EPA says power for data centers can sidestep pollution laws | Reuters https://www.reuters.com/legal/litigation/epa-says-power-data-centers-can-sidestep-pollution-laws-2026-07-27/

The EPA said if the power plants are not supplying electricity to the grid then they would not be subject to the federal Clean Air ​Act's Acid Rain Program, which has been key to the ​dramatic reduction of smog and soot pollution from industrial ⁠facilities.

@mxchara@seattle.pink Other. GNOME is great on my single-screen side-of-lounge personal laptop, but it just doesn't work for work purposes. I tried all the tiling add-ons, and non work as I want them (mainly lacking deterministic window placement). I'm using Sway there.

@anubis2814 I'm sorry, but some of the things you say are factually incorrect (morbidity vs. flu, self innoculation, ... ). And some of the other replies have already called it out. Noone asks anyone to mask all the time. But masking does work. And it does work, as you say, for any airborne disease. And it's not an all or nothing choice, which I think you also mention. I masked for the last 4 years, and, I've been thoroughly enjoying never getting sick. This rocks, particularly when everyone wonders why they're sick all the time. You're welcome to make your own choices, but please don't misrepresent facts to make yourself feel better. @leechindustries@zeroes.ca

@anubis2814 Fact checking this a bit, COVID continues to cause more deaths than the flu down here https://aus.social/@DenisCOVIDinfoguy/116156731875690195 and there's not a clear seasonality in the COVID spikes, particularly compared to the same plot for the flu, which has a yearly spike on the same week. @leechindustries@zeroes.ca

@nyanbinary 😂 we all think the same... I did this a few days ago https://piaille.fr/@shtrom/116102707985636075 then found a few earlier ones when I went looking. Maybe the piece of insight we can get out of it is which ones we think are the most well known!
