Google’s emissions are up 48% in 5 years. Microsoft’s are up 30% since 2020. Those soaring figures are being driven by mass investments in data centers to power AI tools. Generative AI is a climate disaster and data center expansion must be stopped.

USA regular guy here, is this because people who previously voted Tory voted for several other parties, sometimes Labour but not necessarily?

Are exit polls the same as they are in the USA? Or are they more official over there? I know nobody really pays attention to them here

"What, to the American slave, is your 4th of July? I answer; a day that reveals to him the gross injustice and cruelty to which he is the constant victim. To him, your celebration is a sham... your prayers and hymns, your sermons and thanksgivings ... are, to Him, mere bombast, fraud, deception..."

This is so important because the fascists are depending on us to be cynical and hopeless. It is literally part of their strategy.

If Biden loses in Nov, well, that’s a disaster for everybody, but not especially for Joe Biden, he’ll be okay (unless revenge indictments start flying) but if Trump loses, that’s 100% absolutely a massive catastrophic personal tragedy for him, and I really hope you all join me in making that happen

Keep saying it loud and often: generative "AI" is not intelligent, it is riddled with inescapable errors, it is structurally incapable of ever doing half the things its hypers claim it will do, most of it is snake oil in search of a mark to scam, and it's environmentally destructive to boot.

Biden’s climate policies have created a clean energy boom. The Inflation Reduction Act and the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law are huge climate wins. They will double the clean electricity we have by 2030, & kids will breathe easier. Thats great, let’s do more. www.nytimes.com/2024/05/23/c...

It’s so weird that the authors of the 14th amendment banned racial discrimination *and* insurrectionists holding high office. Almost as though those issues were somehow linked.

Led by Justice Alito, SCOTUS again takes over fact-finding.They simply will not defer to findings of a trial court that favor Black claimants in civil rts cases, women’s groups in abortion cases, or parties opposing state entanglement w/religion. They’ll either remake the law or redo the facts.

Reminds me of the times in my life that I’ve shared something I’ve created and someone says “you should sell these!” I know it’s meant well, and I take it as a compliment, but it makes me a bit sad that our society has built up this idea that our creations are as good as they are marketable.
