yay.

Has anyone watched any of these? Any good one? I haven’t watched a movie in so long, but I am up for watching a climate-related one.

I don’t like how he seems to quote (positively) Noam Chosmky so much. By the end of the article, it ceases to be fact-based and becomes more opinionated.

He makes a few points that I disagree with, namely: “the whole educational and professional training system is a very elaborate filter, which just weeds out people who are too independent and who think for themselves and who don’t know how to be submissive and so on - because they’re dysfunctional to the institutions” (This is from a Chomsky’s book). I 100% disagree with this. I just don’t see people creating an educational system that filters out good thinkers and smart people. If it does, it is surely failing. (I am in Europe). Ask any teacher what sort of training they received to filter out those people. They will tell you none. Ask any teacher what is the reason that one fails in the educational system. Not one teacher will tell you “oh, that person is too smart, too independent, for our current educational system. He needs to be dumber if he wishes to pass.”. Come on…

I wish he would have kept the document fact based. This is surely an attacking point that may be used to detract the rest of it.

Where are the guides on how to facilitate mass migration? Where are the guides for agriculture in the absence of international supply lines and fertilizer? Where are the checklists of supplies for individuals, small communities, and large communities?

I don’t know? Where are they? Post them. Create them.

If all you have to say of the 57 pages of the document is “the title is wrong”: Thank you for your contribution.

Most of it are graphs. I don’t think it takes that long to read. But even if it does, it should be read. Read it over a week, or two, or however long. Instead of doomscrolling, doomread. At least you are not giving money to pedophiles by reading this.

I tried movim for like 2 minutes. It was too much. It felt more like a full social network (chat+mastodon in one?) than just a chat software. I didn’t like that. Too convoluted and complex. And the UI/UX was confusing.

I really want XMPP to do well though.

Greta is honestly one of my heroes. The amount of hate that she got growing up, from right wing pedophiles(-protectors) is astonishing. And she persevered! All she did was point to the climate science. She tried to improve the world for both everyone alive and those yet to come. And she got hate for it.

Whenever a person tells me that they don’t like Greta, I know that I won’t like that person.

I use my own domain. I do not host my own email myself though. For email providers, you have several options, Migadu being one of them. But pretty much all premium email providers nowadays allow you to use your own domain.

For aliases, I would recommend something like Addy. It is basically a forwarding service, that hides your real email address. It is really cool. Spamgourmet used to do this back in the day, but nowadays it is mostly dead.
