I'm a climate scientist by trade. Interested in interesting things. Ecology, complexity, politics, social change, music.

  • Sure, but I don't think union power comes from the government... (Obviously the government influences how easy it is to organise, but they aren't the drivers)

  • I've been wondering if that's gonna turn around, given all the wins in the US over the last few years (John Deere, Starbucks, Amazon)

  • How close have you ever been to a lightning strike, or related situation caused by a lightning strike?

  • In a tent 10m from a tree that got struck directly - some bark blew off it. I was bending over at the waist to pick something off the floor and involuntarily jumped immediately. My memory is that I jumped before I could have had time to react, so I think the electrical field made my muscles spasm which made me jump. Not sure if that's possible or not though.

  • I hate how everything about this is makes sense including the fact that if Nazis made a time machine it would just move forward through time at a rate of one day per day.

  • Mastodon CEO steps down as the social network restructures

    Jump

  • Right, but I mean, the platform was originally designed without them in mind, and there's no real reason why every piece of software needs to have every piece of functionality.. I'm can see why they wouldn't be prioritising it

    I suspect I would love it if groups were in mastodon, but I'm not entirely sure it won't backfire in some horrendous way (this is social media after all)

  • "This kind of thing" being big picture dynamics of how to run a social media project.

    I've also had a mastodon PR stall, but I think they get so many, many with competing demands, and have so few staff, that it's not really surprising that it's a bit mess on that front...

  • That first post is very good. I really appreciate the way he's handled the first 10 years, and I hope he has fun doing whatever he does next.

  • Eugen has always seemed pretty clear-eyed about this kind of thing.

  • My GF gave me one afternoon to fix this, what do i do

  • I think OP is saying that they have an old 3d printer that they made/love, and their spouse got them a new (better, nicer looking, but less sentimental) 3d printer.

  • Fair! Definitely wouldn't have complained, but I'm a different person :)

  • Please help me under stand my spouse's gift and their hurt

    Jump

  • Yes, and:

    "For my birthday, my spouse got me a nicer newer expensive version of a thing I already have."

    Seems clear that the gift was a replacement printer?

  • Please help me under stand my spouse's gift and their hurt

    Jump

  • Agree, and I said as much in a separate comment. We also don't know anything about the delivery of the gift giver, either though..

  • "The one I have was given to me by my mother in law, whom I adore. It’s sentimental. ... it was a kit and I had to build myself. I loved it. It’s perfect for me. "

    It's right there in the OP
