Decentralized countries. 3D printers manufacturing anything. Biophotovaltic panels that grow in backyards to power homes. And then I read an article like this and I remember that a lot of other writers like me are reacting to our present dilemmas and troubles, and we probably grew up on the same kind of scifi stories so we most likely end up with the same solutions.

Don&#39;t the audience have other films to watch? Was there no other film coming up right after this one? (15-23 minutes is enough time for a short film or two!) And above all, what do the filmmakers be doing while everyone is clapping and cheering for them? I mean, no one has every figured out what to do while they sing for &#34;happy birthday to you&#34; and that lasts like 30 seconds. So many questions! 2025-09-04T08:09:52Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqszm7jwtcun3l9f3hxlckk6ue08es093z72ylc4ajtts0edsg5ezrgzyp85tsu6pth0vxvv7hjvr3z7adp770wuum53vmskclcw4ml6canv2ze50ye The #peertube instance is still down, with no communication from the admins, and yet I have been using links on that instance professionally, so it&#39;s a bit of a nightmare.
