‘Pure arrogance’: anger in Finland as Google illegally fells 250,000 trees for datacentre
They should disown them and take back all the land. AND make them pay then for all the needed restoration of nature, several years probably.

Woher kommt Halloween – und was hat der Kürbis damit zu tun?

Das weiß ich nicht. Wahrscheinlich war der Kürbis noch gar nicht erfunden.

Ach was, das weiß doch jeder: Die Türken haben es erfunden! Damals, als sie vor Wien standen. Feste an die Stadttore geklopft:"Hallo! Wien!"

I guess nearly everybody has installed the patch by now. Even myself :)
Maybe we are going to see "scanner" websites for such patch situations in the future, with a world map and statistics where are how many unpatched servers...

I don't know. What does it tell about patches on servers (who don't easily show their internals in such detail)?

What scifi weapon would you want?

It's kind of like saying a missile is a means of transport, not a weapon.
I know only 2 kinds of missiles, both are built for very specific purposes. No good general example ...

This map shows where oil and gas is found. Is there no oil and gas under the rockie mountains (circled red) or they just haven't found any because it's too difficult to drill through the mountains?

Drill, and you'll find out. Oh... wait...

too difficult to drill through the mountains?
Well, it's difficult. So why would you do it.

Will we return to analog technology to some degree?
we, as a civilization
No, LOL.
Only 1 out of ~200 countries (and maybe 2 or 3 others who follow them all too much, but not all hope is lost for them). And even the few ones from there who are still able to think somewhat straight, they also suffer from severe hybris, for example of thinking they were the whole civilization.
how much is it going to affect companies?
Again, I would separate: the current AI providing companies vs all the rest.
All the rest can easily and quickly turn to the free models. New operating companies for them, and self-operating solutions, are already in the making.
The current AI providing companies' economic black hole is not identical to the world's use of current ultra-expensive AI.

Long story, but a means of transport is still a means of transport, not a weapon.
Like the pen is not a weapon, even though they say it is mightier than the sword.
