About this article, one thing that I don't like is that once more the focus is on personal decisions. This shifts the focus from a systemic problem to personal problem. It's the industry that dictates regulations and policies through lobbying. Let's keep our eyes on the goal.

Edit: Of course boycotting the industry would be a great solution, and this doesn't even mean that someone needs to be vegan, or that they are loaded wth money. Or even avoiding bying these products would be great. Still, the most important thing imo is that industries stop doing what they do.

I mean that's sort of the point of the article. Stopping climate change is going to require both systemic and personal change. Media likes to focus on the systemic parts:

mining, manufacturing, and energy production (55.9%); fossil fuels (47.9%); and transportation (34%)

And ignore the personal parts because people don't like to be told "this thing that brings you joy is killing the planet" and are more open to the idea that it's all just the big corporations faults and if we could just control/regulate them we can have a sustainable future without having to change our lifestyle.

We are going to have to change our lifestyle though and meat consumption is going to be a big part of that change. It's also a personal choice, it's not like cars where the system is basically forcing you to drive. You can become vegan or vegetarian tomorrow and the only cost would be to your taste. Sure there are some subsidies nudging you towards consuming meat, but rice and beans is still the cheapest diet there is and no amount of beef subsidies will make a burger the cheaper option.

Okay but what exactly do you want to know? There isn't one single gotcha study that would answer this.

There's articles on crops that waste excess water, like almonds, or technology that does the same, like AI. You then have to use critical thinking skills to put all that together and determine that maybe capitalism is the main issue and not overpopulation.

It's conservative only in that it "conserves our ability to live on this planet". The measures described in the paper can only reasonably be implemented under a socialist government that has taken full control over economic development.

Someone who is "fairly certain" has done, I assume, their own research. If in the end they discover Malthusianism and found it so fitting that they ascribe to it, they have ascribed to fascist ideology.

I understand where you're coming from, but at some point we have to stop saying that people who have every information at their fingertips(the internet), and a world-vetted source if information (wikipedia) very accessible to them, it becomes a farcical ritual to keep defending them via ignorance, when it is, at best, learned incompetence and at worst full throated Nazi ideology.

The problem is that it's incredibly difficult, if not effectively impossible, to actually get those regulations proposed and passed due to how much profit there is for the food corporations, who have bottomless pockets to lobby against those things passing. Collective action by reducing our own consumption is a way to overcome that issue, if done on a wide enough scale.

If you look at the source of the data for emissions it's unclear that it's all from meat production: ourworldindata.org/greenhouse-…

Even if we take at face value that meat accounts for 60% of industrial agriculture emissions, as a proportion of total emissions that is still only 0.6 * 26% = ~16%. It's sizable, but perhaps we should be addressing the elephants in the room, in the "non-food" section, first.

How much of global greenhouse gas emissions come from food?

Estimates of food emissions can range from one-quarter to one-third. Where do these differences come from?

^{Hannah Ritchie (Our World in Data)}

The other emissions are providing necessary value and not strictly producing what amounts to a luxury product. Cars move people, clothes need to be made, resources need to be shipped across the globe, etc... Yeah you can have deeper discussions about how to trim them down but that's a clean, easy 16% that could be won basically tomorrow.

Do you think say perhaps AI emissions are less of a luxury product than food?

in reply to xep

in reply to xep • 1 giorno fa • •

As wasteful as our AI usage is it still has a function that couldn't be substituted. There's no other tool that could be used for, say, a certain subset of public health analysis or massive archival projects or image analysis.

Granted if we were using it in only those cases we'd need a fraction of the capacity. But the emissions we'd cut are much, much smaller than the savings from the meat industry. Last I checked all US datacenters (not just AI) were less than 3% of emissions. Building and running a computer isn't as disruptive as constantly moving millions of tons of meat + feed + equipment and minutae.

