#Solar just became #Europe's biggest source of #electricity – here's the milestone it hit
Generating a record 52 terawatt-hours (TWh) of electricity and supplying 25% of all electricity used in the #EuropeanUnion in June 2026.
That’s the first time solar has provided a quarter of the EU’s monthly electricity. It also made solar the bloc’s largest source of electricity for the month, ahead of nuclear (21%), gas (15%), wind (14%), hydro (12%), and coal (8%).

"Save the Forest, Destroy AI Data Centers"
Fern Gully poster spotted in Sydney

@halcy Had lunch today in a ramen restaurant @RinaVolpina recommended to me. 5/5 would repeat, in case you didn't have enough ramen.

The research keeps piling up. University of Chicago economists, using Census death records through 2022, estimate Medicaid expansion has saved about 27,400 lives, and that roughly 1,600 people still die needlessly every year in the states refusing it.

@mekkaokereke not surprising, we're a bunch of racist assholes, we hate everyone: brazilian, english, chilean, we despise bolivian, peruvian, paragayan... the list can go and on. "negro" ("black person") can be combined with many words to make an insult. I hope we lose.

Linus Torvalds: “I realize that some people really dislike AI, but this is an area where I'm willing to absolutely put my foot down as the top-level maintainer.

Linux is not one of those anti-AI projects, and if somebody has issues with that, they can do the open-source thing and fork it.

Or just walk away.” 😱

This has happened in multiple districts. But the Trump regime keeps firing the U.S. Attorneys appointed by the federal judges and trying to keep Trump-appointed acting U.S. Attorneys in the job, in an effort to have the federal prosecutorial system under Trump’s exclusive control, no check from the Senate. This is part of Trump’s war on separation of powers, including on the judiciary. Courts cannot do justice if the government is represented by corrupt hacks. 4/

@forteller Yes, if it wasn't for Nintendo's family-friendly reputation, nobody would have any doubt about it.

Gaming historian Mr Talida dug into this here. In an early development version of the game the healing lady says "マッ カワイ" (very roughly: "You're cute") instead of "Please let me help you. Come inside."

And the Zelda mangas of the time all play the scenes with the healing lady suggestively. Although in one, she invites Link in, the narrator points out he's only 16, and she gives him a plate of cookies instead:

@reflex How so? He has crowned several trans queens, but when it comes to Alaska and whats her face, I can understand why RuPaul would be hesitant to invite them back. They didnt exactly respect the rules, leading to that disqualification, right?

I just realized that I've been using adblock so consistently, for so long, that I have basically no idea what the average person's experience of the internet is like.

Every now and then I use someone else's device that isn't so locked down. And I'm floored by how useless and annoying the internet is. IDK how people do this.

@lauren oh look.
