Perhaps the GP missed in details the first paragraph of the article in which it mentions that while google indeed is backing away from its more general “environment integrity API” for the web, it is perhaps still pursuing a version of this for android devices.
I have to second Prince’s guitar on “while my guitar gently weeps.” Phenomenal.
Also the Talking Heads’ “stop making sense” concert film is very well done:
in their haste, resorted to using burning cow dung
I have questions…
Bot left out this important bit:
Food waste causes 58% of the methane emissions that come from landfills
Is the cheat code “f°551L Fu3L5”?
Seems like it would be worth the effort to find a different source for your sports feed, since otherwise you’re supporting twitter

This is related to the diminishing energy returns on energy invested (see ERoEI). It’s a measure of how much energy it takes (say 1 barrel of oil) to extract a certain amount of energy (also say 1 barrel of oil). When the first barrels of oil were extracted long ago the ERoEI was somewhere around 100, meaning you only needed to use one barrel of oil to extract 100 barrels. Last I heard, it was down to 10. If that reaches 1 then it’s basically game over for oil. There is still lots of oil far underground/undersea but it costs too much to extract.
