A new post + vid for you, for the Klimakultur blog, on a WILD new survey that shows Norwegian society overestimates Equinor's renewable energy sales by an extremely massive amount It is a shocking demonstration of fossil fuel marketing prowess -->>> www.klimakultur.no/nyheter/equi...

Argentine media says he may have crossed into Argentina to board a private jet to the US. An ally denied he had left Brazil. The investigation follows a Supreme Court order revoking his passports and banning him from leaving the country.

“Flávio has given up. He’s terrified. He is worried his father will die in jail, that he himself will be jailed this week and that he may have a long prison term ahead.”

Correct me if I'm wrong here, but wasn't Texas' moratorium only for grid-connected data centres (and even that has been over-stated because they're progressing applications anyway)? So....wouldn't Project Kilby just not be subject to this? www.semafor.com/article/10/0...

LOBBY DADDY

ha, wow this ad "I like being dominated by US lobbyists" youtu.be/PG75Lo7vUQI?...

"AI can draft an essay for you, especially if you give it a high quality prompt." Really? This is what MIT thinks high schoolers should learn? MIT's "Day of AI" dayofai.org provides materials for K-12 teachers and claims to have reached over 5,000,000 students to date. 1/2

lol woops I did a Halloween handle and lost my verified tick.....worth it imo

Top tech company leaders are meeting with religious leaders to further their own business reasons and not to engage with questions of faith, says Father Paolo Benanti who has been an AI advisor to two popes

I liked Digger but in a weird way I still agree with basically most criticisms of it? Including Adam's here which are very thoughtful and well put together:

and a GIGANTIC SUCK SHIT to Mark Zuckerberg and Meta.

The numbers for potential climate harm from direct fossil-fuelled data centres are just phenomenal. It makes no sense to help them realise their dreams here

According to @earthjustice.org, BAAJA actually gives behind-the-meter gas turbines a boost. earthjustice.org/feature/bipa...

New from me: The US has faced a higher cost than any other country from the global Hormuz oil shock, with the crisis adding $160 billion to its fuel bill — or $471 per person on average — despite being the world’s largest oil producer.

I watched the box-office flop Digger last night and loved it. I was reminded that unless you’re rich/ powerful, our future will be satire about the new “norm” of climate disasters to laugh at so we don’t cry. And Australia is great source material with all the fossil fuel projects we approve.

"I wrote up a proposal for a moratorium on AI data centers in Lochbuie. The ensuing public meeting drew more attendees than I had ever seen. They overwhelmingly supported it, and it passed easily." Mayor Jamie Jeffery believes you can pass a data center moratorium:

I am blown away by how physically ugly smartwatches universally are now. The best looking ones are like one tiny fraction less bad than the worst-looking ones. There's no inventiveness, no thoughtfulness, nothing cool or compelling. Just ugly AF www.zdnet.com/health/googl...

This takes @ipcc.bsky.social’s AR6 WG1 chart (Fig. SPM.10) & adds proven reserves from the Global Registry of Fossil Fuels ( @carbontracker.bsky.social with @globalenergymon.bsky.social data), the IPCC’s own 0.45 °C per 1,000 GtCO₂, & the 2 °C budget from Forster et al. 2026. CO₂ from burning only

How much of the world’s proven coal, oil and gas (i.e. already found, pays to extract at today’s prices) can still be burned for a 66% chance of holding 2 °C? About 30%. The other 70%, 2,040 billion tonnes of CO₂, are stranded assets. Burn it all and CO₂ alone means roughly 2.7 °C Purple = added

Roose does a very nice job signaling in the second paragraph what sort of book this will be. He decided to write it the night after partying with ketamine-snorting effective accelerationists. He isn’t e/acc himself, but he hangs with that crowd and accepts their premises as newsworthy,

A new twist in the MACH Energy coal expansion saga - the company had plans to "influence curriculum". 🧵 Reported today in Nine Newspapers www.smh.com.au/environment/...

That’s moderation the French way—the complete opposite of the usual US approach. We ban things if there’s no nudity. 🤗
