Glad to see at least some media in Europe highlighting this.
You heard me. They're getting fooled into helping the oil industry and all enemies of nature. They're making the randoms that form the majority hate climate activists, and I think it's deliberate.
How much positive have you heard from people outside of activism about their actions? How much criticism have you heard from withing activist circles?
How much positive have you heard from politicians about the huge climate report that scientists worked on for almost 10 years, delivered March last year ?
In these difficult times this is awful and depressing news :(
The 20-year old suspect involved in yesterday’s shooting at Donald Trump’s rally was reportedly bullied relentlessly, the local Pennsylvania outlet KDKA reports.
Saw this article in local newspapers today with one notable exception. Found it in another article linked in the above apnews article.
The most ambitious attempt so far came in January, when doctors at the University of Maryland Medical Center transplanted a pig heart into a dying 57-year-old. David Bennett survived for two months, evidence that xenotransplantation was at least possible. But initial testing missed that the organ harbored an animal virus. What caused Bennett’s new heart to fail and whether that virus played any role still isn’t known, the Maryland researchers recently reported in the New England Journal of Medicine.
In some open source projects there is a lot of leeching and little contributions.
In 2020 the sole developer of Invidious stepped away from development because of burn out. https://omar.yt/posts/stepping-away-from-open-source
Also in 2020 developer Raymond Hill archived the uMatrix browser add-on https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24532973
I will never hand over development to whoever, I had my lesson in the past -- I wouldn't like that someone would turn the project into something I never intended it to become (monetization, feature bloat, etc.). At most I would archive the project and whoever is free to fork under a new name. For now I resisted doing this, so people will have to be patient for new stable release.
What would actually help is that people help to completely investigate existing issues instead of keep asking me to add yet more features. Turns out people willing to step in the code to investigate and pinpoint exactly where is an issue (or that there is no issue) is incredibly rare.
Can you insert Lp0 on fire as well ? :) https://en-academic.com/dic.nsf/enwiki/7306628
lp0 on fire (aka Printer on Fire) is a semi-obsolete error message still generated on some Unix/Linux operating systems in response to certain types of printer errors. lp0 is the Unix device handle for the first line printer, but the error can be displayed for any printer attached to a Unix/Linux system.
Great story Ray. Thumbs up.
Just a few things come to mind :
- Lobbyists stopping sugar taxes.
- Big Pharma and health industry making tons of money.
- European Union being very tolerant about pesticides.
- Supermarkets putting candy close the counters where parents with kids are in queue.
- Lots of people spending most of their time on mobile phones only exercising the muscles of their eyes.
I am happy that an organisation like Foodwatch exists : https://www.foodwatch.org/en/foodwatch-international
