So as much as this community leans anti-capitalist (including myself), THIS is how the green transition is going to get traction: get the banks and investment firms to understand that the environment is going to repeatedly punch them in the dick if they don’t move away from environmentally catastrophic investments.
Oh but it’s ok, because it’s being exported outside of the environment
/s for those who have not seen “the front fell off”
Mildly surprised the Tribunal of Six didn’t find a way to fuck it up, but I’ll take it
Unfortunately, the structure and nature of our electoral process and state level politics these days make it essentially a given that this sort of thing is going to continue for a while.
A little direct action seems in order
You can literally build a whole new game using the BG3 game engine if you were so inclined
At this point, I’m reading her caginess on a variety of topics as an unfortunate but necessary tactic to combat the fact that big corporate and specific special interest groups (coughAIPACcough) will immediately deploy shitloads of campaign money against her if she says anything more than “wishywashy” about them in an effort to sink her campaign. In the context of Citizens United being effectively the law of the land, this is one of the few pragmatic and effective ways to not run afoul of that whole dynamic. It’s is definitely shitty, but an own-goal in that sense - leading perhaps to a Trump win - is worse. It’d be great if she gets into office, and then drops a TON of detail on these matters, with commentary in the statement indicating that this whole line of reasoning was why she didn’t provide these details before. Something like that might ultimately motivate Congress to do something about that (assuming Democratic (and democratic - small “d”) control after the election, of course).
And yet somehow, the PG&E burden is not, despite the fact that their rank idiocy and profiteering is the root cause of a significant fraction of the major fires in CA over the last couple decades.
Oh wow… that’s terrible all around.
But I guess it’s happening “over there”, so most people don’t care too much about it :(
Who will be the next compressed billionaire?
And yes, I will be unapologetically glib about the deaths of billionaires. They are bad for the world, and they are bad for humanity.
Oh man I hope their launch absolutely flops. Fuck that noise. Seriously, how out of touch with the gaming community can you be…?
escapism intensifies
How is this considered incisive journalism? The choices are “whatever Harris says” and “who the fuck knows, but pretty much definitely worse”. Of course people aren’t using the nuance of Harris’s plans (or lack thereof) as a voting litmus test, because that would be very dumb.
Yoooooo Boeing in the shit now lol
Oh, this is interesting:
This is not related to null bytes contained within Channel File 291 or any other Channel File.
I thought that was the accepted smoking gun at this point. The plot thickens…
Regarding this needing to pass the state House too: Is this supposed to be a contentious vote? Is there some Nantucket/MV NIMBY crap going on? That wouldn’t shock me, to be honest.
That’s ok the repeated Cat5+s will teach the children anecdotally
…in a primarily single player game.
Ok then.
Edit:
lol oops

No you’re not getting what I’m saying.
Getting people with shitloads of money to recognize that portfolios are gonna fuckin TANK when the climate implodes is what’s going to move the needle at the end of the day. They don’t care about anything except ROI. If that becomes negative for anything related to stuff that’s environmentally harmful, that’s what will change the equation for them.
