"To imagine that humans can simply stop being a planet-changing force is unrealistic. Thinking that we might find a way to act responsibly may be just as daft. But it seems to me a better foolishness" -Oliver Morton, quoted at https://www.anthropocenemagazine.org/2024/03/will-geoengineering-buy-us-time-to-cut-car

@oscarjiminy@aus.social This alone should be shouted about: "researchers had assumed impairment, they found autistic people applying moral principles more consistently—even to strangers, even when costly. In a world increasingly damaged by in-group bias, this isn't a deficit; it's a collective-level fail-safe feature."

@pluralistic@mamot.fr reminds us:
"Now Australia has so much solar that they're giving away electricity, with three free hours of unlimited energy every day. Stick your dishwasher, clothes-dryer and EV charger on a timer, invest in a battery or two, and fill your boots:
https://billmckibben.substack.com/p/free-electricity-like-at-no-cost "

That put me in mind that when I was a kid they used to tell us that nuclear powerhouse be too cheap to meter.
Looks like they made the wrong bet ...

Free Electricity. Like, at no cost. For everyone. Now.

Free Electricity. Like, at no cost. For everyone. Now.

Let's talk about affordability, abundance, and Australia--and why thanks to Trump we can't have nice things

@carnage4life "The legal reasoning cuts through corporate justifications like a hot knife through butter—AI implementation is a voluntary business decision, not an unforeseeable catastrophe like natural disasters or policy shifts. Courts emphasized that companies choosing to automate must negotiate with employees, offer training, or provide reasonable reassignments before showing anyone the door."

@Npars01 @heidilifeldman The Jacobin article has a sobering figure: "The “rentier share” increased from 4 percent to 14 percent of total income between 1970 and 2000. Financial profits increased by a similar magnitude over the same period. These trends are linked: much of finance’s modern activity is little more than rentierism." I wonder what it'd be now.

@An0n As someone who has recently been trying to pick up some lost threads of connection, the answer I'd suppose would be 'yes' in at least some cases. It might be that, like me, the loss of address books (back in the day) is a factor in the loss of contact.... And then busyness and the demands of family can push active re-finding out ...

@MissConstrue @riley There is a sense in which it is right bidiurnally, the issue is that without an independent corroboration, a viewer has no way to know when is one of those two times. And why would you bother? Interesting to consider also the case of my watch which gains time over a month or so. It is never right but is more useful because it is close enough for most purposes and I can make allowance for its growing inaccuracy.

My point was that in the book 1984, the surveillance was humans behind the cameras writing reports. Not automated. Ich kann nicht dass einen guten Uebersetzen machen. Entschuldigung.

Like voter surpression -people don't vote if they think it's already a done deal.
