From the tech boom to tech backlash, our understanding of the digital has become both deeply personal and deeply political. Two major #TheGlassRoom exhibitions tackling these themes are taking place in The Netherlands, in #Leeuwarden and #Amsterdam https://theglassroom.org/netherlands/
@Fenix I agree, however this came up in an article I rad at the end of the trump presidency there was one concern he may order the launch of nukes (as he lost the election)
I got the impression from that there s the issue that not following orders would be something like Treason, (big deal if it leads fo WWIII even if the launch is a counter attack)
But yes, there has / needs to to be some allowance to be able counterman those orders.
Same when Trump said he would bomb Iranian cultural sites, someone in the US military told him very bluntly (apparently) that would not happen.
@zleap If the commander in chief is a raving psychopath those with the keys have a duty NOT to follow that order
@neuralcurator Covid will probably stay with us, like fue, we need to live with it
If the price of this is simply hand washing more often surely that is NOT a bad thing.

@Fenix If the commander in chief (as in president) gives the order to launch nukes then those with the keys to do so HAVE to follow that order.

@ShowerThoughts Maybe garages should befitted with these as standard as with new houses, people do need to maintain them, as with smoke alarms, if the battery is flat they are useless.

What does Bikeshedding mean ?
@zleap Fedora just had an epic bikeshedding to officially rename to Fedora Linux.
A new visualisation from #TheGlassRoom explores how data collected from sexual and reproductive health apps are stored, sold and used in areas like behavioural influencing. The animation is also available in German and Dutch - watch it here: https://vimeo.com/587782063
