Yeah I saw someone on Bluesky say that there should be a crossover with the Chair Company and it did seem to be heading in that direction a little. I liked how it completely changed the tone of the show and still remained funny and suspenseful as you didn’t know what to expect. Rhea Seahorn managed to make it as compelling as possible. Vince Gilligan has consistently shown us that when things slow down it means we’re bulding towards something. Everyone seems to have the same assumption about what she saw in the final shot so I can only assume it’s NOT that.

That’s a criticism which is yours to have though it is not constructive nor is this. Your comment called it “bullshit” and effectively said “fake news”. I made a simple request to be more mindful of your words. Pushing back further isn’t appreciated.

I found those without much effort. I didn’t say they were in the article. Just showing it’s not necessarily theoretical which was your opinion. Calling something “bullshit” can come across as unnecessarily combative and you then just dismissed the article outright. Constructive would be to state why and what about it could be improved which is more appreciated. People are free to read for themselves.

Such as this? This article is about it being developed 3 years ago . Totally valid to question an article. Please keep comments constructive if possible.

Thank you everyone for reporting this, constructively discussing in comments and using downvotes appropriately to bring to our attention. After reviewing the account and reaching out to them to no avail, along with their lack of response to community members, we’ve decided it is likely a bot account and have followed many other community mods in banning them from this community. Thanks again all for helping keep discussions constructive here.

Thanks for flagging that.

That seems to be the consensus

Thanks for sharing your inside perspective!

Enshittification of the night

Yeah this really seems like a multitude of disasters waiting to happen

I think you summed it up pretty well and that all sounds very accurate. There are enough green energy solutions out there that we shouldn’t have to sacrifice all the things you mentioned. I’m not reading much in the ways it would be beneficial or necessary.

Thanks for the shout out regardless Prodigal Frog & Five and for catching that Nemo! The odd spelling may be my bad, I believe I tried the other way, but either way it would be great to see the community take off a bit more and CouncelingTechie and I are pretty open to whatever community members want to bring to it.

Since you like Psycho, I’d recommend Peeping Tom by Michael Powell or several movies by Mario Bava from the era like The Girl Who Knew Too Much and Blood and Black Lace. Eyes Without a Face is also Great. Also Rosemary’s Baby and Repulsion by Polanski. For Japanese Films you should check out Yojimbo, Sword of Doom, and 2 by Seijun Suzuki ; Branded to Kill and Tokyo Drifter. Also check out Dr. Strangelove by Kubrick and if you like New Hollywood westerns , etc Bonnie and Clyde and The Wild Bunch are requisites. French New Wave stuff is important so maybe Breathless and Band of Outsiders and of course Melville’s “Le Samourai.” Spaghetti Westerns were very influential and Leone’s Man With No Name Trilogy ( A Fistful of Dollars, For a few Dollars More, The Good the Band and the Ugly ) and Once Upon A time in The West are a good starting point. There are so many but those are a few recommendations that might send you down further rabbit holes.

That looks really cool. A nice way to light up the night and make it feel safe, very Lunarpunk, without adding light pollution.

As you should. The admins and moderators of this instance share in that sentiment. It would be a contradiction of this organization’s mission statements and policies aimed at protecting artists if that’s the case.

Their resources may be limited but that’s good they offer accommodation. I assume you’re referring to the residency. This is just an open call for artists to submit art.

That’s certainly not ideal. Do you have any recommendations ?

It could, that’s a good observation. I thought about sharing it to the Lunarpunk community but the two genres are so inextricably linked in terms of fiction that it can be hard to pinpoint a distinct dividing line between them. The other mod in that community and I were both just mentioning the possibilities that still remain in Lunarpunk as it’s still a nascent subgenre and aesthetic so I wouldn’t rule it out. With Lunarpunk’s tendency to be more introspective and spiritual that could match with Noir’s existentialism and fatalism although its iconography would probably look a bit different and need an update.

That’s an imprtant novel, too. It’s worth noting that Sarena Ulibarri stated on Mastodon :

I’m never so bold as to claim that the things I enjoy are objectively “the best,” but Five Books asked me for a list of #solarpunk books I recommend, so I listed five I think more people should read.
