Google's energy consumption numbers in their new climate report are mind-blowing. 2 years ago they flipped from linear to exponential growth, and their climate impact is blowing out, too.
A WILD testament to the obscene bloat and waste of GenAI:

!["I, a trans woman, believed I had to follow the EHRC interim update and was followed into the men's room by a male security officer and told to get out. It is worth noting that before this I was already shaking with fear about the possible confrontation that could ensue. The security man and the two other men in the room circled me. I said I believed, according to what the EHRC and our political leaders have said, that I have to be in there now.
Now that he infers I am trans, he starts sniggering at me. The other men in the room join him in laughing at me. I tell him that it isn't funny and please stop laughing at me. He doesn't stop and I say "it might be funny to you but to me this is my life and I am scared, scared about being attacked, please stop laughing, it's not funny'. He tells me he doesn't care what I have to say, that I need to get out. So I do.
I leave and talk to the store manager, where again, I have to relay all sorts of intimate and private details, of my background, my trans and intersex statuses, history of being assaulted, my genital configuration. This is humiliating.
I felt deeply unsafe, humiliated, hopeless like nobody cares, violated. I don't think the EHRC lets me use the [service of my gender] so I was just denied service."