Commercial meat is a luxury because it can be entirely replaced by other calories + nutrients + supplements. And this is just a discussion on emissions but the other benefits of going meatless are just as notable (eg: agriculture is the #1 cause of ecosystem collapse; large public health benefits)

in reply to stickly

xep

in reply to stickly • 1 giorno fa • •

Commercial meat is a luxury

This is a take I've never heard before, it's not how I think luxury goods are defined, and I'm now genuinely curious as to what you consider a luxury product. Do you think that eating some chicken is the same as wearing a Hermes handbag, or driving a Lamborghini?

because it can be entirely replaced by other calories + nutrients + supplements.

This reads to me like it cannot be replaced without supplementation, which seems to be a critical flaw for people who are unable to supplement. I'm also of the opinion that calories are not a useful measure for nutrition, since our bodies are not bomb calorimeters.

A luxury is something pleasant or enjoyable but not strictly necessary. It's not a matter of how much more enjoyable it is but just that it can be functionally replaced (Lambo -> Toyota Corolla; Designer bag -> any other bag; Meat -> Plant proteins). Unless there's some rare medical condition that prevents eating anything but animal proteins, we have the means to replace it (as a massive commercial industry at the very least).

WRT alternative diets it really depends on what you replace it with. I believe there are technically some entirely vegan diets without supplements but if you're buying your meat from the store you could just as easily buy supplements from the same place and not worry about it.

I went meatless recently and even as an unabashed meat lover it really wasn't that bad. Vegan/vegetarian meat substitutes have advanced a ton in the past few years when I do get the craving, but I don't notice a day-to-day difference. The main annoyances have been limited restaurant menus and rebuilding my recipe catalog.

I see, so your definition of luxury good is "something that can be functionally replaced." I was thinking of the economic definition.

I don't think meat to be functionally replaceable with plant proteins. Heme-iron alone makes it very difficult to do, since iron from plants is far less bioavailable. What does a vegan diet do for Vitamin B12? Conspicuous consumption is not necessary for survival, but B12 very much is.

I don’t notice a day-to-day difference.

Changes from nutrition can take a long time to become manifest. I wish you longevity and good health.

in reply to xep

Vegans often supplement harder to obtain nutrients, B12 and bioavailable Iron is very cheap and easily obtained, so it's usually not an issue.

IIRC there is exactly one variety of lentil that can supply B12, but otherwise it's mass produced via bacteria fermentation. At a certain age, most doctors recommend a daily vitamin supplement anyway so it's really a matter checking a few labels before you pick one to make sure your multivitamin matches your meatless diet.

I appreciate the well wishes, my doctor is already much happier with my visits 😂

How Many Humans Have Reached Space

Currently, 10 humans are in space, and 642 people worldwide have reached orbit throughout history according to official records.

The question of how many humans have reached space continues to spark public interest. As of late September 2025, ten people are currently orbiting Earth aboard the International Space Station, representing different space agencies from the United States, Russia, Europe, and Asia. Meanwhile, over six hundred individuals have made the journey beyond our planet since the dawn of human spaceflight more than six decades ago.

This figure highlights not only the remarkable progress achieved since Yuri Gagarin’s pioneering mission in 1961 but also the rapid expansion of access to space. From Cold War rivalries to today’s era of international cooperation and private industry involvement, the human presence beyond Earth has grown into a global phenomenon.

Expanding Human Presence in Space

The growth in the number of humans in space reflects a shift from exclusive government programs to broader participation that includes commercial missions. Initially dominated by the United States and the Soviet Union, human spaceflight is now shared by agencies such as ESA, JAXA, and even private firms like SpaceX and Blue Origin.

This transformation has redefined what it means to be an astronaut. Tourists, scientists, and international representatives are now part of the statistics, signaling a future where space travel could be as accessible as air travel one day.

Historical Milestones in Human Spaceflight

The first breakthrough occurred in April 1961, when Yuri Gagarin became the first human to orbit Earth. His journey lasted only 108 minutes but marked a defining moment in the history of exploration. Soon after, American astronaut Alan Shepard conducted a suborbital flight, followed by John Glenn, who became the first American to orbit Earth.

