Technology@lemmy.world•US coal ‘biggest contributor by far’ to rise in global emissionsEnglish
2·14 hours agoProper accounting of emissions is to attribute it all to consumer. They won’t make it, and ship it all the way here, if you don’t buy it. The graphs don’t do it this way.

politics @lemmy.world•Trump slams the Supreme Court for rejecting his push to restrict mail ballots
3·15 hours agoSad that there were 2 dissenters in ruling. Rejecting on timing alone was necessary. So, the whole process had no seriousness, and instead is just fabricating anger, and setting up 6 more years of rants against election results and deep state.

News@lemmy.world•Republican Rep. Massie moves to impeach Defense Secretary Hegseth over Iran war
11·16 hours agoImpeaching cabinet members one at a time is a reasonable strategy. It is certainly a good topic to get GOP election campaigns to talk about defending.

politics @lemmy.world•‘Not too much they can do about it’: Frustrated White House faces spiking oil prices
2·17 hours agoI don’t dismiss this fear on the basis of Trump’s sanity, but I dismiss it on not achieving any victory and causing massive international blowback among allies and adversaries. A nuclear attack does not stop Iran retaliations (oil reaching $150-300 with world looking to China for answers). 100 nuclear attacks doesn’t stop retaliation and causes permanent regional/global pollution. The forces that stopped him from ending civilization in April were not mid terms, and are the same after mid terms. Impotence and a global rallying cry against naziism. Losing this war and eventual liberation of Ukraine regions, was preplanned in managing rivals red lines.
It’s actually very easy for Trump to declare victory and leave. “Any Dumocrat traitor that says we should have a forever war instead of this great victory, is just yet another Biden forever war stooge, that wants to destroy America with trans in women sport. Only a third term can stop their madness”

politics @lemmy.world•‘Not too much they can do about it’: Frustrated White House faces spiking oil prices
5·19 hours agoBest they can do is brag that they destroyed the rest of the world far worse, by saying oil price and bond collapse is worse elsewhere. “Iran is certain to collapse and make an unconditional surrender any day now, after begging for a deal for the last 5 months” is their only policy.
I predict the US will declare victory and leave after the mid terms instead of holding out until 2028 innauguration. They can’t do it now, because even if imminent collapse is a danger, it would be worse for the mid terms if they either followed through on MoU, or just declared victory and left today, with election focused on debate over just how victorious the retreat is, and how much Iran/China gains influence over their former client states in the Gulf.
Iraq troop withdrawals in 2 weeks can be another midterm disaster, as Iran with Iraq deal, could invade Kuwait just in time to expose Trump/US impotence for the mid terms.

Excellent Reads@sh.itjust.works•Scored on the CIA's Instability Model, the United States Is in the Highest-Risk Category for Civil War, Coup, or Collapse
4·17 hours agoNationalist hatred of classes is a cancer when high unproductive spending is devoted to reducing workforce/population through detention and deportation. It’s an economic threat to middle classes from housing devaluation, resulting bank bailouts, and less people to buy their food/services that drives their employment.
Nationalist international rivalry, combined with swing state politics, is a divisive cancer in rewarding selective domestic industry workers with tariff protections that increase costs to rest of population, and then not even increase blue collar work force due to tariff retaliations, and investments in automation. Low information blue collar workers have leopards eat their faces as they abandon the lesser fascist party supporting deceptive policies that harm them.
Nationalist rivaly-based militarism is a cancer for depriving shared prosperty/welfare as substitute for budget/debt.
Nationalist oligarchism is identical under Reagan and German NDSAP. Give our oligarchy everything, or rivals win, and trust that it will trickle down. More cancer.
Nationalist AI rivalry is a combination of all of the above cancers. It reduces freedom of access to AI models for nationalist oligarchy. It oppresses employment opportunity. It enhances the militarist/fascist capability of suppressing discontent over oppression, and imposes suffering from all retaliation to its militarism.
US establishment is powerful enough to think it can get ahead of any rebelions, and the longer fascism goes/amplifies, the more confident they will be. UBI now: https://naturalfinance.blogspot.com/2026/09/a-global-prosperity-manifesto.html

