He was gonna say he fed the fries to a house sparrow and the guy waiting around the corner was going to harass him for feeding an invasive species. I guess the joke is that the author sees humans as the most invasive species (which, as an aside, is a bad take when you think about indigenous peoples of our species)

“We got a president that doesn’t know he’s alive”

Lol this guy thinks democrats are leftists

Yeah, i agree that there are some really tough contradictions there, and the material result definitely looks like accelerationism.

Thanks for reading it!

I think it’s worth platforming this particular indigenous perspective outlined in Voting is Not Harm Reduction. Not expounding the point but rather bringing a concertedly marginalized voice into the conversation. https://www.indigenousaction.org/voting-is-not-harm-reduction-an-indigenous-perspective/

Sweet! Does it sync to mobile? I’m on ios, and haven’t looked into syncthing

I have been using obsidian for the past few months and i really enjoy it. It’s not open source, but you can self-host a not syncing service called Obsidian LiveSync that I use to sync between my computers and phone

Literally did this this morning and now searx is the default search engine on all my devices. Works great so far

This is funny and also begets some serious questions about who we are seizing the means of reproduction from and why they were seized in the first place. Silvia Federici offers some answers in her book Caliban and the Witch

At your recommendation, this is what I’ve been trying for the last week. I favorited all my artists, and I have to say that it’s working pretty well! I feel that my music library is much more intimate now. I’ll keep ‘testing’ it for a while longer but this might be my solution. Thanks!

Thank you! If I can’t find a way to figure it out in navidrome I’ll consider giving jellyfin a try, since I already use it for my visual media

I use obsidian with obsidian-livesync for selfhosting the notes. Works pretty well across linux, macos, ios so far

I never had a good way to ingest info, but i setup a self-hosted FreshRSS instance a few months ago and it’s completely changed how i consume information for the better. I spend a lot less time scrolling through shit that never interested me much in the first place

So for this, would i make another zfs pool on my remote backup server that is not snapshotted? Like, the problem i have is that i have snapshotting via rsync, but then the whole remote server zfs pool is further snapshotted so there’s a lot of redundancy.

This is fantastically helpful, thank you. I will do this.

I don’t know why I thought sending zfs snapshots was the better option

Yeah i think you have a point but I also think humans were moral agents and ascribed value to each other and their environment long long before the advent of science

I’ve been thinking about this a lot recently. I don’t think this finding suggests that humans are innately negative forces in ecosystems, but rather that becoming indigenous to a place is a process. As people spread out to new areas, they didn’t have cultural practices that maintained historical ecological relations, and upended some of the ecology in the new places. But over time, it’s in everyone’s best interest to maintain relatively sustainable and cyclical ecological relations for long term survivalship, and that becomes part of the culture and stories, and then you get indigeneity. I think there’s no coincidence that the megafauna that still exists is primarily in the area where humans evolved (subsaharan africa). This is where people have been indigenous to the longest, perhaps before people had the means to extirpate megafauna. And once the cultural indigeneity was in place, there were reasons to not destroy megafauna populations (until the modern colonial era, at least)

Ok now do british columbia
