    Elon Musk’s Colossus 2 data center installed 59 natural gas turbines without permission, report claims — thousands of tons of pollutants reportedly impact black communities in Mississippi already suffering from elevated lung disease rates

    Estimates suggest that about half of the unpermitted turbines generate 2,500 tons of NOx, 4,000 tons of CO, and 22 tons of formaldehyde every year.

    David Seymour suggests smartphones could be banned for under-16s

    The Act leader has suggested smartphones could be banned for under-16-year-olds.

    The Act leader has suggested smartphones could be banned for under-16-year-olds.

    In a speech to a business leaders' dinner on Wednesday night, David Seymour said it's clear anxiety, depression and self-harm has increased in children and young people since the advent of smartphones.

    He has suggested Parliament could prohibit the purchase, possession and supply of smartphones to under-16s, instead only allowing teenagers to use 'dumb-phones', which don't have access to social media apps.

    "We already prohibit adults from supplying minors with tobacco and alcohol, for example.

    "The object is tangible, the rule is understandable, and reasonable adults support the purpose of the law. A smartphone is just as tangible."

    Citing political commentator Ani O'Brien, Seymour said that instead of regulating the platforms, the device should be targeted instead.

    "Put simply, why don't we deal with the hardware instead of the software?"

    The government is already cons

    Quokka Stalka

    I’m really taking my time with this one, it deserves it.

    Wade Roberson’s Quokka, with accessories from Skum, Kaewon, Southpaw Precision, Laffs Dynamics, HWW, and Ciwie Labs. Assembly still in progress, I need to go buy a press or vice. I also think we need a new Defiance buffer tower to fit the Quokka a bit better, I might work on this if I find some time.

    American Summer

    Most of the world shows a notable, and statistically significant, rise in extreme summer heat. That’s not an opinion, it’s a fact. The reason is: global warming. That’s a fact. The cons…

    Three things are evident. First, the hottest Three things are evident. First, the hottest summer of all was the super-killer heat wave of 2003. Second, the eight hottest on record are all after the year 2000 (this year seems likely to become the ninth). Third, there is a distinct (and statistically significant) upward trend since around 1975. Anybody who says this is “just summer” in France is a lying liar who tells lies. This is climate change in action.

    So why is this this post titled “American Summer“? First, it’s hot in the USA too, with Salt Lake City setting a new all-time high temperature record on Sunday of 109°F, just part of a very hot summer across much of the country, only one of many record-breaking hot days. Second, I want to emphasize that the story here in the continental U.S. (CONUS, a.k.a. the lower 48 states, a.k.a. USA48) is both different from, and more complicated than, the story across western Europe.

    The title is actually called "American Summer" so if

    Intel agencies warn of Russian state hackers targeting routers worldwide

    Intel agencies warned that Russian state hackers target internet-facing routers by exploiting weak configurations and known flaws.

    cross-posted from: https://scribe.disroot.org/post/10132693

    A coalition of 21 cybersecurity and intelligence agencies has warned that Russian state-sponsored hackers continue to compromise internet-facing routers by exploiting weak configurations and known vulnerabilities, enabling them to steal device configurations and gain insight into victims' networks.

    The joint cybersecurity advisory was issued by ... cybersecurity authorities from Australia, Canada, the UK, New Zealand, France, Italy, Sweden, Poland, Estonia, Finland, the Czech Republic, Denmark, and the US.

    ...

    The agencies identify communications, defense industrial base, energy, financial services, government, and healthcare organizations as being at the highest risk. While the campaign focuses on routers, the attackers are primarily interested in the sensitive information stored on them, such as network configurations and credentials that can facilitate follow-on compromises.
