#AMRO24 – Dancing at the Crossroads
8th–11th May 2024, Linz (AT)
“Dancing at the crossroads” and invites its community of artists and technologists, activists and developers to focus on the consequences of work automation and data extraction, the environmental impact of pervasive and all-encompassing computing, and the social consequences of a perhaps resistible rise of total AI.

Despite gains in Brazil, forest destruction still 'stubbornly' high: Report
The world lost 10 football fields of old-growth tropical forest every minute in 2023 and despite uplifting progress in the Amazon, the picture elsewhere is less rosy, researchers said on Thursday.Nick PERRY (Phys.org)
Tropical forest loss puts 2030 zero-deforestation target further out of reach
JAKARTA — The tropics continue to lose primary forest at an alarming rate, with an area of tree cover half the size of Panama disappearing in 2023, new data from the University of Maryland’s GLAD lab show. Primary forest loss last year amounted to 3.hayat (Conservation news)

Deforestation harms biodiversity of the Amazon's perfume-loving orchid bees
A survey of orchid bees in the Brazilian Amazon, carried out in the 1990s, is shedding new light the impact of deforestation on the scent-collecting pollinators, which some view as bellwethers of biodiversity in the neotropics.ScienceDaily
#Road building almost always precedes #forest loss, and road density is by far the strongest correlate of #deforestation out of 38 #biophysical and #socioeconomic factors.
Findings of the study imply that the most vital #conservation function of protected areas is limiting roads and road-related environmental disruption. They suggest that burgeoning, poorly studied ghost roads are among the gravest of all direct #threats to #tropical forests.

Ghost roads and the destruction of Asia-Pacific tropical forests - Nature
An effort to map roads in the Asia-Pacific region finds that there are 3.0–6.6 times more roads than other sources suggest, and that unmapped ‘ghost roads’ are a major contributor to tropical forest loss.Nature

Cybertruck Turns Into Large Metal Brick After Going Through Car Wash
It's not exactly confidence-inducing to see a car that's meant to serve as a rugged off-the-grid base — and even a way to get around Mars, according to Tesla CEO Elon Musk — turn into a giant "Tesla Paperweight," as captain.ad quipped, after a routine hosing off.

The other day I tried to read an article (on mobile) somewhere and after of it, there was a screen filling ad with a rotatable 3d model of a watch. So when I tried to scroll past it, the ad basically intercepted my swipe and started to rotate the watch, which made it literally impossible to scroll past the ad. Wtf.
In the end I scrolled up a bit and basically flung the screen past it. What a user experience

What does that mean, "Canon AE-1 Program"? I have an AE-1 and an A-1, is yours not a real camera, but rather, a program instead?
This would really be nice in Tri-X, and is really nice on the Ilford HP5 as well.
You still need to achieve max-white, not just max-black. You can do it with what you have, just go back into the developer room and get it right this time - then I want a copy ;)

#CEF might also be the cause why spotify wayland just doesn't work. Sadly there is not much manpower put behind it, to a point where the community tracks down random things in chromium that doesn't (or shouldn't) even apply to CEF. Honestly wish Spotify would just go for electron at this point.

I have personally encountered executives from Rio Tinto. These are not people of integrity. They have their agenda and will say and do what it takes to achieve it, regardless of the damage to the truth, to people, and to the environment. They want to dig everything up, quick, and secure it for themselves. This is regardless of whether it makes them a profit now, because later people may be desperate to pay them anything.

in reply to Sheril Kirshenbaum • • •we need to understand what power and evil means in human groups. most stories get it wrong with 6000s or years or more ancient misunderstandings.
it is not a thing. it does not emenate from one thing or human or god.
it is some weird group process. humans aparently like to GIVE their power (in the form of calories and attention) to charismatic leaders or ideas, WHILE in the largest groups they can find.
very weird.
evil... thats more complex.. and the stories get it more wrong. 1/n
