Yeah, DAA is for fields, not for animals. Hives though are more or less following the data flow of plant management discipline.

I actually tried to deploy it and replace my bee monitoring system with it (aljo a django python). Too much hassle in installation, too little features in client. But nevertheless, quite a tool.

I've got help from the main dev, he was super nice and helpful.

I just don't like python when coding large production things. I'm trying to design an alternative (in Rust), maintaining compatibility with DAA is quite high in priorities.

Damn, when I lived in Helsinki, I got parking ticket for parking properly near my apt during the 5 min it took me to run home and send an email registering my plate for a list of tenant cars. Never thought someone would be asking this.

I say I'm an anarchist cyborg witch, that usually does the trick. Honest and clear.

Well, the fungus fruited, the tree survived till winter dormancy (waiting for snow now). Moss is super stable in these pots, even ones where everything else died still are emerald mossy. I often find squatter birch saplings in these as well, although few make it to first year. I would count this as stable, let's see who grows there next year!

Makind the things you mentioned is nothing a village witch (like me) couldn't do in a garage. I only struggle finding a way to do full dna barcoding, and I can't do nuclear drugs without a cyclotrone, which would probably take whole towns coordinated effort. Inventing new ones... anarchists are already better at this than capitalists.

lol came here to write this. No-brainer, really, you could have all the butterness in the world easily by being naughty!

I'd recommend dissolving the salts in water before it is added to mixture, otherwise it may not dissolve completely over mashing time and might be not homogeneously distributed.

We should be using different words to separate the abstract empire from other manifestations of state, see, we are confusing each other. But the state is just a bunch of people. A bunch that another larger bunch of people just tolerates. Many, many people who do the oppression. Share your data with suckerberg? You just helped him. Buy cheap chinese electronics? Support genocide sweatshop and global capital network. Drink a coffee? Sure your neighbor grew it and got a fair price on it, right?

The only way capitalism managed to pull itself out is through bribing the people. Sure, forcing us to do slave work was involved too, but let's not deny that this scheme has layers and fooled benefitiaries stacked on top of each other, nobody enjoying a fraction of joy and life that being free and real brings. Taking out the head inevitably involves getting through these layers, making them collaborate with all the sane people. You wouldn't need a raptor if an army regiment who has them did their stated job of defending people by targeting somebody harmful instead of killing innocents half globe away.

I can make a tool on par with a raptor, so can many engineers at lm and raytheon and boeing and roskosmos, there are doctors who treat putin, cooks for kim choke whatever, whores for trump. We are all people with powers and choices. And I wouldn't say we should kill ourselves overturning the system, no, if I'd think so, I'd be dead long time ago, in a large pool of dead bodies. But we can at least stop collaborating with it, and I'm quite certain that should be enough. Best time for that was 400 years ago or so, next best is now.

After all, capitalism IS a natural order, by the fact that we do empirically observe it as dominating phenomenon in nature. Which does not mean we can't change that, humans are really good at things like that. The question is - who will do the work towards this change, and I haven't seen anyone who wasn't a punk actually doing meaningful work ever. Maybe not all at once, but building the society one community at a time is great rate if done by many people around the globe. It's just that focusing efforts on resisting USA easily turns into supporting your local oppressor instead of building the right thing. I've seen it myself, even with my family. I've seen people in US ignoring the things you write too, and that was terrible, but this colonial stance and focus on US local problems is not cool at all. The whole system is corrupt and there is no single state that supports it alone, there is an abstract empire, but it's wider and deeper than whatever just usa could mean.

Lol, so that silly self-destructive president might be actually doing something good by taking that nonsense economy down?

Although I doubt it's national thing, there are filthy rich assholes who would rather kill us all than let a tiny bit of equality to happen. Most of them are "in the USA", sure, although I suspect they actually spend more time in other places where child molesting is simpler. We are all responsible for it only as much as we let those people keep exploiting us all. USA is only responsible as the largest power oppression mechanism in hands of "free market capitalists" oxymoron; if it goes away, then some other state would be the biggest and strongest and naturally take its place.

Certbot complained about invalid files structure... after 18 successful updates over the years. Seriously, those guys should put a bit more care into updating stuff. Of course, the fix was trivial.
