About 250M years ago, 90% of species on Earth died during the Permian extinction. All of that loss created a lot of vacant niches to fill.
Not long after, the first mammals, our ancestors, appeared.
Life on this pale blue dot will be resilient - whether we’re part of it or not.
But of course, no doubt about it.
We could easily go extinct. And no-one would care…
The planet and life on it would simply go on.

wtf está acontecendo com a Venezuela
Processo Spiotta, per la prima volta una sentenza rompe con la logica dell’emergenza
L’intervista – Francesco Romeo, avvocato di Mario Moretti, analizza il verdetto della corte di assise di Alessandria sulla sparatoria del 5 giugno 1975. La Corte di Alessandria rompe con la logica dei maxi processi antiterrorismo: non più il concorso usato come una clava, ma una ricostruzione più realistica delle responsabilità individuali.
@personalescrito Honestly I feel like the Anon movement is both a psyop and an ongoing sting operation.
@GM7077 Over a decade ago, a Greek anarchist warned that the most powerful Anon Twitter account is a (veiled) representative of U.S. interests.
Latest development. Technically, MPs can’t resign, only request to be appointed to a symbolic role which bars them from the Commons, which can be denied by the sitting government.
Chancellor Rachel Reeves had this to say:
The thing is, Farage is fucked either way. Sure, he will probably win the by-election, but he is standing against Count Binface, a satirical candidate who calls himself an “independent space warrior”. That’s hardly the resounding political victory he wanted. And if Binface gets any significant proportion of the votes, which he likely will, then that’s voters who would rather have a man with a bin on his head than Farage.
To be fair to Count Binface, he’s smart as hell and knows exactly what he is doing, and I (with Kemi fucking Badenoch, apparently) wish him all the luck in the world.

!! Five Alarm: This is real fucking bad !!
Reflect Orbital, a planned orbital illumination system, proposes to use in-space mirrors mounted on satellites to reflect sunlight down to Earth at night. They say they will provide “sunlight on demand” through satellite constellations designed to illuminate areas up to 5 kilometers wide at intensities between 0.8 and 2.3 lux—several times brighter than a full moon.
#ReflectOrbital has outlined plans for thousands of satellites and just got #FCC approval to launch.
Links in Prof. Lawler's thread explain the science and the insanity of this project. We cannot allow this manifestation of a Bond villain plan to happen.
The leader of the Conservative Party is backing Binface. You can’t make it up.
So. If you are not following the Nigel Farage vs. Count Binface showdown in British politics then I recommend you start doing so.
The short version: Nigel Farage, MP and leader of the far-right Reform Party, resigns from his seat to halt investigation into his dodgy finances. Then announces he will stand in the ensuing by-election, essentially because if he wins his (safe) seat again it proves the people don’t care about his finances.
As this is obviously a bullshit stunt, every single other major party refuses to put up a candidate for the by-election.
This means Farage is now running against one other candidate only: Count Binface, a man with a bin on his head.
Clacton-on-Sea now have the opportunity to do the funniest thing ever.
All cars sold in the EU now require camera pointed at driver face, and the data goes ... where?
@lauren no data
https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/HTML/?uri=CELEX:32019R2144
article 6.3
data is stored locally during processing, inaccessible to third parties, immediately deleted after the warning (e.g every couple of seconds)
btw, not necessarily cameras, my car has sensors (like alarms) + steering wheel finger pressure sensors
like, even if the AI can do programming for you, which... is debatable.
It's not going to do it for free. They're selling you the ability to program. One of the main reasons you should learn to program is so no one can take it from you, or charge a fee for doing it.
Sagt mal wo leben wir denn?
Jemand (ein CDU-Minister) brettert zum 2. Mal (!) durch Krauschwitz und wurde in der 30er-Zone vor dem Seniorenheim mit 81 kmh geblitzt. So weit so schlimm.
Im Verfahren sagt dann die Staatsanwältin: "Eine Gefährdung anzunehmen, weil dort ein 30er-Schild steht, ist nicht zulässig." Sie selbst habe am Morgen erst einen Laster mit 120 statt der erlaubten 100 Stundenkilometer überholt.
Kannste Dir nicht ausdenken.
I finally added an oft-requested feature to https://arewedecentralizedyet.online/ , my project to track statistics for the #fediverse and other Internet infrastructure. it now includes history for the Shannon Index, showing how decentralization has evolved over the time I've been collecting data.
„Union will Lockerungen beim Mieterschutz“: Hierzu sollte man wissen: Bei CDU/CSU gibt es mehrere Abgeordnete, die auf dem Wohnungsmarkt Geld verdienen.
Carsten Körber (CDU) erhielt als Immobilienmakler seit der Wahl 62.000 €. Siegfried Walch (CSU) listet 20 Mieter:innen auf. 🧵
@tilde "vaccinated and homosexual" sounds cool to me, is that supposed to be an insult???
@macpsych Happy Friday!
@iamkonstantin And to you. We made it!!
THE BEAST ARRIVES
And it’s going to need a bath before it comes inside.
I’m going to end up buying a 40kV 1000:1 ratio multimeter probe #StraightOuttaShenzen aren’t I?

Ihr seid so toll! Es fehlen nur noch 12.o00 EUR.
Das schaffen wir. Gemeinsam!
Just a quick shout.
Have you seen what is taking place relatively local to you:
Morning! Enjoying the silence, the coffee, and the breeze coming in from the balcony. Braced for more high temperatures, but at least it's Friday!
@macpsych Happy Friday!
