Well there's two relevant points there:

  • The 1.5 degree warming targets set by the Paris Climate Accords are based on a 30 year average. One of the main points of the video and a recent popular point of conversation for climate communicators has been that this is simply too long a time span to be used as an actionable metric. This would mean that it would take at least 15 years of average temps being that high before it officially triggers anything.
  • Current models absolutely suggest that period will start sometime in this decade, which was absolutely not the case for SOTA models in 2015

I mean actionable policy plans absolutely necessitate concrete goals. In this case, missing it seems to be more reflective of massive problems with our modeling than any sort of failure to act. When that goal was set absolutely nobody was seriously considering the possibility we would surpass it in the early 20s.

The thing to keep in mind here is that he's very much targeting kids (teenagers but still minors lacking real-world experience) and this is exactly the wrong response to that sort of phenomenon.

Pretty sure it's not. Wired is just talking about the wrong thing. Currently threads voice posts federate fine.

It's not so crazy. Most people choose a DE for the defaults

I am very much in favor of some of the things suggested (particularly dedicated threads for discussion on each new movie) and I think it would probably go a long way towards improving the real-world value of the community. I think this is particularly true as it seems unlikely that with 1.1k subscribers the community has totally filled this niche.

Do you think there is any way !moviesandtv@lemm.ee would consider some sort of deal wherein they moderate and run this spinoff community with more structured discussion, while you link to and officially endorse the community (of course contingent on ongoing good relations)? Thereby not adding any additional workload but bringing more overall value to the community members?

Yeah, doesn't seem like a ban was at all justified. This part stuck out to me:

I believe the best way to moderate a small community such as this in order to facilitate it’s growth is to be as hands-off as possible.

Except as it relates to meta-posts, huh? That's a strange choice for a supposedly community driven model.

All that said, I am very much in favor of some of the things you suggest (particularly dedicated threads for discussion on each new movie) and I think it would probably go a long way towards improving the real-world value of the community. I think this is particularly true as it seems unlikely that with 1.1k subscribers the community has properly filled their niche.

Do you think there is any way the mod of !moviesandtv@lemm.ee would consider some sort of deal wherein you moderate and run this spinoff community with more structured discussion, while they link to and officially endorse the community (of course contingent on ongoing good relations)? Mentioning @Djinn@lemm.ee

Correct me if I'm wrong but the project itself isn't dead? They're just moving to an immutable paradigm?

I don't know if that's syphilis but it sure as shit is not a paper cut

Some of the apps will struggle with higher ping rates. I have some issues on thunder

The devs actually talked about this in the AMA from a couple of days ago. Sounds like the current plan is to have all federating servers send their entire list of communities to each other on a regular basis.

The other thing that I think is worth mentioning is Lemmy Community Boost which is basically a bot that serves the same purpose.
