BasedAnon··on ‘Something weird is going on’: Antarctic sea ice stays at historic lows
We don't have the ability to go down alot without killing alot of people, and if they come up it will not be possible to limit it because game theory

What does this have to do with my point, I clearly said they would industrialize

>That's propaganda, and now you're getting somewhere. We already get 63% of our protein from plants. If we were to extend that to 100%, we could store our entire 1.5C carbon budget through afforesting and rewilding pastures, which would also help restore biodiversity.

Protein is not created equally. It is not possible to maintain a healthy diet using sustainable low-energy sources of plant protein in place of meat. Meat is not an optional part of our diet. There have been plenty of studies detailing the dietary impact of vegan diets.

So that people in poorer countries can use more of them in our place to industrialize and then join everyone else in the gangrape of our environment!

>Climate change is caused by pollution and overconsumption.

Which has already happened and is irreversible as far as we know

>We're perfectly capable to change that ... we just don't want to.

No, change on the scale that would be needed to mitigate (there is no reversing, only mitigation) would require mass casualties, because it would require deindustrialization.

>But we don't know how it will play out

Yes, but we know what may improve our chances.

BasedAnon··on Sam Altman’s Worldcoin Token to Launch Monday
Billionaires are not immune to the reduction in attention span that their own products cause. We are living in a feedback loop.

BasedAnon··on ‘World of Warcraft’ players trick AI-scraping website into publishing nonsense
I mean that in between them being solid machines, the amount of content that still gets put out around it, the custom hardware people are designing for it and homebrew software the scene is still very much alive.
BasedAnon··on ‘World of Warcraft’ players trick AI-scraping website into publishing nonsense
There's a certain point where I just stop caring about further improvements honestly. My belly is full and I am satisfied.

BasedAnon··on Dusk OS: 32-bit Forth OS. Useful during first stage of civilizational collapse
saying society will collapse by 2030 is more reasonable than saying people will run a niche operating system after it does. Societal collapse looks different to different people but I'd be surprised if the western world hasn't radically declined by 2050.
BasedAnon··on Dusk OS: 32-bit Forth OS. Useful during first stage of civilizational collapse
even if those machines are all you come across, they already have operating systems available for them, with corresponding software that's already been ported. I have a PS2 with a BlackRhino Linux LiveDVD mostly because it's interesting, but I don't anticipate ever having to use it for anything important.
BasedAnon··on Dusk OS: 32-bit Forth OS. Useful during first stage of civilizational collapse
i don't see the point of this, seeing current operating systems will still exist and there will be more of a desire to get those running and supply the hardware for them, than this niche OS.
