  • What Graham Platner Said When a Trans Mainer Asked: 'Will You Stand Up for Me?'

  • Bullshit. A group of drunk Marines in a tattoo shop on shore leave is EXACTLY the sort of idiots that would point a a fat-looking pirate skull-crossbones on a sketchy tattoo shop wall and all get tattooed together.

    This and eating the red crayons are a core activity for ignorant young devil-dogs.

  • I am not a Mainer but I've donated to Platner's campaign because I believe we need voices like his. Susan Collins and Janet Mills are two sides of the same coin, in the same way that all the old 'establishment' Democrats are similar to their 'moderate' Republican counterparts

    Graham Platner is the right choice amongst the candidates in this race.

    We need to elect candidates like Kat Abu and Abigail Spanberger and Zach Dembo and Darren McAuly and Maura Sullivan and Maggie Goodlander and Deb Halland and many other good, earnest, qualified candidates.

    None of them are perfect candidates. None of them are perfect people.

    But they are better, and we have to hope we can all get better, be better and do better together over time.

    (disclaimer: unfortunately my real opinion is that we're actually totally fucking cooked as a country, and there's a solid chance that authoritarian fascism will be with us for a while --- longer than my lifetime. I will continue to participate in the ways I'm capable and willing, but it's probably futile)

  • It depends on the wavelength of the radio waves.

    This is visible in microwaves, where the wavelength is about 12cm, but the tiny holes of 1mm are small enough that zero (or super tiny?) radiation/radio/EM in that wavelength can pass through, but light (visible light that you can see) has a much, much smaller wavelength and passes just fine.

    So, you could say that a larger mesh (chain link fence?) of conductive material is also a faraday cage, but only affects things with a really large wavelength.

    thus, faraday cages have a variable effect, depending on their configuration.

  • Interesting. Apparently the Geddit app has been abandoned/unmaintained since 2 years ... Huh

  • Until reddit shut off the RSS feeds, Geddit (Android app RSS reader for reddit) was very useful to me.

    Allowed following of niche/particular subs without drama

    Unfortunately, many of those closely focused, well moderated and useful communities continue to exist only on reddit
