Because it fundamentally gives up on the idea of the rich giving up anything for the sake of others.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/weather/rolling-blackouts-hit-california-electricity-grid-for-first-time-since-2001-energy-crisis/ar-BB17ZlRt

quote:

California imposed its first rolling blackouts Friday evening since the energy crisis in 2001, as a scorching heat wave exhausted electricity supplies. The blackouts struck tens of thousands of households and included major swaths of El Dorado County.

The California Independent System Operator, which runs the state’s power grid, declared a Stage 3 emergency alert around 6:30 p.m., the first time that had happened since 2001.

Spokeswoman Anne Gonzales said the grid managers were initially “shedding” about 500 megawatts of power, blacking out between 50,000 and 75,000 households.

However, PG&E alone at 8 p.m. had at least 120,000 homes and businesses in its territory without power due to the statewide emergency, according to the company’s outage logs.

dammit i was 100% on your side, commiserating from afar as your attempts to explain concepts like "tradeoffs" and "avoiding mass death" fell flat in this festering cesspool of depression wailing thread

If you think about it, earth is already a dome, and we're loving that one up, so making more little domes inside the big one just makes the problem recursive

a space colony sounds kinda cool but it's almost a guarantee that at least one person would go mad and gently caress it all up, and that sounds more like a sci fi horror future and absolutely no one has fun in those films

Caught between two worlds...
why does nobody ever talk about the culpability of the gaming industry. components mining, electronic waste, wild power consumption, all with no useful byproduct except a subculture of neurologically mutated human beings with zero physiological resilience or tolerance for frustration, whose visualisation and 3d spatial reasoning have atrophied to nothing, and who are glutted on intangible simulations of the natural world and have lost the ability to interact with other living things

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?