During the 1960s and 1970s, the space race reached its peak with Apollo missions, culminating in Neil Armstrong’s historic moon landing in 1969. These achievements cemented space exploration as a frontier of human ambition and technological prowess. The Soviet Union, meanwhile, pioneered long-duration missions aboard the Salyut and Mir space stations, laying the groundwork for today’s ISS operations.

The Role of the International Space Station

Launched in 1998, the International Space Station represents the largest and most enduring human outpost in orbit. It hosts astronauts continuously, serving as a laboratory for scientific research and a platform for testing new technologies. More than 250 people from nearly 20 nations have visited the ISS, making it the most internationally inclusive program in space history.

The station is also a symbol of post-Cold War cooperation, with contributions from NASA, Roscosmos, ESA, JAXA, and CSA. Despite political tensions on Earth, the ISS demonstrates how collaboration in space can bridge divides and advance knowledge for the benefit of all humanity.

How Many People Have Reached Space

According to the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale (FAI), which defines space as beginning at 100 kilometers above Earth, approximately 642 people have crossed this boundary as of 2025. If using the U.S. definition of 80 kilometers, the number rises slightly, due to the inclusion of additional suborbital flights.

The majority of these spacefarers are from the United States and Russia, accounting for nearly three-quarters of all astronauts and cosmonauts. China has emerged as a significant player since its first human spaceflight in 2003, sending more than twenty taikonauts into orbit.

National Contributions to Spaceflight

The United States leads with more than 350 astronauts, many of whom flew on Apollo, Space Shuttle, and ISS missions. Russia, continuing the legacy of the Soviet Union, has sent over 120 cosmonauts into orbit. China has gradually expanded its space program with the Tiangong space station and lunar exploration ambitions.

Beyond these superpowers, more than 40 countries have sent representatives into space. From Canada to Japan and from the United Arab Emirates to India, the diversity of human spacefarers underscores the global nature of exploration. European astronauts, in particular, have played vital roles in ISS operations and international science collaborations.

The Rise of Commercial Spaceflight

In the past decade, private companies have opened new pathways to space. SpaceX, through NASA’s Commercial Crew Program, regularly ferries astronauts to the ISS. Blue Origin and Virgin Galactic have also conducted suborbital flights, some carrying tourists who experienced a few minutes in microgravity.

This trend expands the pool of individuals who can legitimately claim to have traveled to space. Billionaires, scientists, and private citizens have all joined professional astronauts, raising questions about the future role of tourism in the broader exploration agenda. While critics argue that suborbital hops are not equivalent to orbital missions, supporters view them as vital in democratizing access to space.

What Lies Ahead for Humans in Space

The number of humans who have reached space is expected to increase rapidly in the coming years. Upcoming missions aim to establish permanent bases on the Moon, spearheaded by NASA’s Artemis program and China’s lunar initiatives. These missions will bring a new class of astronauts who will live and work beyond Earth’s orbit for extended periods.

Meanwhile, Mars exploration remains a long-term goal. SpaceX has publicly announced its ambition to transport humans to the Red Planet, potentially within the next decade. If realized, this would represent the most ambitious leap since the Apollo program and could significantly expand the statistics of humans in space.

Expert Perspectives on Future Growth

Space policy experts note that human spaceflight is entering a new phase characterized by international partnerships and commercial investments. “We are at the dawn of a new era where space is no longer the domain of a few nations but a shared human frontier,” said Dr. Laura Forczyk, a U.S.-based space analyst.

Economists also point to the growing space economy, which is projected to surpass one trillion dollars by 2040. As demand for satellite services, lunar mining, and orbital manufacturing grows, so too will the need for skilled astronauts and space professionals.

