  • The amount of ghost towns in the US and elsewhere will skyrocket during our lifetime and become a normalized thing

    Jump

  • I suspect coal country in Kentucky, WV and rural PA and Virginia and the western plains in Nebraska and Kansas, which are already severely stressed with population loss, will see some real ghost towns soon. Especially if the Ogallala aquifer dries up in the latter case.

  • I need to get around to trying the Pern books. My mom was a big fan and had all or nearly all of them.

  • I think I'd put Virginia Woolf on my list.

  • Is there any interest in joining a reading group?

    Jump

  • Sounds like a cool idea, I literally just finished rereading The Left Hand of Darkness yesterday though.

  • People who are learning a foreign language: what are you learning & how is it going?

    Jump

  • Ho, dankon! Mi certe iam kontrolos tion, kiam mi havos sufiĉa da tempon.

  • Esperanto, very slowly, using Duolingo. Why? Just because.

  • We shouldn't have to go to college in order to afford a house by 30.

    Jump

  • Since you said "house" I'm going to push back a little bit. Housing is unaffordable and we should address it but single-family homes are not a feasible solution for a lot of places and situations.

  • What's your opinion on communism?

    Jump

  • Definitely one of the fastest way to start arguments, especially among people left-of-center.

  • TIL Hereticon was a thing mr antichrist (Peter Thiel) funded

    Jump

  • His dissenting views include the one that people who disagree with him are the actual Antichrist, so much for respecting the right to dissent.

  • Whats your hot take on something that doesnt matter at all?

  • Folding laundry is supposed to be to prevent wrinkles isn't it?

  • I am a Transuranic, I am super heavy and my gender's half life is measured in milliseconds.

    I mean if youre gonna use AI slop can you at least glance at it first?

  • Three different failed attempts to spell "event horizon".

  • citacion

    Jump

  • I'm sure the page had lots of them once, but they all broke down or rusted away long ago, heh.

  • If the Enterprise-D "went pirate" in the Neutral Zone and started pillaging helpless alien worlds, how long would it take for the Federation or the Klingons or Romulans or someone to stop them?

    Jump

  • Not that long, you would see it play out similar to what happened in TNG episode The Wounded or DS9 episode Defiant. Picard is pretty cagey but it seems pretty unlikely they could deal with the Federation and Romulans coordinating and putting significant resources into their capture or destruction for very long, at least assuming they don't just leave. At that point, they would find it difficult to keep their ship outfitted and supplied when they are outlaws.

    Tell me there are no women in your life without saying there are no women in your life.

    Jump

  • I agree with all you said, I just can't believe it is possible for conservative viewers of the show to be blindered to the numerous, numerous ways where the show morals, both implied and very much stated, are antithetical to the entire value structure of the modern right-wing of the USA.

    But then again, when I think of the Trek fans I know in real life, it is surprising how many of them are Republicans. Not a majority, but enough. So they might just be overlooking the things they don't agree with.

  • Which stages of life do you think is the best part?

    Jump

  • I like the part I'm living in now, despite the difficulties, since it is the part I can experience and change.

  • Let's get real: What's your favourite Dinosaur? And why?

    Jump

  • Stegosaurus is pretty great, I was always a fan of them, especially their thagomizers.

  • Windows 10 refugees flock to Linux in what devs call their "biggest launch ever"

    Jump

  • I guess it is the year of the Linux desktop for at least some people.

    I've used Linux desktop in various forms for just over two decades, this has to be the fourth time it felt like Linux was having its chance to seize marketshare. Each time it ends up not being the mass adoption that people hope for but it feels like the community grows each time so I think it is neat nonetheless.

  • Should your private messages and group chats be public information?

    Jump

  • In my opinion, we as a species are not ready to live in public even as much as we are currently, with the level of privacy we still have. We are already so hateful and judgmental of the "other" and willing to use legal and social means to punish transgressions from the normal. Privacy is one of our only remaining antidotes to tolerate living against the grain of society.
