It's amazing people will claim "Canada and the USA have the same culture" and then on something as fundamental as "do you trust your fellow citizens to be good" we are further apart than any other two countries
it is worth caveating this with *primary energy
of which ~70-80% depending on the estimate is waste heat to environment
like, this is bad, it's a problem, but. we don't need to perpetuate the primary energy fallacy in discussing it.
as i said last threshold lol:
The new hobby part was key with everything I've dealt with even close to this.
None of them lasted, but they filled time and taught me things.
pronounced with a long i, like two ee's.
sharon, you're Canadian, you should be yelling at the CCPA and Broadbent lol
OSINT (Bellingcat etc.) analysis of reality on the ground: vital public service, informative
OSINT posting and (para)social media writ large: the exact opposite of a public service in all its forms
E.g. if you ever want to see a tree that is literally Older Than Rome in the Rocky Mountain foothills: bcparks.ca/ancient-fore...
Yeah, I have friends who do some work up there. They share photos when they can and they all have stories.
I like hiking but I am not an Expedition Person lol. But there's plenty that's more accessible if you leave the border belt most people live in.

relative values of "northern", but:

Odds of “remaining on X is a radicalization vector” being a contributing factor here?
*twitter, Jesus Christ autocorrect needs to stop changing words after people hit send
I’m not talking revenue, I’m talking construction investments.
E.g. $30 billion of Musk’s rather buyout was Gulf partners; how much of xAI do they own? How much leverage on that infrastructure plan?
And who else?
My big question right now is “How much does the data centre and AI hype depend on gulf money that may get pulled reprioritise regional interests?”
Gacha has very much taken over the world and no one has really noticed yet
Have any of the major companies involved *not* taken a bunch of Gulf investments?
So what you’re saying is you haven’t hit the age yet. The power of youth
How far into the 10 years are you Dan?
The alt text on these is an art form
words fail
That was my bad; forgot the watermark as we got off topic to broader news coverage, for obvious reasons given general coverage
Cat. The noise I just made at that thought. ahahahaha.
So there is a story about the "top 10 cities at risk during nuclear war" circulating in various tabloids/etc. with my name attached to it, and I will say that a) I never have (nor would) make such a list at all, and b) I never said any of the quotes attributed to me in the article.
I am aware, yes. Do bear in mind I study transitions lol bsky.app/profile/jord...
I’m well aware the odds are low, but playing them is still very much unnecessary to get 99.99999% of the benefits
I have seen enough people lose homes to house fires to generally advise people not bet on the margins lol
