Carbon taxes > Carbon credits. It removes the incentive to fudge carbon reductions for profit in this way, instead only emissions are measured and the closer they get to 0, the less companies pay. The taxes can then be spent on things like doing real atmospheric/oceanic carbon sequestration by a government that doesn't have a profit motive incentivizing them to screw it up in a way that conveniently funnels zillions of dollars into top management's wallets.

You know what to do.

China is 40% and likely growing to 70% over the next two decades.

What's the plan?

China Badger don't give a fuck.

If the plan is to pray for China to have a change of heart then they should put their money into churches.

Otherwise adaptation.

The bonus of adaptation is it works even if the computer models have errors.

Which, of course they do.

Spike protein does shed - it's been measured. There are papers on NLM/NCBI. Your news sources told you that, right?

Spike is probably only a concern for breast-feeding infants, blood transfusions, and sexual relations.

There are already 'pureblood' dating apps available so the market is responding. The Japan bloodbank is moving on it too to minimize cost overruns.

Agreed, but even playing neutral is a personality.

People get confused when llm's make definitive statements instead of showing the work/probabilities.

I get it, that's more expensive to generate and queries already use too much energy, but half the users don't second-guess outputs.

I don't wish him harm but many people feel like he's not on Team Humanity.

Even Napoleon was merely exiled.

Are citizens allowed to live with those densities?

How did slavery enable those things to exist in a way that voluntary labor could not have? Voluntary labor can do anything slavery can, although perhaps with slightly lower levels of inequality.

Plato was a big thinker but he suffered from "left-brain poisoning" which leads to over abstraction, including racism, classism, political parties, communism, and other mental disorders. "Plutonic Ideals" were supposed to be a though experiment originally.

Aristotle did major work to fix Plato's fuzzy-headed thinking.

If they teach that then most people will realize they are much closer to the Helot class of slaves in Athens than to free Citizens.

The extant reality is a cleverly-designed rouse fed by selected ignorance.

Has someone written a feature to make this better and it's being ignored?

Or is this a matter of insisting someone else do something?

TBH it sounds like we need a standard for pre-rendered blurb and thumbs.

Extended OpenGraph for thumbs? Or does that exist?

Social media is moving to distributed no matter who dislikes that idea, so make it as efficient as possible, yes, but don't bitch about reality.

> Some of them are years old.

Decades, even.

You should learn about Columbus's colonies.

Ubuntu is a weird borkage of Debian which was mostly obsoleted by Bookworm's inclusion of firmware.

Unless you need automatic ZFS support in the installer then install Bookworm.

There's a ZFS howto that just needs a LiveCD image. The lxqt image works better than GNOME.

If only the TLAs handled them with the Jihadist-level seriousness they deserve, then their complete lack of opsec would actually threaten their operations...I don't think Jan 6th caused any significant change their sadly. US law enforcement and intellligence agencies still handle domestic right-wing militias with kid gloves.
