greenhouse gases."

When Ford was building his bio car, greenhouse gasses were already in the public eye and the car started a renewed public conversation on the merits of biomass versus fossil fuel.

Neither side will make housing affordable, at least not on purpose. To do that you need the price of houses to drop by around 80%. Yeah, current homeowners will get rekt, but they weren't complaining when they were getting magical "appreciation" money and getting free inflation money in the form of their mortgage. House prices will come down when mortgage rates stay high, like 10%+, for several years at least. Artificially low rates are what caused the housing price inflation in the first place.

As we approach a new S-election, we have an opportunity to question the status quo and pick apart the Propaganda being fed to the masses, particularly regarding "safety testing."

everyone's a scumbag, everyone sucks

People who just want to sit around and get high all the time are scumbags who suck.

cut them out of my life

Without a second thought. They're going nowhere. You have limited time on this earth, and even more limited time while young and able. Getting high often as a young person is incredibly unwise.

How many domain names your government needs to block in order to censor an entire network?

Bluesky: 1 domain name
Nostr: 680 domain names, but blocking 10 most popular relays and hosted clients would probably be enough to kill it
Fediverse: more than 20000 domain names

@jyushimatsu learned that when I was in a bad spot in life and I wanted to make a game and the other guy who was gonna help was in college eternally and the other was just a lazy NEET and then both had falling outs with me after a year or two (dodged a bullet).

I'm sure it attracts a lot of people who want to say they worked on an indie game and do nothing, ever seen the credits for AAA games where the legal department and HR team are on it?

The WHO has brokered a limited truce between Israel and Hamas in order to get Gazan children vaccinated. Is there something more sinister afoot?
