I have said for years that arithmetically pushing content into a persons time line is effectively broadcasting and should be regulated as such. Regardless of where the content came from Seem like there is finally some legislation that recognizes that. At least in California […]

Canada Post is a service, not a consumer product. The idea that it operates at a "loss" is stupid. It's like saying schools operate at a loss; hospitals operate at a loss; roads operate at a loss; sewers operates at a loss. We pay for public services collectively, because they are simply needed […]

@sleepy62 they keep coming back. I am not against reactors however the economics don’t stack up, safety concerns are still real and they are too hard to construct to be a meaningful solution to global heating. Too expensive and too slow. We should be doing renewables till fusion arrives! Which […]

@heidilifeldman Mel Brooks said you can make a joke about anything. As long as it's funny. I stand with Mel Brooks.

I’m watching Kimmel’s monologue. It is important. Yes, it is commercial television, mainstream, and in some ways tepid. Yet at the same time it is important. Kimmel is speaking, from the center, about civil rights and liberty in a constitutional democracy. We all face the threat of Republican […]

Meanwhile in Canada, our health agency put up this statement about acetaminophen: https://recalls-rappels.canada.ca/en/alert-recall/acetaminophen-recommended-treatment-fever-and-pain-during-pregnancy #canada #tylenol

Charlie Kirk never cared about debates.

Gaddafi was so insane even Reagan dubbed him the Mad Man of the Middle East. His UN speech in 2009 was considered one of the most lunatic addresses in history. Trump just oudid him. Mad Man of the United States. That should be the headline.

Good article on the new nuclear cheerleaders presenting it as the saviour of humanity (again). "it would take the construction of 33 new nuclear plants per year for the next 27 years to move (nuclear) from two to four per cent of total energy supply (in the US)." […]

Many studies have shown that there is no relationship between MMR vaccine and the development of autism. Here are two of the best. This one followed every single child born in Denmark from 1991 through 1998 (n=537,303). There was no association.

@cbcnews how did you report an entire story about Canada recognising the state of Palestine without speaking once to a representative of the state of Palestine, or even to a reporter in Ramallah? You did manage to have an extensive discussion with a reporter in (Western) Jerusalem about how the […]

Clipped from a comment on NYT: For those of you who have cancelled Disney/Hulu please redirect your funds to PBS Passport. Brining Kimmel back is being done by Disney due to several billions in lost revenue/market share. Well done! #kimmel #disney

Ok so watched the season premier for #tulsaking last night. The scene were Bodie shows up with a bright green EV is quite funny but I correctly predicted that they would use it to bash EVs and spread misinformation. Sure enough when they had to recharge it became a big drama and everyone was […]

ICE cars waste ~80% of fuel as heat, noise & friction. 🔥 EVs flip the script: electricity flows straight to the drivetrain, no messy conversions. With regen, 87–91% of energy drives the wheels. ⚡ That’s 3–5× more efficient, cheaper to run & cleaner for the planet. 🚗🔋🌍 #EV #Efficiency #Future #LFP

"For someone who has been so often held up in recent days as a “moderate, mainstream conservative,” Mr. Kirk is strangely popular with neo-Nazis, white nationalists, Christian theocrats and other elements of the far right. I can’t imagine they’d be so keen on Mitt Romney, even in death. " Mr […]

I can't imagine how terrified these young engineers must have been. Having spent most of my engineering career overseas we are used to the arcane visa gauntlet that most countries make us run. That said we were generally treated with respect and welcomed as "foreign talent". Evidently the US […]

Just finished "The Dark Forest" by Liu Cixin. Its the sequel to "Three Body Problem", this is great scifi! In fact I would say I enjoyed it much more than Three Body Problem. #books #scifi

As a consoling thought, when you look outside of the so-called "Western World", it becomes clear that #fossifuels have already lost. The surge in #fascism around here is in part a last-ditch effort to prop up a failing business model. This might "work" for a while, but it can only delay the end […]
