I make things happen. Usually when it is least opportune to do so. And for the least possible benefit. Bookmarks are existent now. I repost b/c I forget to check Bookmarks. He/Him, but you could have inferred that from the quality of my interactions.

As the story explains, Green Bank is a radio telescope facility, and gas spark plugs emit radio interference that mess with the signals, so all vehicles on site have to be diesels, the older the better. My brother's friend works as a researcher there, and during a visit my he sent me these pics:

I've wanted to cover the story of this strange government facility since 2017, and I even talked to their PR person, but covid shelved the idea and we never followed up. Glad to see somebody else finally did it, although I would've liked to see more car photos! www.roadandtrack.com/car-culture/...

Watched the first two episodes of Jaadugar, A Witch In Mongolia. And it’s an absolute must for anyone who enjoys Apothecary Dairies or Ascendence of a Book Worm. A work set among a time period I hardly see in anime or western media, who’s soft pastel aesthetic clashes with a deeply intense story

Niantic needs to be sued into oblivion. If neither GameFreak or @nintendousa.bsky.social do something about this? I will assume they are complicit and openly boycott any and all future products from them.

This might be one of the most insane scandals in game history When Pokemon Go players scan PokeStops, theyve been unknowingly building a detailed visual model of the world which is being sold to a military contractor to build a no-GPS positioning for the new generation of unmanned killing machines
