Has anyone read the Uplift series?
  • One of my favorites!

    All 3 books in the first uplift series work fine as stand-alone stories. But book 1 (Sundiver) does kinda read like a prequel to the rest of the series. The inciting incident of Startide Rising is what sets everything else in motion for all subsequent books, and Sundiver takes place before that. But it does have a bunch of world building that is helpful context for the other books (and is still a fun story).

    I recommend you read Startide Rising first, then circle back to Sundiver if you are enjoying the world and the author's style.

  • The actual information released in "the Twitter files" showed the opposite of what musky's pet propagandists said it did.

    You seem to actually admit that what happened was identifying posts that violated the terms and conditions of private companies. No demands or threats were issued.Does the government have no right to speak truth?

    If a government agency notices a lethal hazard in your town that doesn't technically violate the law, should they be prohibited from telling you and your neighbors about the danger?

  • such as, the lab leak hypothesis... once completely censored as "misinformation", but now a viable theory

    It was never completely censored. Evidenced by the fact that you, me, and everyone else heard about it.

    People got called names for promoting it without good evidence. People also got called names for pointing out that the evidence was super weak. Y'know, what passes for "debate" these days.

    Stop lying

  • What is white hydrogen? Scientists say the clean-energy gas could save the world.
  • Yes, but the amount of it in the air globally is not increased by burning hydrogen. The processes that remove extra water vapor from the atmosphere operate on a much faster time scale than the ones that remove CO2.
