A thin veiled attempt at transparency by a company that fired its entire transparency department.

There's no "feels" about it. Not only has there been enough leaked evidence to show that Elon Musk specifically requested his engineers find a way to boost his specific engagement, public analysis of his posts also clearly show a dramatic step change around the same time as those leaked reports came out: https://www.qut.edu.au/news/re...

You mean those countries who have lower CO2 output now than before thanks to investing in things other than Russian gas as well? Those countries? Or are you talking about the countries who can't keep their nukes running because of the high temperatures, low river levels, or jellyfish? And you realise the shutdown had nothing to do with global warming, and not a single person claimed it did until in 2026 a particularly stupid AC on Slashdot attempted to make that comparison?

Sure, if everything you know about this year was that someone used the word heatwave you may come across that conclusion. In the meantime please go through all those you just cited, show us where we have experienced 6 successive heatwaves in one season without any rain between them. We'll wait while you continue to embarrass yourself.

If we're reading about famine it won't be about Europe. Much of the drought is currently affecting shipping not farmland because virtually all of Europe's wide spread food production are in places where the water flows to, not comes from. E.g. the world's second largest farming nation (behind the USA) and the world's largest farmers per capita (by an incredibly long shot) sits at the end of the Rhine delta - the Netherlands, and so far one single province has issued a stop irrigation warning and only for part of the day. Just because we see nice pictures of dead grass in Hyde park, doesn't mean there isn't green grass in the farm next to it.

The drought is serious, but any crop failure will materialise in a minor price increase in selected products, not in any kind of famine.

No, Americans are dumb because you instantly though that I was talking about intelligence rather than the aspect of widely adopted societal norms. Fun fact: most people don't know how to handle things they were not taught to handle growing up, nor rare events. You can see that with any disaster be they extreme hot, extreme cold, extreme wet or extreme dry. What is normal for one group is rare for another. The only thing dumb is calling someone dumb for understanding their norms rather than someone else's.

We can handle comparisons to the USA just fine, but we do very much like pointing out that Americans seem to know fuck all about their own country, let alone any other.

Let me guess, you saw the word "model" and got triggered into thinking they were talking about scientists modelling climate change, despite those models having being insanely accurate on a global scale, instead of the localised weather models actually being discussed and which are wildly more complex and have improved continuously over the past 5 decades?

Do we need to explain to you that local weather != climate like a 5 yearold, AGAIN? Pay attention in school kid.

Actually in some cases, bad, animals exist because of our worst efforts. This is one of those cases where climate change causing severe weather has once against changed animal behaviour in this case to an extent where a jellyfish bloom has occurred.

We don't celebrate all existences of plants and animals. Extensive fertiliser run-off into oceans from our farming causing blue-green algae blooms are not a good thing (they are though very much animals, bacteria specifically).
The wide spread of lionfish in the Caribbean caused by human carelessness is not a good thing, despite being very much animals (and pretty ones at that, but insanely destructive).

Jellyfish swarms have happened all over the place and have often been directly linked to climate change, overfishing, ocean eutrophication (that is farming run-off reducing dissolved oxygen in the ocean causing animals to die and jellyfish to thrive), and even our construction (jellyfish grow and thrive around flat cement constructions).

None of this is "good".

Yes. Oh sorry was that you just stating facts based on the acts of the people, or were you trying to stupidly mock this position while presenting no counter argument of your own?

Give the people what they want. And people want rage bait. This isn't a twitter problem by the way, not only do all platforms amplify rage bait, so does the media, with entire publications predicated on the principle of enraging the readership to drive engagement.

People seem to crave being angry.

My statement was about water levels as well. At no point in 2018 was shipping completely stopped. Showing a measurement at a point along a 1230km just emphasises how stupid you are.

The person who opposed Orban blames things on Orban? No shit sherlock. That doesn't mean that it's Orbans fault that a power plant that was desgned when Lazar was in power couldn't handle a water level outside of its design considerations back 30 years before Orban became prime minister. Are you really that stupid that you don't understand that ${current_admin} always blames ${former_admin} regardless even when the crisis of the day a literally unprecedented case (and before you spitle shout something about 2018, the water level wasn't low enough that any nukes were shut down back then and it didn't cause an energy crisis, so I hope your own points emphasise how dumb your arguments are).

Orban was an abject piece of shit and the worst thing to happen to Hungary across a generation, but this is not on him. Get your news from somewhere other than TikTok before it rots your brain even further than it already has.

We are very much talking about a few weeks, which is why its trivial to cope with without AC. Your old vulnerable grandpa (the people who are actually dying) is not going to get off his mobility to modify his window for a week to install a portable AC, not without a lot of help from others, and those with help are largely not the vulnerable ones. This is a non-starter.

I listed this out in another post, much of Europe has a social and an education problem. At no point were people taught the importance of drinking or seeking shade. People here see a 35deg day as an excuse to roast themselves rather than protect themselves. Ask a random Australian what the signs of heat stress are and they'll probably rattle it off to you in detail. Ask a random European and they'll stare at you blankly.

It was 36C outside 2 days ago. It was 36C in my neighbours house 2 days ago. It was under 30C in my house. They opened all their windows during the hottest part of the day instead of relying on insulation to do its thing. People here are taught, open windows when it's warm, close them when it's cold. No one mentions to close them again when it's hot.

If I could make a logical comparison between the installation of two pieces of software why should you not make a stupid reductio ad absurdum argument?

It does not. None what so ever. Permissions are not managed through installation processes anywhere on Android, and a single permission "install from 3rd party sources" popup is the only Android level permission that is required for app stores, and this will only happen on first download and is not actually the process which anyone here is talking about. That permission is also levied and required for the use of software that Google currently does not apply additional hoops to. So even if you are right (which you're not), the fact of the matter is that app stores are being treated inconsistently.

No the article says: "for consumers who aren’t OEM manufacturers , the cost of the operating system is $139 for the Home version and $200 for the Pro version."

This article is not about consumers, it's about OEMs. The article also explicitly mentions that isn't the same price OEMs pay. Seems you managed to read to the end of the article (good for you), but forgot the content 5 paragraphs earlier on the way.
