Probably via some attempt to force everyone to verify who they are online by providing their identification documents. It will probably be managed by some company specialized in handling that data, and of course willing to share the data with police and other gov organizations. Data that will be used to track citizens.

Just another endless battle to keep net neutrality alive.

As someone who does R&D testing on plastics that are used in medical devices, I have some insight. Of course the type of plastic matters, but all plastics use carcinogenic chemicals during the manufacturing/extrusion process.

To make most plastic, a polymer resin is mixed with additives such as solvents, plasticizers, and stabilizers at high temperatures. Ideally, you want the additives to evaporate out during production so that you’re left with just the newly formed plastic.

But some of these additives get trapped in tiny air pockets between polymer chains. When they’re reheated, the polymer chains relax and release the volatile, carcinogenic additives into the air.

This is likely where the toxicity is coming from, not the polymer chain itself. So regardless of the type of plastic used, reheating the polymer during 3D printing will release some volatile additives.

Military industrial complex goes brrrrrr.

Workers & Resources: Soviet Republic.

It’s like Cities: Skylines mixed with Factorio.

Or the pirates

I’m hoping to be fully self-hosted by then.

For now… Do you really think they’re immune to enshitification if they become more popular?

Does that make Excel the operating system? Or is it the firmware/BIOS

Agreed. We need to take it up a notch. If you’re getting a permit for your protest, it’s not really a protest. It’s a parade with signs.

Protests should be against the law, even peaceful ones. Things like peacefully sitting in places deemed illegal, creating human chains around eco-destructive & heavily polluting machinery, and destroying harmful oil infrastructure.

The elite will argue that destroying their property is violence, when it is really an act of self-defence. We are an intelligent animal species that comes from the Earth. It is part of us. The same way that your skin cells, and the tissues lining your lungs, make up who you are.

We need to start defending ourselves against the cancer that is capitalism. This is a great staying guide: Eco-defense needs to be popularized.

America! FUCK YEAH! Comin’ again to save the motherfuckin’ day, yeah!

That’s probably cause the userbase was flooded with bots to make up the difference

Hydroponics, when combined with indoor, vertical farming, is the reason that the Netherlands are one of Europe largest exporters of food. Even though they’re one of the countries with the least amount of farmland.

Every bullet fired, every bomb dropped, is money in the bank for American military corporations. War = $$$

Copper wires are expensive. And you need to house those wires in aluminum pipes. That’s a lot of metal that you no longer need to buy. Especially considering how many light switches in our homes.

Add in the fact that donations can also be funneled into political campaign funds… And you get one America.

It incentivises stupidity, and controversial opinions, which gets more views and makes the “influencer” money.

I bet age, weight, and height were probably bigger factors than the voice. Also larger people probably have a lower voice.

TBF, many people ain’t got no brain neither
