There's currently no indication that the world is deviating from RCP8.5+. Some countries plan to reduce their fossil fuel burning (it's questionable how much will be possible - see Germany) while developing countries pick up every ton of coal they can find. The population curve still looks very alarming to me. 11 billion before the end of the century? Interesting.
Those four scenarios were the four IPCC RCPs. The "worst case" is RCP8.5. We're trending slightly above RCP8.5. The other three include "negative emissions technology" and/or emissions reductions so steep that they would collapse the world economy.
Did you call them and ask what they did to fix it? Call their legal department, congratulate them on fixing the problem, and ask how they did it. You just want to close this out with the police...
Bravo. I wish I had mod points. This article reeks of cognitive dissonance. Things are not looking good at the top level (population growth, resource/energy depletion, environmental degradation like global warming), the limits to growth are here, but there must be something mumble something. Bill Gates demanding an energy miracle comes to mind. Aka unicorns. Technology as the new religion, as if there has to be something you need to believe in.

LOL. At work the word is still "hell no." And as we move away from old crufty SW we make sure that all updates or replacements are open enough so they work with Linux.
I don't think it is. Quantum and nuclear physics were the last major areas that would have an effect on daily life. Science progress on basics since then was in areas that are so far removed from our size and energy scales that they are not relevant to technology.

Ignoring reality doesn't survive election day! News at 11!

Remember Jimmy Carter?
The Keeling curve is going up steeper than ever. If these numbers are correct then positive feedbacks have taken over.
One week after I installed with debootstrap because the old kernel and installer didn't work for me. It was a pain in the ass.
Just wait until computers drive trucks, buses and Ubers, and flip burgers.

I don't see "worst case" in the Times article about Mark Lynas.
The area was a desert at the temperature we'll see in 2050. Why do you call that the worst case scenario?
Much of the US too: http://web.archive.org/web/200...
At least it has voice IO and robotics instead of a glass TTY.
I remember how a buddy of mine got Eliza into a discussion about "juicy cunts". That would have been in 1978-79 or so.
But this only works in competition-free areas because otherwise you could change providers.
That's why I don't do IoT. My cellphone is the closest thing to IoT that I own and the only system that I don't control the software for.
No, it needs data_rate * time_interval at most. If I can't use that it's not "unlimited."
Once fossil fuels run out this century we'll know.
They could pad the packets with random dummy data.
The problem is lack of business for MS, the solution is clearly a fridge that you have to pay SW licenses for.
You also want a hosts file that blocks all the usual ad services.
The only time I ever had malware on a system when we had a worm at work - and it only infected my Windows VM.
No they are generally not fat enough. Only the doughy whites have decades of excess calories stored.

Can I script it and run it in a VM?

Back in the day they shot people to the moon.
