I suppose that due to his position Linus is forced to have some kind of opinions about it, but I am so sick of all the “AI” talk that I can’t even be bothered to click the link and find out what it is.
I’d appreciate it if everyone could just stop burning fossil fuels, please. Thank you for your cooperation.

So now we’re burning oil and emitting CO₂ in order to grow crops that get converted to ethanol which produces CO₂ in the process which is captured, compressed and transported at the cost of some more CO₂ and then used for fracking to produce more oil which is burned to produce more CO₂. And still those environmental groups aren’t satisfied.
This one has security fixes which you will probably want to install somewhat promptly.
It’s hard to believe it’s as low as that but then I should’ve hesitated more to believe the much higher estimate from the first website I saw making a guess. If he’s done better in life than I had thought, my apologies for repeating such slander.

Mentioning here that the dev’s objection to F-Droid was that they marked the Holy Bible as “NSFW” would’ve saved us all a click.


Statcounter, huh. I’m guessing “unknown” means Windows 11 but they haven’t updated their software to recognise it yet.
the vast majority weren’t going to buy a simple ‘leave it in the ground’
Well then, the vast majority are in the wrong. It happens sometimes. This is one of those times. It does not mean you should join them.


I was into fuel efficiency for a while, yes I too was fooled until about 2007, so I can tell you that gasoline-powered cars are more efficient at 90km/h than they are at 100 but typically they’re most efficient somewhere below 60km/h. Probably lower, depends on gear ratios and such. That they went with 55 instead of 40 is just because nobody would have accepted the latter. In fact they largely didn’t accept 55 either in the long run, as we know. But such technical details don’t matter a whole lot at this point because fossil fuels should not be burned at all by anyone.


Fuel efficiency standards: Demonstrating the Jevons paradox and distracting everyone from the urgent necessity to stop burning fossil fuels, since 1975.


Why vote NDP? Because even if we concede that all your criticisms of the party are exactly right and unchanged under its new leadership, that still makes them the best of the main parties available to vote for.


The one I like to watch is Mozilla’s own count of monthly active users. Once every year or two I’ll remember to check it. This time, it’s at least temporarily broken out of its years-long downtrend! The total number of Firefox users (not its market share) is up by 2% over 52 weeks as of the latest data point.


The hacker news discussion is surprisingly not bad. Very few Google stans coming in to shill for their corporate masters, and they’re getting soundly ignored and downvoted.


There are very few reasons left to buy any consoles, and they decided to make it one less.


Oh, sorry, did not mean to put that in c/technology.
In the old days we had large numbers of people believing that being online meant using AOL, Compuserve, or whatever walled-garden type of “portal” they were lured into using. But we could mostly rely on tech-aware people like computer programmers to know better. Not any more. Today it’s a more diverse group that knows better, but a less cohesive and politically influential one, and it makes up a much smaller fraction of net users.
ah good — I just assumed it was their latest name for the address bar.
Browsing history results now appear with images.
Images? What? Why? I hope that’s easy to turn off.


How did kitty-corner and point form make the list? Surely everyone who speaks 500 words of english knows those words.
There ought to be some kind of 2016 css subset that everyone sticks to and then we can reconsider maybe updating it to include any newer stuff that’s absolutely essential once every ten years.
