Well, release your god damn books DRM -free with localized prices on some service along the likes of Bandcamp.

It's pure, it's easy and God damn fair for both parties.

Yes, libraries are great.

I'll go first:

The situation is really dire for keeping the global rise in temperature under 1,5C, not gonna happen as no nation on earth is even close to meeting their own goals let alone those set during COP.

From my part of the world, Sweden I'm seeing less green forces being voted for than 10 years ago. Instead, fascists are being given more and more power globally.

Governments are touting investments and commitment yet in the grand scheme of things jack all is happening. Eight billion mid-size mammals and counting are competing for comfort and security under various levels of despair under class rule.

I'm predicting the charade of investments and commitment as well as the greenwashy non-solutions being held up will soon be turned upside down (~2028) by fascists whom have taken power (~2032) through the fears of people and we'll have a bleak future not unlike The Road by the end of this century (~2080-2100) as food and water supplies will have destabilized (~2056) due to the unpredictable nature of the climate.


Edit: To clarify, I'm not happy about it -.-

 

I made a post on r/ukulele where I seek help finding vegan friendly ukuleles. Instant-down-vote because of the V-word hindering it being discovered by those interested. It's not offensive, I specifically ask to keep discussions on veganism out of it and I stayed polite about the topic - I think? Mind you this is not the worst case of instant-down-vote of non-controversial or non-offensive honest posts on Reddit. It's the hive-mind-tribe thing of Reddit doing it's thing as usual.

What if down votes had reduced "power" or impact/value. Up-votes are a full point and down-votes are .5 or .75 of a point in order to prevent instant-reptile-brain-knee-jerk down-voting because of a small difference in opinion or world view. So that there have to be two people down-voting for one integer point to count.

What do you folks think?

Why not launch something like amazon.gov and just make that the central distribution channel for all things, food, meds, tools and whatever else the global society needs?

A personal site for me. Static wonderfullness - photos, linux, possibly some thoughts, who knows what will come of it?

Trying out relative units for the typography - tell me if you hate it or enjoy it. I have no idea what will happen on a 4k display. Works great on my 1366x768 potatolaptop)
