I'm only ever going to call it "bitch at"

The man who allegedly shot a Minnesota state representative studied at a Bible school linked to a movement that promotes the ‘'Seven Mountain Mandate’' — the belief that Christians should “take dominion” over government, media, education, and other key parts of society.

What is the ‘Seven Mountains Mandate’ and how is it linked to political extremism in the US?

The Seven Mountain Mandate calls on Christians to gain influence, or ‘take dominion,’ over seven key areas of culture: religion, family, education, government, media, business and the arts.

The Conversation

For those not up to speed with the latest AI jargon, I hope to clarify some things:

  • AI: Actually Indians
  • LLM: Low-cost Labor in Mumbai
  • AGI: A Genius Indian
  • GPT: Gujarati Professional Typist
  • API: A Person in India

Every time a company promises a revolutionary “AI” product, they just exploit cheap labor from India.

Just here to remind everyone that the thing calling itself Mechahitler is the same thing people are using as a free therapist every single day.

This was a great idea, and will turn out fine.

It’s not every day you watch a company faceplant so theatrically in public, but Cloud Innovation’s latest stunt deserves a slow clap. Cloud Innovation, which you’d probably never heard of unless yo…

Research from last year estimates that climate disaster costs will be around $38Tn annually with a range of $19-59Tn in 2050. This is around 20% income reduction.

@ExtinctionR Dice este estudio y diagrama que para 2049 España tendrá un 20% menos de ingresos debido al cambio climático. Andalucía y Extremadura un 25% menos. Lo siento por los que aún sigáis aquí si no hacéis nada antes para cambiar las cosas :-(
Me pregunto en cualquier caso cómo se conjugaría esto con un planteamiento activo de decrecimiento. No acabo de encontrar o enterarme de los números. La teoría es que se trataría de decrecer bastante en las cosas que deterioran el medio y la vida, y crecer en otras que lo cuidan y hacen la vida mejor. Pero no parece que la tendencia sea esa...?!

@ExtinctionR degrowth will come, whether we like it or not

not that we were ever on track to meet them
