  • Funnily enough, porn is sort of the canary in the coalmine for free speech. Their use of banning it will be through defining what is and is not obscene. If they can get a case run up to the supreme court, who then confirm that this self expression is obscene, that opens the flood gates for them to freely define what self expression is obscene and ban it or send people to jail.

    From there it’s a small step to calling something like a dissenting political opinion obscene.



  • Your 3d printer doesn’t have other utilities to accommodate. The printing is basically just the walls. Every other utility (Power, water, sanitary, HVAC, foundations, windows, doors, metal fabrications, networking etc) are all still done by people, all made with options made by other manufacturers.

    Your printer also uses quick setting thermoplastic, not a concrete slurry that needs to set over the course of days instead of fractions of a second.

    This and typical FDM printing are related, but truths about printing out a plastic trinket don’t necessarily translate to large concrete structures.






  • I mean, they exhausted all their options over the last 21 years and were told in 2018 they should get ready to depart. They then stayed another 4 years anyways after they exhausted all their options and knew if it was going to be enforced they were going to be deported.

    The only reason they can claim about raising a family is specifically because the system gave them an huge amount of time to sort things out. But that doesn’t mean the time is, or should be, indefinite.

    For all the people literally being grabbed off the streets for a traffic ticket or an op ed article, a couple being given 21 years of litigation and almost 40 years of time here to sort out their status before ignoring the unfavorable outcome doesn’t sound like this just dropped out of the sky.





  • Did you read the article or watch the video?

    Of course deserts have low humidity, but there are areas where in the early morning winds from off shore bring in humid air for a small period of the day. This can be harvested now with nets, although the article and video cover using electrified mesh to increase the yield.

    If you look up for harvesting the first photo in the link is from a desert in Chile. It’s been studied since the late 60’s.



  • DIY juice is easy to make and takes very little experience. Recipes are available online and you mix by weight. It does take some safety precautions as nicotine concentrate is very poisonous, but if you don’t want nic all you need is PG, VG, and flavoring.

    I started DIYing years ago and never looked back. The only large initial cost is the nicotine, which you buy in concentrate, but the overall cost when you make your juice is cheap as hell. The rate I go through it I have decades of nicotine and my cost per ml is ~6 cents. Most of that cost is the nicotine.
