@[url=https://freeatlantis.com/users/DrFell]DrFell (Disgruntled Citizen)[/url] @[url=https://noauthority.social/users/magicalthinking]🌈Magical Thinking[/url] Our recent evolution involved a long period of scarcity and small clans and we adapted to that in ways that may have been appropriate in fact meant our survival in that era.
Now we live in an era were global travel is trivial, where we've developed modern technologies that require resourced around the world, and we are in danger of running out of some of those resources if we don't create a circular economy and re-use them efficiently.
Our level of interdependence today is not compatible with our antique genetics and we can't evolve our genetics fast enough to adapt and avoid self destruction.
But we've got a secret weapon, our cerebellum, this part of our brain which permits higher reasoning allows near term changes in our behavior if we choose to invoke it.
But genetics is automatic, the constructive uses of the areas of higher intelligence we are endowed with are manual, using them requires the invocation of agency. With that comes freedom but also responsibility.
I want that, and so choose to do so.. Do you?,

What people don't understand is that concentration of capital is necessary to create factories the means of production and for efficient farming, and that automatic adjustment of supply and demand works better than state quotas. Capitalism does not result in an equal distribution of wealth, communism results in everyone being impoverished and starving to death.

@[url=https://noauthority.social/users/SirHendrick]SirHendrick[/url] When God was asked his name he replied, "I am that I am", he didn't reply Allah, Jehova or JHWH, just I am that I am, and it's difficult for me to comprehend a God overseeing more than 2 trillion galaxies in the visible universe and quite possibly an infinite number beyond that, each of which contains on average 600 billion stars, and of those stars nearly each has a planet, and 1-in-6 to 1-in-10 a planet in the habitable zone, and this data considering our current ability to find planets is biased to large planets around small stars so can't find Earth like planets around G-class stars, but of those maybe 1-in-1000 are capable of advanced life, this is still around 10^20 planets with intelligent life and again that's just the visible universe, the idea of such a God favoring one particularly savage tribe is for me untenable, so no I don't believe he favors Israel genociding it's neighbors, that said, I don't personally see the reason to extend blame to all people holding a particular religious belief because one particularly badly behaving country practices those beliefs. My take is we have enough real problems in this world not to imagine more so I am not willing to extend the bad behavior of Israel to all Jews everywhere or even all Jews within Israel, just as I am not willing to extend the bad behavior of some Muslims to all those who have Islam as their faith, nor am I willing to extend the bad behavior of a nations leaders to all of it's members, I sure as hell do not approve of many things our government does. I try not to fall victim to oversimplified generalizations, I know they are easy but I am not intellectually lazy and I feel moral responsibility towards not being so. You of course can make your own choices and if not buying Dell is one of them more power to you, I've got a 26 year old Dell desktop still working and a well behaved Dell laptop.

Given that we need new energy sources, in the short term molten salt reactors burning existing actinide waste or thorium can provide it, in the long term fusion, but fusion requires complex calculations that only a large data center can accommodate.

I agree as much autonomy as possible is best, but also immediacy, the ability to narrow the input immediately when it's overloading the brains ability to filter it. I realize sensory overload is not just audible but that's one channel you can have immediate effective and autonomous control over leaving more mental bandwidth to address the remainder.

By the same token you can't expect someone else to psychically anticipate your needs. Maybe you could prepare a hand-written note, obviously you can write as attested by the post above, and by writing it advance you don't have to be functional to write it at the time beyond just handing it to them. Then again you could invest in a 50 cent pair of ear plugs and just stay where you are.

Since it's a physical device you have to have on you it can't be intercepted. The real idea behind 2FA is something you KNOW and something you HAVE, mail/text does not provide this security, a Yubikey does.

I know the popular view of God is either an old man with white robes and a long beard or a younger hippie white dude, neither of which make sense to me, in fact the idea of sexuality in a God makes little sense to me, why would a being that has existed forever and will exist forever have a need for reproductive hardware? So I don't know what God is, but I consider possibilities like the sum of all consciousness and we as something like rain drops that separate from the ocean of consciousness, go out learn, live out our lives, and then return to the ocean and bring that experience with us. But really I don't have a solid model, I do believe that whatever God is, God is loving because clearly God wants that of us. But I don't find any literally coherent mythology, I find nuggets of useful truths.

That said, I've arrived at my view as a way to rectify seeming incompatibilities between macro physicality and quantum physics along with personal out of body experiences in which I've been able to retrieve remote and future information accurately.

It speaks of Jesus speaking the world into existence, but without atmosphere there is no literal speech so what is meant by this? I think thought. And this fits by general belief that the material world view that consciousness is an epiphenomena is backwards, I believe consciousness -> information -> energy -> matter.

When someone distributes all production equally, people are disincentivized and stop producing. The result is equal abject poverty and starvation.

@[url=https://zirk.us/users/ChrisMayLA6]Emeritus Prof Christopher May[/url] If, rather than getting REAL new energy sources in place, we just cut ourselves off from fossil fuels, leave the poor to freeze to death, we will eventually run out of economically retrievable fossil fuels, we will then be unable to power the farm machinery that grows our food or the trucks that move it to stores. Instead of being concerned about a one or two degree thermal change we ought to be being concerned about starving to death and pursuing technologies that actually have the potential to provide base load energy at scale such as molten salt breeder reactors, controlled hydrogen fusion, maser drilled geo-thermal, etc. In order to pursue these things we need a robust enough economy to do so and if we make fossil fuels artificially expensive we won't able to.

