Things I notice sometimes, people are a little misguided about the environmental impact of AI. A ChatGPT query uses about 10x the energy of a Google search. DeepSeek uses about the same amount as a Google search. Driving a car 1km uses 17,000x the energy of Googling.

This thread is literally what "mutual aid" refers to. It's not charity, distroism, or passing around the same $20, what Kropotkin was describing was a hardnosed evolutionary & game theoretic dynamic by which cooperation wins out, in part by aggressively organizing sanctions of bastards.
