Bill Gates would rather pay for vaccines than travel to Mars

I am writing an article on my website about this, but focus more on the statements about colonising mars and ask what that means in terms of the fact both Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk want to do this, trying to examine their track record in business given the exploitation and general treatment of workers. Are they the best people to do this, and given history of White Europeans, what exactly do we mean by colonise.
You probably want to set up your own clubs where people can get together and just build with components, build addons to raspberry pis, experiment with arduino etc. There is a repair cafe type movement too, so link up with them.
We are going to try and do the latter at the STEM group I run, partly as we were also given a huge stack of components so they could benefit from access to those too.
Schools don't always have the funds or expertise to teach stuff that is way beyond the curriculum, aiming at adults is usually better, parents can bring their kids of course, unless you want to also be looking after kids as well as doing your own projects.

There is nothing much in the BBC news about this so how many people are aware it is happening ?

Dead on there. Also, the evident and genuine camaraderie, respect, and friendship amongst the people who worked together on Bordello and Crypt. Their support for one another and commitment to their work product— despite all the nonsense thrown their way— was heartening and admirable. More so, given the industry they work in.

Twitter just announced free access to the Twitter API will end on February 9, with unannounced pricing or usage details, effectively killing every free fun and useful thing ever built with it: bots, games, mashups, visualizations, research projects, autoposters, autoblockers, deleters, and so much more. https://twitter.com/twitterdev/status/1621026986784337922

We will have to remove Twitter integration from NetNewsWire.

You can use AI art to render "Children with guns laying in pools of blood", but tells me I'll be in trouble if I use the word "boobs".
Someone please tell me I'm not crazy that our society is completely reversed and fucked up in priorities?
Sex is beautiful. Guns should be banned.
Sex not guns.

That looks like the scene from The trouble with tribbles, when kirk is trying to find out who started the fight on k7 with the Klingons.

My 16-year-old nephew just asked me if Groundhog Day existed before the Bill Murray movie of the same name. I hope that his parents invite me on the sailboat they buy with the money they were saving for his college education.

OK. With the latest news. We will likely see another mass #twittermigration
That can only be a good thing. 🖖

If your NZ company is hiring and will sponsor work visas
please let me know so I can pass it on to the trans people in the US that need exit strategies *right now*.
I contacted the British Trust for Ornithology earlier, in response to their twitter ban over a WoodCock and suggested they join here. The more people who simply e-mail organisations and suggest they join the closer to this we will get.
Yes, ideally with their own instance, but they can join any in the first instance to get a feel and ask for help.
Lets keep the momentum up with this.
