  • The overturn of Chevron is only significant in that courts, particularly lower appeals courts, won’t be forced to accept agency interpretations on law. They still can if that’s the better of the two. It’s a big development in APA law but it is just on how laws get reviewed when contested.

    Having not looked into the drug scheduling system much I can’t say for certain on that particular topic. But I wouldn’t be shocked if something like an interpretation on paraphernalia by the DEA got shot down.

    If you want some good from the Loper Bright case keep in mind that it limits new presidents from coming in and appointing biased ‘experts’ to agencies to create new interpretation of law to aid their causes. This is a double edged sword. But I think with time we willl benefit from the end of the practice and we will settle in to a more stable set of administrative rulings that doesn’t shift every 4 years.







  • Here’s a few on reports:

    -If you think it merits a report report it.

    -If you’re unsure if it breaks a rule DM a mod.

    -Idealy on a report write the rule # broken. If you’re typing past three sentences it’s may have unnecessary info.

    -If someone is breaking a “don’t be mean” rule, the answer isn’t for you to break it too.

    Here’s a few non report ways you can help:

    -Set a positive tone.

    -A lot of good posts/comments probably never get heard because people think it’s too lower effort or no one is interested.

    -Crosspost to related communities to help people find related communities.

    Reach out to the seller. Assert to them that you own that IP and that it was released with a limited license that doesn’t include their sales. Say that they need to either stop or purchase a license from you to continue. If they don’t stop or want to get a license now is the point for you to contact an IP lawyer.

    You could go straight to the lawyer option but this should save you some money and possibly resolve it without outside help.




  • Completely different angle towards the question but Metro 2033 (and sequels) might be a good source of inspiration. Not space themed but there might be some elements that can be a source of inspiration.

    It’s about a post nuclear war Moscow where to survive humanity has set up a series of interlinked communities in the underground metro tunnels. The book talks a lot about the daily life in the stations. One is known for growing mushrooms used in tea. One was burnt down leading the rest of the system to strictly control fires. Another gained a reputation as a capital like station because it’s entrance was next to a university and government building.

    Not a true hard sci fi book (has things like irradiated mutants) but a lot of thought went into the logistics of living in the metro.
