“Our carbon capture and sequestration process links carbon with light elements to form a viscous liquid which can be pumped deep into the planetary crust, where it will remain indefinitely”

@Unixbigot Chief HyperJustice 
was scathing when writing the majority opinion of the UltraCourt. The clear encoding in the insurance contract meant what it plainly encoded. It is the sole responsibility of the owning megaintelligence to manage infestations of carbon self-replicators. This responsibility is not diminished due to the previous use of an planet, demi-planet, moonlet or other astronomical body for waste sequestration.
The judgement notes that this action was only brought after an attempt to litigate against the Vast Unknowable Entities From Dimensions Impossible failed when it was demonstrated the contract of sale included the presence of the waste sequestration repository, as well as the mid-trial ascension of the Vast Unknowable Entities From Dimensions Impossible to phases of being beyond the Court's jurisdiction.

wrote a concurring opinion calling the plaintiffs "Fucking Slum Lords" and referring them to the SupraDimensional Administrative Tribunal. In subsequent action the SDAT ordered them to be UltraMurdered in a widely cited judgement widely praised and upheld on appeal.
I love that concept and I want to build a webring connecting indie author pages - especially if those pages have their own store.
We need to become independent from big tech. And webrings are a great way to build a trusted community for readers, at least from what I understand.
So... umm... how do I do that?
(I maintain my own website on WordPress.)
@Firlefanz someone I follow was talking about writing a new webring code snippet just recently. There's no reason we can't just do it by hand. It's just "alice links to bob, bob links to carol, carol links to dallas" etc. The tricky part is NOT basing it around a google doc or a facebook group etc :)
Edit: I might have been thinking of https://codeberg.org/robida/human.json
Ediit: or possibly https://webr.ing
Ediiit: maybe it was https://taggart-tech.com/ringspace/
Edivt: coulda bin https://docs.octothorp.es/webrings/
Well, there's CryptPad that might work instead of Google Docs, but I see what you mean.
