Very odd. Simone got an error each time he replied via webmention to my link to his manifesto, and yet I see each of the replies and each of the emails he sent me to warn me of the error. A clear sign that I should upgrade WithKnown, and soon.

Take precautions: global warming deserves it | Jeremy Cherfas

On this day, 17 years ago, I linked to an article by James Hansen about the urgency of taking climate change seriously. We are still not taking it seriously.

Somewhat pooped after a long drive, Rome to almost the tip of Salento, made tolerable by a delicious lunch with friends at their new house along the way and the restorative nap that followed.

/u/spez is right about feudalism and that’s why reddit as we know it is doomed | maya.land
