IRC: it’s open source, it’s free, its retro

Actually she can’t be presidents can only pardon federal offenses and her sentence is due to state offenses so only the Colorado governed can pardon her I think— not that I think they would or should

What is hexbear and .ml?

Yes, microplastics are bad, but the comparison between electric and ICE cars is just not true at all. Mineral mining can be bad, but it’s mostly bad because bad is cheap, and they can get away with it in third-world countries with lax environmental protections; however, even given this, when a battery wears out, all it is is a change of configuration of the materials that make it up, which you can reclaim, and we’re getting better at reclaiming those disordered elements in used batteries. So the percentage of reused minerals in batteries will continue to climb. ICE cars combust fuels which are used up and turned into water and CO2, which is bad and requires more fuel. Also, yes, e-bikes are good.

Has anyone been able to find the actual audio? I suspect given the participants it’s probably a cringe-fest but it’s disturbing to me that the news is jumping all over it to the point where it’s difficult to actually find the source and listen and do you own analysis.

This seems to be an ongoing problem not just for this story; I’m constantly having to dig to actually find the thing that every news channels talking heads is doing their own half-baked analysis on.

Per the National Park Service Website. You are allowed to carry a gun in national parks; but notably you’re not allowed to take it into government facilities: “government offices, visitor centers, ranger stations, fee collection buildings, and maintenance”. Additionally, it is not allowed to discharge the weapon unless you have specific hunting licenses.

I don’t know what bearing this has on this tragedy, if any, but to facilitate civil discussion it’s best to have a shared understanding of the law.

I like your optimism best to look on the bright side and all— curious what do you mean by fabless? Do they not require as complex facilities because they’re a larger process or something? Or for some other reason?

(I should preface this with the fact that I only really skimmed the aamc article you linked)

I think we have a serious bias problem in medicine. However, the right answer might be to fund studies that debunk the racist claims pervading the education system, rather than relying solely on stricter policies.

It seems to me that we want individualized medicine. Discounting race, different people may respond differently to various treatments; for example, I have really long tooth roots. Therefore, we should develop tests to identify these differences and tailor treatment accordingly. I understand the fear of research that could possibly establish differences in treatment across racial lines due to historical context. However, I would tentatively suggest that if one truly believes race is an ineffective descriptor for such distinctions, then one should expect that studies would more likely aid than hinder the effort to address racial disparities in medical treatment and outcomes.
