Nooooo! Not Naomi!
I don’t really follow her content, but I love her existence and all her efforts towards education and awareness on many topics.
I hope she’s able to find freedom again somehow.

The funny thing is that YouTube’s code is already so laggy that we all believed this without a second thought.
Arg, my first reply was completely off topic. I thought this was a reply in another post.
Yeah, it’s great that VRE is cheaper now, but we shouldn’t celebrate companies/countries for just taking the cheapest option. It drowns out the legitimate celebration of the companies/countries that are actually making hard decisions by funding renewables when they aren’t the cheapest option, investing in long-term R&D, taxing carbon, fixing bureaucratically-entrenched perverse incentive structures, etc.

An increasing proportion of renewables doesn’t necessarily mean a decrease in overall carbon output. Our per-person electricity consumption keeps rising. AI, electric cars, crypto, air conditioning to mitigate climate change, etc. all demand more electricity each year as they become more popular.
Wins don’t come from new growth being sustainable. We need to be actively shutting down the existing unsustainable energy production. It doesn’t matter whether this is done by replacing it with renewables, or by reducing our consumption with e.g. efficiency standards for AI and cars.
China is also still building new coal plants at a truly alarming rate.
Don’t let heavy carbon emitters steer the narrative this way. Building renewables is just the cheapest way to keep expanding your energy grid at there moment, but if you’re not actively taking power plants offline to reduce carbon emissions, you’re not actually getting greener.
EDIT: LMAO I’m being mass-downvoted. This is why it’s important to think critically about every headline about China - there is an army of propagandists trying to make sure you only see the good stuff.
Plural? How many idle games are we talking here?
Fucking finally! Now when will they let me transfer all the games I had to put on an alt account back to my main?
(Ok really it’s just 1 game that I haven’t played in ages. I’m not that horny. I just hate having multiple accounts as it eats up headspace)
ooo, I love this. It reminds me of how nice C#'s LINQ is…
“Pipeline style” DB queries have some interesting advantages as well:
I still use Google for ~95% of my queries because I like real sources, comprehensive documentation, and not having to read a wall of text when a one-line answer would have sufficed.
ChatGPT is a good replacement for Quora/Stack Exchange for explaining general knowledge stuff like other languages’ grammar and simple science, as well as finding authors/books/movies from descriptions when you’ve forgotten their names.
Bard is… kinda dumb. I gave it a few chances, but it was nothing compared to ChatGPT’s free tier.
100% this.
Media is culture, and IMO people have a right to participate in culture. If it’s excessively difficult or impossible to legitimately access culture, one has the moral right to illegitimately access culture, and share it so others also have access.
It’s inexcusable to refuse to directly sell media. The internet has made it easier than ever to trade access to media for money. Geo-restricted subscription services should be a nice add-on option for power-consumers, not the only way to get access to something.
