Yeah, and we need to make it last next time.

Lack of hope is a benefit, but not for you. People thought that a revolution was impossible even before the 20th century, and still, 1917 happened.

Thunder, for sure

Humans on Mars. We are 15 years late already.

Civilization III and/or V

Edit: If you have lot’s of time available.

Some people should just shut up and retire.

True, I had another comment on mind when I wrote it. Someone talking about brain implants. But that’s also valid in this case.

If it will go in someone’s body, it should be completely opensource, from hardware to software.

Assuming your honesty and good faith on asking this question, the real treasure on our gene pool is it’s diversity. Eugenics would, by definition, reduce it. You could assume that it’s a low price to pay for health, longevity, strength, intelligence, beauty and so on, but it’s not that simple. Even some diseases (out or the possibility to develop it) can be beneficial under the right circonstances, e.g. sickle cell anemia can improve resistance to malaria.

It would be great to be able to prevent most diseases before it happens and treat it if it happens (for free, in a universal health care system), but eliminate the genes would be a very bad idea, a healthy specie needs it’s diversity to avoid extinction, and we sometimes feel like we are above that risk, but we are not that special.

Much more secure 👍🏾

I think you can block entire instances as a user. But, if not, you can create your own instance and federate with only the instances that you like. Far more work though.

Here: using Thunder.

Is not about how much we have available, is about how much they think they can squeeze us.

Based on some opinion articles, there’s something to add: Xitter is bleeding money, fast. Closing Brazil’s office may be just a business move to limit costs. Doing it this way may be a strategy to limit the damage of admitting that the business health is in bad shape. With the added benefits of attack Brazil’s institutions and causing chaos that could benefit the far-right here.

Sure, but there are those who say Moraes is overstepping with his demands.

This decision will go through collective decision on STF, soon will not be only Moraes decision.

all I know is that any loss for Musk is a win for me.

Totally agree on that.

Ignoring a ruling from a judge is against the law, in any country.

There is, the “Marco Civil da Internet” states that a business that works in Brazil needs to respect Brazil’s law, and non compliance may trigger block in it’s service by ruling. The representation don’t need to be on the country, the problem with Twitter is that they closed its offices here trying to avoid compliance in the first place. Elon is trying to enforce his views over Brazil’s law. To force a crisis IMHO.

Yeah, that can be different in other places. From a brazilian perspective, there is no “left” on US mainstream politics. There is only fascist-right, conservative right and center-right.

And Threads

I became communist. It does not solve anything, of course, but gave me hope that this dystopian mess that we live in can be solved.

Portuguese, English, enough to understand Spanish, learning French now.
