I’m sure this will spur society to prioritise the future viability of our species survival and the state of the environment over short term quarterly profits right? … right?

I think a lot of it is also that we never bothered to use the switch to LED streetlights to fix the design issues with streetlights as a whole. So many of them are designed with no real care in their directionality. They are there to light downwards but make no efforts to minimise any directed up. A lot could be done to mitigate the effects with a better design focus to limit the lighting only to where required.

I didn’t say I agreed with the no gag order tactics. Just speculating why. I agree with you wholeheartedly on the dangers of letting him sling his angry mob at people.

I have a pet theory that he knows it’s in the future but not as imminent as he suggests (like the docs case) but if he says it’s imminent now he can spin yarns about their case being in tatters and delays being due to mistakes, etc like he tried to spin for the docs case.

It’s all about the optics to his base.

I think there’s also an element of not doing gag orders on him unless vital as he’d likely break them anyway and use any enforcement action as a call to action to his supporters to say that he’s being ‘silenced by the Biden administration’ and fuel the very fires that lead to things like Jan 6th.

He does also do a very good job in giving prosecutors evidence against him when they just let him talk.

All my deploys are written in binary on a stack of index cards that we then burn, put in a zip lock bag, encase in concrete, surround in a welded closed steel box, and throw in the Mariana Trench. The documentation sucks though.
