Large businesses in California will have to disclose a wide range of planet-warming emissions under a new law Gov. Gavin Newsom signed Saturday — the most sweeping mandate of its kind in the nation....
The way companies do it is a lot of napkin math. I worked next to a team that built a service to help other companies figure this out (I provided the sample code and docs they share with customers for onboarding). You plug in some basic info, as an example this building used X kilowatt hours of electricity that the power company says is 10% coal and 90% hydro, which, based on a lookup table that means Y tons of CO2 emissions per hour, add X*Y to your total and move onto the next building. It’s not an exact science measuring actual emissions, more looking for ballpark numbers trying to get rough estimates based on what sustainability consortiums agree is the emission rates for certain things/activities/events. It doesn’t matter if your X is slightly more efficient than your neighbors X, because your maintenance guy is better, both will get the “X” rate for emissions based on the agreed upon value for the thing being measured. The idea is to capture as many things/activities/events as possible to get an estimate of emissions, not a measurement.
EDIT: I didn’t realize the anger this would bring out of people. It was supposed to be a funny meme based on recent real-life situations I’ve encountered, not an attack on the EU....
If I were to venture a guess, it would be that if you receive excess reports for a particular user on your instance causing issues on other instances you can boot said user for being a nuisance stopping the problem at the source rather than just the impacted instances cleaning up the reported content with no way to stop the reoccurring problem short of blocking your entire instance.
That is horrifying. Windows Server 2003 is 8 years past EOL meaning it hasn’t received any security patches since then. For such a highly regulated industry your entire tech department need’s launched into the sun.

Should I use chromium based browsers or firefox?
Chromium has better features, but with google announcing its plan to ‘drm the internet’ I 'm not sure if it’d be a good idea.
Is there a title (Mr/Ms/Mrs) that is gender neutral?
Let’s say there’s someone I want to call Mr/Ms/Mrs [Name], but I don’t know their gender, is there a title I can use that doesn’t assume their gender?
It's actually wholesome that early internet most famous meme/ viral video is a song about "never giving someone up and never letting them down"

How does reporting work on Lemmy? If I report someone on another instance, do the mods from the community I report from get that report?
Asking because I get reports I make, it would seem rather silly to me if I can’t report misconduct because I’m on my own instance....
