will the wiki be faster now?

Net neutrality is back as FCC votes to regulate internet providers

I like it!

didn't net neutrality almost kill the internet last time through tragic level of server costs that were unsustainable and caused a massive sweeping influx of pornographic ads and invasive virii popups?

*thinking*

hardware is cheaper now?

it's not like these costs are slowing down any of the massive data centers these big tech companies utilize while at the same time shouting in our faces about the need for us all to "go green"

these places draw mega-watts of power and require huge carbon footprints in manufacturing all the gear that they use and constantly replace/upgrade

real talk, the grid can barely handle air conditioning forget about millions of EVs. The Corporatocracy just wants more resources for themselves and less rights/freedoms for the rest of us serfs.

Then there is the energy/mineral requirement for AI, lol fuhgedaboudit

Literally no green energy initiative is going to mean dick to global carbon emissions if china and india and the many developing nations don't get on board, which they won't and we shouldn't arrogantly expect them to.

You don't get to reap all the benefits of industrialization and then pull the ladder up behind you and say nobody else gets to use fossil fuels for cheap energy to industrialize and actually have a functioning economy. You must live in mud huts forever, poors, because jeff bezos feels woke when he says coal is bad on his most recent totally wasteful space fantasy camp.

^ yep

yeah those million year old core samples don't say anything /cough

They do say something, which is that every dumb captain planet thing enacted by soccer moms in the US does absolutely nothing if the world's largest polluters (china and india) don't get on board. And they can't\won't anytime soon.

There was a funny thing on adam corolla recently where he was talking about a fire under the 10 freeway in LA caused by a huge homeless encampment, and how the city council had recently enacted some dumb thing about how you have to use electric leaf blowers and shit to reduce c02 emissions which suck and aren't nearly as good as gas powered leaf blowers, and how if you do the math the homeless fire completely cancelled out the total net effect of the stupid leaf blower thing for like 4 years or something. Which was of course funny, because both things were caused by the same idiot soccer moms in government.

Yeah they give us a snapshot of atmospheric chemistry data for sure.

What they can't tell us is literally anything else like what was going on at the time. Core sampling doesnt account for major events like volcanic eruptions or massive algae blooms which can change atmospheric chemistry really fast.

To the modern climate scientist, absence of evidence is evidence of absence.

These people all operate under the impression that earth was the garden of eden until we started burning coal

Humans just havent learnt you just shouldnt shit in ones own nest. The earth is the nest.

No matter from which direction you come from it at.
1. God made it for me so im gonna use it.
Oil/gas and minerals/metals from the ground use/abuse. God would not offer me something that will harm me.

OR

2. I'm my own man and Ive learnt things, sciency things so now, what I can take is mine. (hehe) My science will guide me as to how to use it.
Gee mining is expensive...
Enter non sciency money bags who sees only dollars in = a set amount out. This sum put out must grow. Must.
Enter the creative accounting/engineering/production department of ZeroResponsibility.

If by "Garden Of Eden" you mean an unspoilt perfect wonderland leaving a simple man and woman wanting for nothing then I agree.

So I suppose the driven improver types are the "devil" in this scenario hey?

As soon as the apple (the extraction of polluting raw materials) was plucked, all of humanity (except the armish now i think of it) are doomed to the sin of making use of the apple.

Fucking Apple.
