Musk a traînée en justice le 1er août 2023 la ONG Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) pour avoir publié un rapport montrant que la plateforme X (anciennement Twitter) n’a pris aucune mesure de sanction contre 99% des utilisateurs signalés pour avoir publié des contenus néonazis, homophobes, racistes, antisémites. https://www.liberation.fr/international/amerique/twitter-rebaptise-x-poursuit-en-justice-une-organisation-de-lutte-contre-les-contenus-haineux-20230802_B6YA3UFFOFA3XBLOPNATKSX2KE/
Apparently, the #DailyMail has just launched "Woke Watch", where red faced pillocks send in angry e-mails, complaining about transgender asylum seekers giving their house prices pronoun cancer, or something.
Anyway, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES should one e-mail wokewatch@dailymail.co.uk to #Troll, #Shitpost or just plain take the piss. No, that would be WRONG. Oh, for shame!
Und wie immer wird die erhöhte Frequenz und Heftigkeit solcher Ereignisse aufgrund der zunehmenden #Klimaerwärmung mit keinem Wort erwähnt.

Hackers from TU Berlin managed to jailbreak #Tesla cars, unlocking software-locked features worth up to $15,000 🪓🪓🪓
They used a known (unpatchable) voltage fault injection attack against the AMD Secure Processor to glitch the boot process, got root, and retrieved the car's RSA private key 👌

Coincidentally, he also invented the popular childrens' game Musical Chairs. He died when presenting it, because initially the rule was that when the music (and the dancing) stops, the last one standing would be stabbed.
When you think of Gen Z, labor unions may not be the first thing that comes to mind. Still, this young generation is responsible for the resurgence of unions in the 21st century. Take a deep dive into why at #TheBigPicture: https://thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/usa-labor-unions-worker-rights

And there's the bell ringing in the back of my head. 😉 I think Stefan Rahmstorf mentioned them and also was in a dispute with Shellenberger.

“They had this idea of molding environmentalism to attract conservatives and what actually happened was they turned into conservatives themselves—writing for Forbes, Quillete, National Review, and the Wall Street Journal,” said Sam Bliss. Bliss describes it as a tragic tale, where Nordhaus and Shellenberger turn into exactly who they didn't want to be: conservative lobbyists for techno-fixes who engage in endless battles with environmentalists.

Over the years, Breakthrough also began defending oil companies and cozying up to climate contrarians. Denying that they traffic in climate denial, while constantly ending up in the same room with contrarians and climate denialists, is a constant dilemma for the Breakthrough crowd, as are spine twisting arguments to soften human impacts on the planet and to hype technology solutions.

So I had this absurd idea to go to our summer house in rural sweden by train and busses in October.
Looks like I can book the train directly via the swedish railway as there are nighttrains from hamburg.
The last few miles are the most critical but there's an on demand bus service going I didn't know about that runs the whole day.
This might be absolutely feasible if very exhausting, but that's true for the car ride as well.
Price wise it might be a tad cheaper than by car if going solo.

Indeed it is hard to look at this from today's POV without having today's POV (which includes the eugenics excesses of the Nazis). But I still think, eugenics, even in the 19th century, were objectively bad. Elitist and inhumane. And there are many contemporaries who called them out for that.

Graham Graham Readfearn debunks (among other climate science denial stuff) the latest nonsense from Lomborg on supposedly declining wildfire. Amazing how these people just keep going with their deception. I guess there’s a market of people wanting it. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/commentisfree/2023/aug/03/the-world-likely-just-had-its-hottest-month-on-record-what-a-time-to-be-a-climate-science-denier?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other
Was der britische Klimaforscherkollege Ed Hawkins schreibt gilt auch für Deutschland. Dabei sind die Briten schon weiter als wir: fast ganz aus Kohle raus, CO2-Emissionen schneller gesenkt und pro Kopf deutlich niedriger. https://theconversation.com/science-shows-the-severe-climate-consequences-of-new-fossil-fuel-extraction-210846
How it works: „A firm founded by Rishi Sunak’s father-in-law signed a billion-dollar deal with BP two months before the prime minister opened hundreds of new licences for oil and gas extraction in the North Sea.“ https://www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/sunaks-family-firm-signed-a-billion-dollar-deal-with-bp-before-pm-opened-new-north-sea-licences-353690/
@slrellison I very much doubt the "unwittingly" quality. The article very clearly states that all three used statistics to justify their eugenics beliefs. I don't think you or anyone else could just "fall for eugenics". @bartlettje
@bartlettje I wasn't suggesting a relation between statistics and eugenics. I hope it did not come across as such. I think, however, the historical persons should be discussed at least briefly in sciences. Because there is no such thing as "pure science". There are always human motives, good or bad. @slrellison
