Great PR piece for COP28 which will be held in Dubai and chaired by the CEO of the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company!

Luckily, there haven’t been any documented instances of the UAE trying to greenwash their image by hosting this conference.

dont forget the red bulls and chips. need those when natureposting!

Due to the fact that I will be moving places later this summer, I decided back in March that I would plant some bee flower seed mix on my tiny balcony instead of the usual vegetables. I got the for free from a good friend who works for a nature conservation society.

The results have been great! I constantly see bumblebees, hoverflies, honeybees and all kinds of wild bee species around my flowers. It feels great to provide a tiny feeding spot in a place that is surround by agricultural monocultures and I can only recommend it to everyone who has even the tiniest bit of space left in their garden or on their balcony.

Cerberus heatwave mostly spared us here with only Saturday being a freakishly hot day (28°C --> 38°C temp jump for a day) but it showed me once again how badly prepared most older buildings are for what is to come.

All mammal species in New Zealand except the native ground bats are introduced species, many of them invasive. They wreak havoc on the local ecosystems and have brought quite a few unique bird species near the brink of extinction. I think its absolutely understandable that the New Zealanders want to preserve some of their endemic birds.

Never claimed that the Chinese are that far behind but they just don’t have the same production capabilities as Taiwan or Korea. That might change in a few years tho.

And I guess losing access to modern production facilities in Taiwan ain’t no biggie for the Russians as they plan to produce their own 28nm chips by 2030 (28nm was introduced in 2011 btw) so maybe I’ll game on a Russian CPU by 2055 lol.

First, producing silicone monocrystals does not equal the ability to produce modern chips. The only somewhat significant semiconductor producer from Russia, Mikron Group, announced in 2020 that they would start using the 65nm process, a process that has been available since 2005.

So the biggest domestic manufacturer is 15-20 years behind the West and mainland Chinese manufacturers have a global market share of 8% compared to Taiwan’s 66% (and American lap dog Korea with 17%).

Sorry to break it to you buddy but its not looking good for the Russians

Those are the sides of Apple’s current flagship, Macbook Pro. It is pretty terrible.

Ideally: Topple your government and become a based degrowth socialist society that also invest into adaptation

More realistically: Learn, exercise and grow your network of likeminded family and friends so you have a community to fall back on if times get tough.

Looks very interesting but I don’t fully understand the concept of pattern languages yet. Seems like a concept coming out of architecture and urban planning.

I won’t support vietnamese slander. they make the sickest soups

Thanks for the review. Have it on my shelf but haven’t read it yet, will probably do so this winter.

Feel free to do that :)

You have failed to give a substantial answer. Will delete the conversation above.

Ok bud, please substantiate your extraordinary claims with some peer reviewed studies in known journals. Otherwise I’ll have to delete your comments

I agree! We should try to change the narrative towards a more constructive angle, talking about what makes lemmy unique.

This sticker was made shortly after I joined lemmy and wanted to start some kind of guerilla ad campaign where lemmy users could print out stickers and posters and market lemmy in their city or area. But life happened and other things became a little bit more important for the time being so I just decided to release the best sticker design
