It's only a crisis from the POV of endless-growth capitalism. In reality, with AI & robotics doing more and more work, they'll be fine.

I'm grateful renewables tech is developing at such a huge pace. If anything will save us from the worst of climate change it will be that.

The rise of the anti-vacc movement fascinates me (to be clear I deeply disagree with them). Something about the internet and the 21st century has unmoored so many people from critical thinking skills. Maybe its just revealing so many people never had them to start with.

The whole crypto space is so rife with scammers I'm amazed more of them don't get prosecuted.

One of India's big advantages is pulling off ambitious space stuff at a fraction of the price of everyone else. The total cost of this mission was $75 million, way lower than NASA or ESA would have managed it. That bodes well for them commercializing advances like this.

What exactly was the issue with your verification system?

Numerous issues the site dev couldn't fully understand after hours of investigating. We've switched off email verification until the Lemmy devs fix this in an update. Additionally 2FA is often broken too & awaiting a fix.

Yeah, that is a good solution. I've used the icon option to style just the main community. All the rest with a duller/smaller option delineates status.

We’ve come full circle.

It's funny how what is old becomes new. You can see working from home as the revival of a very ancient way of humans conducting themselves.

The cynic in me says as this is America and all the big corporations have the politicians in their pockets they'll "fix" this with new legislation in no time at all.

China said…

People habitually cast doubt on China & Chinese firms and their technological claims, and yet it doesn't seem to be born out by any evidence. They've a pretty consistent record of doing what they say when it comes to space tech.

Thanks for pointing that out, & i'll fix it.

keep an eye out for opportunities.

I'm hoping opportunities will happen organically, e.g. users will be cross-posting & cross-linking.
