Idea: automated traffic enforcement cameras at every crossing, where the fines go to fund the ACLU and the public defender’s office.

There are two academic disciplines, computer science and sociology. Biology? Computer science. Physics? Computer science. Economics? Computer science. Computer Science? Actually, Sociology.

1-panel SMBC comic update. The panel shows a black and white photo with a gallery / museum styles description below it. The photos shows many silhouetted trees with a stark white background, and a bending trunk splitting the photo in half. The descriptions reads "From the Ansel Adams Dick Pics series (1953) // Gelatin silver print //Unsolicited gift of the artist"

To get ahead of the gender discourse: 1. In liberal-ish spaces, it's more common to hear shallow & reactionary dating opinions (w/out pushback) from women than from men. 2. Shallowness in *revealed* preferences is not especially gendered. 3. (1) can be annoying but has very few real consequences.

I keep seeing people say "fascism emerges out of unchecked capitalism/is the logical end state of capitalism" but none of them cares to explain why it gained power first in undercapitalized Italy instead of Britain or the US, far more capitalist countries.

I finally watched Project Hail Mary and ok, it was pretty good. Not the most visually inventive (and come on, amnesia?) but it's mostly about the buddy comedy which really works. So hear me out, Ryan Gosling and the Muppets next.

Three optics tubes for the SO-SATs under the sky,  Seven for the SO-LAT-lords in their halls of mirrors,  Nine for S4, doomed to die,  One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne  In the Land of L2 where the B-modes lie.

A drone-view of the Simons Observatory site in Chile, with the three Small Aperture Telescopes visible in the foreground as white tubes surrounded by circular screens. They are on a flat area among an othewise barren orange, rocky desert with several shipping containers and a few buildings around them. In the middle of the image is the Large Aperture Telescope building, which looks like a series of imbricated white bricks. There are desertic mountains in the background under a very blue sky.

All my non-EU friends doing a PhD had problems with Migrationsverket due to amendments to the aliens act passed by the previous S government. S was behind the curve in calling for an end to teen deportations. They are better than the alternative but not good news for immigrants.
