Applying the razor to this, it’s more likely that a candidate who is extremely divisive and talks about persecuting and executing opponents as payback really just attracted karma.

Looks like a lot of banged legs walking through that collection. The lot appears to be designed for those big machines too. More hectares of carpark or fewer spaces.

It depends on what the publishers publish for. If it’s money then Peertube is probably not attractive.

They always say how good, important, necessary they are without any mention of the pain and suffering that they have caused in the past and the chaos that they bequeath to our kids. Definitely ban them advertising!

Thanks for the article. Your thoughts are probably similar to mine in that carbon capture probably is part of the solution but it’s hard to see how the volume of CO2 captured can be ramped up enough to be meaningful. It is certainly meaningless if we don’t stop burning fossil fuels.

36,000 tons a year and how energy is needed to sequester this piddling mount of CO2? Leaving the pre-sequestered stuff on n the ground is definitely cheaper. Bring on the carbon tax.

Well it makes sense as the people banning abortion are also making sure everyone has a gun.

I suppose that once you have laws that allow blocking one type of site then other sites will be pretty easy to be added. A precedent sort of thing. Done once then others will follow.

Pretty amazing that piracy is such a hot topic such that freedoms can be curtailed but everyone’s right to an AR15 must be protected.

Oil bosses say that the world will suffer climate calamity because we won’t give up burning oil. Or is it that they are addicted to the money and can’t give it up?

It’s a big problem and I don’t know if the science behind this has been tested. Still, every little helps!

Do we know how much there is and how much we will need? Seems like a huge problem. Maybe electrify everything and transition the economy to low carbon is a safer bet.

Is a radical idea that has insufficient study to give us confidence that it will work as intended. Research is necessary.

Certainly the major effort behind this as a solution is the fossil fuels industry as it smacks of a tech solution that deflects from the fact that we aren’t focused on rapidly reducing greenhouse emissions. There is a lot of these and the underlying problem is that CO2 pollution is continuing unabated. Greenwashing until emissions reduce.
