@PK_majora @noinconsistency Absolutely everything digital you've ever done goes through data centers. Yes, you fucking need them.

@noinconsistency i mean we definitely don't need *all* that fuckin corn anyway cuz most of it goes towards ethanol or plastic rather than food
but we need like none of the data centers so lmao

@Basic_Shapes1 @DeivonDrago Cool, so we can use any pseudo-scientific nonsense classification system we don't believe in to test people? Like if I start talking about phrenology, a good woman will be respectful in disagreeing that head shape has moral significance?
English
@DeivonDrago She's clearly not suggesting astrology works, so your argument that it's a "bad take" is entirely irrelevant. She's talking about using it to gauge if a man is a know-it-all asshole, or if he can be tactful and respectful, while disagreeing.
English
This is a bad take.
Astrology ought to be a non starter, unless you are being facetious about it.
Taking astrology seriously suggests that you are epistemically broken. Possibly scientifically illiterate.

@official_taches Am I missing something? Why rotate? What threat vector am I missing here?

@CaptainClaood Or plants, which requires a fuckton less...everything to produce.

This is disgusting and unnatural.
I propose we make it out of plastic instead.

@HAv2RtrnVdeoTps Good job not reading past the headline. It's about them not being free for corporations to use and abuse, which is exactly what we want. We want companies to price in any environmental destruction their products cause. (or socialism, but w/e).
English
Charging people for the air they breathe? Interesting!
Samantha Smith@SamanthaTaghoy
“Water, soil, and oxygen should not be infinitely accessible. They are assets that should be included in global economic balance sheets.” This is not satire. The World Economic Forum wants to monetise breathing.

@PalmyrPar It isn't. It's a decent, not great, Ubisoft Star Wars game. Depending on how much you like the formula or Star Wars, you might even love it.
English
We’re not doing Star Wars Outlaws revisionism. This game was and still is a steaming pile of shit.

Ubisoft formulünü mü özlediğimdendir bilmiyorum ama bu oyuna fena haksızlık yapılmış gibi hissediyorum oynadıkça. Ubisoft nefretinde boğulup gitmiş.

@browndwarf6 Yes, like we all loved the empty world in BOTW in between doing a Korok seed, or a shrine, or a Korok seed, or a shrine....
More nicely put, people like open world games for different reasons.
English
I hate the idea that open world needs to be filled to the brim with content to be any good, like any emptiness is already a flaw

@terminallyOL It's like with Breath of the Wild, where an empty, vast world was suddenly a pro. It's a rationalisation because noone can just like a game, it all has to fit into whatever narrative they want, it has to be "objectively" true.
English
it was like, five or six years ago, i wanna say when AC valhalla came out, that a game map like this would have been called "ubislop trash" and "junk to fill up an open world" so i'm just kind of confused as to why this is raising the bar and good now

@PittBlu213 @NothingIsArt So the alternative is to forcibly breed and kill them by the millions? What the hell does nature have to do with it? WE MADE EVERY SINGLE PIG exist! We're not plucking them from nature.
English
@NothingIsArt You should watch the nature channel sometimes You will have nightmares for life once you see how animals die naturally 😂

This proves humane slaughter is an oxymoron. Even the “best” slaughter/stunning methods are still barbaric.
Interesting STEM@InterestingSTEM
This is how electrical stunning is performed in slaughterhouses. A controlled electric current is applied for a few seconds to cause immediate loss of consciousness before slaughter. The goal is that the animal does not perceive pain during the process.
English
@MKFenris Yeah, in an industry where the shearers are paid per sheep, and that involves sharp, fast moving metal, the invisible hand of the free market will somehow take the sheeps mental and physical wellbeing into account.
Not like every single other industry....

This can't be, Peta assured us they skin sheep alive.