@[url=https://noauthority.social/users/Killer_Mule]Killer*Mule[/url] Aside from being a safe energy source, a thorium waste sink, we should be building molten salt breeders because at present they are the only working technology that can scale to the amount needed to replace fossil fuels. If we don't have a working alternative in place before the fossil fuels that are economically extractable exhaust, we all starve, so regardless of what you think about global warming this is an issue we need to address. Lastly molten salt breeder reactors would allow us to turn the long term actinides in nuclear waste into fuel, leaving only short term fission products which only have to be kept from the environment for 300 years or so and not the 100,000 to 1,000,000 years that actinides require.

[center][color=red][size=30]Federated Services[/size][/color][/center]
[color=darkblue]Federated Services are services which many instances form a network to provide a greater whole than the sum of their parts, each participant in the Fediverse is an “instance”. A message or other item made available on one instance is visible and available on other instances.[/color]
[color=darkblue]We make these services available to all people who do not abuse it in order to promote the values of Free Speech, and those of the United States Constitution First Amendment. A free republic is not possible without free speech and commercial mainstream media do not provide it. We also get some advertisement benefit from hosting these, it is our hope that people who see how fast and responsible our services are will decide to do hosting or use other paid services here.[/color]
[color=darkblue]There are numerous federated services available, we offer Macrobloging platform Friendica, Hubzilla; Microbloging services Mastodon, a federated search engine, Yacy, and a federated cloud service, Nextcloud.[/color]
[b][size=18][color=darkblue]Macroblogging Services[/color][/size][/b]
[color=darkblue]These platforms support long‑form posts, similar to Facebook or blogs. They are ideal for:[/color]
[list]
[*][color=darkblue]Fiction and poetry[/color]
[*][color=darkblue]Technical papers and news[/color]
[*][color=darkblue]Social commentary and discussion[/color]
[/list]
[color=darkblue]Microbloging services allow only short form posts similar in format to Twitter. While you can link to larger articles elsewhere, you have a relatively short character limit and so can not post them directly.[/color]
[color=darkblue]Censorship, is handled much different on the fediverse than on mainstream media like Twitter or Facebook. On the fediverse, each individual instance is responsible for content available on that instance, but does not censor the rest of the network. Thus if you find the rules of one instance too constraining you can move to another.[/color]
[color=darkblue]Federated search engines are analogous to federated message systems in that each instance chooses what portion of the internet it wants to crawl. When you enter a search term, the local instance queries all of the federated instances, collates and sorts the results and presents them to you. As with messages, each instance can have it’s own censorship policies but no one instance can censor the enti
re network.[/color]
[color=darkblue]Given the wild-west nature of the fediverse, it is probably not suitable for children under 14, and you’re guaranteed to find some material that will offend virtually everyone. With federated search engines, material that is inappropriate will usually be flagged sensitive or nsfw (not safe for work) so as long as you don’t expand material marked as such, you can avoid this sort of material. Ther
e are occasionally people who violate these rules, we do our best to remove such individuals none the less some will get through.[/color]
We offer the following federated services:
[b][url=https://friendica.eskimo.com/]Friendica.Eskimo.Com[/url][/b]
[b][color=darkred]Friendica[/color][/b] is a decentralized long format macrobloging message network. It is similar in format to facebook however there is no centralized censorship. Also, it is able to federate with all other federated message systems which use ActivityPub protocol and also we have extensions that allow it to speak to several other networks via other protocols.
[b][url=https://hubzilla.eskimo.com]Hubzilla.Eskimo.Com[/url][/b]
[b][color=darkred]Hubzilla[/color][/b] is similar in message format to Friendica in that it allows long posts. However, it specializes in it’s ability to provide connectivity to multiple protocols and so we include it in our mix of federated services primarily for the better connectivity it offers. Hubzilla provides a great deal of interoperability between many networks though ActivityPub is still it’s prim
ary protocol. Hubzilla gives you a greater degree of control over privacy than some of the other networks. You can create private channels that are served between hubzilla instances and other compatible instances.
[b][url=https://mastodon.eskimo.com/]Mastodon.Eskimo.Com[/url][/b]
[b][size=18][color=darkblue]Microblogging Services[/color][/size][/b]
[color=darkblue]These platforms support short‑form updates, similar to Twitter. They are best suited for:[/color]
[list]
[*][color=darkblue]Quick news flashes and status updates[/color]
[*][color=darkblue]Links to longer articles or media[/color]
[*][color=darkblue]Casual conversation and rapid interaction[/color]
[/list]
[color=darkblue]Posts are limited in length (e.g., 500 characters on Mastodon), which encourages brevity and immediacy. Longer posts from other federated platforms appear as previews with links back to the source.[/color]
[b][url=https://nextcloud.eskimo.com/]NextCloud.Eskimo.Com[/url][/b]
[b][color=darkred]Nextcloud[/color][/b] If you are a customer of Eskimo North, your login credentials will work without a domain extension to access Nextcloud. If you are not a customer you can apply for a Nextcloud account using your choice of login and password, in this case the login should include your originating network. Some features require an Eskimo North shell account to take full advantage of.
[b][url=https://pixelfed.eskimo.com/]Pixelfed.Eskimo.Com[/url][/b]
[b][color=darkred]Pixelfed[/color][/b] is a federated pixel gallery. A place where you can share your photos to the widest audience possible, and you can view what others have shared. We now have this site also properly federated so any images you share can be viewed on any other Fediverse site by users who follow you, and you can view images posted by anyone on any fediverse site whom you follow.
[b][url=https://yacy.eskimo.com/]Yacy.Eskimo.Com[/url][/b]
[b][color=darkred]Yacy[/color][/b] is a federated search engine. There are several thousand instances on the Internet. Each instances crawls whatever portion of the web the administrator requested. It is also possible for the administrator of a site with relatively few resources to request a larger site to do crawls on their behalf. Unfortunately, it does not provide a method for an end user to initiate a crawl,
but if you send e-mail to support@eskimo.com and request a crawl, we will initiate a crawl on your behalf.
