“the areas with the highest costs tend to have the lowest cumulative emissions. In other words, the problems are felt most keenly in the countries that made the smallest contributions to them.”
I deeply feel this. Back in my home country of Bermuda, the ecosystem is already experiencing disrepair. It’s entirely possible that it will be nearly all underwater by 2050. And yet the wheels of late stage capitalism continue to turn there with the “all in” surrounding crypto/fintech.
The damages from carbon fueled climate change ALREADY costing more than building New Energy to end carbon.
Canada in one year above billions in other climate damage lost 30 billion trees
30 billion trees, the Canadian #Climate Wildfire Catastrophe🇨🇦🔥🚨in 2023, is more trees than would be cut in three centuries of logging. Canada isnt 200 years old. Paris east to Bonn Germany, down deep into the Alps, across west to Lyon in France. All burned into the soil
The number I’ve used for years to represent the “worse case” scenario is six degrees, as in “by the end of this century, average global temperatures will have risen by six degrees since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution”. I call it the worst case because it’s where we’d be if we did nothing about climate change.
I did not take into account that people would actively make it worse. It is now a distinct possibility that all civilisation would collapse this century.
Hey "The Worlds Fastest ImageWriter" just got a print job from #globaltalk! Thanks! #MARCHintosh lives all summer here. VCF East is done and so I'm finishing unpacking and turning back to the Mac, esp since I have a color 040 machine to play with now.
I saw that link doesn’t work, so I put it in the Wayback Machine and found out the Trustworthy Computing website broke many years ago, and MS just left it broke.
It shocks me and doesn’t shock me how everyone is susceptible to manual workaround errors, no matter how large or professional the organization is. https://infosec.exchange/@ketumbra/112280674679448920
I think what happened here is the Trustworthy Computing website was hijacked inside MS to become the “Trust Centre” website, as it has the same layout - except security was removed as a category from navigation (entire menu shown) and link broke.
Instead it’s essentially a marketing page about product upsell.
I feel bad for Charlie and Bret as they have a boulder to move up a cliff. There is a link to Microsoft Secure Future Initiative blog, at least, if you can find the site.
As someone working on LLMs and building “Agent” like behavior in apps, I knew the latency aspect would be rough. It’s still early days and these systems allowing interoperability are held together with bubble gum lol.
We’ll get there but to your point, hardware ain’t the solution. So much harder to ask someone bare that pain + $700
in AI’s defense, no one has come after telecom for it’s over promises of 5G ever catching up. Humane even started their own wireless carrier just to be part of the game.
For a superstitious lot such as our society I’m thinking Bermuda Air’s logo is a little too close to a triangle…if you know what I mean… #aviation #humor #skepticism
If you have a website hosted on Hetzner, take it off from their servers immediately. This morning I woke up with my instance down and this message in my mailbox:
"Dear Ms...
We have noticed irregularities on your account, so we unfortunately cannot have a contract with you at the present time. We have therefore had to close your account.
In general, if customers give us incomplete or incorrect information, we have to close their accounts.
We cannot provide any information on individual cases. Thank you for your understanding.
Kind regards"
Without giving any warning or reason, they deleted my account with everything inside (Thankfully we have back ups every 12 hours). I couldn't even log into their site to open a ticket. They deleted my entire instance.
I replied the email asking about what information was incomplete or incorrect. Their answer was "we can't provide you this information due to security reasons"
It was a Kafkanian situation. They didn't ask me for more information or indicate what was wrong. They didn't even warn me that something was wrong. They didn't give me at least 10 minutes to look for a new server. They deleted my account and any possibility of having access to their website in an unilateral decision. And I learned that, interestingly, this has already happened to another progressive instance. Another curiosity is that they host the website of AfD, the far-right-almost-nazi German party.
In other words: a progressive and feminist instance is overthrown without explanation. An LGBTIQA+ instance is also taken down with no justification. But a far-right website is comfortably hosted in there, for years now, because they are the good guys according to Hetzner.
In case you need a recommendation for a free speech host that uses that term in context of feminists and LGBTQIA+ people but not neonazis, then look into 1984 Hosting.
I think they have a predefined VPS image for Mastodon even.
Disclaimer: I contract for them, so I know a thing or two about how the sausage is made there.
@alda 1984 is cool, also the only domain registrar that isn't trying to mislead their customers or setting prices based on how "valuable" a name is @Ursalzona

No need to fret, CyberSuck owners. At least about the stainless steel not looking great after anyone so much as spits on it (or you, deservedly so) when all you need is a whole lot of:
one is in desperate need of a medical doctor considering to purchase one of these, only proving a serious lack of taste and never ending worship of your idol 😇
@cygnathreadbare "The accelerator pedal cover slides off and gets stuck under a panel and locks the accelerator pressed down and keeps the Cybertruck stuck at maximum velocity" I think Imperator Furiosa has the same improvement in her war truck. 🤔
@fkamiah17 Here’s some Stateside chilling effect, holding protest organisers fully liable for the behaviour of all protesters, however loosely affiliated.
@BashStKid Fucking hell. There's some really dark stuff going on in the States. There are still parts of the Policing Bill that are coming into effect here though - it's by no means over, Cruella or not.
first time I'm hearing about this?!! Freaking Eh man! Not states I consider shining beacons of literally anything, but still sucks for the people stuck there will now even less recourse to oppose those in power. Doesn't bode well for the rest of us at all...
A part of 1st Amendment right in the U.S. Consitution is the right to assemble... The Supreme Court's job is to decide if laws are made in accordance to the Constitution.
THIS IS NOT! WHAT DID THEY DO???
You guys gotta stop this... You guys gotta hit the streets...
@gpumoto I have organized quite a few protests. As the organizer I always knew that I had a responsibility to make efforts to keep them peaceful. That's the history of our first amendment right in the USA.
Hopefully, the jury won't side with the cop in this case, but I don't personally feel that the Supreme Court should have given a pass to allow political violence.
@GreenFire @gpumoto As the article points out, any member of the police, KKK, Proud Boys, or 3-letter agency could infiltrate any protest and anything they do would sabotage the organizer and everyone’s right to assemble, if this stands. And the thing to do to unseat this is to get SCOTUS to rule on a different case.
That the 5th Circuit would go after DeRay is just awful.
@skry @gpumoto I'm not going to read the court case, filings and rulings so if it is as you assert, I have no idea of your qualifications legally though, that sounds bad which is just another reason to help get out the vote for Democrats.
The anarchists were the ones that disrupted one of my peaceful protests with political violence, but I wasn't able to be held liable because I made a point of doing all I could to make it clear that ours was a lawful, peaceful demonstration.
The 5 circuite court refused to hear the case again. The ACLU is hoping a different case precedent will preceed this one. Without the SCOTUS shooting this down courts may choose which precedent they follow.
@skry @gpumoto It does seem like a helpful description:
“After today’s news, people should not be afraid that they’ll face a ruinous lawsuit if they exercise their rights to protest. The Court just last year affirmed that negligence can never be the governing standard when it comes to speech, and Justice Sotomayor suggests it simply didn’t need to say so again here,” said Vera Eidelman, staff attorney with the ACLU Speech, Privacy and Technology Project.
If an Amazon driver employeed by amazon assaults someone, the corporation isn't liable. If a single person at a protest causes violence, the organizers of the protests are liable.
I really expected better from Vox. This is legal clickbait and ragebait. From Sotomayor’s statement respecting denial of certiorari (which is *not* a dissent from the denial):
Someone needs to organize a million e-car convoy and go sap Texas’ grid dry.
Also, how’d Loozianna so quickly and quietly charge about 300 years backwards ahead of Texas and Florida? They are completely fucked in the soppy wet boot state. 😟
This is completely unconstitutional. What about the first amendment? Only for insurrectionists and White Supremacists? The "Supreme" Court must now be disbanded as it exists in its current corrupt form. Either by term limits, impeachment, or indictment. They are preparing for complete corporate billionaire takeover of the government. They are already doing it. Cop City.
"So, if protest organizers can be sanctioned for the illegal action of any protest attendee, no one in their right mind would ever organize a political protest again."
Unless their name is Donald Trump. Because that's how privilege works.
And if you're reading this, you do not have privilege. Not nearly enough.
Hence my problems with and contempt for the courts of law. If they make an incorrect or unjust ruling, which they often do (I call them “Dred Scott decisions”), there is nothing that the average citizen can do about it but accept it and be glad it wasn’t even worse.
And this ruling is an archetypal Dred Scott decision. It’s obviously wrong and blatantly unconstitutional, but can’t be appealed without splitting the country.
Wow, TED Talks have *really* gone downhill since I last watched one of their videos (that would have been the Simone Giertz one she did right before her brain tumor surgery).
"I want to dispel some of the myths about Writer’s Block, and undo the mysteries that surround the condition. What’s happening when we feel blocked? What can we do to find our way back to the keyboard? Can we accept Writer’s Block as a potential ally to our creativity?"
"The first thing that needs to be said is that writers get blocked almost constantly. During the composition of this very paragraph, I stopped typing thirty-seven times (I counted), stumped as to what I wanted to say next, and how. I got up and made a snack. I went outside to chase away the woodchuck living beneath our storage shed. I came back inside and turned off the app that turns off my internet and spent a solid half hour researching how to poison a woodchuck."
"I considered what would happen if I poisoned the woodchuck—or worse yet, the baby woodchuck—and my wife found out. I made a bunch of linguistic tweaks, most of which I unmade, before erasing the whole paragraph and starting over. At every phase of this extremely shitty and inefficient process, I was suffering a block, a moment in which doubt and indecision overtook my faith. I am still eyeing this paragraph suspiciously."

As right-wing claims of indoctrination in public education surge, the story of two teachers explores what happens when such claims come from inside the classroom.
in the U.K. ‘public schools’ aren’t the same as in the US, they’re what you’d call private schools. Our ‘public schools’ are mostly known as ‘state schools’ with a few being based on a particular religious belief. ‘Public schools’ produce too many politicians and are, usually, set up as ‘charities’. When they were initially formed they served a purpose, as there were no state schools and education was severely limited and restricted. They don’t want educated masses!
And I sure as shit don't need to give assholes scribbling bullshit masquerading as news any clicks. Why do you keep giving asinine, lying articles amplification? Why aren't you using #screenshots to make your point? Please.
Sometimes I can instantly tell that an article can kill brain cells from just the headline alone, and this is one such instance. Who quits public school over supposed “liberal bias” (whatever that means to these morons)?
dunno. i think the 'proper perspective' would be that the far right is indoctrinating kids to think that the only perspective that matters is the one coming from rich, white people.
One of the best ways to bond with your kids is through coding! This Sunday, why not try coding up a classic game with Pygame? It's a fun and easy way to introduce your child to the world of programming. Check out this quick getting started guide and have a happy Funday! #programming #stem #python
Hello, young coders and coding mentors / parents! Today we’re diving into an exciting first project perfect for kids based on Pygame – building a Pong clone.
my millennial colleague says ellipses evoke a sense of impending doom or tension for her generation … so she doesn’t understand why we do it … (da da daaaa) 🤣🤣
I was told this was an ADHD thing (just like using parenthesis to insert a thought into a somewhat related sentence).
I cannot live without ellipsis or parenthesis when I communicate through text (also I overdo it on emojis to help convey my emotions so people know how I'm feeling when I type things... I don't know if that's related or not though). 😆
GenX here ... I do this but I picked up that habit around 2005-06 through an early and long-dead blogging experiment at The Washington Post where a WaPo vice president wanted my blogging style to emulate Herb Caen's "three-dot journalism" from an earlier era of the San Francisco Chronicle. I had no idea who Herb Caen was but printed out a bunch of his old columns to absorb his punctuation use and other writing quirks.
In homage to the legendary San Francisco columnist, a round-up of recent news on Guantanamo Bay... Texas gerrymandering... Proposition 8... the Super Bowl...
Today’s exhibit: people on #Threads complain that it’s not good for news, example yesterday. We know that, because Meta has said over and over they de-emphasize news.
But that’s what the #fediverse is for! Somebody will build the worlds best news feed and you can subscribe right there from Threads (once they are done with their ActivityPub implementation) and any other fediverse application.
At some point the power users have to realize that Threads is just not being build for them but to monetize the normies. I think Meta does want the disproportionate amount of content they produce but don't want to build all the features that this relatively small crowd needs. This is one reason why federation makes sense for Threads.
July last year, @baldur wrote https://softwarecrisis.dev/letters/llmentalist/ and I just found out about it from Gary Marcus' blog. Worthwhile and entertaining read.

The comments on a video about solutions to solving political divide in FOSS includes scolding him about acknowledging that LGBT people do actually exists is being political really highlights where the problem lies and it isn’t with the openly LGBT members and their supporters. Nor is the solution buying into the “apolitical” solution of erasing the open existence of minorities either. Fuck that noise. #foss #OpenSource #lgbt #politics
A YouTube video I started watching this morning. The impetus for that was apparently some strife in a FOSS project around the usual crap. I made the mistake of reading the comments even though I know better than to do that.
This was the most honest and sensible analysis of the things we are seeing with this streaming service. I subscribed it to be able to watch Lower Decks and, guess what... Is one of the services that has the least loyalty to its own products, it is unbelievable (the other is Max).
@factolvictor To be fair, I think all streaming services are struggling with content loyalty. Go on any forum discussing a Netflix price hike, and you’ll find legion of complaints about all the shows cancelled after S1 or S2. HBO at least has tried to circumvent that with miniseries, explicitly targeting a single season or a set number of episodes.
I think the issue lies with the fact that streaming companies’ objectives don’t align with viewers’.
After some digging in, I was able to debug the issue and work on a fix thanks to ChatGPT
Seriously, ChatGPT is a life saver, I'm not an ops person but I was able to use the tips it provided to diagnose the issue, and after learning a bit about GRUB and shit I was able to fix it properly.
I'll be paying more attention to kernel updates and implementing a new update procedure + adding another standby app server to prevent this in the future.
Amazing stuff, thank you for sharing the "behind the scenes".
Perhaps I am missing a piece of information (and that's on me) but do you perhaps a staging or test server/environment setup? As in, a separate server/instance that gets OS/docker/whatever underlying system updates first, prior to it going on the live one?
If not, it might be something to look into. Having a staging environment can help catch these kinds of things. That said, it will cost some time and thus money
@ariadne Good question, we do have a separate DB server and once I finish migrating old local media to S3, I can add multiple app servers and a load balancer.
It do be kinda impressive that such a large fedi instance (using php) can scale this much on a DO VPS!
Apple's gaslighting tour of web developers and regulators is a moveable feast for the eyes. Which jurisdiction will be next!?
Why the UK, of course. The gall to claim leadership on WebGPU *when it isn't shipped on any FruitCo browser* more than a year after Chromium launched it. And JFC..claiming leadership on Web Components? Taking the mick, and hoping CMA don't notice.
And without saying things I'm not allowed to (because of the secrecy Apple demands regarding Interop development), I will simply summarize Apple's points regarding Interop '23 and '24 as *fucking bullshit*.
These are lies, and the goal of these lies is to keep regulators and developers from being able to press for real change. Parasitic delay designed to serve Apple's interest in preventing true browser choice.
This, in particular, is rich af. In reality, Push on iOS is a useless parlor trick, broken by design and hidden behind a PWA install process that Apple *continues* to deliberately sandbag. These are *lies*.
The kicker is that these lies follow hot on the heels of Apple taking the UK's CMA to court to pause all progress on potential browser choice last year. This added ~9 months to the investigation, delay Apple richly benefits from.
They're terrified of a functional web and don't care who they have to hurt along the way to keep browsers from not sucking on iPhones.
It's not just web standards! Apple does this in other competing communities as well. Apple is active in the WiFi standards body and *actively* tried to slow down the ranging/distance standard. Why? They had a competing tech with UWB and didn't want competition. The Wifi committee actually held a vote to strip them of power (on this issue) over their continued and intentional wrench throwing.
@scottjenson really appreciate your willingness to state when corp incentives conflict with the public good here. apple does lots of great work but this is so inefficient
@DeltaWye people are still a little terrified of the eclipse and since I have seen one (2017, with binoculars) I now know that it has been rarely described accurately and doesn't photograph easily.
The phrase "you can't look at an eclipse" is factually wrong, it should be "you can't look at the Sun during an eclipse". The difference is critical, and ignorance kept me from traveling for any eclipse before the age of 45, because a shadow box didn't sound that interesting.
My friend this year was skeptical that eclipses were anything special, but is now a complete convert. Totality (safe for bare eyes, for a total solar eclipse) is one of the coolest things to see.
@CapriciousGhost @DeltaWye virtual hug. I feel like the number of eclipses I missed before 45 is a crime and I can lay that at the feet of people who say things about eclipses while having never looked at one.
Wanna hear some bumbling idiots? The "eclipse" episode of the badly misnamed podcast, "The Complete Guide to Everything".
I listen to them because their ramblings about things they looked up on the internet are ironically entertaining, in an Abbott & Costello sort of way.
