We will hit 2.0 C for a year in the early 2030s and 3.0C by 2050. This is already baked in and we are still accelerating CO2 production. The only way out of this is significant carbon capture and we have no technology to do this effectively at all.

Gaming@lemmy.world•Faced with a lawsuit, Sony lawyers argue "reasonable" PlayStation players are aware that they don't own the games they've paid forEnglish
16·7 days agoThe real battle here is about DRM and the ability of these games companies to stop people being able to play games, resell and do ownership things with their games. This is going to require government intervention that much has been clear for a long while.

United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Charging graffiti activism as terrorism. Well if I wasn't radicalised enough already...English
2·9 days agoCauses a lot of brain damage unfortunately to impulse control and it will be making people angrier and less reasoned. Its not a good idea to have this virus constantly circulating and doing further and further damage to peoples cognitive function without any attempt to mitigate it at all.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Router recommendation for newbieEnglish
31·15 days agoThe Asus BT8 is a wifi 7 router supported by openWRT and there is quite a few of us running it. I think generally OpenWRT is a good way to go and the Table of Hardware on the OpenWRT site will give you a dizzying array of options for wifi 6 and 7 devices that are supported and you get to pick your spec and price from those available.
You might need the modem device if you are using cable, otherwise its FTTH or DSL then you wont.
If you search for OpenWRT tutorials on youtube you will find a McFly or something like that name and he has a bunch of tutorials on how to set up OpenWRT and a range of more advanced networking topics and how to use OpenWRT to utilise them.

Work Reform@lemmy.world•All we did was make the already rich even richer
4·15 days agoThe USA’s (ex) allies own quite a bit of that debt as bonds, at some point they are going to start cutting their losses and selling those bonds for pennies on the dollar. The debt might go down but the USD will go with it. They don’t need to fight militarily the whole world shares in being able to destroy the USA economically and if some choose to do so things will get really bad.

United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Emergency Alert About WildfiresEnglish
2·27 days agoFelt like an underlining of their new policy to
banadjust the guidelines to voluntarily stop the use of disposable BBQs. They are under a lot of pressure to actually do some mitigation since water is running low and crops are failed but apparently this was the actual action, banning BBQs and alerting everyone to that new guideline!!!

Reddit@lemmy.world•Time to get rid of my Reddit account - Seeking advice
1·1 month agoShreddit still exists as a docker image and can go about saving a scrambled version before it deletes, but in practice it doesn’t seem to work. They disappear from your account and you can no longer see them but if you search for your username on Google etc you can still get to the comments, so they are still available for search engines and AI. There is no way to remove the comments on Reddit, you can just choose to hide them from yourself!

science@lemmy.world•Scientists detect a sharp acceleration in global warmingEnglish
18·1 month agoThey have been using the minimum estimate for CO2 impact on heating since the 1970s. The level of pollution in the air has been hiding the true impact and as the various causes of pollution are removed the earth energy balance is changing such that it turns out that the highest end of the CO2 impact is actually correct, which doubles the heating effect. There has been about a third of climate scientists who have been warning about this but they have consistently been called the extremists or the doomers and they have been right all along. They were always right, the evidence was based on actual experiments of the impact of CO2 and not by measuring the planet.

Its a group inside the labour party that are strong Zionists and their members are now in charge of the Labour party and the government with strong ties and bias towards Israel. They have been using increasingly authoritarian measures to put down anyone criticising Israel and its actions of genocide in Palestine and expansion into the West Bank.

Games@lemmy.world•Former Valve writer says PlayStation killing physical discs is no conspiracy: "You, the consumer, have made your choice, and the choice is for digital"English
1·2 months agoI bought physical disks until they were basically phased out. A large chunk of them just registered on Steam and downloaded the latest patch before they would run anyway. I have been against Steam and its DRM for a while, but everyone else chose to have no rights to their games, no ability to sell or loan them or give them to others. You will own nothing and love it.

science@lemmy.world•Children born during first COVID-19 lockdown in UK found it more difficult to focus, follow instructions and regulate their emotions at 4 years of ageEnglish
8·2 months agoThere is also the other explanation, which has a lot of mechanistic science already, that is the impact of the virus itself on the children before and after birth. Its been known since 2020 that the virus causes neurological damage and the evidence keeps coming in on just how bad news it is. We see it all over society at the moment, blamed on other things but the scientific papers showing the structural changes in the brain are many times replicated now.












This started long before Trump, fascism has been growing in popular support ever since the 2008 financial crisis. Its better funded now than it was but its been a long term project for the far right and they have found their trigger issues they need to lie about to convince the populace to vote them in. There will be no deprogramming fascism, it proved impossible after World War 2 and it will prove impossible now as well.
