GiuseppeAndTheYeti , to worldnews in France to raise regulated household electricity prices by 10% from August

France also saw record-low nuclear output as state-owned utility EDF (EDF.PA) repairs reactors affected by stress corrosion.

This is the reason for the increase, but also the 10% they announced is way less than the French energy commission recommended as well. They were recommending a 74.5% increase.

Holodeck_Moriarty , to world in US nuclear missile submarine visits S.Korea as allies talk war planning

North Korea, which test fired an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) last week, condemned the NCG on Monday for “openly discussing the use of nukes”

That’s rich coming from NK. As if they don’t threaten this on a quarterly basis.

It’s a shame that the US did not completely remove the regime under the Korean war tbh.

That would’ve entailed a full on war with China. Which some people - most notably MacArthur - were ok with. I think his plan involved nuking as much of the PLA as possible.

Personally, I think we should’ve done some version of Operation Unthinkable and eliminated the USSR. Alas.

His plan 100% included nuking China. Dude was a lunatic

I’m not afraid of corporate debt woes.

When it leads to layoffs it might affect us all.

Well corporate profits haven’t seemed to be helping us, either.

Num10ck ,

corporate debt defaults are the burden of the banks, which makes them unable to approve loans, which kills off the smaller regional banks and also hopes for corporate growth, so jobs too.

gussybussy , to world in China logs 52.2 Celsius as extreme weather rewrites records

But we all gonna continue to live in denial that global warming doesn’t exist or isn’t significant yet. How bad is this going to be in 5-10 years time with the current rate at which humans are polluting the atmosphere lmao.

Xanthobilly ,

Why are you laughing? We are absolutely fucked unless we act.

gussybussy ,

Because what can I do? The world runs on greed and until that changes I can’t see us overcoming this.

In my opinion we are already fucked. Just gotta ride it out till the end now.

Because what can I do?

I try to focus on being happy and living my own life. These things are civilization level issues, and last 50 years have shown the civilization’s fundamental incapability to face the issue, let alone attempt to solve it at any meaningful scale.

IMO there is nothing wrong with attempting to minimize one’s own carbon footprint, but the futile attempt to push for more significant changes will just lead to disappointment

Then go ‘act’ instead of complaining about other comments online

There’s significant investment in green alternatives. Particularly in China, but in many other places as well.

    Thing to keep in mind on this is that it’s a national regulatory decision based on an EU regulatory decision, and it is expected to be just the first of several more like it to come from it. Meaning, it is likely to spread and it is likely to escalate over time. And even if it’s just an added cost of doing business, it does impact the financial viability of Facebook surveillance-capitalistic model.

    “it’s normal! The world does this every 50 years!”

    “It was hotter last year”

    “You watch, we will have a crazy cold winter this year. Global warming my ass!”

    At least I’m not my sisters children. Poor bastards can barely talk. They’ve got a shit future ahead of them.

    InverseParallax , to news in Long-feared corporate debt woes start to hit home

    Yeah, interest rates cut all ways, and the whole philosophy of leveraged margins falls apart completely when debt isn’t easy and cheap.

    dreikelvin , (edited ) to worldnews in More than 50 pilot whales die after mass stranding on Scottish beach

    This is ridiculous and sad. Cheers to the helpers who managed to get a few of them back into the ocean. It breaks my heart to know the majority just stranded and died on the beach.

    someguy3 ,

    It didn’t say they saved any. It says they tried, failed, and euthanized the rest.

    dreikelvin ,

    I saw it in the dutch news where it was said they were able to put only a couple back in the ocean.

    burningmatches ,

    They don’t suffocate. Whales breathe air. The most common cause of death for stranded whales is dehydration as they get too hot out of the water.

    dreikelvin ,

    Ah right, my bad 🥳 it was late okay?
