this article made me wanna hurl.

Until we figure out the storage problem in order to get solar working, nuclear is the only realistic way of replacing coal which has much more negative consequences. I don’t like it, but as it stands it is the lesser of two evils.

The services I think is best suited for federation next in my opinion is Stack Overflow / Stack Exchange. It’s a site aimed at programmers, so a larger percentage of the target userbase cares about FOSS and open standards. It has shit tons of moderation problems which SO is trying to solve by democratizing itself to some extent via meta stack exchange and the SO elections and surveys, but true democratization by letting people hosts their own instances of SO seems infintely superior to their attempts. Being able to have different SO instances cater towards different audiances, a more beginner friendly SO, an SO that really wants to avoid redundant questions, etc. Also having a way in which multiple different qa sites can talk to each other would make finding solutions so much easier. IDK it seems like such a no brainer to me.

Agreed, but justice boners are dangerous. That’s why we have cops idolizing the punisher. Violence is only justified when it has a tangible positive effect imo. I enjoy seeing justice get served as much as the next guy but retribution for retribution’s sake is not a good thing. Utilitarian justice FTW.

I think the deplatforming was a lot more effective than the punch. I heard more about him after getting punched then ever before or after.

Punching them in person helps their cause, and allows the to cry fowl. Counter protesting, and violence in self defence is a better rule of thumb imo.
