👏 🙌 Applause for the farmer who refused to sell his land to data center developers:

Mervin Raudabaugh, 86, was reportedly offered >USD$15 million for his 261-acre farm.
Instead, he sold development rights to a land preservation program for ~USD$1.9 million.
“I love this land. It’s been my life.” = one of his reasons for declining the offer. https://people.com/farmer-86-rejects-usd15-million-offer-to-sell-his-land-to-data-developers-11911310

“A nation ignorant of the equal benefits of liberty and law, must be awed by the flashes of arbitrary power: the cruelty of a despot will assume the character of justice; his profusion, of liberality; his obstinacy, of firmness” — Edward Gibbon (who wrote ‘The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire’)

Very interesting ‘thought exercise’ about Space GPUs “Even if orbital data centers don’t make sense yet, in the long run the singularity is clearly moving into space. Earth intercepts about one two-billionth of the sun’s total output. If #AI scaling continues, compute will eventually move to where the energy is. So space #GPU’s are fun to think about, because they give you a sneak peek at the future. Whether that future arrives in 2030, 2040, or 2050 is another question. https://www.dwarkesh.com/p/notes-on-space-gpus #musk #spaceX #electricity #datacenters

Aktionsb. neue soziale Medien

@neuSoM@bewegung.social

Das Aktionsbündnis neue soziale Medien hat im Januar 2024 einen offenen Brief an die Hochschulrektorenkonferenz (HRK) formuliert. Die Hochschulen in Deutschland werden darin aufgefordert, ihre Auftritte bei X/Twitter "baldmöglichst still zu legen. ... Gleichzeitig sollten Präsenzen auf Mastodon und anderen Servern im Fediverse aufgebaut werden, deren dezentrale und moderierte Gestaltung viel eher mit den Regeln eines demokratischen und nachhaltigen Miteinanders vereinbar ist." tfr

Many institutions are committed to #sustainability. For this reason alone, #digitalsovereignty should be important to them. Two years ago, scientists from @JLBe@mastodon.social and its network published a study on the sustainable use of #smartphones. 👉 https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/sd.2995 It showed that typical #socialmedia apps such as #Instagram, #TikTok, #YouTube, etc. on #cellphones conflict with a number of sustainability goals. Among other things, they cause high #energy consumption, which is not incurred directly on the smartphone, but in #datacenters and transmission networks. A large proportion of the #electricity consumption is due to the fact that these apps do not respect #privacy and data protection, but instead spy on users. The use of #Mastodon and other #Fediverse services is more sustainable because much less data is exchanged between users' smartphones and the service instances.
