This got nothing to do with user choice, and everything to do with increasing meta’s psychological profiles of their users as a revenue source

This is probably the best thing I, you, or anybody else is going to read all day.

Should say David Cameron, obviously

Charlotte Church sang From the River to the Sea at a fundraising event for Palestinians and now all the usual people are screaming antisemitism and trying to cancel her. RT if you stand with Charlotte Church and Palestine.

The government is redacting the truth!!!

I'm not surprised but I'm truly disgusted that this narrative of "dangerous fighting age men posing a threat to women and children" is genuinely doing the rounds on the media with almost no push back at all. This is 1930s level stuff.

City of Edinburgh Council decided the Wester Hermiston AI data centre doesn't need an environmental impact assessment. This 250MW development will sit near four local nature conservation sites, including Union Canal, and eight pockets of ancient woodland including Crow Wood. 👇️

A bit of balance??? Israel is an occupying force and is committing genocide, there is no confusion or question. The painfully slow legal process in the ICJ will take years, but it doesn't change the material facts of the situation. Why would anyone want to watch that?

Israel has flattened the centuries-old village of Yohmor in South Lebanon. Nothing remains. Every civilian home has been razed. Every. Single. One.

The Representation of the People Bill takes some steps in the right direction, but the lack of necessary action to root out dark money, foreign influence, and misinformation in UK politics makes it a huge missed opportunity overall- especially the outrageous decision to exclude any discussion of PR.

We don’t have to build data centres at this scale and pace. We can develop them in a way that works for communities, not against them.

Again, totally agreed. It's the amount of energy that is required and the speed it needs to be delivered. The same with water. I cannot see how we can get a government hell bent on profit at all costs to do anything close to the right thing

Totally agree with all your points Paul. AI can also fold proteins, cure diseases, solve mathematical problems, etc., so we do need sovereign systems in shifting international alliances. The existential dread comes from the knowledge it will be impossible to do this without trashing the environment

It's like Labour are trying to ensure Reform win the next election. No change from austerity, no hope, no future for the planet. No wonder so many people are struggling with their mental health.
