Green Economy demands resource colonialism

Yet we can’t escape the hype. It seems like almost every day we hear a story about how ‘cheap’ hydro, wind, solar and biomass have delivered 50%, 70%, 100% of electricity demand. It sounds amazing, like the energy problem is almost solved if we only believe a little more in these new magic technologies. There’s a part to this story that gets conveniently left out.

“Where is humanity? Where is leadership? Is this a post-shame world, and how do we not slip into anger and rage that cannot be channelled?”

“We can ask these questions, but we know the answers. #Israel has been clear in what it’s doing, and this is being documented in real time by medical workers, by journalists.”

“It has been repeated by the Israeli leadership itself so many times: to use starvation, to make Gaza unliveable, to ethnically cleanse Gaza.”

In yet another harrowing scene from Gaza, Israeli occupation forces bombed tents sheltering displaced Palestinians in al-Mawasi, Khan Younis, and Beit Lahia.

The attack left scores of martyrs and wounded, including children, whose cries sent chills down people's spines as they were rushed to hospitals.

The war in the Gaza Strip has reached one of its darkest periods, as Israel’s blockade of all food and supplies enters its 12th week and the military wages another major offensive against Hamas.

Hundreds have been killed in recent days, experts have warned of a looming famine and doctors say overwhelmed hospitals are running out of medicine to treat even routine conditions.

#AI is killing the joy I feel with a lot of things lately. That's not a great feeling. But you can explain it if you compare AI with frozen pizza.

@Blf_tpe The constant stream of knowledge that's always available is called Wikipedia, and being able to use a search engine, and we've had it for over two decades.

@Gargron hi ! I’m editing my answer because it’s you :mastodon: I think AI is a big enabler for FOSS as it makes FOSS and Linux way more accessible for non-tech persons like me. Starting on Linux and needing a bit of DIY in one’s software takes time at first, and ChatGPT makes the process fun and improves dramatically the learning curve.
