Tragic. Fuck Putin.

IANAL - anecdotally businesses here ask forgiveness rather than permission, and penalties are a pittance. They usually do not even have to admit guilt in court. An individual may win their case, but their advasary has its own dedicated legal department and comparatively infinite resources.

The salient point (emphasis mine):

Federal law requires the EPA to conduct safety reviews before allowing new chemical products onto the market. If the agency finds that a substance causes unreasonable risk to health or the environment, the EPA is not allowed to approve it without first finding ways to reduce that risk.

But the agency did not do that in this case. Instead, the EPA decided its scientists were overstating the risks and gave Chevron the go-ahead

Anyone can use Resist bot to write their representatives for free. You basically write a short letter on mobile (ios app or text "resist" to 50409 and follow the prompts), and it'll format and send it as a fax.

Need a reading room for all those banned books.

Keeping my expectations low in the hopes I'll be pleasantly surprised.

The sync dev is working on a sync for lemmy, I think he said aiming for 4 weeks. He made a channel in his discord for info.

Really loved sync, and on principal have quit reddit. I don't know if it does anything, but when I need search results from reddit I view the Google cached version instead.

Looking forward to sync for lemmy (I NEED a read-on-scroll for lemmy, I don't know how everyone else is handling it).
