@Pledditor Good sir 🫡
@haris_fw @Tablesalt13 Fuck you. We sequester garbage here and don't give a fuck about your 'caste'. If you don't like it gtfo.
The best game for keeping the memory of older people alive
Spot on.
Canada will see this and learn nothing. They will continue to cheer on Mark Carn-holio and his bullshit net zero carbon credit schemes until we all learn the hard way that you can't eat carbon credits.
This is a parable as old as time. We never learn.
A tenant farmer in the Cairngorms says land that sold for £500 an acre a few years ago now goes for £5,000. He is being moved off ground his family has worked for generations, because he cannot outbid the people buying it. The buyers are corporations, and they have no intention of farming a single acre of it.
Here is how the trick works. A company keeps emitting carbon exactly as before. Same factories, same flights, same supply chain, same product. Then it buys a Scottish hillside, plants some trees, and announces to the world that it is now carbon neutral, or, if it is feeling brave, carbon negative. The emissions never fell. It simply bought a landscape to point at.
Take BrewDog. In 2020 it bought a 9,300-acre Highland estate, propped up with public grant money, and promised a million trees and the crown of the world's first carbon negative beer business, removing twice the carbon it emitted, forever. By 2023 roughly half of the 500,000 trees it had managed to plant were dead, killed by drought, with critics noting the planting was drying out the peat and releasing carbon of its own. The advertising regulator ruled its carbon-negative claims misleading. In 2024 it quietly dropped the badge and dismissed the entire carbon credit market as a flood of cheap schemes whose benefit was "questionable, maybe even non-existent." Then it sold the estate to a firm whose actual business is selling carbon offsets.
That is the whole model in one story. Public money in. Dead trees out. A green halo worn for four years and then dropped. The farmer who used to be on that land, gone. The hillside passed to a company that exists purely to sell other people the right to keep polluting.
This is no fringe case. In one recent year, half of every estate sold in Scotland went to investment funds, corporations and charitable trusts rather than anyone who would farm it. A third of the deals for plantable land are now done off-market, in secret, precisely so the local community never gets the chance to bid.
So this is what net zero looks like on the ground. A man who produced food is priced out of his own glen. A corporation that produced emissions buys the glen, calls itself a force for good, and sells the carbon. The land stops feeding anyone. Nobody's emissions actually went down by a gram.
The food was real. The farmer was real. The carbon saving is a line in a slide deck.
And we have somehow decided the villain in all this is the man with the sheep.

Anyone that attempts to restrict Satoshi's ability to spend his coins freely, or worse to outright confiscate his coins, is my enemy. I'm willing to give some of them the benefit of the doubt that may merely be retarded and/or fags.

Your brand new Windows laptop came with dozens of apps you never asked for.
- Ads in your Start menu.
- Telemetry tracking every click.
- Bing hijacking your search bar.
- Microsoft Copilot you can't turn off.
- Recall taking screenshots of everything you do.
One script removes all of it.
It's called Win11Debloat.
Not a sketchy optimizer from a pop-up ad. A lightweight PowerShell script that strips Windows down to what it should have been from the start.
Here's what it removes:
→ Bloatware apps — Candy Crush, TikTok, Instagram, Clipchamp, Teams, and dozens more
→ Telemetry — diagnostic data, activity history, app-launch tracking, targeted ads
→ Ads — tips, tricks, suggestions in Start menu, Settings, notifications, and lock screen
→ Bing — removed from Windows search, your search bar searches your computer again
→ Microsoft Copilot — disabled and removed
→ Windows Recall — the AI that screenshots everything you do, disabled
→ Edge clutter — ads, suggestions, and MSN news feed, disabled
Everything that actually works stays. Your apps. Your files. Your settings. Nothing breaks.
One command. That's it. Your laptop is clean.
Works on Windows 10 AND Windows 11.
Microsoft spent years adding things to Windows that nobody wanted. This script spent years removing them.

