For more than 60 years, hundreds of unclassified reports from the US defense and intelligence community have assessed the threats to the US from environmental, #water, and #climate risks.
Those reports are disappearing from government websites and the military is being ordered to cancel, and censor, these security analyses.
I've documented, annotated, and linked to them on my website in three blog posts. The first one is here (the next two are there as well):
Summary: For more than half a century, U.S. intelligence and defense communities have worked to understand the threats to national and international security from a range of enviro

@aardrian Thanks for the article. BTW, Scott, would you mind linking to the correct article on the material.io website? When I clicked on the link, it took me to some parked domain. Otherwise, many good thoughts and points. Unfortunately, interactive toasts / snackbars aren't going away, no matter how hard we try. It has become a defacto pattern.
No idea why the hell Google would make a documentation site and then abandon the domain instead of just setting up a permanent redirect, but it certainly feels on brand.
@aardrian @vick21 i didn't see adrian's post until after i updated this morning and just removed the link since i was on my phone, and i couldn't be bothered to go find the updated page that google should have just redirected to anyway. :)
@aardrian Thanks Scott. I was totally unaware that this domain ever existed and I have been engaged with the team for over 5 years! :) Here is the latest guidance, in case you are curious: m3.material.io/components/snac…

A new report from the AARP Fraud Watch Network underscores the growing concern of fraud among American consumers, as criminals continue to take advantage of widespread security vulnerabilities.
We didn't avoid falling into the same trap as America, we took a step towards it. Next election you'll also "have" to vote liberal to keep out the conservatives. They'll be told they "have" to vote conservative to end 15 years of liberal rule. This is how FPTP destabilizes democracy, it's now coming straight for #Canada We have to stop treating #ProportionalRepresentation like some back burner issue or we will lose our country.
@hub Maxine Bernier sat in parliament for 13 years and got 49% in the conservative leadership race. Yes. That close. If that conservative leadership race used our federal voting system he would have become the leader with just 28% of the vote. Several years later PP got in anyway. I’d love to see more greens, more libertarians, an indigenous party, people representing what Canadians want coming into a room and figuring out what at least half of them can agree on.
Telling people to “do your own research” when in reality it means embracing disinformation from uncredentialed wellness grifters trying to peddle non-proven alternatives, and ignoring decades of rigorous peer-reviewed work from scientific experts, will kill people.

U nás na vesnici je to každou noc jak někdo zatopí. Každá z těch delších špiček začíná kolem 20. hodiny a končí mezi 7.-10. Velké ohně u nás včera nebyly, obec to organizovala ve vedlejší vesnici.
Tady se venku skoro nedalo dýchat, byl viditelný kouř všude ve vzduchu a po návratu domů jsme urychleně zavírali okna (ale už pozdě). Fakt nevím, kde (asi na Hostivařské přehradě??) a co (???) pálili, ale hrůza.
Husty. To je Brno nebo mensi obec? Mensi obec paradoxne bude mit asi horsi vzduch, vic ohnu. Stejne jako ze v zime pali lidi odpadky. Mimochodem, jaka je prumerna uroven dejme tomu v lednu?
@vancura To je rezidenční oblast Brna. Takhle vypadá graf za posledního půl roku. Jde nádherně poznat, kdy končí topná sezóna. V tom se bohužel od vesnic nelišíme.
When you’re scripting for a screen reader, then you’re scripting for the browser, with exactly the same level of JavaScript support.
However complications can arise with event handling, because screen readers intercept events and don't always pass them on to the browser, and even then, keyboard actions might fire mouse events.

Call of Fate: A Tour De Force in culturally accepted tropes: Call of Fate is a Chinese #audiogame released on Android and IOS by Prudence Interactive, intended to be #accessible to both #blind and sighted players. These are my thoughts after playing for several days. stuff.interfree.ca/2025/04/30/call-of-fate-a-tour.html

Okay so, in Chinese and I think Japanese culture, the best rank is S, I should tell you to read some chinese fantasy stuff, read A thousand Li by Tao Wang. I hope I can write names. If not, just write a thousand li and read it. You'll get sense of the Chinese stuff. :)
Haha. The story section reminds me of a BK3 review I read once, which called the story "compelling". And I was like, even with the translation pack, the story just seems like random words and names vomited out and shuffled until they resembled sentences.
@blindndangerous@jscholes I wouldn't call it "bad". Ranger Legend I might, but this one isn't nearly as buggy, doesn't crash, the interface and translation are better, and it overall feels a bit more polished. I've noticed AG is highly xenophobic; I wouldn't trust most of what they say about anything. Warshovel is a better game when it comes to progression, story, and mechanics. But Call of Fate sounds nicer. So take your pick, I guess.
I'm not sure I know what sort of thing is likely to get great reviews on there. Probably a web-based game I have to download and unzip, open index.html, and then decide whether to play as a character with 17 vaginas or no sex organs at all. Unless I subscribe to a Patreon and then I get to have a canoe as a penis or something. @fastfinge
@jscholes@blindndangerous Nah, they like incomprehensible space muds that you can only play with a sound pack and that are based on stolen codebases. I find they actually have pretty good taste in choose your own adventure pornography, oddly enough.
Are we still talking about the same place or do I just dig deep enough into the topics themselves. I scroll through general and new releases and if the topic isn't interesting, I skip.
I sometimes dip into the new releases room, find that threads started in 2015 have bubbled up to the top because someone is complaining about an old release or demonstrating poor judgement about when to make a new topic, and then close the tab. @fastfinge
@jscholes@blindndangerous But without audiogames, where can I post space bang? It's my new release written in BGT that goes "bang!" whenever you press the spacebar! How many times can you press the spacebar? Soon there will be a scoreboard and an online account system that costs $18 and goes down three times a week! Just click this dropbox link!
@blindndangerous@jscholes I wish the admin would just come back, period. Eleven cloudflare challenges per visit seems to be an easier solution than actually updating the forum software.
@blindndangerous@jscholes Sounds like you've never played Flexible Survival. Or Lessons in Love. Or Endless Summer. Or inheritance. Or corruption of champions. Those are just the ones off the top of my head that have at least some mechanic that could be described like that LOL.
I have read some Asian-based fantasy, and the game plot sounds nothing like what I've read. That being said, I've only started intentionally branching out from European-based fantasy over the past few years, and I've tried to diversify my reading experience, so maybe the game is based off of something I have not read.
@lynessence It could also be that because you’re reading intentionally, you’re only getting the “good” Asian fantasy. If someone asked me to recommend western fantasy, I’d probably give them wheel of time, not xanth or a Minecraft novel.
He certainly did, Bosoms and all. lol I also think he had a thing for redheads. Thank goodness Brandon Sanderson didn't carry on the RJ'ISM of describing every woman’s boobs.
@lynessence@atherjammoa But how will I know she’s a woman if I don’t know everything about her boobs? Otherwise she’s just another man! This complaint applies to far too many female characters written by male authors.
@lynessence@atherjammoa Uh, sorry. I know your eyes are...well, I was going to say up there...but you're shorter than me haha. So down there, I guess. grin
