As I noted in my patch message and in the previous post, behavior gets a li’l weird when someone leaves mml-enable-flowed on (the default!) but forgets to turn on use-hard-newlines (not the default! And since it’s buffer local, it needs to be turned on every single time, for example with a hook).

So with these two settings kept at their defaults, separate paragraphs will get flowed together with my patch! So I sent a new version of the patch to the same #71017 thread that’ll auto-harden according to markdown semantics as a dwimmy fallback.

Cherries!

Democracy Now are being lauded in the video in case you missed that 🤷🏻‍♀️

I like Chris Hayes’ take as clipped in this video 43 minutes in:

The way that so many prominent voices have focused so exclusively on colleges feels honestly a bit decadent to me. Like we’re doing a paper doll version of conflict because the actual reality of what’s happening in Gaza is so horrific, unceasing, and high-stakes, it’s more enjoyable to argue about what college kids are doing than to confront the human misery and destruction that’s happening in the actual conflict that is, of course, the source of these protests. What seems to be most worth debating isn’t campus speech but whether the US government should contine to fund and support an Israeli war in Gaza that has pushed more than a million people to the brink of famine. A war that has damaged half of the buildings in Gaza. A war that has failed to bring home most of the hostages held by Hamas, that has in fact lead to the death of some those hostages.

This is a good video, thanks.
I’m not all onboard with the conclusions: “YouTube & TikTok good” (I believe they’re overall bad. Fund Peertube.) and “Socialist sentiment is growing” (I believe the overton window has been slipping & skipping to the right for decades now.)

Meanwhile the Free and Open Source community have holy wars over text editors.

Is that still going on? I thought Emacs ruled supreme. Every monarchy a conquered sovereignity.

It’s so weird that they didn’t do this when they introduced the Primaris. Perfect in-universe opportunity.

But the Stormcast Eternals fixed it so 🤷🏻‍♀️

This is great, makes me happy to hear!

@flumph @dnd

Sweden has these. But I can’t speak to how good or bad they are because I’ve never lived in one for more than a week or so at a time. I grew up out in the boonies.

As for the video, I like that it (unlike way too many of these video essays) doesn’t bury the lede; he’s up front about his perspective and then spend the rest of the video elaborating and explaining why. That’s an oasis in the desert of “mysterious, let me hold you in suspense for the lede” style videos we see too many of. I get really distracted by his music, though. I can’t fully listen to what he has to say since I get so into the heartbreakingly depressive synth pads.

Elves are of a culture that’s long familiar with magic yet respects magic and its ways.

@Shkshkshk @dnd

There’s a lot of extreme content on the Fediverse (such as harassment).

Not sure. There’s a lot of kinda creepy stuff on here 😰

@thorbot

The wrong thing was that “It doesn’t matter what the US does” when the US is exceptionally culpable on the demand side, the drill side, and the policy side.

And looking at per capita, consumtion based, the US is ten times as bad as China. US: 20 tons per person. China: 2 tons. I think the world average is 4t.

China still needs to cut down because 2 tons is a lot more than what is OK but holy shit saying

But the problem is, even if all of the US came together and stopped 100% of our emissions, China would still continue to pump out 90% of the world emissions

is the wrongest thing I’ve ever heard. There are very few countries on this planet who arr doing worse than the US:

Oh, that is wonderful!

Yeah, I’ve been reading Nick Bentley, he’s like been wary of even simple abstracts, let alone a full euro. I’m still gonna cut down overall (not buying new hardware is better than buying harm-reduced hardware) but I’m glad they’re trying to harm-reduce! 👍🏻
Makes me more interested in the game.

@boardgames

I guess I see pandemics as still an unsolved and dangerous issue, although of course not as bad and important as climate change is, so I still have a hard time seeing the difference.

I didn’t mean to rain on your parade and I hope you end up enjoying the game.👍🏻

For me, buying new board games is something that’s riddled with climate guilt. It’s one of my own biggest footprint leaks. And this theme, I feel, would remind me everytime I’m playing the game about that. Which I guess is a good thing.

I already have nine co-op games so I’m set for a while*. If peeps in my part of the world need to fill up seats for Daybreak I’d be willing to give it a spin on someone else’s copy. 🫡
Leacock has made some great games.

*: Actually I kind of needed this thread because I’ve been eyeing Unfathomable today but I guess I don’t need a tenth coop game right now. This is the irony of Daybreak’s theme—it’s meant to inspire the fight against climate change and as such it reminds me to not buy games much more than a plastic pile like Unfathomable can.

@boardgames

Climate change has the same “going through it in real life” trait as Pandemic has.

@boardgames

It’s awesome!

YouTube only recently started with them 🤷🏻‍♀️
