Offshoring emissions through used vehicle exports
This is why it is almost impossible to solve climate problems without entire humanity effort. There are always the poor countries to sweep those issues under their carpet, which, of course, are happy to buy a cheap shit, since nobody there can afford anything else. It is the same with the garbage and waste, by the way. But this harmful practice is completely "normal" in our society, because it is just the trade, a pillar of the economies..
We need more trade-free resources and services, which can be naturally focused on making our environment better and not making business profitable and also can be adopted by the less developed countries since it is absolutely free to use.

...and you're assuming that here in the EU everything is fine. I'm an #ebike rider in Portugal, where out in the countryside, there's still thousands of vehicles with defective, stolen or removed emission control mechanisms, or still legal but just pre-dating effective controls. Practically all the old farmers have them.
These drivers often have to demonstrate their frustration at having their pace on tiny roads set 5km/hr slower by a bike, meaning they /have to/ struggle past, foot to the floor benching thick black toxic-smelling smoke for kilometres. Often I have to stop, wait for the fumes to clear before proceeding.

@Aaron is going to present TROM tomorrow in Hamburg at the Chaotic Computer Club event. Unfortunately he only has a small, few minutes long opportunity to present the project in a workshop-like way. We tried to get TROM to the main event but there were too many applying (over 600) so we were no accepted. We will try next year.
But awesome that Aaron is there and he is trying to spread the message.
If we will have any videos and photos we will share with you on our Friendica :)

I (Tio) will do a live for several hours to talk a bit about my plans for TROM for the next year(s). I may allow others to join in but since this is a special TROMcast about some specific updates I want to talk about, it may only be me streaming. I will post the Peertube streaming link on the same day :).

Wow. @emilymbender, University of Washington computational linguist, deconstructs algorithmic tools, aka automation.“#AI” is a marketing term dating to the 1950s, when it was employed to secure research dollars.
What is being automated?
By whom and why?
Who benefits?
Who is being harmed?
How well does it work?
Who is accountable?
What laws/regulations apply to what is being automated?Well worth the ~5 minute investment

‘The Gospel’: how Israel uses AI to select bombing targets in Gaza
And here we are, folks, using the modern tech to kill people more effectively. Don't forget to ask the chatgpt which people of what part of the world deserve to be anihilated today, while consuming your morning coffee..
And yeah, there's something utterly disgusting and barbaric in naming their war AI in the name of religion, the holy crusades are back..
Crazy, fucked up world we live in..

You know why the moon can perfectly cover the sun during a solar eclipse? There's nothing mysterious about it, the moon is actually getting further away from Earth as its orbit grows about 1.5 inches larger every year, it's just that all of us happen to live around the exact time where earth and moon are at the right distance away to make total solar eclipse possible - a wonderful coincide 🙂 However this also means we won't always have this kind of eclipse forever as the moon gets further away from earth.

Normally, this is where I'd say when it's dropping in Feren OS, but... due to current circumstances, the plans for when Feren OS moves to Plasma 6 are yet to be finalised.
