Greenland and the north pole are not defrosted yet, and already all major oil producers are already prying to dig as much petrol as they can, they literally cannot wait.

But it'll take until 2060 before meaningful action starts, because humans only act after the disaster. It's a tendency baked in to how we operate and how we think.
I don't see that happening in 2060 or any time for that matter. We will burn all the gas, petrol and coal that is underground. All of it. I see no way to convince *everyone* that these riches should not be extracted and burned.
Were not gonna take any real action until it impacts human life in some really big way. Until then its just a number on a spreadsheet.
We're not gonna take any real action, especially when it will impact us badly, since this is the moment we will need even more energy to do damage control.
I see no way to convince people to stop burning all the coal, gas and petrol they can get their hands on. It's akin to tell them "hey, here is all this money, but you will let it lay there and try to survive another way".
Will not happen.
There is proof that Putin is behind it? It seems more credible to me that Trump (Or someone in his team) was the one releasing it.
I have to take exception to your clam your concept that America and all americans are racist, I have to tell you that While the world sees all of us Americans as the worst sort of racists, while the rest of the world is a color blind melting pot where no one is judged by the color of their skin. Well, some people want to believe that, but it ain't so. And history shows that there is plenty of racism world wide.
Bad phrasing perhaps?
He said America has a bias. He said nothing about the rest of the world. Judging by your reply, you actually agree with him.
Bad reading perhaps?
Would it be possible to use fusion to dispose of pre-existing nuclear waste?
Pre existing nuclear waste is buried and should stay buried. I see no compelling reason to dig it up as it poses no risk. It will accomplish nothing and would pose a hazard in case it is not handled properly or involved in some accident.
Not quite. Boeing executive bonus criteria were changed from quality and safety based to DEI based.
No it wasn't. That's just your fever dream.
Are you familiar with the concept of projection? Where a person sees their behavior in others?
"... a proxy statement from Boeing filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Beginning in 2022, the aircraft manufacturer changed its incentive plan from giving executives bonuses based on passenger safety, employee safety, and quality to rewarding them if they hit climate and DEI targets, according to the filing."
So the problem is not about adding a DEI target but rather removing the safety and quality targets.
The bank made an error in your favor is Monopoly's game. In the real world, when the bank made an error in your favor, at some point, you owe the money back.
You can move a Lot faster if you don't need to have a large panel with committee meetings.
At this point, it's not a technical issue, it's an adoption issue. Not so sure about your statement there.
C++ allows you to write memory safe code.
Rust mandates it.
You are wrong.
Every memory safe language has a Memory Unsafe language under the hood.
Do they? Isn't Rust compiler written in rust ?
Sure
Thanks for the link and comment. I learned something today.
Right, but not factually false, rather technically false.
You can write your own game, true, but you will agree with me that this is not what 99% of users of Yuzu are doing.
You can drive while under the influence, but it's not mandated by the automaker.
You cannot play any game legally on Yuzu. The only way to play is to commit piracy.
this is quite different.
