@mathew What about at night, surely these things would have battery backup
One way round this could be to build an on site gym, open 24/7 so anyone using the gym would also generate back up power for the web server.
@nwalfield All we need to do now is remember the name Octopus and it has something to do with OpenPGP
Looking at what people say about Joe Biden, I can understand this sentiment perfectly.
@aral Lets hope it is just an oversight, however if not we need to encourage more women to apply for these jobs.
A lot of women don't feel safe in forums in that they can pretend to be male (user name / avatar for example) so they can ask questions and get sensible answers.
@torresjrjr +1 however we need to get that across slowly otherwise you end up just confusing people. or risk that, esp if they are used to mainstream social media.

@Moon Where are they locking up the Science data ?

So welcome to the woke world of 2021, say something that gets interpreted as slightly anti trans, racist (even a small comment) you get cancelled, mutilate animals and NOTHING seems to happen..
Even if what you say is part of a wider debate on an issue.
You know, I love what @PINE64 are doing (I have two PinePhones, a Pinebook Pro, and the PineTime to play with) but can we talk about how you can’t spot a single woman in any of the community photos on the web site?
I think the system is just stacked against things such as having rational conversations, the woke lot want to cancel anything they even slightly dis-agree with.
Maybe this is also the result of not teaching critical thinking too.
Old saying you reap what you sow, in this case we have sown these seeds now we are seeing the results of this.
@waronmorons @pamby1 Fully agree in act I have a stem activity looking at how the extraction of Lithium in Bolivia results in the removal of ground water result less water for a farmer to grow crops. Would have made a good discussion topic had we not been locked down in 2020
@agates @js in case you're curious here is the ActivityPub proxy endpoint I setup https://github.com/podverse/podverse-api/blob/develop/src/routes/episode.ts#L67
Yes good point, science needs to be taught but properly based on science data, teach kids to read / comprehend then look at actual papers on the climate , maths interpret actual data form real conclusions and talk / discuss with others to see their view etc
I have said this before global warming aside we will be far better if we didn't drive cars that pump obnoxious gases n to the atmosphere CO co_2 NO_x SOx are all bad for us, not to mention things like benzene (carcinogen)
Better transportation = less need for cars anyway.
@zleap Kids are much better prepared for the modern world by a homeschool education, especially now that they don't solely rely on parents. You can supplement with tutors and curriculums from trusted private entities. But just by reading old books and avoiding the lunatic asylums disguised as schools, at least they would be exposed to reality instead of degeneracy, political propaganda and the Great Reset agenda.
Look at this nonsense for example: https://www.yahoo.com/news/math-education-racist-debate-rages-110128509.html @pamby1
