Think I’m out after today. Been a good five years news heads. Maybe I’ll jump back in if WWIII starts. Cheers

Realistically I think that was our one Luigi for like 10 years

(Cw: disagreement) There’s no censorship being talked about here. I think what you’re saying is generally reasonable, but my point is just that this specific example leans so far into it that it becomes a farce, is all

Yeah I think it’s true both ways right? People don’t want to work, because working under capitalism sucks, and then that creates a shitty environment for everyone involved. And then people being pissed for that but not recognizing it’s because of capitalism and instead think it’s a personal defect are assholes and that creates a shitty environment for everyone involved. And it’ll keep getting worse, on both ends of that. And that’s just how the decay of the empire is gonna go. It’ll suck to have your surplus value exchanged for your labor, and it’ll suck to purchase anything from anybody. Until everything breaks

What Is To Be Done (cw: subject matter) lol

I think shying away from even reading something like this is pretty self defeating

I don’t really understand why there’s a content warning for this. It’s a typical Trump tweet

China’s single thorium reactor will take us there

Democratic centralism

Ah yes, the Endless Frontiers Retreat. My favorite retreat, personally!

Yeah very good point -- imagine having a light society and a dark society, both with very different evolutions lol it'd be like all the crazy stuff at the bottom of the ocean except just...straight over there

I know AI sucks but this would actually be lame. I use DeepSeek basically just to search for info that I otherwise could through Google, but without seeing ads and actually giving me contextual info I need. Like I had a plumbing issue and it helped me solve that pretty quickly. Otherwise I'd just be Googling the same thing and having to either go through YouTube videos extended out to 10 minutes for no reason other than gaming the algorithm, or shitty content slop articles with the actual info buried under a mountain of SEO. Or sifting through the worst people's comments on Reddit. Anyway, DeepSeek helps me avoid ads a least a little bit in this shitty internet society, this would be really annoying

The cool thing about this situation is that 1) even though the star is a red dwarf, K2-18b is within its relative goldilocks zone, which would provide the right conditions for life as we know it. 2) Scientists detected carbon dioxide and methane in the atmosphere a few years ago, which is cool but not a revolutionary thing. But now they've detected a LOT of molecules only produced by living organisms (that we know of), mainly phytoplankton, which would be the first detection of its kind in that amount and is a revolutionary thing. 3) Their confidence in the data is 99.7%, and they're releasing the data to the community in a few days for people to verify. Like, unless there's some crazy way for these molecules to be created that defies our current understanding of all of biology, there are living organisms on that planet

High levels of dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and dimethyl disulfide (DMDS)! Wow!

Uh huh. And when I did it, the judge said "it constituted a warcrime" (it didn't) and that I'm "no better than Joseph Kony" (I am). BS

I think a comment like this is fun to write but honestly very far from reality. I don’t think there will be protests organized in a way that would invite this sort of cartoonish state hammer at all. It’s almost like going through the motions of a descent into fascism, but not really reaching any of the dramatic milestones because there just isn’t any resistance to it, and would be fascists doing it don’t really know what to do with that. And then the object not in very much motion continues to stay not in very much motion, despite the spectacle

Oh wait I’ve got a protest sign with a really witty play on words that’s just the thing to stop this

Well they are “Lib1” smdh opsec people, come on now

“Listen, the trains have been transporting the human-cattle to Poland since before we got into office. We can’t change anything without breaking the system”

Oh god
