What did he do with the wrong ones?

Road signs, like Stop signs, Yield signs. They all use lead as a primary ingredient, I think Chromium is the other metal they use. It’s durable and the Matte-Metallic finish makes the sign easy to read in all lightings. You can still get lead as an additive to oil-based paints, but it’s heavily restricted. You’d have to have a specific use case to import it, it’s called flake white. Metal additives change the texture and reflective properties of the paint, lead is mostly swapped out for zinc and titanium now though.

You can’t freely download and edit society. You can download and edit this piece of software here, because this is FOSS. You could download it now and change it, or improve it however you’d like. But, you can’t, because you’re just pretending to be concerned about issues that are made up. Or, if being generous from what I can read here, only you have encountered.

At best these browsers are going to have some efficient CPU implementation.

Means absolutely nothing in context to what I said, or any information contained in this article. Does not relate to anything I originally replied to.

Scrapers can send these challenges off to dedicated GPU farms or even FPGAs, which are an order of magnitude faster and more efficient.

Not what’s happening here. Be Serious.

I would prefer if you would just engage with my arguments.

I did, your arguments are bad and you’re being intellectually disingenuous.

This is very condescending.

Yeah, that’s the point. Very Astute

It is basically instantaneous on my 12 year old Keppler GPU Linux Box. It is substantially less impactful on the environment than AI tar pits and other deterrents. The Cryptography happening is something almost all browsers from the last 10 years can do natively that Scrapers have to be individually programmed to do. Making it several orders of magnitude beyond impractical for every single corporate bot to be repurposed for. Only to then be rendered moot, because it’s an open-source project that someone will just update the cryptographic algorithm for. These posts contain links to articles, if you read them you might answer some of your own questions and have more to contribute to the conversation.

It’s the red-pill movement. Everything since Gamergate. The endless videos of Jordan Peterson coinciding with Joe Rogan’s tilt to propaganda. Andrew Tate, certified rapist, Sex Trafficker and disgraced MMA combatant. Pushing the idea of individualism and hyper-masculinity. In order to normalise misogyny in young men. Incels, 8Chan and influencers in that sphere have always been disproportionately shown to men, especially young men. It’s part of Curtis Yarvin’s "Dark Enlightenment.’ Dude writes like a 15 year old on Myspace, but the tech billionaires worship him like a prophet. He directly takes credit for even naming the movement. It’s all to spread disinformation and divide the public. Stop us meeting in public and having discussions, just look what Just Eat, Uber, Doordash and all those food apps have done to restaurants as a communal meeting place. Tech, or more precisely those that use tech to damage the social fabric. Want you anxious, alone antisocial and completely dependent on their “services” because they’re all on your phone.

She’s attempting to ban Geoengineering. From Wikipedia:

Geoengineering (also known as climate engineering or climate intervention) is the deliberate large-scale interventions in the Earth’s climate system intended to counteract human-caused climate change.[1] The term commonly encompasses two broad categories: large-scale carbon dioxide removal (CDR) and solar radiation modification (SRM). CDR involves techniques to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and is generally considered a form of climate change mitigation. SRM aims to reduce global warming by reflecting a small portion of sunlight (solar radiation) away from Earth and back into space. Although historically grouped together, these approaches differ substantially in mechanisms, timelines, and risk profiles, and are now typically discussed separately.[2]: 168 [3] Some other large-scale engineering proposals—such as interventions to slow the melting of polar and alpine ice—are also sometimes classified as forms of geoengineering.

Some types of geoengineering present political, social and ethical issues. One common objection is that focusing on these technologies could undermine efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Effective governance and international oversight are widely regarded as essential.

Major scientific organizations have examined the potential, risks, and governance needs of geoengineering, including the US National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine,[4][5][6] the Royal Society,[7] the UN Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO),[8] and the World Climate Research Programme.[1]

Newspaper created just before the invasion, no physical copy, only posting online. Only through English, consumed primarily through American Online platforms and now has a presence on the fediverse. Nah mate, I’m not an Orc, I’m just not blind.

Am I?

Neither, I am gay and I am the shit. What’s your point?

It’s not out of fear, it’s a conscientious objection. To the normalisation of the erasure of privacy and personal agency in an online space that exists to control our behaviour brokered by algorithms incentivised to expand human suffering for profit.

Or, you know some other gay shit…

Well, if the state wasn’t bought by the fossil fuel industry this wouldn’t be happening on this scale, would it? How’s the lone star state feeling now? Punished by plague (Measles), Floods, and instead of locusts they have the massive proliferation of ticks and the spreading of them far outside the state. Life imitating Art.

Wow, what a fun way to give a data point about yourself to attach to a public profile already connected to your IP address and potentially your email as well. Cool!

kyivindependent is a disinformation platform

Bright Light!

Because ICE is going to be the paramilitary the feds control until they can seize control of the actual military.

I’m Canadian

Alaska got an exemption from Medicaid Cuts. I imagine her rationale was that she was protecting her constituents. Fucked everyone else though.

So, someone within America has a negative view about the current American government and their supporters and you want to show them the error of their ways? So, this person you take issue with. Who is wishing ill of the supporters of the government attempting to bring about the end of social equity and expand the class divide of people based on financial income and the inalienable physical characteristics of people outside of white European descent, like the Jim Crow era, that’s rot? That’s what you’re saying. Fuck off, man.

No, it’s actually just geography.

Europe’s Telodzrum’s understanding of the geography outside its tiny landmass is utterly laughable.

Sorry, FTFY
