The first thing I saw on the fediverse this morning had the effect of putting a song in my head.
It's noon now and the song is still there so better just listen to it!
So here's an interesting orchestral version I never heard before
11 - Lilium - Elfen Lied - Symphony of Fate

If you are an anti-fascist, you are against petroleum. Petroleum funds fascism globally. It is at the heart of the military industrial complex driving global imperialism, from both the US and Russia. Motonormitivity is fascist, both in it's elitist roots and in it's ties to historical fascism (Hitler hated bikes, just on principle). Oil is militarism.
Oil is the dominant resource which drives war, both in terms of it being the primary spoil wars are fought over and in terms of fueling the military vehicles and weapons that carry out those wars. Practically every war since (and including) WWII has been over oil. Genocides are carried out to secure oil. Gaza is over oil, in more ways than one.
Oil is the absolute enemy, and AI is simply an extension of that: an attempt to atomize us so we can't resist the oil-centric global order, one last grasp at the control over our lives oil has given to those whose power is now threatened by a solar punk future.
"I haven't written for a few weeks now. As I write the closing chapter and begin rewriting previous sections, everything feels both more distant and more immediate. The working title [Kairos] has only continued to feel more and more resonant, both during the writing and during my pause."
Now is the time to resist by making something different, by creating a world fundamentally opposed to these systems of oppression.
This is the last in my Kairos series. From here on out I'll be editing to try and make it more of a book than a series of posts. Thanks to everyone who has helped so far. All editing is welcome (typos, spell checks, questions and challenges). Between ADHD and dyslexia, it's always hard for my brain to notice mistakes in my own text so I always appreciate the support of those who can.

If you imagine #NYC police as Cartman (from South Park) doing the whole "respect mah authoritah!" bit, the behavior of the NYPD around the snowballs incident makes complete sense. It's not that anyone was hurt, nor was there any damage, but their fragile egos just can't handle not having their authority respected. Even when they do completely dumb shit like wandering into the m…

It's February. It's only five months until ARRL/RAC Field Day!
Last year, I modified Morse Walker to support practicing running CW FD.
I've since done a couple other modifications; sadly I haven't heard back from the author on PRs, so if you are thinking you'd like to brush off your Morse code to participate in Field Day, my fork is still your best option:
