I don’t really agree that “everyone knows this” when everyone I know talks about environmentalism almost exclusively in terms of individual impact.

We let environmentalism become an individual issue, and that was a mistake. Can we not do this for AI? It’s a society-wide problem, not something you can solve by measuring your own personal AI footprint.

Why are you dissing on vegans? Veganism is legit, bro.

The news can’t easily report on users actually returning to piracy; who would admit to it? And how would you get data on it? Much easier to truthfully report on users who talk about returning to piracy.

There are fans of Spotify?

keepin my fingers crossed for nuclear. 🤞

🇨🇦 Pretty messed up that the NDP voted yea. :(

This site would be more compelling if it didn’t look so much like a you wouldn’t steal a car ad.

how do you know it’s going to be global?

But this proposed data center is so big, it would have its own dedicated energy from gas generation and renewable sources

Very unfortunate, as this could have been an opportunity to advance the green power agenda. Solar, wind, and nuclear are all more efficient than fossil fuels – so why build new fossil fuel plants?

I said this elsewhere, but it will have its own dedicated power supply.

no, because it will have a dedicated power station.

damn, that’s messed up.

idk why you responded to my comment with all that. Your first paragraph is, “yes, I agree, and here’s another law that’s also very similar in many countries”; which, ok, sure. But your second paragraph is completely unrelated to what I said.

basically every country that ‘“matters”’ implements some form of the DMCA

this will work until every country does this.

I don’t agree that zionism is anti-semitic per se, because it’s possible to be a zionist without implying all jews are zionists.

As pointed out on hackernews, this is likely attributed to (a) decrease in desktop usage by non-linux-users, and (b) the gaming hardware industry embracing linux (steam deck etc.)

yeah, this is why I’m #fuck-ai to be honest.
