I'm interested in reading about your low-carbon lifestyle that is so efficient you got to the point of giving up machine inference.

I live in a van full time. I have a 200w solar panel and a 1500w output solar battery that powers everything I use, mostly for cooking, sometimes heat. I also poop in the woods a lot. :) I do not use the internet much really. Driving is my biggest carbon footprint but I really do not put much more mileage than the average suburban person. Anyway, I try my best. I am permanently disabled so that makes a lot of it easier. Being poor dramatically lowers ones carbon footprint.

Depends where you are. People in some countries have lot of catching up: https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/co-emissions-per-capita

Maybe they are in USA - every little think counts there.

I am in the US, and thanks for that link. I am of the opinion that the Climate Crisis should be the number one focus for everyone right now.

So, to keep this on point, Apple making a faster chip is not on my climate change agenda and anything but negative.

No, in the USA it is the opposite. The little things do not and cannot add up to anything. The only things that make a difference are motor fuels and hamburgers.

oh grow up. people can make cuts wherever the choose and no cut is a bad cut. These decisions are so complicated, personal and nuanced it is ridiculous to try to police someone else's best efforts.