Fuck AI@lemmy.world•Move over, unpaid internships -- the Groksuckers are pushing for reverse salaries now
2·21 hours agoBrilliant! When can I sign up?
One of the paths that AI kills us all, is rooted in this mindset. leading to more concentration of wealth and power, increased corruption/suspension of democracy, and a lack of demand of slaves, and lack of supply of slaves capable of paying oligarchy for the privilege of learning how to serve them better.
The lack of employment driven income, is certain to cause a housing value crisis, which is a fractional banking crisis. The oligarchy/empire is forced into the binary choice of UBI redistribution of their power vs. bailing out the bankster oligarchy and using some of those autonomous weapons made with AI (government blacklisted the best model over not having the privilege to develop these, but fortunately competitors stepped in) to exterminate at least the slaves unable to buy oligarchist protection.
Having the binary choice implies a financial survival/capacity of nation to do anything. While financial incapacity is better than genocide (spoiler that is the binary choice that would be taken), there is still massive hardships to everyone used to the economic convenience of the system, and resulting mad max chaos and starvation brings issues too.
UBI must be chosen today. Not after it gets worse. https://naturalfinance.blogspot.com/2026/09/a-global-prosperity-manifesto.html

Technology@lemmy.world•Y Combinator's Garry Tan wants US open-weight AI labs to 'distill' frontier models, tooEnglish
3·23 hours agoHe makes good arguments, could also add that it would be a source of token sales for the big labs.
but with some misplaced assumptions.
- Open source shouldn’t discriminate on contributors or nationalist biggotry of permitted users.
- Open weight models can/are being served from US datacenters.
Cursor was bought by mechahitler for $60B because it made an LLM, by taking Kimi 2.5 source, and retraining with free user data that was mostly distilled from frontier closed but other global models as well.

World News@lemmy.world•Trump calls on Ukraine to halt strikes on Russian diesel, saying attacks are causing a shortageEnglish
12·2 days agoAlways depressing to see so many supporting your demonic fiction. That debate aside, point is Trump doesn’t need to ask Zelensky for anything. He just needs to stop US military/GPS support operations. So this is yet another distraction from the 100 other distractions focusing away from failures. But also, that Trump supports his oligarch donors profits from high oil/diesel prices.
None of the AI bond villain statements this weekend have any policy recommendations that would slow US military/surveillance/gestapo/bond villain use of LLM/AI tools. They are only promoting/perfecting the guardrails on models that are released to the public.
Who wins AI, Wins
Can only be understood as a race for skynet. Any production/productivity benefit from AI made by Americans, can be enhanced by access to more models on price/speed/performance curve. The data centers can all run open models too, and somehow this only growing part of US economy can get more ROI with access to best/cheapest models.
Therefore, winning is not based on helping people the most. It is an open declaration, and based on killing/oppressing people the most. The previous administration viewed global warming as an opportunity to beat China in profifting from its technology sector to pursue green energy. There is massive employment opportunities from just deploying whatever is the cheapest/abundant available green energy in far higher volume because the savings/payback is that much more attractive.
The only reason 30+ year solar energy, and 20+ year EV lifetimes are “falsely demonized as foreign dependence”, when 1 year replacement shoes/apparel are not, is the oligarchy controlling your propaganda to protect their profits. All industry is moving towards more automation and less employment.
Nationalist rivalry policy thought must be exterminated. Only way to avoid skynet. Policy that focuses on making the nation the best possible place to live is what creates national prosperity, and extreme employment for anyone wanting a share of that prosperity growth. https://naturalfinance.blogspot.com/2026/09/a-global-prosperity-manifesto.html
California has a history of importing fuel from Asia. Difficulty related to crossing the rockies on trucking. Though I’m surprised there isn’t a rail option. Prices are much higher in Asia.
Is it just the big signs that can’t understand $10+ print (fixed with some cardboard), or are the pump programming incapable of calculating higher price? Y2k 2.0
