Trump calls wind turbines "losers". Meanwhile in Denmark, our wind turbines currently produce 92 percent of all the power consumed.
But you do you, America. 🤷🏻♂️
(I am aware this is due to the clown in charge, and not what all US citizens want)
@randahl
Randahl, when
“Trump calls wind turbines "losers"” he’s projecting - HE is the ‘BIGGEST loser (also - to be rude which I don’t usually do because I am a lady - a BIGLY gaslighting GASBAG). 💨
I don’t know why they [the people of the US] don’t fire him. 🤔
Meanwhile, other people, who live on this planet, adults, winners, Danes & Australians & others, get on and do the right things… as you say: “in Denmark, our wind turbines currently produce 92 percent of all the power consumed.” Yay! Good for you Denmark! Thanks for showing the way. 🙏🏻🙂

Making fridge rescue #soup
That is everything that looked like it would end up in the food bin if I didn't soupify it
Turns out the bags of root veg cubes wife got for burns night (that we didn't use, because the ready mashed in microwave option was faster) is actually broth mix, with packets of barley
Bonus, broth now with extra celery and carrot
"Chuckie in" soup was what it was called where I grew up
Cheap lunch for rest of the week in flask with me. Yaaaasss

In a month we are hosting the #SustainableICT #PhD Winter School at #ULB in #Brussels. We have an amazing speaker line-up for you and there is still time to register and to come along: https://www.sictdoctoralschool.com/
The #ICT sector plays a contradictory role in shaping #sustainability and #sustainable futures. #SICT2026 aims to explore these tensions across planetary and societal boundaries - from the environmental cost of digital infrastructure to the erosion of public trust and democratic processes.

You're right! Ideal is too strong for the case, as we'd better chose something else. Maybe viable/possible would fit better. However, #WordPress 43% adds #networkeffects to #opensourceinnovation. Otherwise, how would #Brazilianmuseums, which are among the most defunded institutions on the planet, have the muscle to be part of this conversation? The opportunity that the #pluginecosystem opens up for #sustainable #freesoftware development was key to bringing us here.

I wish there was an app for removing Google's AI from my Android phone, though. 😒 Yes I know you're supposed to remove it via some cautiously buried system settings, but who has the patience to practice those magic spells?
@Lambo You wish an app to solve issues with apps from Google 
How about a #de-googled OS? #e_OS #lineageos #grapheneos
Yes, I know, not a single button click, yet there are a few devices with preinstalled versions, #fairphone ...
And there are certainly ways and guides on #sustainable and #sovereign applications of #AI ?