Public Fascination and Cultural Impact

The fascination with human spaceflight extends beyond statistics. Each new mission captures global attention, inspiring documentaries, films, and educational programs. The stories of astronauts serve as a reminder of human resilience and ambition, pushing the boundaries of what is possible.

Social media has amplified this fascination. Astronauts aboard the ISS share real-time images and videos, allowing millions to experience space vicariously. This direct connection with the public strengthens support for funding and sustains excitement for future missions.

The reality today is clear: ten people are currently orbiting Earth, and over six hundred have ventured into space since Gagarin’s first flight. The journey from Cold War rivalry to a diverse and increasingly commercialized landscape reflects humanity’s determination to expand its reach. With the Moon, Mars, and beyond on the horizon, the number of humans in space will continue to rise, shaping not just exploration but the very identity of our species.

At the macro level most criticism of Artificial Intelligence comes down to some version of SkyNet (the AI from the Terminator films that once reaching self-consciousness turns on humanity to protect itself);

so while at the micro level we wonder about the impact of an increasing use of chatbots on education, social life & the world of work, perhaps the macro critics are right; we're actually confronting an existential threat....

So is AI an issue of 'Don't look up'?

I tend to think of the existential threat stuff as a smoke screen. It paints the AI as the potential threat rather than the people who own and control it. The whole LLM thing is particularly galling: Having illegally expropriated the collective intellectual efforts of humanity they expect to claim ownership of the product for their own enrichment. It is the greatest theft ever attempted and threatens to destroy the social contracts by which we all labour for our sustenance.

Yes, I think the points about distraction & the greatest theft are right on the button... however, as we likely agree the existential (SkyNet-like) threat is the one that often seems to get more traction - which as you say is (in the short-term, at least) useful to the real villains of the piece

It may be useful to compare the advent of nuclear power & weapons as an analogy. Nuclear weapons are certainly an existential threat, but we don't imbue them with self-agency: we are concerned with how people will use them. With AI, there is a theoretical possibility of agency but most impartial experts seem to think we are nowhere near. But just the prospect makes the whole product seem more potent and stokes FOMO in investors and politicians.

In meiner Bubble nimmt es gerade überhand, dass Leute nicht mehr die echten URLs sondern #Google Share Links auf Seiten posten. Wenn man die Seiten sehen will, wird man von Google getrackt, ohne von Google zu kommen (sondern zB von hier).
Das ist natürlich kein böser Willen, sondern Bequemlichkeit der Postenden.

Diese Links kommen wohl aus #Chrome oder dem #GoogleNow Screen. Man kann das Verhalten aber auf Android leicht abschalten:

* "Links zu Webseiten kürzen" ausstellen

Wenn man schon dabei ist, kann man auch gleich "Links in App öffnen ausschalten", dann hält sich auch Godgle Now an die Einstellung für den Default Browser. 😀

Larry Ellison envisions a surveillance state in which techbros rule. '“Citizens will be on their best behavior, because we’re constantly recording and reporting everything that is going on,” Ellison said in an hour-long Q&A during Oracle’s Financial Analyst Meeting last week.'

This is the guy who donated £257m to Tony Blair's institute and wants to use all our UK data to train Oracle's AI. Digital ID cards are a step.on the way.

@grb090423 But Farage is sponsored by Musk. Musk is partnered with Thiel of Palantir. Palantir is partnered with Oracle. Oracle is partnered with Tony Blair Institute.

In other words, Labour and ReformUK are *BOTH* in cahoots with those inventing & implementing this system of the #uk #digitalid - one side openly advocates for it, the other is controlled opposition. Nobody is really against it despite how it's being presented to the public, just follow the money trail.

