Looks like another community moderated by a missing person that might disappear when lemm.ee shuts down.

Anyone thinking of / inclined to migrate it to another instance?

Free software plays a critical role in science, both in research and in disseminating it. Aspects of software freedom are directly relevant to simulation, analysis, document preparation and preservation, security, reproducibility, and usability. Free software brings practical and specific advantages, beyond just its ideological roots, to science, while proprietary software comes with equally specific risks. As a practicing scientist, I would like to help others—scientists or not—see the benefits from free software in science.


One sad but common situation is that of a graduate student who becomes accustomed to a piece of expensive commercial analytical software (such as a symbolic-mathematics program), enjoying it either through a generous student discount or because it's paid for by the department. Then the freshly-minted PhD discovers the real price of the software, and can't afford it on their postdoc salary. They have to learn new ways of doing things, and have probably lost access to their past work, which is locked up in proprietary binary files.

So it was the AI that added the maritime setting, not you?

As of Thursday morning, Aftermath was not able to access the game on the US Google Play Store; according to Bloomberg, it was removed from the Google Play Store in May for issues unrelated to the current ban. We’ve reached out to Google for comment.

I cannot find it in the Google Play Store here in Mexico.

But it is available as an .APK (861MB) from the game homepage:

Bassline sounds a lot like the one in Inner City Blues by Marvin Gaye...but it is slightly different. Sampled from the Reuben Wilson cover.

Harlon Carter, the racist vigilante killer who later led a takeover of the NRA and reshaped it in his image, was head of the Border Patrol at the time and a key figure in this.

Tubi also has Who Killed Captain Alex? from the same director.

Yeah, I noted it was renowned scifi author Richard Matheson who wrote it.

China has outlined a string of reforms to accelerate the development of hi-tech emerging industries in the city of Shenzhen, as the tech hub in southern China grapples with a barrage of US trade restrictions.

The plan focuses on boosting Shenzhen’s ability to create scalable business models in industries such as artificial intelligence and aviation that can be replicated across China, by helping the city cultivate a larger talent pool, expand local companies’ access to financing, and speed up the deployment of cutting-edge technologies

PS for a while there, Tubi in Mexico would only let me see films dubbed into Spanish. But looking around now (on the website at least, not sure yet in the Roku app), it's a mix:

  • movies & TV shows dubbed into Spanish (with no option for original/English)
  • movies in English / original language
  • "Content unavailable" when you click on it (then why the hell are you pushing it at me???)
  • a few linear TV channels, like ION, ION Plus

And it's available on Tubi Mexico not dubbed into Spanish, with English subtitles. Sweet!

Queued up for later.

This may be true about the US. What's the UK's excuse?

"You want to buy a Chelsea tractor? OK, as long as you know and accept the consequences." Only let them buy 4x4s that come with a wrap like the kind you get on cigarettes, but instead showing injuries and deaths to pedestrians caused by 4x4s.

How a student fought to do their degree without submitting to proprietary (Microsoft, Google, Oracle etc) software and services that lecturers & admins demanded, and only use free software instead (like Jami, Jitsi Meet, PostgreSQL etc).
