Nothing to add other than this rules!

In my opinion, there are greater influences than voter turnout on climate policy. The corporate lobbying, aggressive PR, and disinformation has influenced the state more than any vote. There have historically been no candidates to even vote for that cared about global warming.

And the oil and gas corporations themselves have influenced voters in the same way. Embedding oil into masculinity, lack of global warming discussion in the monopolized media outlets, etc… Attempts to keep information and awareness from the average voter and make us doubt global warming and even defend oil companies.

IMO, the American state’s impulse to protect capital and monopoly is the primary reason the climate response has been so poor.

It’s great to hear that “every outcome is open science / open source” with permissive licenses for the common good instead of a patent.

Continuing this theme, Liberapay would make sense as an option for contributing.

The bottom picture makes me happy. ☀️

Thank you, I never knew.

Contradiction: Copenhagen, notably walkable and bikeable city, was razed in the first half of the 20th century for parking and roads to make it more like an american city of today. They rebuilt before being the active transport friendly city that is now is.

There is no one universally right way to do activism. We need a diversity of tactics.

No, it makes you cool. 😎 Thank you for your contributions!

It’s not yet on Sci-Hub.

I can’t wait until more YouTube creators move to Peertube + donation platforms like Liberapay!

I had a similar observation when watching it, particularly around eco-modernism.

As Giorgos Kallis put it,

“eco-modernism — that is, the idea that all environmental and social problems can ultimately be solved with the application of technology, and that the only solution to the problems of modern technology is more modern technology.”

In my experience, Europeans certainly have streets without sidewalks and areas with poor transportation infrastructure. So I understand why some can relate.

However, it’s truly on another level in many North American cities. Like in the heart of many densely populated cities, it can be nearly impossible to go to the grocery store without a car. Entire suburbs housing hundreds of thousands without a single sidewalk. High speed limit stroads, filled with full size SUVs and pickup trucks which carry twice the inertia and ability to kill and maime as a smaller car.

Another handy option for adding POIs is EveryDoor.

I’ve actually noticed more GPL-licensed projects give attribution to not only the original author but all contributors.

Whereas I can’t tell you how many times I’ve worked on proprietary software where the company didn’t give attribution for MIT-licensed code. Unlike GPL’d code, the author has no way of knowing that they weren’t attributed since the code is proprietary.

I believe GPL does have an attribution requirement btw:

Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:

a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or

b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal Notices displayed by works containing it;

Thank you for clarifying, I edited my comment. I was referring to coreboot but did not know that it was not yet widely supported in Framework laptops.

This is great news

Are there any instances that you’d recommend? My current instance is shutting down. One day, I’ll set up my own.

One requested feature has been to be able to seed while not watching a video. This could help out to further distribute the serving of videos.

IMO the main benefitof seeding while watching is any “viral” videos or videos being watched many times concurrently have a reduced load on the server.
