I am talking over the roads, not on them. The on road solar was never practical, and was just a meme/marketing campaign for some get rich quick scheme.

Yea, I know how any of that works, but I'm sure if the battery infrastructure is in place to smooth out the highs and lows of production, it should work well.

Let's also cover roadways and medians. Imagine how much less maintenance and snow removal would be required for a road that has solar panel over it. (Although, then it would turn into solar panel snow removal) It would also reduce glare and result in less accidents.

Solar can be integrated into agriculture, it's called agrivoltaics.

Why is bathroom censored?

And Google Murray Bookchin while you're at it.

You are probably overwatering, let things dry out a bit between waterings and fungus gnats will go away.

I have seen them not posted by bots, as I have posted them on a Lemmy burner account. So this is somewhat personal for me.

The problem is that there is a current developing dogma around AI that, because the last example you gave exists, then it must be opposed in all cases. There is a lack of nuance. That is why there may be some "pro-ai" posts, to point out this nuance. The only reason they exist is due to the bias against it as a whole.

That is a weird way to say that some billionaire stole a mine.

Pro, but in a much more direct fashion that exists currently. I do believe that not participating in elections leads to worse outcomes, and that unless you want to have a bloody revolution , which I and the overwhelming majority of people do not want, then democracy is really the only path forward.

 

This is something I hear very few folks talking about outside of some footnotes to discussions. It may seem like an obvious question, but I think there is more to it than it may seem, and one worth digging into.

What are the overall goals of the fediverse? I realize this is personal and that the answer will vary from person to person, so there is not going to be one right answer. Let me list out some possibilities, not necessarily my own, but some I can think of:

  • To replace closed wall garden platforms (twitter/x, Facebook, Instagram, etc), partially or fully
  • To build tools for communication that are resilient to censorship
  • To build local and institutional communication platforms that are easily set up and scalable as needed
  • To give the average technically inclined online person the ability to secure and take ownership over their online identities through self hosting

Again, no right answer, and it could be all of the above or none of the above. Curious to hear your thoughts.
