When I was active at the wikipedia there were a group of other writers who would follow my around and mark my articles on women and black people for deletion. They marked my edits CN even when there was a citation. They reworded everything I wrote to minimize the contributions of minorities to history, and hint at theories of racial inferiority. I'd just go to the library and bury them in more citations. It was kind of violent TBH.
The matriarch of Perth Zoo passed away a few years ago. Now the Zoo is going to move the remaining 2 elephants to South Australia with other elephants from around Australia. They are going to join a herd and have a lot more space at the Safari Park. https://elephants.monartosafari.com.au
We have reached Earth Overshoot Day today, on 2 August 2023.
This is the day when we have used all of resources that the Earth can bear for the whole year. This means we would need 1.7 Earth planets to sustain our current resource use.
@jookia it's been many years but there are many solar powered Raspberry Pi projects. Create your setup with mains power and measure how much power you'll need and then find a project that'll give you the required energy.
BY THE WAY ITS BEEN OVER A CENT...
*coughs*
By the way, it has been over a century, folks.
@eobet I recently heard of #SolarPunk. A world we should aim for and not the billionaires #CyberPunk.
@samwilson haha, I wonder if the captain said "we are nearing Freemantle, please take your seats. ..." And the mapper just marked the location.
I installed a 6.6kW solar system a few months ago and because there is so much solar in my state they are giving FREE electricity to families doing it tough. Nuclear's vision is here but with solar! #solar #nuclear
The energy companies don't need new capacity they just need to install batteries to shift the energy.

@largess @justplanty @breadandcircuses @rosemarymosco @RhinosWorryMe we need to talk to our family, friends, and colleagues so they don't fall down the fascist fear and doom track, but they open their eyes to the problems and solutions of climate change. #NothingIsInevitable #ActLocalThinkGlobal
@samwilson what were you doing outside?!
@xogium cool, I have an Ubuntu server running ZoneMinder for security cameras that I do not like. So I'll give it a try when I switch software.
@jamesthomson all of this tech for a pocket calculator! It'll be great to see all the different ways you can do math in VR.
@danirabbit @mbullington when I was firstly diagnosed people were like can you see this, can you see that. It doesn't disappear from my vision it just doesn't look as colourful. I think "correction" is good, because we use it for glasses, to correct people's vision.
So maybe "colour deficiency correction" and a description saying it'll assist you by adjusting the colours of your display.
I am into science and climate activism. I love to learn about social issues and to challenge my own perspectives. I'm also into free and open-source software and I am back in University studying computer science.
