cool project that one could try to replicate DIY-style: use manhole covers (or ther urban surfaces) to print t-shirts and fabrics

@jjg oh yeah definitely...there are many ongoing efforts in trying to preserve old software and hardware by people passionate in archiving and retro computing... yet it feels like a loss game at the right time-scale

the 17th issue of The Funambulist is on "the use of infrastructure (railroad, highways, pipelines, canals, land reclamation, etc.) as a political weapon"

"Weaponized Infrastructure"
https://thefunambulist.net/magazine/weaponized-infrastructure

"gobbledygook"

@jjg yeah, and the fragility of the 'digital' both in terms of infrastructure and quality/quantity of information is kind of underestimated. this article on the topic is very interesting too https://medium.com/@hautepop/digital-dust-356172db322f

interesting points in favor of preserving physical archives

@Fritillaria2 thanks :)

@noiob by all means why not, competition in implementing customization tools that protect potentially vulnerable users is only positive

@noiob @er1n I agree that they can be improved upon, but with current UX I personally find their use as welcomed and as the best practice

@noiob @er1n I guess the point is that some people get the same reactions that you get for lewd/fetish posts from other topics as well, like food or violence descriptions, which makes the cws useful.. but the cw tool could be improved by seeing it more as a topic description/introduction and then having selective keyword mutes

@noiob @er1n this could be easily customized with opt-in option to leave them open by default, like on Mastalab

"It would serve us to consider alternatives to such a limited vision of community life online. For original tech pioneers such as Stacy, success was never about a successful exit, but rather the sustained, long-term guardianship of a community of users. Now more than ever, they should be regarded as the greatest resource in the world."

@polymerwitch there was also one a while ago on migrants towards the EU, and how the collaboration between Italian and Libyan authorities is worsening the conditions of those who try to cross the Mediterranean. different continents, same issue, same horrors
