It’s the ISO banana, that’s kept in a freezer in Switzerland and only taken out once every year to adjust other bananas.

Oh, so there exist some countries.

It’s too bad those are all not the problem, though. (And Russia exports fuels instead of burning them, so the measurement doesn’t count them.) But yes, I was wrong.

It probably both only counts federated instances, on communities that are known, and counts wrong.

Because federation is hard (really, it is), and instances are always losing stuff.

Hum… Does your link state somewhere that any country kept up with their promises? Because I can’t find it.

Overall, it says this:

As of 31 March 2020, 186 parties (185 countries plus the European Union) had communicated their first NDCs to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change Secretariat. A report by the UN stated in 2020 that: “the world is way off track in meeting this target at the current level of nationally determined contributions.”[26]

What means that the world at large is well behind the targets. But all country specific data I’ve found is of countries behind the target.

I don’t think anybody was.

Not slowed down it looks worse. And if you continue a bit, it’s still worse.

Yeah, photos with that gesture are usually just taken in bad faith of somebody doing something completely different.

On the other hand, the video is clear and explicitly of the guy purposefully doing the entire gesture.

The Apple II was very good. I always wished I could get one.

(And by the date, and by the impossibility of it being about the Apple original, that’s exactly the computer the OP is talking about.)

There’s a reason why most people stay on mindless consumerism…

I think the joke is more focused on the problem that you’ll have to precisely count and report every single one of them.

Here in Brazil the government does the same. But it’s often wrong…

It’s still helpful, but well, I wish I didn’t have to check every little detail.

As long as there is an war going on for the rest of Putin’s life, I don’t think he cares about the any of those problems.

All he cares about is that if there isn’t a war going on, Russians will start to look at what their own government does.

Allegiance successfully pledged!

I hope the TikTok users take the hint and move to something else. (You know, something not run by fascists, where they can stay for a while.) Because it’s only downhill from here.

Does it escape basckslashes?

They were faster. At the computers at the time.

They also transmitted data faster, at the internet at the time.

One thing they didn’t do was to allow for meetings. You’d need to go as far as Skype for that. Yeah, Skype worked faster and transmitted data faster, but MS brought it and now it doesn’t.

Also, the other thing they didn’t do was to share your calendar with Outlook. Teams actually doesn’t do that one well, and there are some groupware software that work better (none from MS), but you’ll be getting into the deep woods of software your security team never heard about.

They suddenly showing select videos more times than they have users on the country.

The evidence needed is to determine who exactly and why. The what is very clear.

IMO, I can’t see how making progress on car maintainability would be easier than on car dependency.

One depends on local politics, the other on national (or maybe even national to a foreign nation) politics or somehow convincing a global oligopolist to lose a bit of money to help your cause.

But if you want to work on it, good luck and all the power to you. Don’t stop just because another problem exists.

Community mechanic shops and education need to be more common.

Nah, what you need is fewer cars and to not depend on them to stay alive.

with obvious political agendas

On the case of Brazil, I think it has economical reasons. Meta sells stuff that compete with the social infrastructure it was trying to destabilize.

I would really like to see some laws against media concentration. It’s not even important who the media is. Instead, we have some laws that are the opposite of that, so if we solve the Meta problem, something else is due to break shortly after.

But hey, it’s entertaining anyway.

The line of “ready to move” drivers behind you will make sure any fire truck stays way back and is unable to show up to the first car closing the street.
