You are on to the issue yourself. First and foremost we need to stop releasing CO2. That in and of itself is not enough, but the most important bit. Some countries (a lot?) has enough tree cover to offset a huge chunk of their CO2 emissions today by trees. Some might even be CO2 neutral, had it not been for the use of wood for fuel. Therein lies the potential. And this is already a mature industry with market dependencies well established.

Resembling this CO2 uptake with man made processes will require a monumental investment in both monetary and energy terms and the output will be pitiful when the net effect is calculated.

So slamming the effect of trees, which does not require any of that development and investment costs because it doesn't solve the entire problem, because it isn't a silver bullet is rather short sighted. It is already today the best tool we have to sequester carbon from the atmosphere for cheap and with a comoditiezed biproduct.

What's wrong with trees? They cost next to nothing and runs on renewable energy.

For me it's the opposite. My body may be on the premises, but mentally...

I never said anyone did, i was just reminded about a joke describing how some actions overshadows other activities when retold among peers.

Which reminds me of that old joke: "but you fuck one coach..."

Edit: just spotted my typo... I'll leave it in😊

Well, that's been the basis for some other products. AMD and Intel comes to mind😊 They both have IP the other need and historically Intel has been the dominant one, but now the tables have turned somewhat.

Exactly. His followers expect there to have been an audience and those fictional people should have been crazy about it...

And to make it worse, they are none too concerned with facts to begin with.

Oh, welcome to the eu. Speed limits are going down, generally. At least in this nick of the woods, we aren't driving as fast as in the eighties. The goal is zero Trafic fatalities.

None of the above. Being kept from gaming.

I feel that is the issue with this post to begin with. Is it a shitpost or not? Seems more like a load of hot air to me

AI content, AI bots in the forums, AI telemarketing, AI answering machines, AI everything. AI will make IRL and stuff like audited national encyclopedias important again. Gone is the promise of the internet. And this is the real reason why anonymity will not be possible online. If we can't identify the poster as a human, it will mean nothing...
