@cato@chaosfurs.social really common in the UK for military training areas to be pretty wilded and natural, and likewise routinely open to the public. The military needs lots of open, natural space where no development happens. At the same time, as govt land, nature/pollution/etc regulations are generally better adhered to than private developers who have a profit motive.

Have you ever had the need to roll 196 dice? My friend did and make a device to do so.

If you want to try, I made a simulator here: https://pulham.info/dice.html

(It's nowhere near as satisfying).

If anyone in the UK (especially the South East/London) has unusual telephones they would donate or sell for a modest fee, I would be interested on behalf of the Reading hackerspace, rLab.
As long as they work or are easily repairable for a standard POTS network/landline.

See below a Dutch ex-prison service phone, as well as a ruggedised phone used airside at Heathrow.

Boosts welcomed.

I am pleased to announce the first collaborative deployment between telekline communications and Øl Telecom.

telekline has provided installation and configuration consultancy to install 24 fixed telephone lines at Øl Telecom's research site at rLab.

Pleased to have worked with @hugh@social.crablab.uk from Øl to realise this technology's full potential.

@lanodan@queer.hacktivis.me You're right, since it's a national policy, you can't singlehandedly make an incremental difference, but every individuals contribution counts. Screaming bloody murder at a frank summary of capabilities just incentivises the arms industry to do more of their work out of the public eye, or to euphemise it to minimise the public's understanding/reaction. That, btw, is the only thing this "scandal" has achieved. Redhat aren't cancelling this project, we just don't get to see it anymore.

Otherwise, what I see looks like people who enjoy BBQs, but are hypocritically up in arms when they are exposed to the mechanics of industrial food slaughter. You have input to this system. Become a vegetarian/reform your politics. You can't be angry at this but go back to eating war-raised meat.

If you're upset that wars exist, start electing politicians that don't start wars of aggression. If you're upset that you were exposed to shocking words, think about why you have been insulated from gory truth for so long. If you think the arms industry simply shouldn't exist, consider Ukraine. Is it right or ethical that they should be allowed to compress the kill cycle when protecting their cities from invasion?

I don't get the redhat kill cycle thing.
You have an arms industry, and they're being uncharacteristically honest about what they do.
There's no chaff about euphemising what they do (eg calling dead civilians "collateral damage", soldiers "operators", or war "kinetic activity").

The defence (arms) industry makes things that kill people and break their stuff so your politicians can have shorter wars with fewer casualties.

This is how the sausage is made. If you don't like it, reassess why:

  • Prices and policies are all written in a foreign currency (US dollars, vs. UK registration: https://doubledipstore.co.uk/shipping-returns )

  • "Free Returns on All Orders for the Next 30 Days!" is a dark tactic. No legit business wants to advertise how much you need to return. It's designed to lower your guard thinking you can take a chance and get your money back more easily if it doesn't work out.

If you're going to buy anything from here, do it on a credit card and chargeback when it goes tits.

  • Copywriting is extremely thin/generic/ai generated (eg https://doubledipstore.co.uk/about-us )

  • "Registered business location" is literally just some guys house. This address has no active registrations at Companies House, the UK business register. ( https://doubledipstore.co.uk/contact-us ). Note: I suspect the person at this address has no idea their address is used.

@ignaloidas@not.acu.lt you might be getting the wrong bit of my message, but fair. My main point is that for a long time a lot of people (most people?) specifically said they wanted fedi to be a place without some of the toxic features we saw on twitter, of which quote replies were a big part of it. I'm sad that despite identifying this feature as a bad way to interact in short-form blogging, we have nevertheless implemented and widely adopted it because it gets good "engagement"/modes of posting.

Palestine Action proscription has been ruled unlawful, but remains proscribed until at least a further hearing is completed, as well as any govt appeal.

I wonder how many people have been prosecuted for membership/support.

@robparsons@mastodon.social @cstross@wandering.shop they've had a couple of different articles on it over the past two weeks, depending on how it's been ebbing and flowing, as well as the general newsroom focus has changed. I don't think they've exactly been suppressing it, I think that just not everything can be front page all the time, and people think if it's not front page it's not covered. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/topics/cjnwl8q4ggwt shows they've been covering this since day 3 - 14 stories and a live page. Nearly an article a day.
