Mal abgesehen davon, dass Springsteen natürlich grossartig ist - sollten wir uns an diese Sprache wirklich gewöhnen? Und was macht das mit einer Gesellschaft, wenn ihr Staatsoberhaupt so kommuniziert?
Das Bild zeigt eine weiße Ziege, die unter einem Baum steht und sich an den Ästen bedient. Die Ziege hat ein leichtes braunes Gesicht und steht auf einem grasbewachsenen Boden. Im Hintergrund ist ein alter, rostiger Betonmischer zu sehen, der neben einem Briefkasten steht, der mit "Leska" beschriftet ist. Der Hintergrund zeigt ein Gebäude mit einem schrägen Dach und einen Zaun, der auf eine ländliche Umgebung hinweist. Der Himmel ist blau mit einigen weißen Wolken.

EUpol, petition for ban of conversion "therapies" (LU)
Sensitive content
I am a little bit angry a Luxembourg for not even hitting the quota. It is LOWER than the one for petitions in lux. parliament. Last summer, there was a pro-LGBTIQA petition signed by over 10 000 people.
(But you don't need to be a lux. National to sign, you "only" need a national security number, meaning living or working there)
Well, who wouldn't want to be ruled, errr, "governed" by this pathetic old man suffering from pathological narcissism and general cognitive decline ranting away while watching TV?

L'immagine mostra un castello situato in una valle boscosa, con un paesaggio montano in lontananza. Il castello, con le sue torri e il tetto rosso, è costruito in stile medievale e si trova in primo piano, circondato da un'abbondante vegetazione di alberi verdi. Sullo sfondo, si erge una montagna imponente, parzialmente coperta da nuvole. Il cielo è parzialmente coperto, con nuvole bianche che si stagliano contro un cielo grigio. In primo piano, si vedono anche alcune case più piccole, con tetti rossi, che si integrano armoniosamente con il paesaggio circostante. La scena è tranquilla e pittoresca, con un'atmosfera di pace e serenità.

