"We were told that the internet would dematerialize society and decrease energy use. Contrary to this projection, it has become a massive infrastructure and a rapidly growing energy consumer. In this series of articles, Low-tech Magazine examines the reasons behind the ever-expanding resource use of digital communication and what we can do about it"

Really sad how we have compartmentalized and created dichotomies for ways of thinking, feeling for "creative" "artistic" pursuits and logical, analytical ones. Sucks that there's a schism between art and science

Ever wonder what if physics, math was taught alongside or via fine arts/performing arts? How interesting the pedagogy would be

Imagine learning about food science, biochemistry along with cooking! or fashion design, sewing, drapery along with Non-Euclidean geometry

With the support of unionized longshore workers, Bay Area activists prevented an Israeli-operated cargo ship from unloading.
