I can't help but notice that "white supremacist habits and mannerisms" and "necrocomputing" (ie. faux minimalism in software/hardware) keep showing up together

Have been rewatching the Expanse. Something I'm very much enjoying is spotting all the things the prop department have co-opted to make things look "futuristic".
Need a futuristic coffin, I'm pretty sure that's a roof box from a car.
Futuristic storage box? That'll be a Festool Systainer...
Building on a planet you're colonising? Cut up a pair of 20ft ISOs and reassemble them as a hexagon...
Helmet for a space suit? 3m painters mask with stuff stuck on...
Well played props department.

Mews Report:
Hacktivist shitposters have cracked the shitpost sourcecode and distributed it worldwide
Shitposts are flooding the market causing their value to decrease significantly
Some say this may bring about the end of the Shitpost Empire, with shitposts being returned to the people, for the people

New regulations limiting sulfur content of the fuel used by ships may be responsible for much of the North Atlantic's strangely high temperature this year. The clouds seeded by sulfate aerosols seem to have been masking surface warming that would otherwise have taken place due to GHG emissions:
I sometimes wonder if I'm the only one to actually look at the federated timeline

Funny how the very same people who were complaining about the “threat to free speech” posed by marginalised groups speaking out about hate, are the ones now proposing draconian bills that will actually curb free speech, and in fact impact disproportionately the speech of those very same marginalised groups

@pounce @_ just claim that you're following the ancient Dutch tradition of throwing bikes into the canals.

HP are such scammers
I posted about this very cheap printer before, which strongly suggests that there is No USB, only Wifi. When I first got it I figured out how to print over the network without using the app they try to bully you into downloading.
It turns out it's even easier to print, just use the USB port they try to pretend isn't there!
No company is going to rewrite their firmware to remove the USB stack. It's even more expensive to redesign the hardware to get rid of the USB port physically. They opted for the cheapest option, a little sticker.
They are just trying to store everyone's documents in their stupid cloud service that some teenage extortion group is going to break into and leak one day. Don't give them your data.

Charts like these – showing the immense carbon footprints of billionaires – should make us seriously question any exhortation on what "we" must do to address #ClimateChange (I'm guilty of using this phrasing too). Always ask: who is the "we"?

Found it! (Thanks @largess)
If the world's richest 10% reduced their carbon footprint to the EU mean, carbon emissions would fall by 32%.
lewd-adjacent meta, kink
Also also, I've noticed that the other people who seem to share my kinks (and don't fail the vibe check), are overwhelmingly trans/queer, autistic, and anarchist - and I'm quite curious why that is, because I can't attribute *all* of that to the vibe check
lewd meta, kink
Also, I'm having a surprisingly hard time finding other folks with an interest in CNC, and all that I can find also seem to be subs
lewd meta
Browsing lewd stuff, I can't help but notice that even on the kinky instances, the cis dudes always seem to have the absolute most boring feeds, just endless fields of dickpics in nearly the same pose every time, no creativity, no fantasies, no identifiable kink
Presumably some people find this interesting, but for me... no thanks, a bit more personality would be nice :/
I still remember when I first learned that there are places where parents have to drive around their kids all the time, to go to friends or other places.
It baffled me at the time, and it still does today.
