I personally find it unusually satisfying when nominal changes like this are enforced because of how badly it makes chuds seethe. Chuds will call out virtue signalling without realising that they are too depraved to even signal anything remotely resembling virtue. It happened when GitHub changed their default branch name from master (slave-master connotation) to main.

There was never going to be any “post-war clean-up” so I am not sure why they are talking about the “challenge” in the first place.

I am not convinced at all by the voltairenet article. The whole basis of it is a translated telegram post of a study that has not been scrutinized. Either way it is very simple to find out whether the author is in over his head or not. When the next COO happens, we can see for ourselves whether Russian delegates put this theory forward and whether it causes a political split as the author puts its.

Regardless the wording of the translation is very vague. “Main cause of local climate catastrophes”. It is not clear at all to what extent the author is trying to discredit anthropogenic greenhouse gas emmission.

If you care for my opinion then I think you are mindbending incomplete information to conform to a bias that you have about the causes of climate change or maybe its existence. I am not an expert on this topic and I have my own biases but neither are voltairenet and especially CLINT. I’ll stick to the currently understood model of climate change until the consensus changes.

I will just add that the no climate emergency declaration is most likely a nothingburger. From its signatories almost none of them are climate scientists. The two Nobel laureates that have signed it are washed up physicists.

As you said the Russian theory does not invalidate current models. If it is correct it will augment existing models so that predictions conform to real world observations.

If you agree with the the first paragraph then you will agree that there is no reason to be sceptical of climate change.

There are no alternate explanations because the explanations that we have make sense. Unless you have reasons to be skeptical I don’t see the point of exercising skepticism for the sake of it. You can wait for the grand reveal of this alternate theory at the COP if you want but you are likely going to be disappointed.

Edit: my bad. Looks like the theory has already been publicised according to the linked telegram post. I can’t assess the merits of it though.

Yeah. Though I feel CEL is definitely fairer than Malenia. As long as your AC is mobile enough it is possible albeit difficult to dodge most of her attacks. I tried the melee build after watching this ongbal video.

Malenia was straight up bullshit because her waterfowl dance is 99% undodgeable if you are too close to her when she begins the windup. I was able to dodge it with bloodhound step before the nerfs. After the nerfs I can’t. I always summon help against her now.

Fitgirl cut ties with Empress because there was a drama where Empress believed that repackers were unfairly benefiting from her work so she throttled one of her new releases in retaliation so that repackers could not get a hold of her cracks. So Fitgirl and a bunch of other repackers decided to not repack games cracked by Empress. Empress being a virulent transphobe was not an issue there.

I beat CEL240 with dual Zimmermans and dual songbirds yesterday. After that I tried to defeat it using laser lance plus pilebunker but I have been failing miserably in the second phase.

when you are trying to do racist asian caricatures, you make the eyes more circular.

I don’t think this is true at all

I’m okay. Sorry.

Inside a westerner there are two wolves

One is Mussolini, the other is Hitler

No sorry I’m gonna die on this hill of an angel like Nuland being treated improperly.

I thought the title says “… if I make antisemetic remarks” so I responded according to that. Sorry about that. I just meant that yoi shouldn’t make them. Doing it out of habit is no excuse either but you probably know that already.

Yes, we are gonna care. Please don’t make antisemetic remarks.

Jesus Christ. Americans are barbarians.

It might be hard to imagine now, but Mr Putin himself told the BBC back in 2000 that “Russia is ready to co-operate with Nato… right up to joining the alliance”.

“I cannot imagine my country isolated from Europe,” he added.

Back then, early in his presidency, Mr Putin was eager to build ties with the West, a former senior Kremlin official told the BBC.

Gotta wonder how Russia never ended up being able to NATO despite this.

“General purpose” instances are something else. Someone claimed that during the Tiananmen protests PLA tanks intentionally ran over students. When I pressed for evidence I was banned by the lemmyshitpost mod for denying genocide. Tiananmen “massacre” is a genocide now too. The Chinese are geniciding themselves.

Isn’t she a physicist?

Why are humans so bad with drawing hands?

The rest of your answer makes sense but this rhetorical question is not helpful IMO. There are lots of things that humans are not good at but at which computers excel.

It’s not as severe as a blackout because I can still see a few bits and pieces. I like to call it a brownout.
