Last Notes npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 I looked into it and I think is was more of a painting. A vile lie of a painting but not a photo. npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 Here's a citation from Wikipedia about Moreno on Trump. Sounds pretty hypocritical to me. A lot like Collins: npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 What do you think of Susan Collins voting against Blanche? Is she on our side now? I think she is on our side now about as much as Moreno is. npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 Thank you. It comes up now. npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 That link yields a page cannot be found for me so I'm going to hold on to my apology for now. npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 I did know what this was referring to so I looked it up: npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 To get a ballpark figure on this, there are four statues being gilded for a cost of about $5 million. So $1.25 million per statue. That's a lot. npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 Maybe all the wars hurting the economies of the world makes people realize that peace is more profitable than war now. npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 At 120F air temp in bright sunshine don't the roads start to melt? npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 File this one under how fast can the US go backwards. npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 I keep it simple: npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 Also look at what they didn't do during the Biden admin. npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 If you believe in data, autonomous cars are by far safer than human drivers. Not perfect though. npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 Don't panic... npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 Is that an Infinite Improbability Drive? npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 I had an AI generated avatar for a while but when my 13 year old artist daughter found out she immediately made me change to my current one she drew in like 30 seconds. Anything human is better than AI she said. npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 I used to believe that in my country, the US, we had free speech but recently I think twice about saying anything negative about our new God king. npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 The people who went on and on about the evils of "The Deep State" created a world class one as soon as they came into power. npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 #uspol npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 Just crazy stuff. npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 I heard an interesting question posed about multigenerational ark ships. After generations of living comfortably on the ark and having developed a strong ark culture why would they ever want to get off the ship when they arrived? npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 I'm going to miss the FDA when it's gone. npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 In a way I agree but what else would you call it? I'm drawing a blank on anything that sounds better. npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 Nice pics. npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 Here are some more recent comments by Ms Cheney: npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 A lot of the Trump supporters that like Trump because they want a dictator see an up and coming Hitler in Mr Vance. Plus he is as prolific a lair as Trump and better at it in some weird way. npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 Look the bottom left of the page in a browser and there is an About for your server (not the About for Mastodon). At the bottom there should be a Moderated section. That will list what your instance is doing block-wise to those other servers. npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 My thought for today: npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 One of my 12 year old twins is aspiring to be an artist. She absolutely hates AI art. I have been watching some of these AI Panavision trailers that are all over YouTube. She yells at me when I do. I watched a YouTube on how they are made and it is disturbingly easy. But clearly ripping off others' IP. One of my favorite movies is The Fifth Element. Here is one of the AI trailers of it. npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 The article I originally read was much gloomier than the ones I found looking for it but these have some good information: npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 I was talking about intentionally using them as a weapon. The Kessler effect I think is more unintentional (but still very possible). npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 This thread put a troubling thought in my head. Controlling the most widely used internet connection is power but couldn't a constellation of so many satellites be a weapon? Send 100 of them after a rival's low earth sat. One should be able to crash into it. You could arrange the satellites so that other launches would likely not make it past the "wall" of Starlinks. npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 I really like the music video "You need to calm down" npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 I don't know much about this so I did a little Googling npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 Toys are fun. npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 I think another thing to consider is that changing the top ticket now will make the dems look weak and hurt down ballot candidates. npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 My apologies if that came across that way. Good presidents can lose re-election. npub1jnr50vzs7q3hgkxvkl83l02mrfu39mjn7m85996gc3c526hs6jcqg6lutc Hiker Geek 🌲💻🌲 I just stepped foot into the Rod Serling rabbit hole. I was wondering what he did besides Twilight Zone and Night Gallery.
