@Wyatt_H_Knott@mastodon.sdf.org @SteveThompson@mastodon.social Will you feel like ‘oops’ when we all get irradiated? 😉 It’s an alarm being sounded. A good alarm because raising awareness might change a path for the better, say like restricting the number of data centers to just what is necessary, not excessive, that by reports we can’t afford environmentally or economically. 1:2

@Wyatt_H_Knott@mastodon.sdf.org @SteveThompson@mastodon.social 2:2 The thing is with humans, if it can be done, IT WILL BE guaranteed. And some myopic, sociopath rich fuck will be making excuses as to why it’s good for him. In 1963 we came very close to a large scale nuclear exchange. Frankly it’s a miracle we haven’t blown ourselves up yet.
