I support this proposal

Probably. I still find a lot of people here on Lemmy (and the other fuck you spez platform before) that are very very convinced we need to reroute a substantial amount of our effort into building nuclear reactors as renewables can never ever sustain everything and in general there is no storage.

But you are right in general.

People will always find a reason to smash their heads, however they call it. All hail to the Allied Atheist Alliance my fellow 🦦

2400000000 / 58000000 ~ 41. 234000 / 70000 ~ 3. If we talking about preserving birds I would still address the cat issue before the wind turbine issue.

Also there is a chance that birds killed by cats windturbines were already weak and soon to die.

Don’t take the above sentence seriously. It’s just to show that arguments that seem nice might not hold their value at second glance.

In comparison with the other issues we have, the bird Windturbine one is a non-issue. However, it gets thrown in the ring over and over again, achieving exactly what the people persuing it want: distraction. It’s the same with nuclear, it’s the same with “ but we can’t store the energy“. A lot of decoys to slow down the process while we already have everything we need to take on the problem. Please people, don’t take the bait, focus on implementing the solution.

Uhm… 2400000000 / 58000000 ~ 41. 234000 / 70000 ~ 3. If we talking about preserving birds I would still address the cat issue before the wind turbine issue.

Yeah… bird smashers… say, do you have a cat?

Hey, no need to apologize for anything 🙃 yeah, that phrase is a quote ire st least kind of a meme.

Also don’t forget about survivorship bias. We don’t know how many percent of their buildings are still standing. Probably only the really really good build ones. Also never forget, any idiot can build a bridge that stands. It takes an engineer to built one that barely stands. And that is often what we are doing today. Making our stuff “good enough” as otherwise it wouldn’t be economic feasible in the short or midterm. I am still curious how good it would be if we would instead aim for the long-term though…

Wasn’t the tire thing to stop the contour matching so that the drones can’t see/find their target?

Exactly this. There was some good coverage in the German podcast Logbuch Netzpolitik. Ashton is also involved in companies selling software to “solve” the CSAM issue with methods the scientific community says will not solve it and most likely will make everything worse, not only in the topic but also others like privacy overall.

Almost every piece of equipment that Russia is using in its war runs on oil. I can understand it, to hit that branch if military support as well. It’s just that oil is also used for civilian stuff. On the other hand, russia attacked the electric infrastructure of Ukraine and that was heavily critiziced because of the effects on the citizens. So I get your point.

However, as soon as Russia leaves Ukraine, their oil depots will stop to blow up. Ukraine does not have that kind of choice

I can’t even believe how this feels. Every moment could be our last if the shell just hits 3m somewhere else. For fucks sake… Shit war shit. An the fucker(s) wo started it don’t get that feeling…

Oh yes yes. Of course the time would be enough to apply policies to tackle the problems created by this. However my experience of humanity so far is that those time will not be properly used to tackle the problems 🙃 therefore it will still feel like a cold turkey (IMHO)

Well yes. But it is the same as like quitting smoking and drinking as a heavy abuser from one to the other day. Your next few weeks will be not so cool. On this case it will be not so cool decades

Some missiles have two charges. One explodes on the outside of the tank to get rid of the active armor and the second penetrates the hull then. When using a layer of wood, probably the first one detonates at the wood, second on reactive armor and hull stays intact.