Whether it's perfectly accurate or not, this is a good parable.
In 1336 the English Parliament passed an act regulating what foods the various social classes were permitted to consume on different days of the week.
Read that sentence again, because it is doing a lot of work.
The act was one of a long series of sumptuary laws issued across medieval and early modern Europe. It specified that no man whose income fell below a certain threshold was permitted to be served more than two courses at a meal. It specified what kinds of meat could be eaten by whom on which days. It specified that fish was the appropriate food for the lower orders during Lent, and on Fridays, and on a long list of other holy days that totalled something like a hundred and fifty days a year.
The official justification was moral. The actual justification was that meat was scarce, valuable, and the people in charge wanted to control who got it.
Sumptuary laws of this kind appear across European history with remarkable consistency. Edward III. Edward IV. Henry VIII. Elizabeth I. The French monarchy did the same. The German principalities did. The Italian city-states did.
In every case the structure was identical: the upper classes ate freely, the middle classes ate within limits, and the peasants were given a list of days on which animal flesh was prohibited that occupied roughly half the calendar year.
The Catholic Church provided the moral framework. Fasting on Fridays. Fasting through Lent. Fasting on the vigils of feast days. Fasting on the Ember Days. The cumulative effect was that an obedient peasant in the fifteenth century was prohibited from eating meat for somewhere between a third and a half of the year, every year, for his entire life.
The nobility, conveniently, were granted dispensations.
The wealthy paid for indulgences. The monasteries that enforced the fasting rules in theory were, in practice, often the largest meat consumers in their districts, on the basis that the monks needed it for their work.
Now look at what happens when you remove dietary protein from a labouring population for half the year, every year, for centuries.
You get the medieval European peasant. Five foot three on average. Bone deformities consistent with chronic malnutrition. Life expectancy of about thirty if you survived infancy, which most children did not. A population that was, by every skeletal measure, smaller and weaker than the hunter-gatherers who had occupied the same land six thousand years earlier.
The thing the church was calling spiritual discipline was a permanent state of nutritional restriction enforced on the people who did the actual work of feeding everyone else. The people enforcing the restriction were not subject to it. The arrangement was held in place by an institution that owned about a third of the cultivable land in Europe and was, not coincidentally, the largest single beneficiary of the system.
When you read the modern recommendation that meat consumption should be limited to a few times a week, that beans and grains should make up the bulk of the diet, that animal protein should be replaced where possible with plant alternatives, ask yourself who is making the recommendation, what they themselves eat, and whether the structure of the recommendation looks at all familiar.
The peasants had Lent.
We have Meatless Mondays.
The institutions issuing the rules are different.
The arrangement is the same.
Fuck this guy so much
Saying this shit with absolute impunity, like it's normal in any way shape or form, as opposed to ABSOLUTE DYSTOPIA
@francispouliot_ OK....hear me out.....MAID.
I've seen enough 'end of life care' to know 1000000% that if I can avoid that horrific, agonizing shit show I will. It IS more dignified than the alternative.
🤣🤣🤣
Oxford University researchers have discovered the densest element yet known to science...
The new element, Governmentium (symbol=Gv), has one neutron, 25 assistant neutrons, 88 deputy neutrons and 198 assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an atomic mass of 312.
These 312 particles are held together by forces called morons, which are surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like particles called pillocks.
Since Governmentium has no electrons, it is inert.
However, it can be detected because it impedes every reaction with which it comes into contact.
A tiny amount of Governmentium can cause a reaction that would normally take less than a second, to take from 4 days to 4 years to complete.
Governmentium has a normal half-life of 2 to 6 years.
It does not decay, but instead undergoes a reorganisation in which a portion of the assistant neutrons and deputy neutrons exchange places.
In fact, Governmentium's mass will actually increase over time, since each reorganisation will cause more morons to become neutrons, forming isodopes.
This characteristic of moron promotion leads some scientists to believe that Governmentium is formed whenever morons reach a critical concentration.
This hypothetical quantity is referred to as a critical morass.
When catalysed with money, Governmentium becomes Administratium (symbol=Ad), an element that radiates just as much energy as Governmentium, since it has half as many pillocks but twice as many morons.
I have always been deeply skeptical of green energy. It's not free, it's not green, and it's not even reliable. Remind me again why we're supposed to want this shit???
To feed the hunger for 'green' energy, we are bulldozing roads into the planet's beating biological heart.
This is all for 'white gold' - balsa wood so light it defies its own volume, yet stiff enough to reinforce the gargantuan blades of wind turbines. As legal plantations in Ecuador fail to keep pace with global subsidies, the gap is filled by the illegal stripping of the Amazon. We are, quite literally, clearing the lungs of the earth to build the fans of the future.
Since the 1970s, the Amazon has lost roughly 54 million hectares of forest cover, an area the size of France. Access roads are bulldozed deep into these pristine rainforests to steal the wood, leaving permanent scars that disrupt forest succession. This is how environmentalists are 'saving the planet.'
Huge profits drive a voracious hunger; a single turbine blade can require thousands of cubic feet of balsa. The scale is immense - newer offshore blades now exceed the wingspan of a Boeing 747.
We are cannibalising the biological heartwood of the planet - to produce renewable energy.
If you continue to subsidize poverty and failure, you will get more of it. I think that's a Thomas Sowell quote, but sums up what dude is saying.
This so captures Canada I didn't even laugh
I don’t know why everyone is worried about the LNG market. Canada is HERE TO BACKFILL QATAR’S LOST VOLUMES.
If we start today, and work all-out around the clock, in just a FEW SHORT YEARS Canada can confidently deliver a preliminary environmental impact assessment. After that it’ll just be a couple of hundred weeks before the indigenous consulting is complete after which the ascension to final decision by the federal environment minister can take place.
When the federal agencies make their decisions, we can FINALLY BEGIN provincial permitting. This won’t take long, and once provincial permitting is complete we just have to execute a short 5 year ecosystem monitoring study. After that, when we submit final plans to the provincial government, we should be GOOD TO GO AHEAD AND BUILD a very comprehensive community information pamphlet for the mandatory 720 day public comment period.
When the public comment period is complete, and the final investment decision is reached, it’ll be SHOVELS IN THE GROUND on the local fencing needed to secure the site for 2 years to give migratory species enough time to change their patterns.
Once migration patterns are changed, and the final hazardous emissions diffusion studies are complete, the community is consulted, and all permits are obtained, CONSTRUCTION WILL BE UNDERWAY on the monitoring systems needed to ensure that no local Salmon population feel personally slighted by any new infrastructure.
While this sounds like an arduous process, it’s TOTALLY necessary to ensure Canada remains carbon-competitive. Have no fear all those that may be unable to heat their homes in a few short weeks, Canada is here to deliver ENERGY SECURITY TO THE WORLD… unless it impacts the livelihood of one single snail, then you’re on your own kid.
