“Summed up, the industry’s treadmill is speeding up and this will make production growth more difficult than it was in the past,”

And I am darn happy about that! Still shamelessly talking about growth, that’s just crazy.

The vast majority of poor people is born into poverty and homo sapiens is an animal species.

The real reason is that we humans are a very egocentric animal species with little thought to other humans and even less thought to other species.

I think it helps to realize that we will die either way. Maybe in a decade or two being unable to afford food or some climate catastrophe. Maybe later. Maybe tomorrow a car hits us deadly.

We will die and we don’t know when and how, so try to make the best out of every day and try to be nice to others.

Furthermore fairness is a human concept, we can never count on it.

How about denying climate change?

I know, we have tried this since many decades and it hasn’t worked so far. Maybe we have to deny reality harder.

This looks scary to my layman’s eye.

I’m not op, but just spend an hour on wiki again.

For me it usually just happens randomly. Today it was because watching news which included the start of the last Ariane 5. I was mainly interested, how much “fuel” (propellant) is used and the relation between launch weight and payload weight. I quickly got distracted by rocket engines and read here and there.

Then I am currently reading a book about WW2 u boats, so I’ve read the Wikipedia regarding that specific type of U-boat, the torpedos, the torpedo calculation computer, the lives of several commanders, …

Recently my kid played with clay, so I got to read a little about the process of firing clay, basically wanting to know if I can diy it.

Normally the things I want to know more about just fly in by themselves.

Oh yeah, this is definitely hot! Shoot me up there into the endless fediverse! It’s time to discover all those niche galaxies riding a nice vessel!

The thought that people would unitedly leave Reddit was delusional.

I expected that only a small portion of people would really leave. I think there will be another small wave of leaving people when the 3rd party apps stop working.

But reality is: most humans don’t like change, most humans like convenience. Forums like this are made by a minority, who share knowledge and time and take time to help others out. The vast rest of members is lurking and meme posting.

But I expect the majority to stay, at least now. Probably this blackout helped developing new forums though and maybe Reddit’s popularity will slowly fade, we will see.
