    @slothrop Fair enough. The point of the poll is that I realized a lot of my left-leaning friends do a bunch of things like recycling to help the climate. And then they use LLMs that do orders of magnitude more damage. These same people wouldn't throw trash in a creek or soda cans into the landfill, but they'll use LLMs for the most trivial purposes with minimal provocation.

    @paco Yes exactly! Not least due to the fact that you can’t even run a Google search anymore without interacting with an LLM.

    And there’s the total failure of our political leaders to address the environmental impact of “AI”.

        @paco I'm trying to think of a year in my adult life when I have not done everything except avoiding air travel. Which means those things are just part of the baseline, not "reduction".

        (Some years, I flew twice weekly for work and then again on vacation.)

            @paco Why is this a poll where people can spew their gut feelings? Why don't you look it up and show us the real numbers?

              When I use NoScript in Waterfox, I often don't load much javascript. It can lead to some broken stuff that is funny. Think of all the ads, autoplay videos, and other crap I don't see at the bottom of this techcrunch article.

              @paco
              I ended up turning off No script because between uBlock and an extensive hosts file, it tended to only break sites that actually needed it.

                @v_perjorative Yeah. I’m with you. On my work laptop I have been running no script for almost 10 years. I’ve just gotten used to it. About 18 months ago I started a whole new personal laptop, and I went with ublock but not no script.

                  @paco I browse with js disabled by default (via uBlock Origin) and my favourite is a perfectly readable news article with an “enable JavaScript to make our site work!” banner across the top

                      Introductions should clarify everything right from the start in that way. It would simplify life.
