  • … I don’t know if I’d call it sad, as much as kinda baffling. Vim was on every package manager list I’ve seen, under text editors… Big stylised letters, how does one miss that?

    I feel like it’s someone who only uses Linux specifically for (and because of) their work, and has probably never tinkered and casually browsed around in it.

    Yeah, I can see how that can be sad, like a person who doesn’t actually share your culture/hobby after all.









    • Tl;dr :

    Without improbable breakthroughs in Carbon Capture, or devastating energy crises, it’s too late to prevent going above 1.5C (though surpassing it and coming back down may be possible).

    But, de-fossilfuelification of the energy sector is already inevitable due to market forces alone, as well as the technological capital already built.

    Same goes for the actual monetary capital needed for the rapid transition. The amount we need to spend is similar in scope to (other) global-scale government spending programs (on other big issues like COVID, as well as… well, fossil fuel subsidies…)

    What is limiting us, is political will.

    • Tl;dr end

    My opinion now: Interesting stats, funky way to display graphs (worth checking the article for that alone lol), my tldr is way to short to get anything but the spirit of the article. (The droplets of hidden passive aggressive snark in some parts of it, like the “governments procrastinated the solution and now they have to last-minute-panic it” graph, were absolutely refreshing)

    Someone should definitely summon the tldr bot, and honestly, people should just check the article, it’s good, if a little on the doomscrolly side
