San Francisco is the perfect example of what happens when you house addicts - they don't improve, continue the bad behavior, they destroy the housing and are often kicked out of it. We've got several examples a week of people maki

Homelessness on the west coast doesn't really have much to do with the market pricing of housing, its all about drugs. Harm Reduction is a sham, its why SF is the way it is. Simply giving people access to free needles does nothing for

The shelters usually require sobriety and don't have a good track record of dealing with violent people.

The alternative is actually putting them in jail for the crimes they comitted on the street so they detox there. It got a mediocre success rate but its 100x better than whats happening now.

Yes, Scott Wiener made a law that basically made it illegal for SF to do business with almost every state in the US. Often using incorrect methods of determination for why.

Because liquified hydrogen requires more containment than gasoline and you need really clean water to make reasonable hydrogen. AFAIK Nuclear is a lot better for this than PV anyways. I'm in the "PV is greenwashing" camp, I w

Unpaywalled -> https://archive.ph/arDQf This seems pretty cool. I'm not super familiar with the technology but from what I took out of the article it won't be a straightforward replacement for a lot of solution

feed2toot can do some of it, but you'd need to build something to automate your feed/etc. Its also probably against Twitter's TOS to tweet2toot so YMMV.

This guy must be really bored. The internet itself is made up of a ton of different pieces, almost all of which don't require anything particularly special aside from knowing how the internet actually works. In fact the internet is man

I tried using Zulip, nobody else wanted to use it because it was so clunky. I appreciate what they're trying to do but as someone who's been using internet based chat for 30 years (oof), I don't think its going to catch on un

Could you describe said "trickery"? Eminent Domain is one thing, but people paying eachother for land is as old as time, as is being butthurt about the price.

They seek redress with their government, not with the the economic zone. If enough people screw over the local residents they'll have created their own economic blockade which ultimately won't help them.

That article seems to say that residents of Roatan won't receive the same treatment as the residents with this spectre of potential civil liberties violations. That wouldn't be good, but what supports that case? Wouldn't it b

The claims seem to be similar to what we're facing with NIMBYism in San Francisco, which often seems to be based in Xenophobia. It would be one thing if they were destroying a several hundred year old city but that doesn't seem li

So eminent domain type things are being used?

This seems pretty old since the newest piece of "news" on the site is fairly old. Also the top article is from 9 years ago... I'm also unclear on how narcos are involved in this. In general this seems like "FUD".

AFAIK 'sed' is pretty easy to use :) All kidding aside though, I do wonder how collisions like this happen/persist. Also, if you port to support pf you'll probably need to rebrand for real.
