MapKnitter.org will be going offline at the end of the month due to lack of funds, which is very sad!
1000s of maps of environmental injustices people have made over the years

And also SpectralWorkbench.org too.
database of 200k+ community-contributed open source spectra.

Both will be archived on archive.org

It's really fucking hard and violent blow for environmental activism and community based open environmental investigation

in reply to Bi—zaar

of course. I have been getting increasingly familiar with public lab. I was not familiar with these specific projects but I think they seem very worthwhile.


Today’s “because we can”: powering antique telegraph equipment with a desk toy stirling engine. The engine produces about 400mA at 3v, which is just barely enough to actuate the voice coils on the receiver. If you listen carefully you can actually hear the engine slowing down as the load on the generator increases!

Sweeping climate bill pushes American energy to go green

Some good news. I'm hoping this legislation has some significant effect on our CO2-equivalent release rate.
in reply to tom grzyb

I am exceedingly happy about this. Maybe not so much for the scope of it (which is rather limited), but for the fact that we are finally starting to do something rather significant.



16, fucking 16, Not one or two but 16 kids died and no one talk about it. "oh, Russian! Killing Ukrainians, oh I'm sad". but no you are not sad about these kids, wow

Personally I think that if we want a change, we must have a huge movement against a problem by threatening governments all over the world, that’s how we can really make a change, social media is not enough and even outdoor movements may not work.

And yes that’s true Israel finds it hard by the help of a Al Jazeera, New York Times and … but still not enough.

It is a bigger issue with big a very big government.

in reply to JumpToSkyFree.

I get your point, but good luck with big gov stand with you. So only option left is people unit and we thank god already united, if we do what's in your point of view we will be screwed because we will say alright no gov will stand with us, we give up. So put yourself in their shoes, no big gov with you will you fight and stand for your home or let thief steal it because the police is busy

I totally understand that. I had a dagger from my grandfather. Original WWII stuff, but my mother got rid of it when I was away "'because it was dangerous". 🙁
Then there was my Bunya Pine I'd planted out in the back yard, that also ended up mysteriously gone when I was living in Toowoomba.
in reply to Deborah Pickett (inactive)

I'm mostly bitter about it because I wasn't involved in the decision, it just happened while I wasn't there. This was a bit of a recurring theme with the disposal of some of my stuff, and I'm still a bit sensitive about it.


"Our newly published research found backyard hens’ eggs contain, on average, more than 40 times the lead levels of commercially produced eggs. Almost one in two hens in our Sydney study had significant lead levels in their blood. Similarly, about half the eggs analysed contained lead at levels that may pose a health concern for consumers."

I saw that the other day. Definitely more of a problem in the suburbs.
in reply to David de Groot 𓆉

It's a problem anywhere with car traffic. Farms close to highways have a higher lead contamination than other farms. Even now, 30-something years after leaded fuel has been banned.


Hmmm, I ran an macOS 12.5 update today, and sometime later, I noticed this (moveable) widget on screen. The text changes from Wake Up to Sleep when clicked.

WTF is it? No other 12.5 machine I've used has a microphone widget. Is it some other app running? Anyone seen it before?

(Google image search was no help whatsoever) .

in reply to David de Groot 𓆉

Mystery solved. It was the Voice Control feature of macOS. No idea how I managed to accidentally turn it on.

"Doctors Against Oz" Launch Campaign Denouncing GOP Candidate as a 'Quack'


commondreams.org/news/2022/08/…

... but we already knew that.

in reply to tom grzyb

... oh. The doctors also condemned Oz's comparison of vaccine mandates "to forced sterilization and lobotomies" and his claim that vaccines against Covid-19 are not "true" vaccines, as well as his defense of discredited Covid-19 treatments like hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin.

Judge Rules Walgreens 'Substantially Contributed' to San Francisco Opioid Crisis


commondreams.org/news/2022/08/…

"Walgreens pharmacies in San Francisco dispensed hundreds of thousands of red-flag opioid prescriptions without performing adequate due diligence,"

in reply to tom grzyb

"Walgreens has hidden, covered up, and run from the truth throughout the entirety of this five-year litigation."
in reply to tom grzyb

Between 2006 and 2020, Walgreens distributed more than 100 million prescription opioid pills to pharmacies in San Francisco while failing to take actions to identify suspicious prescriptions or prevent their illegal and harmful use.

Exactly. Threats of violence are more than a "red flag".