@DeltaWye just to add, since you mentioned our ancestors, I am absolutely convinced that the "biblically accurate angel" as "a ring in the sky, with eyes along the circumference of the ring, and 4 wings, and no man could stand to look at it" is a completely accurate description of an eclipse as it moves out of totality. The solar winds/corona of my first eclipse looked 100% like wispy wings, and Baily's Beads - the sun rising first in valleys on the moon, would have been the eyes.
Everyone should care about solving for "y" and any other unknown. The basics of solving for unknowns would prevent such misconceptions as "you can't prove a negative" when mathematicians and forensic scientists do it all the time. When you solve Sudoku puzzles, you do it all the time. It's important that you recognize exactly what it is that you're doing.
This made this introvert laugh :) I don't mind being amongst extroverts, but I'm happy to just sit by and take it in rather than participate sometimes.
Oh no they do! They try to make me shut up ALLL the time everwhere! Happy to chat it all up but keep running into the STFU problem! Since grade school (isolated at a table separated from the entire school) to HS and college (where I took the damned mic and made presentations at least I could talk there!) they've all been trying to make me STFU!!! 🤣
Oh yeah! Didn't stop me from chatting though... I was lucky coporal punishment was banned by the time I showed up cuz my mom (who's the opposite of a chatter box) had her lips sealed shut with duck tape (she still remembers what it felt like when they ripped it off - she was 7 or 8 and she's 86 now) 😬
@GatekeepKen Not surprised. They did that to my mom too. She also had a teacher whose trademark was an Indian burn on the kids' wrists. Facking sadist.
@VeroniqueB99 A lot of the 'old school' punishments were horrible!
Oddly enough, when I got in trouble at school, it was for talking! My voice carries, so even if other kids were talking, as one teacher said, it was my voice they could hear.
Accounts pushing disinfo/misinfo about Iran vs. Israel appear to be crowding out the few credible sources remaining on Twitter/X. As @jsrailton puts it: "Twitter is awash with a flood tide of falsehoods tonight. Some is the work of people trying to farm revenue. And some is disinformation seeking to seed specific false perceptions."
@emmreef And much, much more at stake this November.
This will be our first election in which a huge social media platform (Twitter) doesn't merely tolerate political disinformation, but actively encourages and amplifies it.
@barney @emmreef I went on Twitter and scrolled through the responses to one post. In just 10 minutes, there were no less than 50 responses that were basically stating the same thing: This would not have happened if Trump was in the WH.
Even the accounts that I trusted during the 2020 elections seem to have embraced sensationalism in order fuel the anger that keeps people tied to the platform.
@gulovsen Yes, I have found that, too. I started following a few journalists and pundits through Threads, and I ended up unfollowing some within two hours.
@Hey_Beth There have now been a few major world events that have underscored the need to be able to source valid and reliable information quickly online. Unlike years past, Twitter is no longer the place to go for accurate news. I can’t speak for other social media environments, because Mastodon is my jam, but I’ve been finding accurate news is shared quickly here by a number of accounts — including yours, @w7voa Thank you.
What do YOU think is a falsehood, @w7voa? Because I've already corrected a number of yours. Your PROPAGANDA TECHNIQUES are OBSOLETE. Kapische?
PS. I dont think GOVERNMENT FUNDED AGENCIES should be ALLOWED on #SocialMedia at all, no less #Mastodon. Go away. Stick to BROADCASTING your disinformation on Shortwave... where you can't see us LAUGHING at you. @jsrailton
And some are sitting Republican members of Congress who don't remember the time when Presidents of *either* party had the full support of the opposite party's delegation on urgent foreign policy matters!
As Terrence McNally so elegantly put it, "Old people remember. That's our function ... to remember."
they use it to make it look like they care about preventing hate speech by making racists put a space somewhere in their n-words. Could be used for a whole host of other things as well, though
I suspect this will turn out to be a much bigger deal than people currently realize, but even if it doesn't I commend you for taking these steps. And you're absolutely right about the power issue - the fact that individuals can force billion (at least on paper 😂) dollar companies to comply with the terms of open-source licenses is huge.
Truth Social is America’s “Big-Tent” social media platform that encourages an open, free, and honest global conversation without discriminating against political ideology.
@jasmin excellent, I was hoping somebody would do this! I’ll add a section to my article to link to external analysis as soon as I get back to my computer
