@davidho we could have done something about climate change 20 years ago…

I still think someone should organize an ad campaign with Nader voters warning their gen z and millennial counterparts.

@davidho 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Alas, the people who need to hear this won't get the reference.

@davidho yes, and also there is no good interconnection between railways cross borders, which makes it even more expensive. But still CEOs like the one from Lufthansa are crying about the high prices 🤷🏻‍♂️

@davidho That's not the only reason but a big reason.

@davidho Sadly carpooling remains the cheapest and most available mode of transport, would be great if rail catch up.

@davidho that looks AI generated

@davidho

Looks almost romantic, which is a bit unsettling.

@davidho category 2 hurricane across whole Florida was quite an achievement.

@davidho
When AI becomes self aware ?
It will be able to advance its design beyond human control ?
Becoming AI, means being aware of a human threat, and becoming self defending.....If AI controls stuff that we have relinquished ? Then maybe we are on the road to extinction by our Machines?
Hmm?
My Toaster is out to get me !!!
I say I WANT toast
It replies YOU ARE TOAST

@davidho Original article here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-65746524

@davidho This part seems too important to be buried near the end of the article: "If significant changes aren’t made now, by 2050 there will be no safe and just space left."

@davidho
The one for Beijing seems pretty telling. Their changing policies are directly reflected in the numbers.

@davidho interestingly, why is the US so good? They also have no red stripes in there…

@davidho

One day it will be the death of us…

@davidho Pure unadulterated greed.

@davidho seems like something a leftist batch of new congressmen and senators could help with, by getting medicare to negotiate prices and covering more of the pop, including anybody with a need/desire for that drug. that'd be neat

@davidho
Cars out of the city streets! Please charge your cars in your bedroom.

@davidho @pluralistic and EV manufacturers should design charging port on curb side of car.

Looking at you Tesla

@davidho we must target ppm not temperature

@davidho There are plenty here right now who think very poorly of us. Future generations will be no more evolved than we are, and subject to the same manipulation that has made the majority apathetic or unbelieving - except in future generations they will likely be fed the lie that it was people’s fault rather than capitalism. The winner gets to write the history.

@davidho Yeah, I've been seeing this, and I was walking down the street, and at I think 5'8" I was... "Man I can barely have my chin at the front of the hood...

@davidho I'm 5'2" (157 cm) and apparently guaranteed to be a speed bump if I ever encounter one of these things

@davidho I was at a gas station a couple of weeks back and someone had a step ladder out just to check his oil!

@davidho #HumbleBrag

@davidho Well, what did you have to say on the matter?

@davidho

what a great compliment!! I assume you pointed out "tis I, David Ho!"

@davidho

to consume less, we need a world we’re what we use doesn’t need hydrocarbons to function.

car free cities, passive heating/cooling, perma culture, building materials created from earth and sourced on site are all examples of this.

if a town or region is self sufficient, it will demand less global hydrocarbon.

@davidho When I was a kid, I visited a repair shop. They repaired things. So you didn’t have to get something new, because your something old would be usable again.

Such a strange concept.

@davidho while I agree on the CO2 part, are you seriously boosting your own posts? 😄

@davidho I think that's a false dichotomy. I think we can make better activist choices that target bad actors with clear messages. Blocking ambulances and people trying to do school pickups or get to parole meetings or come home after working shit jobs where they're dehumanized all day doesn't build solidarity. Especially with helicopters for the rich.

@davidho Moral relativist! 😉

@davidho
I love your brilliant posting comparing the costs of flooding to one activists protests.
Here are six articles about Australia Flooding.

I will dig through them tomorrow to draft a more intelligent statement.

@davidho: Only because you're trying to run an objective comparison, and ignoring the fact that the kind of people who like to rail against climate activists tend to be the sort of people who feel PvP to be fun and glorious, and PvE boring and nerdy.

@davidho

This is so lovely!

Just beautiful to watch.

@davidho Imagine surfing on those waves!

And the human and other species breathing patterns- inhale 🌊 exhale ...
