I'm not from the UK but I thought the house of lords is largely a vestigial legislative body and has no serious power. Am I wrong there?

Just because they are not literally identical does mean they are unrelated. The author points this out and it sounds horrific. > The four men interviewed by Amnesty International, as well as Florida-based organizations, told the organiza

The problem here isn’t as simple as torrenting. It’s the narrowing of what culture is created and promoted and what isn’t. Paramount is overtly a right wing organization now under the Ellison’s. Part of their bid to WB is “it’d be a shame i

it is naive to think that twitter/x is a neutral platform when the owner of the site created a bot that called itself "mecha hitler". do you really think he isn't affecting everyone's feed as well?

People used to literally live with the livestock attached to home or even under the same roof. This was probably the case for most of agricultural history. Factory farming is bad, over use of antibiotics in live stock is bad. But OP's

A corporation, founded by a Stanford grad who’s been giving talks on the Antichrist, who’s business is to spy on everyone and create a panopticon, is offering a four week indoctrination scheme to susceptible teens. Idk how our society gets

This is a problem that literally had minimal societal consequences just a few years ago before the 2018 supreme court ruling[1]. I don't see why we shouldn't just try to move the laws back to how things were in 2017. Source 1: ht

This claim that if they stopped training new models wouldn’t the old ones become stale as things are updated? Not sure how quickly that would occur but it does seem likely as the world moves fast

You are correct. I meant the Miocene where towards the end CO2 was ~500 ppm which we are over with CO2e.

The Amazon rainforest is not an ecosystem that burns. It’s not adapted to it and it effectively destroys it permanently on a human time scale. It requires wet conditions that are fostered by trees and heavy organic forest litter like leaves

The misconception here is that the carbon in the Bakken is locked up geologically and essentially removed the biosphere’s carbon cycle but the Amazon is not. Even if the entire Amazon rainforest were to burn it wouldn’t change that. The pro

It’s not that more CO2 is bad it’s that the rate of change is faster than any time in the geologic history of earth. And every mass extinction including the dinosaurs involved abrupt changes to CO2 levels. Every living thing is made out of

Something to keep in mind in the comments when talking about climate change and CO2 levels is that it’s not the level so much as the rate. We’re on the path to doubling (or have doubled if you look at CO2 equivalents) global CO2 levels fast

We are already at Eocene levels of CO2 it’s just that our climate hasn’t caught up yet

My understanding is very challenging for a few reasons. 1. A forest is not just a bunch of trees. It’s most healthy and robust with mature trees and right animal life that supports and propagates them 2. The short term economic incentives t

by TSiege 1y ago
Not necessarily, (or even according to climate models I’ve seen). The feedback the OP mentioned is because trees near the coasts catch rain that they then respirate back up and create an atmospheric river that moves inland and falls as rain

It’s certainly possible, but it might be that it’s very difficult for some organisms to evolve certain protections because adapting can reduce fitness in other ways. So maybe there is a barrier that would help it from UVC but perhaps that m

Is the argument that the Larry Ellison doesn't have huge sway over the companies he's owns outright or in part, or that saying him and Elon Musk have outsized control over America's information environment is conspiratorial?

This site (~1475 BCE) is older than the Olmecs (1200-400BCE) and is associated with another city, Caral, which is even older than them (3000-1800BCE) and both are much farther south than Mexico is compared to the Bering Land Bridge. Caral a
