No sex. No dating. No marriage. No children. Interest grows in 4B movement to swear off men
  • It's a protest about women reasserting autonomy over their own bodies. The majority of men in the US have voted for a regime that has shown it does not regard women's rights. It could be different from person to person but it's mainly to show the government that women won't just be passive when laws try to force women to just be a submissive baby maker.

    Supportive men could do the same to maybe accellerate the cause until reasonable rights in the region are established for healthy childbirth and sex.

  • How embarrassing it must be to lose to this guy. Democracy is dead not because Trump policy but because we dont have any functional parties.
  • I can only speak to the politics in the US, but you're right in that Democrat officials are largely are wordy with little talk and no bite. I don't know if I directly blame them for the right turning fascist over the last 10 years but you can't fight a growing fire by conceding ground and feeding it while hoping that it'll be less hungry next time. The start of the fire was definitely started by Trump's propaganda in 2016 but the kindling was laid out prior in acts like Citizen's United. People were bored and wanted something different in 2016, republicans being ethically blind to damage their policies might cause. Dems really fucked up by backstabbing Bernie and forcing a bad candidate into the spotlight. 8 years later and they haven't learned anything and the working class is still left behind.

    I don't know the answer to forcing the Democratic party to fix its mistakes, I just know where it went wrong.

  • Sorry but in the face of fascism, idealism should take a backseat. You can't prod a party to do better by voting for the opposition and you shouldn't punish everyone that is more vulnerable then you are just because you don't like your options. The time to build is between presidential elections anyways.

  • Do any non-corpos actually like AI slop?
  • There are plenty of uses for it. There are also plenty of bad implementations that don't use it in a way that helps anyone.

    We're going through an overhyped period currently but we'll see actual uses in a few years once the dust settles. About 10 years ago, a similar thing happened with AI vision and now everyone has filters they can use on cameras and face detection. We'll reach another plateau until the next tech hype comes about.

  • Billionaires gotta go
  • Not defending her, but it's sorta ambiguous. It sounds like this may have been prep for selling the aircraft.

    Per the article you linked:

    "The last few flights on this account are right around the time that N898TS was sold," he wrote. "Registration for the aircraft transferred 2/4/2024. These short flights are likely maintenance or demo flights."

  • Democrat John Fetterman Says Trump Holds ‘Special Kind of Place’ In PA After Butler Shooting, Hits His Party For ‘Felon’ Attacks
  • He hasn't even tried redemption. Hell, he hasn't even begun to pay for his previous crimes and is looking to commit more crimes. Redemption is when people try to make things right. How can you say this is about giving second chances when all he's done is try the same shit the second time around. What a disappointment.

  • How do you filter ads and trackers outside of a browser while still using a VPN service?
  • On a rooted phone, you could edit your /etc/hosts file with a list of blocked domains. Outside of that, I'm not aware of any way to have a filtering app and a VPN app at the same time.

    Alternatively, you could try hosting a DNS server that doesn't resolve the domains you want blocked, like a pihole server. Some VPN apps allow you to use your own DNS and if you're feeling up for it, there's apparently even a way to run a local DNS server using dnsmasq on your phone mentioned in this link.

  • Leak at First CO2 Injection Site in US Exposes Dangerous Folly of Carbon Capture
  • Welp, that was bound to happen eventually.

    Too bad the solid version of this isn't as easy to implement. Burying algae using open growth pools are probably the best migration method I've heard of so far. Brilliant Planet seems to have an effective process.

  • She ate a poppy seed salad just before giving birth. Then they took her baby away.
  • It looks like they flagged her because she missed multiple check up appointments prior to delivery too, which apparently is a common sign of drug abuse. It really just seems like she's overwhelmed time-wise and really doesn't need 5 children but that's her choice as long as they aren't harmed.

  • Elements of Renewable Energy
  • There are forms of hydroelectric generation that aren't damaging to the environment. We just need to actually be aware of the consequences and perform an environmental risk assessment. I think this is a requirement for new installations in the US, but I could be wrong.

  • Sanity check: Yubikeys and password shares
  • If you're just storing the password on the key then, no you can't get it unless you have the key. The main usage (arguably) for a yubikey is the FIDO2 auth method where you add those keys as MFA methods. That would allow access using either key.

  • Making Infrared Cooling Paint From Grocery Store Items (w/Novel CaCO₃ Microsphere Synthesis)

    As soon as I saw this, I thought of how homemade radiative cooling tech like this could be used in a solarpunk society.

    What do you think?
