Can the Boing and BBS start doing this?
I spotted this in a BBC article about Musk threatening to sue Microsoft (yes, let them fight), and I thought it was a great additional FU to him and his company.

Thanks for the suggestion. Hope it can be implemented and other people want it too.

It’s a problematic solution when marginalized people post important content and video there. I try to screenshot other content and post those voices to amplify them.

Screenshots are also problematic unless one includes the transcript in the alt tag.

We live in an imperfect world and struggle to make the least worst accommodations in all things.

“ Eric Roesch, an expert in environmental compliance and risk assessment who has been tracking SpaceX’s rocket launches, said in an interview that he and others had long warned of the environmental risks to the surrounding region. But without a chemical analysis of the dust and debris, he added, it was difficult to say whether or not they were harmful to human health.
But, Mr. Roesch said, “the presence of that dust kind of indicates to me that the impact modeling was inadequate, because this was not really disclosed as a possible impact.” In June, an environmental assessment by the Federal Aviation Administration concluded that SpaceX’s plans for orbital launches would have “no significant impact” on the region along the Gulf Coast.
Mr. Roesch, who runs the environmental policy blog ESG Hound, said he believed the dust and debris came largely from a giant crater formed during the rocket’s liftoff. Normally, major launch sites are engineered with a trench or water system that helps to divert the rocket’s flame away from the ground and to dampen the impact, he said.
“They didn’t do that,” he said. “It appears they just went ahead and just launched this thing.””

But hey… who could have predicted a dangerous dust cloud from a massive rocket… no one is who! You can’t get to space without fucking up a few eco-systems, I say! /s

Using the Hierarchy of Controls, there are various methods of preventing exposure to respirable crystalline silica. The best way to prevent silicosis is to avoid worker exposure to dust containing respirable crystalline silica.

It’s not like they are dealing with problems that were solved in the 60’s or anything, just let the man with infinite resources cut corners. /S

Thread reader still works? I’m surprised.
Of the top 10 space agencies in the world, only @NASA is verified.
Pure coincidence, I 'm sure. (/s)
Didn’t verification come from some suits or an early consent decree? Wonder how long before those documents are going to rise from the grave.
