Alcohol and city life
I’m in no way the first person to bring up this point, but it needs to be repeated:
A large portion of open, public city life is centered around alcohol. That’s problematic.
I like alcohol, but more variety in the public space wouldn’t hurt.
I love cafés – however, in #Stockholm I would love to see more cafés that are open late. We could do so much better in that regard.
Feel free to boost if you agree.
We have some news for you.
What if OpenSSL had a GUI?

🔌 harmonised fast-charging technology
🔌 unbundling of sale of chargers

In the US, companies are under no obligation to honor any request that they stop sending you physical mail. Send them as many requests in as varied a format as you like; they can ignore each and every one.
EXCEPT. If you say "please stop, this mailing made me horny", they are required by federal law to immediately block your address. It doesn't have to be honest or sincere; just saying "your ad turned me on, and I don't like it" is enough. 🌈⭐️
Open call for obsolete sounds! This project is really fascinating. They're requesting recordings of sounds from our environment, old tech, etc. that are no longer commonplace and then those will be reimagined by sound artists "to draw attention to the world’s disappearing soundscapes." https://citiesandmemory.com/2022/05/open-call-your-field-recordings-of-obsolete-sounds-wanted/
It's nice to see in-depth profiles of minor characters, or in this case, this barely-seen computer prop from Loki.
