The bald eagle could have easily gone extinct. But we did all sorts of "woke" things protecting it legally, ran conservation and study programs, banned DDT (that was good for other reasons too) and in 2007 they were removed from the endangered species list.
Likewise pine forests could be dead from acid rain.
The ozone could have a huge hole.
We CAN take care of nature when we want to. And the successes have been worth it.
I feel like we forget this, you know?
The system is working *exactly* as intended...
Me, an idiot: “So, kids, by setting the thermostat a little lower and eating less meat, we’re doing our part to make the world more sustainable”
VCs, very smart: “We just raised $100 billion dollars from the sovereign wealth funds of three petrostates to build the world’s largest AI supercomputer. It uses as much power and water as Guatemala and the primary use case is for management consultants to autogenerate powerpoints for justifying mass layoffs.”
Stack Overflow: It’s perfectly OK to do something that’s technically allowed even if it makes people angry. People: *Start deleting or editing their answers to express their stance on OpenAI.* Stack Overflow: Not like that!
Výzkumy ukazují, že když vybíráme lídra, obvykle nevolíme toho, kdo je ve vedení lidí nejschopnější. Často nominujeme toho, kdo je nejhlasitější. Říká se tomu „efekt žvanila“.
Díky němu si pleteme sebedůvěru s kompetencí, suverénní jistotu s důvěryhodností a kvantitu s kvalitou. Skončíme tak v pasti: následujeme lidi, co umí ovládnout debatu, místo aby zvyšovali její úroveň.
Ať mi nikdo neříká, že tenhle ksindl není kolaborant a nebojuje za Putina.
People are currently dunking on this post that complains about Mastodon link previews DDoSing their servers - and they deserve every bit of it.
Pulling up this site in a browser with no privacy/sanity plugins installed, it made a total of 3740 requests within 4 minutes, which amounted to 267.22 MB transferred. It has ads left, right, bottom and center, and it has one of those annoying autoplaying videos, which ALSO has a video ad in front of it. The website would not scroll even close to fluently, and I'm doing this on a 24-core M2 Ultra Mac Studio with 128 GB RAM. I had to use the `debugger` command in the JS console in order to make the network panel in dev tools stop lagging.
In addition, they quote someone complaining about 114.7 MB being requested from their server over the span of 5 minutes. Not only is that less than half as much as you make a single user download if they don't actively cut into your bloatware crap, it also amounts to a whopping 3.06 Mbit/s that you're complaining about. THREE MEGABITS PER SECOND!
Your website is an insult to the internet.
koukam, ze se po bazarech vsude vyrojily tolik oblibene Digitakty, za 16k, dokonce za 14
tak jsem si rikal, ze se asi ukazala nejaka neopravitelna chyba a lidi se toho rychle zbavujou, nez to vyjde do verejne znamosti
a ona proste vysla nova verze 😅
Sčítanie (czsk) ľudu!
Či už si utečenec z Twitteru (ako ja), oddaný Mastodonec, social media experimentátor, alebo si sem iba zablúdil - daj o sebe vedieť!
Boost poteší.

Česko je pokud vím unikátní v tom, že každý občan má přístup do lesa — i když je ten les privátně vlastněný. Třeba v USA to tak není, a můžu vám říct, že jsem to tam vnímal jako dost důležitý rozdíl.
Teď se nějaká lobby snaží změnit zákon tak, aby si mohli vlastníci lesů přístup veřejnosti zakázat.
Podepsal jsem proti tomu petici zde: https://lesyprovsechny.cz/
We already have 1,000 would-be Mozarts who instead of learning music and honing their skills are doing shit jobs for shit wages. They're spending their time just surviving instead of blessing the rest of us with music we'd love.
What these would-be Mozarts need is basic income.
oktální je přirozenější a zachovává stávající délku sekundy, a tudíž nadále platí veškerá fyzika