@SpaceKoala Sure, in a world where we have infinite capital and time, we can build it all. In the the real world, renewables together with batteries and LNG for spikes is the only realistic option.
English
Solar is good. Nuclear is good. Wind is good.
Do not let the fossil fuel dinos turn supporters of the future of power against each other.
Build more clean power, and stop basing society entirely on chemical energy stored in the ground.
Bbchtr@Bbchtr_bsrvr
English
The "but what about aliens or people 10,000 years in the future who want to dig it up!?" concern about nuclear waste is retarded. Who gives a shit? It is vastly more important to have cheap energy than to worry about some random asshole 10,000 years from now getting radiation poisoning.
David AttenBruh@AlHendiify
Now show us 10,000 years worth of safely stored waste and how you communicate to a society 500 years into the future that no longer speaks the same language that this is an incredibly dangerous material.
English
@salty_said_what @MeggGawat @teotwp3 Well, how many of the people suddenly discovering personal responsibility of other people for AI use are going to adjust their meat consumption?
It's hard to believe they care, when they didn't before, for their personal impact.
English
@MeggGawat @teotwp3 Love that you're pointing out other things we should quit, but two things can be true. This is the leading edge of AI queries. Those stats that will change quickly, as more of data centers are built, and the AI footprint will continue to grow.
English
You would need to make ~300,000 ChatGPT queries to use the same amount of water used in 1 non-vegan burger. Stop eating animals.
(Vegan burgers made from plants use 99% less water, 93% less land, tastes the same, is far healthier, and no animal cruelty: css.umich.edu/publications/r…)

can u guys stop using ai

@USA_Polling Renewables are absolutely the better choice right now. Being pro-sanity is being pro-renewables, not anti-nuclear. Nuclear just isn't worth it in most cases, for the majority of power, compared to renewables.
English
Sometimes I believe the conspiracy theory that anti-nuclear environmentalists are just oil and gas astroturfed organizations
𝕊𝕠𝕔𝕚𝕒𝕝𝕚𝕤𝕥 𝕊𝕪𝕤𝕒𝕕𝕞𝕚𝕟 💾@reset_by_peer
FYI, this is what 20 years worth of safely stored nuclear waste looks like. You can fit it in a third of an average convenience store parking lot.
English
@avanzinigrande @bonevoid That's a whole other sentence. Where did they say that?
Both are connected by the dehumanization, the othering, and the beio essentialism required to make such sweeping statements.
On the other hand, both are art, and art isn't always a 100% accurate statement.
English
@Zoiduniver @NlCOMACHIAVELLI I think this is partly just because they constantly thought they were writing the last season, so they never got to plan far into the future.
English
@NlCOMACHIAVELLI Her story wouldn’t be as bad if she actually learned from what happens in previous seasons, she always goes back to square one and just starts being immature😭😭😭😭
English
Dawg she coulda one shot him and I still wouldn't care about her. Hell, powerscaling wise she's a beast. I just don't care for her. She sucks dude. Her story sucks. And that's not her fault, it's the writers who fucked her.

Das Verbot von Plastikstrohhalmen wurde nicht mit Klimaschutz begründet
Kolja Barghoorn@MitAktien
Übrigens, eure Regierungen haben euch eingetrichtert, dass ihr mit Papp-Strohhalmen das Klima rettet, während sie ganz Europa mit CO2 Kriegs-Maschinen in Grund und Boden rüsten. let that sink in

@KlendathuCap Ok, so nuclear reactors would be the cheapest, most reliable option for energy independence in Europe? Is that the statement you're making here? Renewables aren't an option, why exactly?
English
Since Russia invaded Ukraine 4 years ago the EU has commissioned 3 new nuclear reactors versus decommissioning 5 for a net of -2.
Stephen Stapczynski@SStapczynski
Europe faces its biggest energy crisis since Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022 🚨 Qatar shut production at the world's biggest LNG export plant after an Iranian drone attack. That facility produces ~20% of global LNG supply Europe will need to compete with Asia for LNG

@Benthamsbulldog Most ppl pedophilia automatically leads to CSA because they also believe that being a straight man leads to rape given the "opportunity". It's just "boys will be boys" applied to all men.
It's obviously wrong, for the record.
English
I just hate this lowbrow exercise in being aggressively ignorant to score virtue points. No, being a pedophile is being attracted to children. The crime is sexually abusing children. If a person feels attraction to children but doesn't abuse them, they don't get arrested.
Mike Lee@BasedMikeLee
No, it’s a crime This is delusional
