Bad Dragon…

“In fact! [Opens wallet] Hey Mac, now that you’ve announced your IPA I think I’d like to get in on the action and invest a little, what do ya’ say? How many shares you got and what’s your ask?”

“That’s where you’re wrong, Deandra. Corporations are people, an’ they got a right to own property, votes, and elected officials as much as anybody else! So I say if Mac wants to dedicate himself to generating profit for his shareholders then that’s his right and I’m not gonna stand by while you try 'an take it from 'em!”

Anything less than a cooperative is a compromise.

I don’t want to deal with reading about another Brexit situation x.x

I think that being able to wipe the tracker with a factory reset is a pretty big drawback for software-side, but —and I don’t think this is possible— if you could load it into the micro-SD and make that run the tracker, I (for some reason) see that being more robust or redundant.

I forget the thing has a micro-SD most of the time.

Good to know about the power draw. I think Airtags use a button cell already, so in the end it’s just stripping down the Airtag, finding space, and then 6 screws for routine service.

Yeah, obviously that sort of stuff wins by merit of practicality. I’m just wondering if there’s anyone who wants to go crazy with the idea for the fun of it.

“I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in one minute. And is there a way we can do something like that by injection inside or almost a cleaning, because you see it gets in the lungs and it does a tremendous number on the lungs.”

“I said supposing you brought the light inside the body, which you can do either through the skin or in some other way. And I think you said you’re going to test that too… So, we’ll see, but the whole concept of the light, the way it kills it in one minute - that’s pretty powerful.”

NSFL isn’t as common as NSFW but it’s still an established acronym.

I’ll never be happy to see any piece of humanity’s history damaged or destroyed.

Not to worry, there’s still more than enough Great Wall of China to go around.

[I awaken as a shadow of my former self, a figment of the late-night scroller you met so long ago. I return to you now, humbled and broken by time and nature, and in my defeat I must profess that In my state I find myself unfit to take up the weight of the banner which I swore to bear.]

Yes, the very same Brock Allen Turner, convicted rapist of an unconscious woman behind a dumpster, who only served three months.

I dislike you 16-year old boy, Sycamore Gap Feller.

I dislike you as I dislike Brock Turner, Convicted Rapist.

(You got the reference.)

For a moment I thought this was about something happening in DayZ

No, yeah, that checks out. Police Stations are a hot spot for loot.

For anyone else who works in these sorts of environments don’t be afraid to buy an aggressive hair net or bandana. If your hair gets entangled you’ll be lucky if a scalping is the most of your injuries.

What do you do with the democratic process

There’s more than one way to run a democracy, and more than one way to tally votes; it just so happens that the way we’re currently doing it —First Past The Post Voting— is utter shit; it’s the lynchpin of the two party system and systemic corruption.

If we commit grassroots focus to electoral reforms in favor of Ranked Choice Voting then all these insidious actors will find power to be much more slippery.

Don’t be surprised.

Everyone here is either indoctrinated enough to be here for it, powerful enough to be above it, or disassociated enough to endure it.

It’s just what happens after 22 years of social shock doctrine (I made that term up. I will not elaborate. Ama closed).