"It was pretty clear to me that they want to talk about normal life in their comedy, not about the specifics of the war." — actor and comedian Dave Thomas on meeting with stand-up comedian's in Ukraine. Tonight at 8/11pm with @spaikin #ukraine
Jason Koebler (404 Media) "We’re not burying our heads in the sand. We use AI tools every day to understand how they work, their limitations, and, most importantly, how they are being leveraged to become the dominant type of content on the internet. Because we do this, we have some of the leading coverage of generative AI on the internet. AI isn’t going away, and I could imagine using it in the future if it becomes more trustworthy and perhaps if the companies pushing it find more ethical business models. I have experimented with using AI to write complex Freedom of Information Act requests and FOIA appeals and to parse large documents, though I haven’t been impressed with the results. I passively use forms of AI to help transcribe interviews, get the gist of YouTube videos in foreign languages, and edit short-form videos and podcasts. Language translation and transcription feel like true game changers, while other AI tools feel like spam machines. I’ll use AI to help find new information, but not to write my words."
The rapid development of AI is already changing how journalists operate. Reporters, editors, executives, and others across the news industry share their advice on how to engage—and where to draw the line.
Keine Regenbogenfahnen mehr am Bundestag zum CSD, beschließt Julia Klöckner. Schließlich stehe doch auch die schwarz-rot-goldene Fahne für "das Recht auf sexuelle Selbstbestimmung und gegen Diskriminierung".
Schwarz-rot-gold steht für nach dem Krieg nahtlos fortgesetzte Verfolgung, jahrzehntelange Kriminalisierung und Diffamierung, endlos verschleppte Aufarbeitung und Rehabilitation, jahrzehntelange Ignoranz der bloßen Existenz von trans Menschen, Pathologisierung, Verwehren von Grundrechten und bis heute nicht vollständig umgesetzte Gleichbehandlung queerer Menschen.
Da ich Klöckner nicht unterstellen kann, die deutsche Geschichte nicht zu kennen, muss ich annehmen, dass sie sie verfälschen möchte.
Bundestagspräsidentin Julia Klöckner hat entschieden: Am 17. Mai wird die Regenbogenflagge wieder auf dem Reichstagsgebäude gehisst, zum CSD aber nicht mehr. (Politik - Deutschland)
@cstross @qlaras This variation on solarpunk, under the solarpunk name, has been pretty prominent for a decade or so (though it’s being brilliantly summed up and illustrated here in my absolute favorite iteration of itself.) Most the major citations date to the early twenty-teens.
Hey @cstross - first, let me thank you for your books, Accelerando inspired me to be who I am today!
I'm one of the writers of the @SolarpunkPrompts podcast @the_lemonaut mentions and wrote quite a few essays on the movement.
Solarpunk doesn't claim to be anything new, it's just a label people are rallying around to imagine how a future could look like if we are to become a sustainable civilization.
@alxd @cwicseolfor @qlaras @cstross @SolarpunkPrompts I would propose: (and this may be controversial, I’m open to being told I’m wrong) that if solarpunk is to be worth an ounce it cannot be only an artistic movement. It must be something that is, as @the_lemonaut proposes, a behavior or a design that materially impacts the world. Otherwise it’s just another demonstration of what Vonnegut said about Vietnam.
@Jetengineweasel @cwicseolfor @qlaras @cstross @SolarpunkPrompts Or maybe it already is a movement, one which couldn't find a name before, all these technologies from the Global South, open source and open culture values from Wikipedia to Appropedia, Safecasts and more? ;)
Round Mirror by Ethan Sees Last year I published a lengthy videoessay on Solarpunk as a part of collaboration with a philosophical YouTube channel "Myśleć Głębiej" (Think That Through in English).
My exposure to solarpunk has been a) a yogurt commercial, b) thanks to super-technology, cats are enthusiastic partcipants in the weekly commune meetings*
In theory I liked the genre but I didn't see anything I really identified with. Subbing to the pod for more.
Hard-solarpunk? Though "hard" has the wrong connotations
* Extremely unrealistic, obviously the cats would skip them
@neilk I'm one of the proponents of such hard solarpunk - and while I don't know if we have a label, together with @the_lemonaut and a dozen other artists we created storyseedlibrary.org/ to promote more grounded climate future art! 😀
@alxd I tried listening to this but I realized it’s intended for writers
I’m not sure I approve of this tbh. There are two independent premises that are assumed true: that there is an optimistic future, and that it has the solarpunk aesthetic. Then we’re supposed to construct rationalizations for it
I could understand the prompt to be optimistic xor to write about future communitarianism but both simultaneously? idk. Le Guin would never.
@neilk, not sure what the problem is in this situation, or whether you're being serious at all (apologies if you are). Why is a suggestion to write speculative fiction that combines multiple premises bad? Is giving a prompt "write a story set in a world where robots have gained sentience AND where humanity has colonized Mars" automatically unviable? Why? 🤔 These premises don't exist to divine the future. Also...the podcast is called Solarpunk Prompts. What else could the premises be?
Perhaps I should not have said anything. You have a project and it gives you hope. There is lots of undiscovered country even within the parameters you have set
In my defense. I’m very suspicious of anything that constrains the artist to affirm a vision of the future. Been there done that. My reference to Le Guin was that she could only offer “ambiguous” utopias because she understood people all too well
@neilk, it's is A version of A future, and also nobody is forcing anyone to fit the stated parameters. If they feel like it too limiting they can just...not follow them 🤷 And they don't have to follow them forever in every piece they make
Creative prompts specifically suggest frames within which people can create, if they find the idea interesting or compelling. There is also the concept of creative limitation.
I am very curious to know what you had expected to see from this podcast instead
@neilk Out of curiosity - if I told you about a (possibly utopian) country, would you believe that it's achievable within the next few decades?
It's powered by 80-90% renewable energy. 65+% of people work in co-ops, which generate at least 33% of the GDP. The transport is not even public, it's communal - local co-ops own it. Public healthcare. Every child speaks 2-4 languages from the very beginning. Three major religions exist there without big tensions.
You’re pushing on an open door. I am not the person you need to convince that ways of living, other than what white suburbanites in the US know about, are possible and even exist today
I just don’t believe that writing narratives with the overarching purpose of prefiguring some desired political or economic end state makes for good art. That’s just reverse Ayn Rand.
@neilk and I'm trying to show you something else here. Because I am not trying to write art.
I am trying to write reporting.
What I described in the message above is just modern day Kenya. With its own share of problems, but a lot of _good_ things we don't notice.
I started looking into Solarpunk because I needed to have a new language for describing the reality around me that people wouldn't notice, wouldn't listen to normally!

