10%, chances are very good that you’re it.
Not that it matters much, postfossil indefinitely sustainable planetary population is a lot less than one billion, perhaps as low as 100 million. It would be just 500000 if we were a just another species our size.
There are solutions like IPFS for decentralized content hosting so downtime of a primary resource is less important.
I am being facetous, of course. Nobody needs to kill people, that will take care of itself. Though it will be the poor and powerless first.
The core problem is human overshoot of the (ephemeral, since transiently elevated by a one-time fossil bounty) planetary ecosystem carrying capability. That is going to take care of itself by reducing our numbers and our consumption levels to what the now reduced carrying capacity can bear. At a guess that would be some 100 million at subsistence level. The process of getting there will suck, though.
Which climate action? The Keeling curve doesn’t care.
So the aggregate numbers don’t show it, but he just choses to believe it because he’s a pollyanna.
Postfossil the longterm carrying capacity of the planet is less than a billion people. Perhaps just 100 million.
What are your suggestions for a planet of 8.3 billion people? Murdering a lot of higher consumers would work.
Interesting, thanks. I’ve seen NixOS requirements in german military projects. And it is very interesting looking at western downed drone teardowns in the Ukraine. I kept looking for NVidia logo there.
You can tell who is evil by their company being named after Lord of the Rings lore.
Lots of cheap plane-type drones do terrain navigation now. And the Russians are busily deploying their military version of Starlink.

Sure, but it was the best tool for science/technology searches, in the hand of an expert user. I’m still salty all subsequent search engines were inferior in that respect.
AltaVista’s advanced search (e.g. the NEAR statement) was extremely effective. Google was never as good even in its best days, nevermind now.
Renewable infra isn’t sustainable, since it can’t be built with renewable energy alone. As such it’s just a fossil multiplier. I make about 2/3rd of my own net power, since my electricity meter is old enough to run backwards. I can’t install more orelse my meter would read negative. I intend to run a Qwen model that fits my 8 GB HBM Radeon card as an experiment during the day, starting end of this month.
If this works I consider running something hotter, and double my PV capacity. Adding AC or an EV would be another option. None of this is sustainable, but not exactly a fantasy.
Are you very sheltered? NEETs are sure a hot commodity on the meat market.
Network stack still not multicore?
You’re not understanding what standing on the shoulders of giants means. Locally hosted open weights models are free/libre and puts you in control of your data. Since we’re talking about hilariously stupid.
Why should one bother?
The fact that you immediately descend into ad hominems indicates that you’re a just another troll that should be posting from hexbear.
Yes, we haven’t been longterm sustainable even since preindustrial times. Worse, the carrying capacity after all is sung and done will be a lot lower than the preindustrial one.
