A frequency reshuffle is planned in my country and my backbone operator might lose their band in a few months. This means I'd go out of business too. This would be really bad for a lot of my customers who have no chance of getting a reliable connection in their godforsaken villages and forest settlements. I went into the #RuralBroadband business a couple of years ago, as it was the only way to have Internet in our forest house. Guess it's time to start breeding carrier pigeons and switch to #IPoAC
When I had a son, he was born with rights.
I didn't acquire new "parental" rights of my own, I acquired new responsibilities, including to ensure that his rights were respected.
Also to protect him from serious harm, but choosing a name without telling me isn't that. Neither is affirming a gender different from that on the birth certificate.
@neil So my main complaint here (that seems lost to many people in the Fediverse) is about the *system*. Sure, someone who is an adult with means, or sufficiently technically proficient, or happens to be well connected can probably work around the mistakes. And it may or may not have been my persistent prodding to many denials that got ORG out of the adult filter on Three. But everyone else is just stuck with apparently no recourse. It reminds me that "the purpose of a system is what it does" :(

When Canada went metric in the 1970s, it was from Imperial.
Some people still think in it. But we also see a lot of American media, so it's really confusing where Imperial and American are different, especially liquid measures. Is a pint 16 US fluid ounces or 20 Imperial? (The ounces are almost, but not quite, the same)

The existence of the imperial system of measurements makes tool shopping so much more annoying.
Also, nothing more frustrating than flipping over your metric square and finding some useless 25.4mm scale on the other side, because you didn't look close enough when you bought it.
Just drop that shit already.

Globally we produce A LOT of #energy, but did you know the majority of fossil energy gets wasted? In the US alone, two-thirds of that energy is *wasted* as heat.
As Hannah Ritchie has pointed out, we don’t actually need to produce a low carbon equivalent of all of the coal, oil & gas we currently use.
That means we can decarbonize quickly by being less wasteful & more efficient. #ClimateChange #science

Here in the US it's a common belief that technology will save us from #climatechange. What's usually meant by this is a deus ex machina in the form of bazinga-brained tech like fusion/vat-grown meat/direct-air carbon capture. I contend technology has *already* saved us from climate change. We have all the technology we could ever need to solve this crisis. Ship, rail, solar, wind, biofuels, etc. We just aren't building it. It isn't a technological problem.

Fun history behind that symbol.
to my #gardening and #permaculture peepz around here. Do you use any software or digital resources for your gardening endeavours, and if so, which ones and why?
Living in the #wetlands of #Polesia (also spelled #Polesie) in #EasternPoland. Surrounded by #bogs and #forests, trying not to fuck up surrounding nature too much.
Taking care of a small pack of #dogs – #IdąPsięta.
Luddite working with hi-tech.
#RuralBroadband provider by accident. Starting a small LoRaWAN project to monitor our wetlands. Coding in #Python. Dealing with dirty data, cleaning them when time allows.
#Atheist. I don't *believe* in #science – science is the *only* thing that protects us from belief.
Fuck nazis.
