Pro-Trump, election-denying #Republican Rep. Pete Stauber took credit for an #infrastructure boost - replacement of a huge bridge between #Duluth, MN & Superior, WI - only to be reminded by Pete #Buttigieg that he, Stauber, had voted "no" on #Biden's infrastructure bill:

The critics are right, rather than have seasonal chaos during to #engineerng works, the #railways & other #infrastructure could be repaired in the first week of January... the UK could have a state-defined #workingfromhome week, with those required to attend the workplace having subsidised travel laid on to avoid the disruption(s), and the whole thing co-ordinated by an active Govt. in the public interest...

Sorry, don't know what happened there, I think I'm hallucinating or something.... sorry

Again, I agree, except that the blood is already of insufficient distance now.

The cloud, corporate, and marketing #infrastructure still subsidizes / enables all of this independent #shortwave radio.

I struggle to grok a vision of the open-source #Fediverse as a place which demonstrates its values to those who most need to see, hear, and read anything about it…by defederating.

@q3k Does any regulator know of this #Sabotage of #CriticalInfrastructure by the #Manufacturer?

I'm shure these trains ain't exclusive to to one country and regulators from @BNetzA and @kartellamt@social.bund.de to @EU_Commission will likely be very interested in such deliberate acts of #AntiCompetiton, #AntiRepair and basically attacks on #PublicTransport #infrastructure done by #NEWAG to fleece customers!

I mean, this is next-level assholeism and makes #JohnDeere and #Apple look like #RightToRepair fans.

Per Minna Ruckerstein via Rob Horning, the infrastructure of oppression (for instance, algorithms, but also, cars) is proffered and accepted as infrastructure of support or even comfort. We gaslight, and gas, ourselves. In re algorithms, we sell ourselves and give to billionaires.

#DistrictCooling and other #infrastructure and #archtectural changes can help increase the efficiency of #cooling #systems and radically reduce the #energy such systems use even as exponentially more people in more places are finally able to access the lifesaving benefits of artificially and more naturally cooled air.

Damaging or destroying #ecosystems and natural #environments is NOT part of, and is directly antithetical to, a solid Everything, Everywhere, All at Once #ClimateChange mitigation strategy.

We must make all things better, not sacrifice one part to benefit another as that merely keeps us treading water.

#Government has a role to play in incentivizing better use of existing #infrastructure towards improving our #climate, like #ParkingLot and other #urban #SolarPower.

"If we used #infrastructure in the #oceans and created #seaweed #islands, we would actually eliminate a lot of the #ClimateChange issues we have today."

"#Seaweeds are a platform of opportunity in #sustainability, #nutrition, and #innovation."

"There's many ways that seaweed as a new #material, or #food, or #feed on the planet can service a better #environment..."

On 8 October the nearby Balticconnector gas pipeline and a communications cable between Finland and Estonia were damaged due to “external activity”.

Who is sabotaging underwater infrastructure in the Baltic Sea? Russia is the prime suspect, but a Chinese ship may be involved.

Finally! For years I have used some of my talks to warn of disappearing #data. Now there is a study quantifying the risk:

Does anyone have an #infrastructure guide for complete beginners that you recommend?
Otherwise I’ll write one.

#IsraelKatz, the Israeli minister of #infrastructure, #energy & #water, confirmed Wednesday that #Israel has stopped the flow of water, #electricity & #fuel to #Gaza. Israel will “continue to tighten the #siege” of the Gaza Strip until the threat posed by #Hamas is “removed,” he said. #Humanitarian organizations have urged Israel to spare #civilians in Gaza from such a maneuver.