My husband found this red feather underneath the desk in our office (photo below with coin for scale). It’s so bizarre. I can’t think of any Halloween costume, hat or decoration that we ever had with red feathers. I even texted my son and he couldn’t think of anything. WHERE DID IT COME FROM? Were we secretly visited by a Muppet? Is it a sign from the universe?

For months, a coordinated campaign has been waged against red.media — led by an unholy alliance of German media outlets, journalists, union representatives, and NGOs, some of which were even founded or directly funded by the German and Israeli states.
Amid escalating repression and direct threats to the safety of our team — including threats to their lives — red.media, a project of Istanbul-based AFA Medya A.Ş., can no longer continue operating.

Funkamateure und technik-affine Menschen leben durchschnittlich 4 - 5 Jahre länger als der Durchschnitt der Bevölkerung. Nein, das ist kein Witz und auch kein verspäteter Aprilscherz, das ist das Ergebnis einer seriösen wissenschaftlichen Studie. Mögliche Erklärungsansätze, warum das so ist, die liefert RadioDARC in der Sendung kommenden Sonntag.
Dazu ein Beitrag über den Zeppelinflug und Funken aus dem Zeppelin.
Sonntags ab 11 Uhr auf 9670 kHz und 6070 kHz, dazu täglich 20 Uhr auf 3955 kHz.
Das Video zeigt eine detaillierte Ansicht von zwei elektronischen Geräten, die auf einem schwarzen Gerät mit der Bezeichnung 'XPA1258' platziert sind. Oben befindet sich ein kleines, digitaler Gerät mit einem blauen Display, das '3955 kHz' und '0.00 dBm' anzeigt, sowie weitere Informationen wie 'FM' und 'dBm'. Dieses Gerät hat einen silbernen Knopf auf der rechten Seite. Darunter ist ein größeres Gerät mit der Bezeichnung 'RELATIVE FIELD STRENGTH METER' und 'HEATHKIT MODEL HD-1426' zu sehen. Es hat ein analoges Ziffernblatt mit der Beschriftung 'SIGNAL' und einen roten Anschluss am rechten Knopf, der als 'SENS' bezeichnet ist. Ein gelbes Kabel ist an diesem Gerät angeschlossen. Beide Geräte sind in einem Raum mit einer weißen Wand im Hintergrund platziert. Der Fokus des Videos liegt auf den Geräten und ihren Anzeigen, ohne dass sich die Szene im Laufe des Videos verändert.

I do not trust the European Commission to take this to heart and swiftly propose a European law banning conversion therapy. But still, the initiative’s success (and the fact that it was able to reach over 1 million statements of support) will immensely help activists across the continent in advocating for the eradication of these torture practices targeting LGBTI people.
Last month was statistically tied for the lowest April snow cover on record across the Northern Hemisphere. Springtime snow decline has consistently been an indicator of a warming cryosphere and results in changes to surface albedo properties.

Whoo…
I announce the release of version 2.77 of #snac, the simple, minimalistic #ActivityPub instance server written in C. It just reverts a feature included in previous version; links in posts were also included as attachments, but, while harmless and on spec, it made posts look ugly in some platforms, and what the world doesn't need is more ugly things.
