Problems with ProjectEUNOMIA

1) sinister as fuck name, irrelevant to discussions but it wouldn't have hurt them to call it Project Fluffy Bunnies or something

2) anything they build will just move the problem from people blindly believing anything they read to people blindly believing anything they read that has a green checkmark or whatever next to it which doesn't solve the original problem

3) obvious abuse potential of anything they build

@bob @maiyannah actual military organisations is also a possibility considering Trilateral Research (the firm doing the project) also works with the MoD

possibly neat wearable tech idea: a signet ring for the modern era

openpgp card implementation built into a ring

maybe with an engraving as well if you want to get out some sealing wax and have a key signing party like it's 1799

@masklayer ahem, uh, hoist the mast mateys?

@Jo particularly vocal group of people who insist that you can only do illusion work properly with applewood wands (which also require you to use different spellbooks than the regular kind)

@sydneyfalk I did warn you

@maple dashcon was bad but fyre had actual disaster relief tents

I once came across a bottle of satan's own egg and brandy liqueur

it was the devil's advocaat

for context, this Project EUNOMIA thing

which is an incredibly sinister name if you think about it regardless of any links to anything

Did Eugen not notice the amount of stick we gave gibson for merely talking to the cops or did he think collaborating on a research project carried out on behalf of a government by a firm that's previously done projects with the UK MoD is a completely different thing?

@Gargron @gcupc@glitch.social @tbm Trilateral Research

https://trilateralresearch.co.uk/project/eunomia/

@Gargron @gcupc@glitch.social @tbm It's being conducted by a firm with links to the UK MoD

(source: their own website, in the "clients and partners" section)

@maple we must invent better cooling systems for the squobit

just imagine, all the communist furries in one big uwunion

@gazelle and top thing on the list of "nice things to do for/with your partner" is apparently "empty the dishwasher"

there's no hope for the species

@noelle maybe have something like you have to have the guards be able to see x% of the floorplan otherwise your bosses get suspicious

also, very forward thinking for a museum to hire a triffid as head of security

@maple swatch group is announcing their new releases later on this year but nothing they've got can beat this

@maple best new watch release of 2019
