He already pleaded guilty, but then got hit with the maximum sentence (seemingly from pressure from people like Rick Scott). He’s still trying to fight it out legally and his friends put together a gofundme to help cover his legal fees, but a pressure campaign for a pardon doesn’t sound like a half bad idea either.

Looks like he’s still fighting the sentence and his friends set up a gofund me to help pay his legal fees. Should anyone be interested in showing him some support outside of the commissary.

I’ve actually met this guy a few years ago… crazy… he was a pretty nice guy from what I recall - brought homemade cinnamon buns to a party.

Anyways, his friends set up a gofundme to donate for his legal fees, since of course it costs thousands to continue defending himself and his actions…

A really nice owl

I actually have run into him on the street a couple times - he still wears the question mark suit (even when just like going to the grocery store) and his car is even covered with them. He is committed.

Highly recommend the essay that quote is from: “Anti-Semite and Jew”. It’s written from that post-liberation of Paris/ending of ww2 perspective, but a lot of the insights on the nature of that kind of societal hate still hold up pretty well.

Heard he killed Hitler though

It takes energy to produce them, sure, but it’s way less than even just the production needs for coal or natural gas. Not to mention that’s a one time carbon cost (per lifespan which is close to 30 years these days) vs ongoing emissions. And additionally, as the energy mix where the panels are produced cleans up, the carbon footprint of the panels go down as well! Is it the perfect solution? No, but there is no silver bullet to get off fossil fuels. Solar is just one part of that transition and it is exciting to see more groups exploring the solar/shade synergy (there’s some cool shaded farming solar experiments going on that also make use of the solar panel’s shadow for additional benefits!)

Exciting to see! I loved the original, but never played the remake on PSP so looking forward to this!
