Server-first nuclear reactor on the modded Minecraft server we set up, which means an automated monitoring system. I coded this in about two hours, it's set up to ping my real-life smartphone if some error condition occurs.

I do love how in the immeasurable amount of traction this post gained, for reasons that still elude me, nobody pointed out that it was six in the morning when I finished the code.

On this day, 18 July 1969, Black Panthers held a conference in Oakland alongside the predominantly white anti-racist Young Patriots Organisation and Puerto Rican street gang-turned-radical group the Young Lords. A KPIX news report described the event as an “unconventional convention” which was nevertheless “well-organised and orderly”, and explained that the Panthers’ motivation in holding it was to emphasise “class struggle” and “revolutionary unity”. The Young Patriots were a group of poor, mostly Appalachian migrants in Chicago. Although they opposed racism, they originally wore Confederate flags, which they believed were a symbol of rebellion. Leading Panther Fred Hampton played a key role in building links with them and other white working-class youth, until he was assassinated by police. In his speech, William "Preacherman" Fesperman of the Young Patriots, argued for armed self-defence against police brutality: "A gun on the side of a pig means two things: it means racism and it means capitalism and the gun on the side of a revolutionary, on the side of the people, means solidarity and socialism." Later, the Young Patriots abandoned the Confederate flag symbol as an irredeemable symbol of white supremacy. As former-Patriot Hy Thurman explained to Redneck Revolt: “As we grew politically and respected the Black Panthers and the Young Lords we determined that there was no place in the movement or the world for the Confederate flag. It symbolises a period of time when our Black brothers and sisters were mere property to be sold or destroyed at the white man's convenience. And that the Confederate flag was created to serve as a symbol of plantation owners to perpetuate slavocracy.” Learn more about the Panthers in these books by former members: https://shop.workingclasshistory.com/collections/all/black-panthers

It would kill half the 19-25 year olds online to realize "I can't help it I have trauma" is one of THE quintessential abuser excuses

[gaydiation-poisoning]

Like there is a difference between "My trauma creates impulsive urges and has changed my instinctive reactions to be irrational, I need to relearn shit." vs "I'm traumatized so I Can't Help It and you're not allowed to expect better of me"

I swear people learn about controlled burns and decide to become forestry experts. No, jackasses, the reason the fires in Ontario are so bad this year isn’t because “Canada refuses to manage its land” (though Doug Ford did cut funding to firefighting, but he’s a right winger so you won’t hear about that from most of these types) it’s because of fucking climate change. It’s because of fucking climate change!!! And now there’s an entire community burned to the ground BECAUSE OF FUCKING CLIMATE CHANGE. Like do you guys even understand the scale of the boreal forests here? It would be near-impossible to ‘manage’ them to prevent fires like this, we fix this by doing something about fucking climate change!

And yeah the smoke sucks I’m sorry but fuck you if you’ve decided to go “oh well I hate Canada because they’ve ruined my summer” there are entire communities burned or under threat of burning. Indigenous communities primarily. Shut the fuck up.

The connection between football and domestic violence isn’t uncommon. A study shows that police receive increased calls reporting domestic violence every Sunday during football season [iii]. Researchers analyzed over 700 cities and counties using data from the National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) of police reports, revealing that these spikes are linked to teams losing a game [iii]. In fact, domestic violence incidents rise by about 10% on days when NFL games are played, usually occurring in family homes and most of the time affecting women [iii].  This shows that the outcomes of football games can have a real impact on people’s lives off the field. It’s important for fans, teams, and communities to recognize these patterns and work together to raise awareness and prevent domestic violence from happening, especially during football season.

NFL games bring people from all over the United States together to show their love for the game, creating an atmosphere where diverse cultur

Now that everyone is discussing Nolan's Odyssey movie, I feel like it's a good time to let non-Italians know that the production dumped plastic props into the Italian sea. Weirdly enough I could not find any article in English about it but it's a fucking problem nonetheless.

I might translate this article later today. This one was the most complete one, even in Italian news it's not talked about that much.

They dumped plastic skeletons in environmentally protected areas, against the literal contracts they had to sign to get the permits to film in environmentally protected areas. Like they not only did a bad ecological thing that freaked out some divers, they literally broke environmental protection laws and their contract with the Italian government

They also filmed in illegally occupied territories in western sahara

Top: in Donkey Kong Bananza, the elephants in the Tempest Layer are a community of weather forecasters. While at first this appears to be simply a deliberately odd combination, similarly to the zebra ice cream makers or snake sculptors found elsewhere in the game, this may actually be based on a real-world scientific fact about elephants.

Bottom: it was long suspected and finally confirmed in a 2014 study that, using a combination of not yet understood subtle signs in the environment, elephants are able to predict rainfall from 150 miles away and migrate towards it to increase chances of finding food and water. It is theorized that the mechanism of their detection involves their acute hearing and an ability to sense atmospheric pressure changes.

Whether this connection is deliberate or merely a remarkable coincidence is unknown.

What's your average number of sexual partners per year? Divide [the total number of people you've had sex with] by [the number of years since your first time]. (Defining "sex" here as "any consensual sexual contact with another person".)

Never had sex

Less than 0.5 partners a year

0.5 to .99 partners a year

1 to 1.49 partners a year

1.5 to 1.99 partners a year

2 to 4.9 partners a year

5 to 9.9 partners a year

10 to 14.9 partners a year

15 to 19.9 partners a year

20 partners a year or more

Too many partners to make even a rough guess
