hey, there we go, the confirmation I was hoping for. Excited to dive into this at some point with the money going to the actual studio behind it, which also needs that support right now since it's fully independent!

It would be such a great cast for a Kool-Aid movie directed by Scorsese and titled "Jonestown"... It will be cool for Murderbot season 2, too!

Yo hubiera hecho lo mismo, pero me habría ido pensando en lo que habría molado decir "Es que somos quijotescos". Jaque mate. Como ex-librero friki ese paternalismo es intolerable. Y sí, en mi anterior post he hecho un rant contra el fandom potteriano, pero: urnas funerarias de la edad del bronce.

Can we finally talk about how Harry Potter is an average coming of age saga lacking imagination, a melenge of tropes designed to be likable for casual readers, and without any merit other than becoming a popular best seller? I'm sorry if is your childhood book, that doesn't make it a sacred text.

954 years ago, some count was awarded lordship of this little town. His palace stood for the next 900 years, city-owned, becoming the first hospital in the area. Now, the count's work is complete, civilization thrives in this riverlands, a nice grocery store stoods in its place! #LoreMedieval
I always forgot my city had a very cool, "fromhellesque" 19th century jesuitic church! Built in 1897 and teared down in the 1970's to build jesuitic apartments and a small, a semi-undergound parroquial church and a small theater. No love for the works of Ortiz de Urbina in this town.

Way too many people focusing on the names on the tools and not the sociotechnical, sociopolitical, and technopolitical systems and frameworks underlying their design, deployment, justification, and use.
Cities Are Ditching Flock, Immediately Replacing It With Axon License Plate Readers
Rather than get rid of ALPR cameras entirely, many cities and towns are switching to Axon, whose cameras can be mounted to an existing streetlamp, helping them blend into their surroundings.

Hypervisible @hypervisible.blacksky.app · 2w agoFlock has justifiably received tons of outrage, but Axon (and a bunch of other companies) are also purveyors of mass surveillance. Canceling a Flock contract and replacing it with an Axon one is just changing your flavor of authoritarianism.
