KonalaKoala , in Missouri mother accused of allowing 8-year-old son to drive after drinking too much
@KonalaKoala@lemmy.world avatar

This headline is likely going to make someone think they are going to be hearing, “You are under arrest for allowing an under aged minor to operative a vehicle, including while under the influence of alcohol. You have the right to remain silent, anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of the law. You also have the right to an attorney, if you cannot afford one, one will be appointed to you. Do you understand your rights?”

RagingRobot , in Pesticides pose a significant risk in 20% of fruits and vegetables, Consumer Reports finds

We need to start spraying them with pesticide repellent!!

neuropean , in Reuters photographer Mohammed Salem wins 2024 World Press Photo of the Year award

Guessing it’s not for the calendar year?

Silverseren OP ,

No, it's for the prior year. A lot of awards are named that way.

Endlessvoid , in New York Passed an Ambitious Climate Bill for Publicly Owned Power. The Perfect Partner? McKinsey

I work for a private solar developer in NYS, and I can see that the state regulators are either asleep at the wheel or intentionally complacent with allowing private utilities to let our electric infrastructure rot so they can keep collecting profits off of ratepayers. We have some of the worst utilities in the country and state is currently suppressing a grassroots effort to oust RG&E, who is the worst of the worst. In general though their refusal to modernize their grid is grinding the goal of 70% renewable by 2030 to a quick halt.

I had really hoped that getting NYPA behind the building of renewables would make them a heavyweight that could take the utilities to task for their failures, it’s infuriating that they’ve fallen to more regulatory capture.

Bakkoda ,

There’s a reason the utilities commission used to wait till the rate was the highest it was all season before “freezing it to protect further increases” for a few months. I live 5 miles from NYSEG and my only option is national grid.

Everythingispenguins , in Elon Musk is making millions from verified neo-Nazi X accounts

What I would give for a comma or two…

Stretch2m , in U.S. likely to enact a law soon that could ban TikTok nationwide, President Joe Biden vowed to sign it into law

I found this an interesting perspective: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xEDGZlG_41k

cyborganism , in New York Passed an Ambitious Climate Bill for Publicly Owned Power. The Perfect Partner? McKinsey

Should’ve asked Hydro Québec. They’re already providing a lot of publicly owned hydro electricity to New York.

werefreeatlast , in The GOP Is Blocking A Last Ditch Effort To Bring Cheap Broadband To Poor Americans

Let’s keep it like that? Usually those people are people you wouldn’t want to have a conversation with?

Seasoned_Greetings ,

Poor people? Are we gatekeeping the internet now?

I genuinely hope this is some twisted sense of humor. Otherwise, you can fuck right off.

werefreeatlast ,

It’s twisted humor.

Seasoned_Greetings ,

It’s hard to tell these days. There are people out there who would say this unironically

werefreeatlast ,

I know, but just imagine, these remote places are where republican strongholds tend to be, they had 4 years of strong holding and more but didn’t do anything about it. Instead they focused on diminishing reproductive rights.

melpomenesclevage ,

yeah but silicon valley has pretty good connections, and you dont seem to care, so maybe youre just being classist here?

magnetosphere , in Marjorie Taylor Greene is an idiot. She is trying to wreck the GOP
@magnetosphere@fedia.io avatar

Good. Let her.

disguy_ovahea , in Marjorie Taylor Greene is an idiot. She is trying to wreck the GOP
macaro , in Researchers Develop AI to Predict Resignation Risk With New Recruits

First it’s AI to predict resignation and then what? AI to predict crime? They would probably call it PreCrime. There could be a minority report from people being surveilled. Someone should make a movie about that.

Ultragigagigantic , in Climate damages by 2050 will be 6 times the cost of limiting warming to 2°
@Ultragigagigantic@lemmy.world avatar

Line go up

Temp go up

Ultragigagigantic , in Incarcerated people died 3.5 times more frequently at Covid peak than those outside – report
@Ultragigagigantic@lemmy.world avatar

Sounds cruel and unusual

Pan_Ziemniak , in Biden wants to triple China tariffs on steel, aluminum imports

Former machinist here, not sure if this is on raw material or finished products, but it was definitely a problem in the industry that customers could buy a half as good version of our product for a fraction of the price out of China. Even the shipping time was negligible bc they would crank these parts out so fucking quick, quality control be damned.

Fades , in Gaza war protesters shut down Golden Gate Bridge, block traffic in other cities

Things like this are merely performative and will only make enemies, not enact change anyway

duffman , (edited )

It seems to empower opposition to the cause as well. Also, in Washington this has happened enough we have legislation to increase the penalty for blocking infrastructure.

Its horrible what’s happening to Palestinians why do people keep pretenting the war can’t end at any moment if hamas surrenders and releases the hostages. Iran orchestrates this shit but has the far left wrapped around their finger protesting Israel and the US.

argarath ,

I think you meant israel and instead wrote Iran?