Text Shot: Sie verstand die Welt nicht mehr, als ihr eines Tages ein Brief von der Polizei ins Haus flatterte. Ihr Auto war am 21. Dezember 2023 geblitzt worden. Nun könnte man meinen: Das kommt in den besten Familien vor, ist doch halb so wild. Bezahlen, abhaken, nicht mehr rasen, fertig. Aber: Ihr Auto war zu diesem Zeitpunkt in der Werkstatt im Raum Passau. Angeblich. Und sie erkannte das Gesicht des Mannes, den das Blitzgerät fotografiert hatte. Es war der Sohn des Werkstattbesitzers. In den folgenden Monaten stellte sich heraus, dass er mit ihrem Auto privat Tausende Kilometer zurückgelegt hatte. Was folgte, war ein langer Rechtsstreit. Der ist jetzt vorbei.

“Cooperate o vi uccidiamo”

Un report dell’Euro–Med Human Rights Monitor denuncia l’uccisione di una famiglia che si era rifiutata di collaborare con le IDF. Tra le altre notizie: negli Stati Uniti si prepara il crimine d’opinione, un’altra azione di boicottaggio contro Israele a Ge

Dal 26 al 29 settembre la newsletter esce in edizione ridotta — se siete a Roma, passate a salutarci al festival di Iconografie!

Nonostante le prese di posizione anche più marcate e l’allargarsi del fronte degli stati che riconoscono lo stato palestinese, continua a mancare un’azione internazionale per fermare il genocidio a Gaza. E quindi le IDF non hanno motivo di interrompere i crimini di guerra. Il primo di cui scriviamo oggi è denunciato in un nuovo report dell’Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor. Sabato l’esercito israeliano ha assassinato 9 membri di una famiglia nella città di Gaza, nel campo profughi al–Shati. Dopo quasi due anni di aggressione di Gaza gli attacchi in cui vengono uccisi tutti o quasi tutti i membri di una famiglia non fanno più notizia, ma questo è un caso particolarmente allarmante: l’attacco è stato lanciato il giorno dopo che la famiglia aveva rifiutato una richiesta di collaborazione da parte delle IDF. Specificamente, i militari israeliani avevano chiesto di formare una milizia locale, che potesse compiere azioni illegali sul territorio nei pressi del campo profughi. L’accordo avrebbe probabilmente preso forma di una nuova milizia analoga alle Forze popolari di Yasser Abu Shabab, il gruppo miliziano sostenuto da Tel Aviv diventato famigerato per come regolarmente attacca i convogli che trasportano alimenti e aiuti umanitari — quando ci sono. Mentre scriviamo non è ancora chiaro se le persone sono le stesse che avevano ricevuto la proposta, e l’hanno rifiutata, o se sono stati uccisi loro familiari. Euro–Med denuncia quella che è a tutti gli effetti una politica ricattatoria, di coercizione: o si accetta di lavorare con i militari israeliani, o si viene uccisi: “Quella che era iniziata come una forma di estorsione individuale si è trasformata in una pratica sistematica e collettiva volta a smantellare il tessuto sociale palestinese, costringendo le persone a tradire le proprie comunità.” (Euro–Med Human Rights Monitor)

Israel-Premier Tech has been barred from participating in the upcoming Giro dell’Emilia cycling race in Italy due to Gaza war protest concerns, organizers announced on Saturday.

The decision follows recent disruptions at the Vuelta a España, where pro-Palestinian protesters blocked the team’s participation, leading to the cancellation of the final stage.

The exclusion comes amid growing international calls to ban Israel from global cultural and sporting events in response to its genocide in Gaza, which have resulted in the deaths of nearly 66,000 Palestinians.

To my disappointment, she appears to miss the difference between what Tomkins called affect (which are universal and very few) and complex emotion (which are cultural, constructed by us and never exist alone, ie. without other emotions modulating, hence complex).

@becha Silvan Tomkins wrote nearly 2000 pages on affect based on that perspective over several decades. The question is why one of the leading emotion researchers today seems to position herself as breaking with tradition by re-introducing that very perspective.

