  • Fun fact, chickens are not insects! Honeybee queens and many other female insects have sperm storage organs that they use to fertilize their eggs internally.

    Bees are nature’s ultimate girlbosses. The queen doesn’t have a harem of males constantly railing her to maintain the hive. She just preserves the sperm to maintain a supply so the males can be safely eliminated. Hives are an girl only society, and the queen won’t even lay a male egg until they are needed.

    Also insects have an anus. Not analogous to a bird’s cloaca.

    We know a lot about rockets. They were able to build rockets that launch reliably in the 1960s. Rockets are a difficult engineering challenge, but its one we understood half a century ago.

    We aren’t learning anything about rocketry when elon blows up another rocket. All we’re learning about is the depths of both his pockets and his ineptitude.


  • Most of the laptops framework sells are sold with a windows license. Only a small subset of their small subset of Linux customers are technical enough to consider which compositor they’re using, and even fewer of them are even aware that hyperland exists and is a fascist project.

    This is very in the weeds. Considering this deliberately marketing to fascists, or indicative of the company’s assumptions about their customers broadly is an insane stretch.

    Framework sells microsoft products in their store, when microsoft is actively involved in helping the IDF commit genocide in Gaza. Framework bundles microsoft products in the pre-built versions of their computers. That is far more indicative of their attitudes to their customers than their donations to open source.

    Keep the pressure on, do what you can to make open source better and uninviting to fascists, but keep perspective of reality while you do it.
