@Midnitte Waste handling has me curious as well.

@Lo@kbin.social @fruitleatherpostcard Either under the Artemis Accords or the Moon Treaty.

@ShaunaTheDead You never know with what we are finding today, but it is possible we wouldn’t even understand it if it was:
kurzgesagt did a nice little overview of this: https://youtu.be/rhFK5_Nx9xY?si=5cr0miFH0iUKhtFb&t=412

@FuzzyLeonardo The Illudium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator

@stopthatgirl7 This seems like quite the lift and shift. Moving to a new platform would definitely split their user based. I would also thin that any form of aggressive defederation would split their user base as well. From what I can tell, there are not many (if any) fediverse platforms that have the level of moderation tools they they are looking for.

Unfortunately, It just looks like they are in a tight spot. One the could make or break that community.

Good ol’ @ernest … always on top of things. Thank you, sir!!

@Haui

I have not noticed many spammers here on kbin. But, when I do, the way I handle it is:

1. Reduce/Report.
2. Do I see the same user posting spam, block user.
3. Does it seem to come from the same domain, block domain.

@idoubtit And it is not even October, yet!!

@stopthatgirl7 That seems really low. The Roanoke colony in the U.S. had around 120 people with access to food, water, and shelter on Earth and still vanished. I know that is not a 1:1 comparison, but the point is that I would think that a Mars colony would be 10x more difficult. But, I guess we will never know until we try.

TIL: There was something called Google Flights.

@waspentalive Weird. Shows up just fine for me. I have never seen a captcha on archive.is. But here is the original, but it is paywalled: https://www.newscientist.com/article/2388697-plastic-bottles-can-be-recycled-into-energy-storing-supercapacitors/

Sounds like they need their own mastodon server.

Go home #Xitter, you’re drunk.

The biggest thing to note about the new messenger, by far, is that the developer intends to provide end-to-end encryption. More impressively, the app is intended to work with any Fediverse account.

This would make cross communication across the fediverse easier and may even interest others to join. It gives a leg up to the InstaRedFaceXTwitThreadApps since you can just use your one fediverse account.

There are definitely some open questions about how Sup works with the rest of the Fediverse. Do users just sign in to a service via an OAuth dance with their Fediverse accounts? Do the messages federate over ActivityPub? Does my server store my messages, or does just the app store those?

These questions and more would have to be answered before I signed up though.

@JoBo I just googled it and Kenya came up as the first hit in Search and in Bard.

Well, if some sort of artificial gravity is not implemented:

“The level of gravity on the moon—about 17 percent that of Earth’s—could wreak havoc on bones, muscles, and other organs. And then there are the psychological aspects of what one NASA astronaut described as the “vast loneliness” of the moon.”

Seems like there are two schools of thought on this:

“We don’t know much about aliens, but we know about humans. If you look at history, contact between humans and less intelligent organisms have often been disastrous from their point of view, and encounters between civilizations with advanced versus primitive technologies have gone badly for the less advanced. A civilization reading one of our messages could be billions of years ahead of us. If so, they will be vastly more powerful, and may not see us as any more valuable than we see bacteria.” --Stephen Hawking

“While Sir Stephen Hawking warned that alien life might try to conquer or colonize Earth, I respectfully disagree,” Tarter said in a statement in 2012. "If aliens were to come here, it would be simply to explore. Considering the age of the universe, we probably wouldn’t be their first extraterrestrial encounter, either.

“If aliens were able to visit Earth, that would mean they would have technological capabilities sophisticated enough not to need slaves, food or other planets,” she added. --Jill Tarter, former director of the Center for SETI
