Been way too long since I have made a video, but this remains probably my favorite. Though just realized I made this shortly before my health went to shit and I never uploaded my script with sources. I will fix that during some time off I have for Thanksgiving.

@globalecoguy.bsky.social Any thought on white hydrogen? I haven't seen much talk about it much from a climate standpoint. To me it seems to increase the hope we can de carbonize industrial processes as an alternative to green hydrogen. fuelcellsworks.com/2025/05/06/g...

The weirdest thing about the current era is there is trans women who are bad at computers. Go back to 2010 every trans women on a forum was probably in the top 5 most skilled tech user. Now I see trans women saying they can't figure out how to install Linux.

Running and comparing copilot and deepseak-r1 at work and honestly i think either is at the point where it can save me some typing. If i gotta refactor an ansible playbook add some variables to an old one that didn't have enough to be flexible. I can specify the type of naming and what i am looking

I am going to contribute to the "private burrito taxi" or the "cooking at home from takeout" discourse.
I saw someone claim it is poverty shaming because only wealthy households cooked at home. No I grew up in a trailer house not eating every night. Let me show you 50% of my meals growing up.

I feel like most peoples issues with Linux would be solved if they just accepted they need to run Fedora, instead of distro made by 1 dude one weekend and is going to be out of the fad by next year.

Well I am really sick, symptoms wise it seems like E Coli? Maybe, doctor was concerned enough to make me an appointment already. At least i get this after I already hit my deductible this year so only copays now

Good video, I don't think most of the assumptions i walked into the video with are egregiously wrong though maybe a bit more reductive, a lot of the other information in the video was fairly new to me.
Finally going to sit down and watch this video I think. My general vibe is yes the whole "noble savage" thing is BS, most of the USA is a man made ecosystem, or well a product of human influence on it. Though that is not that unique.

Why do so many people think eating/hunting feral hogs reduces the population. It increase it which is why only states that have banned it like Kansas have got rid of the feral hogs. If you thinking hunting reduces populations you presumably have to think buying a hamburger reduces cattle population

Would love if mineral wool would quit being made with formaldehyde, some brands don't use it so clearly it can be a thing. Fiberglass no longer contains it and it is why it while can be irritating is not that itchy anymore.

Glad Mark Fisher seems to not be talked about anymore. I never could read his books that people kept recommending. Something about the way they are written. Like these are all English words I know but literally none of this makes sense.
I never got how people could parse that out.

Ok, i made the mistake of following some climate change researchers and lawyers focused on LGBT stuff so now my feed is 60% very silly resistance Liberal stuff. There has to be other socialists on here, maybe even other Trotskyists so I can be upset about how much i disagree with fellow trots

Wonder if the pear trees I planted along the sidewalk last place I lived are going to flower this year.
Was happy i managed to talk my landlord into letting me plant fruit trees, sad I had to move before I ever ate them.

New Ioniq 6 design is ugly, not that I would ever be able to afford a new one, hoping to see the used ones get under 20k so I can afford one. So I get the less ugly 2023 model year anyway I guess.

Every time I have to deal with this crap, this is clearly the IETFs fault probably.
I will support whatever economic system manages to get universal support for unnumbered interfaces for ipv4, if i ever have to assign another /31 to a p2p connection I am going to give up on Tech.
