Yo @startrek, tell me something?

Do exist in the universe? Does any whatsoever exist in the Star Trek universe?

Because, if not, then it means there are no Tucker Carlsons and no Jon Stewarts, and no John Olivers in that universe. Probably because nothing needs internal investigations in that society as a whole!

And that frankly blows my mind... 🤯

In Deep Space 9, Jake Sisko (the station commander’s son) is a journalist for the Federation News Service. There’s a good episode where he ends up in a war zone and the story covers cowardice and PTSD.

Considering how LD canonized in universe conspiracy theories like “Worf 359 was an inside job” I would imagine there are some trashy tabloids

Dang it. I always forget the questions I need to post during certain hours because the academics here mostly seem to be online during those hours.

I wish there were an built-in scheduling tool here for situations like this.

@academicchatter I'm thinking anti-ableist, anti-racist, anti-sexist, etc.

Actual inclusive as possible for us to achieve online conference-planning. Pushing the date far enough out that we can do this without stressing the hell out and with enough time to fundraise for ASL interpreters, captioning, etc.

How capitalism violates the most boring and obvious principle of justice and treats people like things - "Inalienable Rights: Part I The Basic Argument"

https://www.ellerman.org/inalienable-rights-part-i-the-basic-argument/

Capitalism violates the principle that legal and de facto responsibility should match in the employer-employee contract.

It seems deeply wrong and ironic that, as an English Teacher, I find World Book Day one of the most awful days of the year in school - and yet...

@YLee Yes and yes - and that all sounds super noble and admirable. In reality, it becomes an expensive competitive fancy dress comp where staff and students dress as entirely non-book related characters (films/superheroes etc.) and it does nothing to encourage a genuine love of reading. You want your child to read? Buy them a book! @bookstodon @edutooters

I wasn't aware of the cosplay aspect to it. Reading is probably a little too quiet and internal for modern society. There has to be some lavish, external (read: Instagram-worthy) display to get people interested.

I released my first game on Steam and got rid of impostor syndrome!

My first game Mushy Score is out on Steam! I have been creating games since I was a child but never felt like a real game dev. Now I finally have a game that I can show to other people.

Mushy Score is a 2D Roguelike where you fight against endless waves of enemies. Collect points and try to get a high score! I am super exited for the release !

Just bought and played it and had a lot of fun! I love the frequent powerups and the variety of the monsters. The first time I saw the toad was truly terrifying! Lol. I'd love to see some kind of powerup that helps with arial enemies. Maybe the plants can shoot upwards, too? Or you can? Or a flying plant? Or a second bullet that goes up at 45 degrees? Anyway, well worth the super low asking price. Looking forward to playing more! It works perfect on the , too!

The marketing fluff doesn’t, but they actually did increase upload speeds. Mine went from 10 to 20 up. And here is the DSL reports forum thread from when this round started.

Also, they are testing larger increases. I could get 100 up today, if I had a supported modem.

So, check your actual plan and modem to see what you have now.

None that article, but check my other reply and check your plan. You may be pleased, I was.

Decent base pay, a fair amount of pto, and a stellar 401k match are my absolute requirements. My wants are unnecessary as I’ll put up with a lot if my needs are met.

Although in my field this was all achieved through the power of a union.

Simply put, my family is broke until March due to two unexpected bills. We have no food & no car, so it's hard to get anything here to begin with.
I'm trying to get $40 so we can eat tonight. Thank you for reading, hope you're doing well. 💞

This is also the advantage of public broadcasting - they can put more emphasis on that sort of thing without worrying about profit.

All of which is to say, support your public broadcasters, people!
