#Peertube monetization thread incoming 𧡠π
OK no doubt that when it comes to #streaming platforms, #enshittification is real, and frankly, I think we're all tired of it. So lately, I've been thinking of some of the ways #FOSS platforms, particularly PeerTube, can attract creators, but of course we can't do that without some form of monetization of content. And there's been alot of discussion about how to do that. Here's just my ramblings about that.

Een koude sanering in de landbouwsector, is niet wat het lijkt:
βUit onderzoek van de Wageningen Universiteit blijkt dat vooral kleinschalige boeren hiervan de dupe zullen zijn; bij het wegvallen van een paar procent omzet schrijven zij sneller rode cijfers dan boeren in de intensieve veehouderij.β
Het zijn de kleinschalige boeren, juist een mogelijke oplossingsrichting, die we weggooien met het badwater van de agro-industrie.

It says something about the state of politics & (so-called) political leaders that when I heard there had been a second (potential/possible) attempt on Donald Trump's life.... I immediately thought - 'set-up; he's trying to gain ground back lost after the Presidential debate'...
I have no evidence or reason (really) to suspect this, but Trump has so corrupted politics that it no longer seems implausible....
I'm saddened that that is where my mind went....

βInitial reports suggested two people were firing at each other. However, sources said investigators now believe the Secret Service agent was the only shooter.β
That anyone could be in the βvicinityβ of a shooter in the US seems entirely possible to a Brit like me. How close is the βvicinityβ?
But the fact that it was his campaign manager reporting this first rather than the police or secret service perhaps says something too.
"On average, a single deep learning-based paper generates 3,297 kilograms of CO2 equivalents" arxiv.org/pdf/2408.08203
In 2023, there were ~16k #deeplearning #recsys papers published according to Google Scholar .
3.3 tonnes x 16k = 52.8 tonnes of CO2.
Meaning that: #recsys research emits roughly the same amount of CO2 annually as the British Virgin Islands. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_β¦

Comparison of 1934 with 2024 is eerie, Trump and MAGA association with Hitler and Nazis is much too closely matched.

"#Project2025 the blueprint for a second #Trump term, includes plans to remake Americaβs agriculture and nutrition policy at every turn.
The plan explicitly calls to ignore climate risks, viewing climate policy as unrelated to agriculture.It would deregulate the USDA,loosening oversight over what goes into what we eat and drinkβeven baby formula. It would even kick hundreds of thousands off of food benefits."

The standard wisdom is that academic careers, especially early, are harmed when academics don't jet around the world for in-person meetings. This article suggests that the importance of this travel is overstated, while the carbon cost is clear.
