Microsoft, Your Climate Plan Ran Into a Problem

An open letter to Microsoft demanding accountability on climate commitments. Microsoft promised to be carbon negative by 2030 — but emissions keep rising. Sign the letter and demand action.

Not if we can help it. We worked with SustainSJ to put this billboard up in the community, and we need your help to make sure Microsoft hears about it.

Some useful data in the new statistical review of world energy: China's data centre consumption is several times smaller than the US's. This whole narrative of "beating China in the AI race" is so weird and nonsensical. www.energyinst.org/statistical-...

Anything that provides a financial encouragement for arson is 1,000x worse in this era where fossil fuels are setting the conditions for devastating, apocalyptic wildfires. The answer to this headline is "no" and it shouldn't be up for debate www.hcn.org/articles/peo...

People are betting on wildfires. Should they? - High Country News

Fire survivors say “it’s morally reprehensible,” and experts worry the wagering could lead to arson.

Ford, $F, has rehired human engineers after AI fails to match quality checks

With heat waves shattering temperature records across the globe, leading to needless deaths, let me just say that history will not look fondly on those who put fossil fuel profits above saving the planet.

Tidal to flag and demonetize AI-generated music ❌️ They are one of the few music streaming providers with a well-defined AI policy. Bandcamp is the other, which straight-out bans it.

To say I’m shocked I would be lying. Last month I explained how Vineland NJ is witnessing the abandonment of their pledges first hand. blogs.microsoft.com/blog/2026/06...

Really amazing that the clammy AI bros bullied media outlets into using AI, and have now also created a source of constant lies so they can say the criticisms of their industry are fake and made up DO NOT HELP THEIR LITTLE ECOSYSTEM OF SELF-SUSTAINING BULLSHIT PEOPLE

I have seen HEAPS of this across social, mostly Tiktok and Instagram. Just huge amount of AI-generated anti-data-centre slop trying to cash in on public sentiment and a blatantly popular movement. I hate it so much, but I hate how well these posts do most of all

AI Grifters Are Making Anti-Data Center Slop With AI

There are hundreds of anti-data center Facebook pages churning out AI-generated slopaganda.

Ossoff on his Republican opponents: "They're pro-war, they're pro-tariffs, they're pro-cutting healthcare. Let's find out where they stand on the crooked ballroom and the insurrectionist slush fund."

This is critically important for people to realize. This is not a fantasy or some wild conspiracy theory. Connect the dots and you will see this picture emerging. Elevating private and parochial education over public, controlling the curriculum feeds into this.

New in PN: The assault on higher ed goes deeper than you think "This is bigger than budget cuts. It’s not just a continuation of things like longtime GOP efforts to cut Pell Grants. It’s a wide-ranging assault designed to drastically limit access to higher ed for all but the rich & well-connected."

Yesterday's CPI report found inflation is now wiping out wage gains. Today's PPI report confirms that wholesale inflation has seen its highest annual increase in four years. Food, gas, and shelter costs are skyrocketing, fueled by one man's unilateral decision to go to war.

Wholesale inflation jumps 6% in April on annual basis, biggest increase since 2022

The producer price index was expected to increase 0.5% in April, according to the Dow Jones consensus.

btw, regulators confirmed to us this morning that the 19 new turbines (and the 27 already on site) are not part of an air permit granted in March, meaning xAI has more than 1 GW of unpermitted gas power at Colossus 2 right now

NEW: xAI appears to have added more than 500 MW (!) of unpermitted gas turbines to its Colossus 2 campus in a matter of weeks, according to internal emails between the company and regulators

Big Tech Will Not Save Us From the Climate Crisis

No matter what tech CEOs say in shiny advertisements and in closed-door meetings, Big Tech will not solve the climate crisis, writes Matt Williams.

Soundtrack: The Dillinger Escape Plan — Setting Fire To Sleeping Giants In what The New Yorker’s Andrew Marantz and Ronan Farrow called a “tense call” after his brief ouster from OpenAI in 2023, Sam Altman seemed unable to reckon with a “pattern of deception” across his time at the company:

They believed we lost our minds the first election, and then after he won again…

Hillary Clinton: "I think our allies believe we've lost our minds because they wake up in the morning like we do and see the rants from the president making no sense half the time"

Why do we put the onus on the consumer side when the main drivers of these issues start with major corporations and government?

As energy prices rise and climate change intensifies, NPR wants to hear your questions about spending decisions you'll make that could reduce climate pollution and save you money.

Witnessed the decline of NYC firsthand yesterday. Buskers calmly resolved a territory dispute and a group of skateboarders chimed in for their rendition of Welcome to the Machine.

I think if we keep claiming this as instability or dementia we keep suspending disbelief. He just does not give a fck and that's that.

Garrett Epps@garrettepps.bsky.social · 10mo ago

The President of the United States put up an AI-generated video of himself defectating, supposedly on the heads of fellow Americans. Is it perhaps time for major media to ask whether someone who acts this way is suffering mental instability or dementia?
