(actually I suppose I don't find it weird, it makes sense in the context of all the other, very real issues around genAI + political/social power structures, but it runs the risk of undermining those valid arguments if we aren't accurate, logical and contextual when discussing environmental impact)

I found this really useful, logical and sensible and I dare not repost it as I would be ripped to shreds.. I really care about the climate and sustainability, and I find it weird that this is the one online activity that gets this response when I've never seen anyone shaming gamers for energy use...

Oh interesting! I don't have access to the book, been trying to hunt down more sources...

Ah yes, we pedestrians and public transport users have had all the power for too long... It's about time someone thought of the poor car drivers who absolutely haven't had the whole infrastructure designed around them and don't have any negative impact on their surroundings or the environment 🙄🙄

I'm slightly reassured that someone else got drowned on their way to the dinner... I was soaked to the skin when I turned up and couldn't quite believe how dry everyone else was 😭😂

Thanks to all the @lilacconf.bsky.social organisers and speakers and all the lovely people I've met for making it such a brilliant experience #lilac25

There was a steam train at the station though so that was nice.
