Comment Re:I always wonder (Score 1) 55

Smoke and mirrors, as soon as a left-wing politician (Corbyn) got to lead the Labour party The Guardian's knives came out. They're trying to lick Starmer's arse but he's really slippery.

Starmer is as sociopath as the rest of them, no concern for human rights, no concern for the environment, not interested in helping the poorest in society if it means spending any money at all.

Comment Not mutually exclusive (Score 1) 36

That Alphabet got to where it is because it hires geniuses is not mutually exclusive of being able to abuse it's monopoly.

Or in other words this is the Chewbacca defense. But anyhow it is not for Alphabet to prove a negative, it is for the prosecution to show that Alphabet abused it's power.

As an analogy, 5 apples are 1 apple because they are an apple.

Your assertion and conclusion are nonsense.

I should propose a solution that is not about CO2 because? CO2 released due to mankind's activities is the main cause of global warming. The best solution is to not increase global warming further.

Comment Exasperated (Score 2, Interesting) 227

We have all of the solutions to climate change such as:

Electric / Arc steel and pig-iron smelting.
Carbon neutral cement.
Cheap electricity production
Electricity Storage (so many ways)
Electric transport for road, rail and sea.

All that's needed is for idiot people to stop voting for corrupt politicians that are getting in the way of backing solutions.

At this point we should be making the funding of further fossil fuel exploration illegal, except we're not. In the UK the gov't is continuing to throw billions of tax-payer money at fossil fuel corps encouraging them to drill for more.

1.5C rise is dead, 2.0 Rise is unlikely, this won't improve until international treaties make it a crime to not rapidly progress away from fossil fuels are enacted. But right now the only treaties being written are by corporations for corporations and then enacted by corrupt politicians.

The future is looking very bleak right now, we're going to crash hard. We're like the mythical guy who strapped rockets to his car with some of us saying we're going down a very dangerous road right now and all of the dumbasses saying no, look how fast we're progressing, this is great.

Comment Re:Only for France? (Score 1) 46

Apple can't change the 3GPP air interface specs just to appease France (or anyone really)

Uh huh, so why is this order only against Apple and not all cell-phone manufacturers? If other manufacturers can stay within a law designed to protect people then Apple, one of the richest companies on Earth should be able to too.
