  1. Works fine for me with Firefox on Debian. Are you sure you don't have an extension breaking it?
  2. Are ads a thing on meshtastic? If a node is spamming ads, would I have the ability to block it?
  3. What about if you're walking or biking next to congested motorway and most of the vehicles have LiDAR running at the same time? That's a lot of photons.
  4. Then maybe do something to reduce the causes if it? Recently, China has done more to reduce immigration to Europe than Europe has.
  5. This concept is begging to be built on atproto or solid.
  6. Racist thought and language is everywhere. People supporting racist institutions and language are everywhere.

    These days, bigots are getting their teachers thrown out of school. It just happened at OU.

    Universities are dropping DEI because Trump asked them to. Many companies are acting similarly, obviously in some sectors more than others.

    Ask minorities if racism and other forms of bigotry are unpopular. You'll probably get a different perspective than the one you gave me. That is unless the only minority folks you know are Clarence Thomas and Vivek Ramaswamy.

  7. Again, missing my point.

    I'm generally in favor of free speech, so your argument is not new to me. It's also not relevant to what I said, since you missed the point.

    Also, you think racism is unpopular?

  8. That example supports my position.
  9. Wild how you're weaving a tale about mob justice when someone says something against racists.

    Also, it's logically incoherent how you're portraying mob justice as a bad thing while rejecting governmental regulation. The entire idea of the state having a monopoly on violence is to prevent mob justice, or individuals taking the law into their own hands. Basic civics.

    I'm generally in favor of free speech, but there are thorny issues associated with it that "free speech absolutists" aren't interrogating because they stop at "racists should be able to say what they want".

  10. You're kinda missing the point. It's quite common for "free speech absolutists" to defend racism and other forms of bigotry, but not much else.
  11. I was with you until your 3rd paragraph. Why are you carrying water for climate change accelerationists and racists?

    The examples don't even make sense historically. Haven't you noticed that most governments are failing to decarbonize, and government force against citizens is usually against the left?

  12. The opinion that it is real is also not a fact. We're not talking about physical things. They're made up rules about made up things. It can all be different if we agree to make it so.

    IP isn't a concept that has existed in all cultures for all time. It's not inherent to group dynamics or humanity. It's not even a concept that's fully respected by cultures that claim to care about it.

  13. Shorter copyrights would lead to less beatings of dead tauntauns or thestrals.
  14. But will lower demand coupled with still high interest rates actually lead to reduced housing prices?
  15. At least I didn't give Dang extra work.
  16. It doesn't lose all meaning and your argument doesn't support your assertion.
  17. Not being an American is a privileged position regarding an issue that negatively affects Americans. It's no different than if I, an American, fail to care about, say, Hungary's slide into autocracy. I am privileged to be able to not care about it.
  18. You haven't "rightfully" earned anything. That's such a loaded thing to say. None of your accomplishments are yours alone. We live in a society.
  19. Public property is different from private property, which is different from personal property.
  20. I think they're working on laser data transmission.
  21. Only going back to the 70s shows a lack of historical awareness.
  22. Very strange comment. You're over-generalizing a comparison of one proposed carbon tax to one excise tax.
  23. Because you're paying humans' wages to operate the system, and there isn't a carbon tax.
  24. That's reassuring, but not entirely reassuring. Fetuses are a bit further from the emitter. You're focusing the pressure waves, but what about peripheral pressure waves disrupting the brain?
  25. Seems like you're confusing societal incentive structures for human nature there, bud
  26. Why would Putin set one asset against another?
  27. You're in a large building you're unfamiliar with. Particularly one with an unusual layout, like a mall or hospital.
