A decade ago, Lucy Biggers was like many people in their 20s. She believed that climate change posed an immediate and catastrophic risk to mankind, that we should rapidly eliminate fossil fuels to address the problem, that renewables are up to that task, and that our wealthy, privileged lives in the West are a mark of shame.

Climate change influencer once chums with Greta Thunberg now calls the movement a 'scam'

Well, that's good. But people who feel shame by their work and success, and having the ability to create a good life are brainwashed. Every single country in the world had the opportunity to do what we did, but all we got were complaints, hate and jealousy. Leaders here and there wasted OUR money for illegal conquests to enrich themselves, and to keep the people destitute.

They broadly arent really very techy and absolutely hate the idea of anything new. So nah they broadly hate federation and adopting any new platforms.

Especially given that the fediverse already has a culture of being actively anti racism and hate they wouldnt be able to move here without getting instantly defederated and they know this. I'm sure the leftypol commies are already here.

Ford Debuts World’s First Autonomous Car To Leave Factory And Drive Straight To Shop For Repairs

According to upper-level Ford executives, the fully self-driving car is the first of its kind to be able to make a direct bee-line from the assembly line to the nearest mechanic shop.

At publishing time, Ford had released a software update for the car which saved even more time by driving to the dump instead of a repair shop.

I decided to make a new Facebook account to try and get in touch with some foreign friends that I really don't want to lose contact with.
This is new.
I'm guessing this is Facebook's way of gearing up for the new Australian social media laws.

The Australian government wants to have facial ID mandated as age verification for all social media.
The laws already passed months ago but they don't go into effect until December.
At which point it becomes illegal for 16 year olds and under to use anything considered social media. Even YouTube.
Whole point is to force people to accept the #digitalid
I'm sure the age restriction for social media will end up getting lifted, months after going into effect, once a large enough number of people get logged out of all their social media and get a pop up telling them to sign up for digital id, and they will because it'll be soooooo convenient.

Lemmy Development Update June 2025

This was a busy month, with ~80 pull requests merged, as we're trying to get all the breaking changes we can added before the 1.0 release.

The release is still several months away, as even after finishing up the rest of the 1.0 milestone issues, we still have to add this new functionality to Lemmy-UI and Jerboa, and do extensive testing.

Here are some of the major changes made over the past month:

  • Added multi-communities (One of the most requested features).
  • Added a new rate limiting library.
  • Refactored the API structs and library for better usage in Rust projects.
  • Improved the migration diff checker.
  • Using an external library for checking invisible characters.
  • Votes are now removed when banning + removing data.
  • Added a GDPR style data export.
  • Storing upvote / downvote totals you gave to each user, and a setting to display that history next to their name.
  • Added ability to make a note for a user.
  • Added an RSS feed for modlogs.
  • Added an API action to get liked / disliked content.

An open source project the size of Lemmy needs constant work to manage the project, implement new features and fix bugs. Dessalines and Nutomic work full-time on these tasks and more. As there is no advertising or tracking, all of our work is funded through donations. Even so there is barely enough time in the day, and no time for a second job. The only available option are user donations. To keep it viable donations need to reach a minimum of 5000€ per month, resulting in a modest salary of 2500€ per developer. If that goal is reached we can stop worrying about money, and fully focus on improving the software for the benefit of all users and instances. We especially rely on recurring donations to secure the long-term development and make Lemmy the best it can be.

Is #NATO on course for #war because of the “foreign language effect”?


By speaking a second language, we can even become more rational, more open-minded and better equipped to deal with uncertainty. This phenomenon is known as the “foreign language effect” and the benefits may be an inspiration for anyone who would like to enrich their mind with the words of another tongue.


source: theguardian.com/science/2023/s…

You react more emotionally in your mother tongue because you learned this language as a child together with many emotions that you experienced as a child. You usually learn a foreign language at school where it is not about emotions and very often more about pressure. As a result, you are often much colder and more rational when making decisions in a foreign language.

In most NATO countries, English is the second language and negotiations between NATO members are conducted in English. This allows the participants to make cold rational decisions and their emotions are left out. A bad combination when it comes to establishing a peaceful world order.

‘I couldn’t believe the data’: how thinking in a foreign language improves decision-making

Research shows people who speak another language are more utilitarian and flexible, less risk-averse and egotistical, and better able to cope with traumatic memories

@Trocatintas The people of every country are the same. You get around 95% lovely people and 5% carnts. You think of your own people and you look around your friends and think that your people are great. I spent 20 years travelling the world and saw that everywhere. If you visit Iran you will meet the most friendly people you could hope to meet. I have enjoyed my trips to the US but both countries are run by carnts. Russia is a great place, I have been there 4 times and speak with Russians every day but yes, Putin is a carnt.

We don't need solar. Nuclear is better in every way if it's managed correctly.

Batteries still suck for vehicles, and they will never be as energy-dense as gasoline. They are heavy (causing damage to roads), hard to produce (generally requires slave labor of African kids in cobalt/lithium mines to get the "affordable" price), hard to recycle, and horrible for the environment.

Most subsidies to EV/battery companies end up being fraudulently wasted anyway, and I don't think Elon is an exception, though he's not nearly as bad a case as the other Obama-era renewable companies.

We've been dealing with renewable energy corruption for like 15 years now. If it was economically viable without being propped up by the government, we'd know by now. It's time to look elsewhere.

For a couple days, our CO2 detectors in the basement have been going off, intermittently for short periods of time. I had just replaced them last fall and our furnace isn't in use so I checked the hot water heater and it was fine. I was a bit baffled since there is no other possible source. Then, this morning, I woke up a half hour earlier than usual, so I extended my work out. So I happened to be down there long enough for it to happen 2x. 1/2

As a result, I was able to notice that both times it was right after the dehumidifier came on. The litter box, is right next to the dehumidifier and the self clumping litter make a very fine clay dust. Over time that dust built up inside the dehumidifier and when it blew it out, it caused the false alarm. I cleaned the inside of it and moved it away from the litter box. Hasn't gone off since. This is good, the noise was putting me over the edge and it didn't cost me any $.

This matters because I remember reading one of their big reports from 2019 called "Extending Russia" that outlined pretty clearly the perceived military and power advantages for the US, with a larger war and how interrupting operation of the Nord stream pipeline was a priority in terms of keeping Europe under the thumb for years to come.

It also outlined how extending Russia on their border will temporarily free up the middle east to expand US influence. It's all in there.
