In my experience, when men in a man-centric industry find a competent woman, that's usually enough to earn respect and they find success. If they're also socially savvy enough to coexist with men without making things weird, that's a huge bonus.
The total yield of all nuclear weapons in the world's arsenals is estimated to be in the range of 4,000 to 4,500 megatons of TNT equivalent.
The asteroid that is believed to have caused the extinction of the dinosaurs, is estimated to have had a yield of around 100 teratons of TNT, 22,000 times more.
We're actually tiny in the face of creation. Even our greatest works are trivial.

In space, hydrocarbons are relatively plentiful. For example, Saturn's moon Titan has hydrocarbon lakes.
So hypothetically, let's say we could use those hydrocarbons and convert them into glucose.
At that point, you could substantially sustain yourself on space rocks that have never before been a part of a living creature.
I dunno why but I thought that was an interesting thought.

tbf, when someone lies about so much for so long people just start to assume everything they say is a lie even when it's true.
Freedom to say something everyone else agrees with isn't that valuable (it was never going to be censored anyway), freedom to say something that everyone disagrees with is incredibly valuable.
Forget left and right for a minute, in a lot of ways our culture has become incredibly conservative. Gen z is following a playbook followed by the millennials which was a playbook largely followed by Gen x which was a playbook written by the baby boomers. Some of the top properties in Media were created generations ago, depending on just how young you are, it might have been made by your great-great-grandfathers generation.
So a lot of the things that we end up seeing on the unrestricted internet are people trying to figure out a new way of being that isn't the ideology of our grandparents. For some people that means trying to return to the 1920s. For some people it means trying to return to the 1820s. For other people it means a completely and different path forward. Many of these things are considered taboo and we can't even talk about them on the mainstream internet because the mainstream Internet is conservative and will only allow the current orthodoxy to be discussed.
From that point of view, something like the new Scooby-Doo Velma remake is the perfect example. You take a property from 50 years ago, something where everyone who originally worked on it is probably dead of old age, and implement into it every single piece of the current cultural orthodoxy.
This isn't unprecedented. In the middle ages, the epic poem Beowulf survived but was partially rewritten to include references to Christianity, because that was the only way such an ancient work would be allowed to continue being disseminated.

When the regimes official stance is that they're not going to help, why pull out all the stops for the regime?
Got my relay all up and running...... and then forgot to run systemctl enable nostr so when the server rebooted on routine maintenance the relay stopped working. D'oh!
Oh well, fixed now.

One thing: stress is healthy and useful and important, but chronic stress is unhealthy and dangerous and unproductive.
You miss 100% of the shots you don't take (But be careful because if you're indiscriminate then you might score on your own net)
I played with it on a couple phones but the phones weren't powerful enough to keep up with a modern OS. That being said, it looks to me like gnu/linux on mobile is the next big thing.
It's sort of sad that Anime keeps winning so hard.
It feels like when the Arabs maintained copies of ancient Greek treatises and built on the knowledge during the dark ages such that when Europe finally caught back up they were able to regain the knowledge they lost after the fall of the western roman empire.
How long will this cultural dark age last?