Religion and Libertarian Communist Society: An Anarchist Perspective

Introduction Anarchism, at its core, is a philosophy that seeks to dismantle all forms of unjust hierarchy and authority, replacing them with systems of voluntary cooperation, mutual aid, and communal ownership.

sono orgogliosa che il mio paese faccia notizia nel mondo per il coraggio morale dei portuali del #CALP e #UBSSindacato di #Genova di NON essere complici del #genocidio di Israele contro #Gaza. La Storia NON sarà tenera con il governo #Meloni e con i signori italiani delle #Armi

Dico a G. che la chiamerà A. dal numero 555-123456 per fissare un appuntamento e mi dice di dirgli di mandarle un messaggio via WA per preavvertire della telefonata, perché "non rispondo a numeri sconosciuti".

Mi chiedo perché non aggiungere subito il numero in rubrica e, al limite, cancellarlo tra un paio di mesi quando non servirà più.

Non è che uno possa sempre mandare un messaggio, che potresti anche non leggere, e poi chiamare.

Soziale Medien predigen grenzenlosen Individualismus. Doch wer durch TikTok scrollt, sieht vor allem Kopien. Trends, Ästhetiken und Labels versprechen Einzigartigkeit, münden aber in immer flachere Gleichförmigkeit. Die neue Konformität ist bequem, wird algorithmisch belohnt – und ist gefährlich berechenbar.

I know it was 3000 years ago now, but I want everyone to remember that Portland beat Trump last time because normal people came out every night to resist.

Portland made Trump look weak once. He pulled out everything he had to terrorize and intimidate people, and federal agents got pushed out of the city anyway. He was embarrassed. Now he can do more and he probably thinks that he has more time, but Portland maybe able to prove him wrong.

Portland ended Trump's presidency once, and it can happen again... especially if Portland keeps doing a good job of reminding everyone that the whole invasion is an attempt to distract from #Epstein.

Good morning. I seem to be in a phase of waking up around 3am again. I haven’t had that for months, and it is not welcome. I put a sleep story on, it was about Japanese onsen culture which was interesting.

Today we have some errands to run in the county town, then we’re having drinks with a friend, then I’m cooking a roast, then I’m going to a webinar about strength training and the menopause. Phew!

What are you up to?

A Call for the Palestinian People to Lay Down Arms is a Stab in the Struggle of Our People: PFLP-GC

A call for the Palestinian people and its resistance to lay down arms is a stab in the struggle of our people and the blood of its martyrs, and contradicts the simplest principles of legitimate liberation struggle.

The call to drop the resistance rifle is also a rejection of the olive branch, as there is no value or meaning to any concept of peace or achieving any of our people’s goals with a settler enemy who believes that there is no such thing as the Palestinian people and that our people are merely human animals to be exterminated. The ongoing open massacre in Gaza speaks of something more dangerous and far-reaching than that.
We in the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine – General Command affirm that no party has the right to override our people’s legitimate right to resistance, foremost of which is armed struggle. Our people, who have been struggling for a century and after all their great sacrifices, have not and will not surrender to the pressures of the times and the harshness of what they are going through due to an Arab and Islamic reality that is mostly defeated and lacking identity and will.

The historic challenges facing our Palestinian cause require reconsidering the reality of the Palestinian house and the institutions of the Palestine Liberation Organization to express the concept of the national liberation movement instead of seeking solutions and maps that contradict the pride, history, identity, and liberation struggle of our great people.

A revolution until the liberation of the land and the people.

UN re-imposes sanctions once lifted under nuclear deal sabotaged by West

The UN Security Council re-imposes sanctions once lifted under a 2015 nuclear deal, in a move triggered by European states unfoundedly maligning Iran’s nuclear program, while disregarding the West’s own role in undermining the accord.

The council restored the bans on Sunday at 0000 GMT. They will again freeze Iranian assets abroad, halt arms deals with the Islamic Republic and target the country’s defensive missile program.

The move came nearly two days after the United States and its allies predictably vetoed a draft resolution submitted by China and Russia on delaying the so-called “snapback” mechanism inside the deal that would return the bans.
