"The Economist, like so much news media lately, has produced a series of paragraphs that make me think of the uncanny valley. “In the 1980s Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher built a new conservatism around markets and freedom.” Prove to me that sentence was written by a human, and that an actual person believes Reagan and Thatcher suddenly invented markets and freedom as new ideas. It’s shaped like a journalism-thing, but…that so-called magazine ain’t natural, Jedediah. You run to the house and fetch grandpa’s shotgun."

It's not "emissions" they want to eliminate by regulating the farmers. They want to eliminate the farmers. They want to eliminate food. And ultimately, they want to eliminate you.

'Tree Rings Reveal 1,000 Years of Solar Activity':
"The Sun has a lot of rhythm and goes through different cycles of activity. The most well-known cycle might be the Schwabe cycle, which has an 11-year cadence. But what about cycles with much longer time scales? How can scientists understand them?
As it turns out, the Sun has left some hidden clues in tree rings.
About 400 years ago, astronomers started watching the Sun with their newly-invented telescopes. They noticed sunspots coming and going and began to record their appearance and dissipation. They had no idea what they signified.
Those observations have taught us a lot about the Sun’s activity. The more sunspots there are, the more there is going on inside the Sun. But there are other cycles of longer duration which have an effect on Earth and its climate. And a 400 yr record, though great in some respects, can’t tell us much about the longer-term cycles.
The 11-yr Schwabe cycle is itself part of these even longer cycles. A team of scientists wanted to reconstruct the Schwabe cycle back in time beyond 400 years to understand how it all fits together. To do so, they had to uncover clues left behind by the Sun inside trees. Those clues are in the form of radionuclides created by cosmic rays."

"A share in government, of whatever sort, carries with it duties and responsibilities that correspond with the privilege of possessing it. It is the responsibility of those in power to rule in such a way as to advance the good of the nation, both for the present generation and for those to come. When those in power do not do so, but instead rule for their own personal aggrandisement and pleasure, that is rightly called “tyranny.” “Tyrant” is a word that describes the quality of government, not its constituted organisation. One who rules singly (a king, for instance) is not necessarily a tyrant. One who rules for their own good, rather than for the genuine benefit of the nation, IS a tyrant. And there need not be a corrupted monarchy or aristocracy to have a tyranny. Democracies are perfectly capable of producing them as well."

Indonesian authorities are calling on citizens to activate the Identitas Kependudukan Digital (IKD) as the government is looking forward to simplifying access to public and private sector services.
Explaining the importance of the digital ID recently, the Director General in charge of Population and Civil Registration in the Ministry of Home Affairs, Teguh Setyabudi, says with it, citizens no longer need to show up at government offices to get services, as Gov insider reports.
The official said while over 200 million citizens are encouraged to activate the digital ID application which uses passwords and biometrics on their mobile devices, the country also intends to digitize all government services within the first half of this year in line with a directive issued early last month by President Joko Widodo.
The digital ID, Setyabudi says, will be useful for everyone, but especially for citizens living in remote communities and those with mobility problems, who can, among other documents, verify their identity cards, family cards, and birth certificates in an easy, secure and stress-free many. https://www.biometricupdate.com/202402/indonesia-urges-massive-signup-for-new-digital-id-to-ease-access-to-public-services
