It's clear to me that the is not transcending the , but consuming it.

Where do our allegiances lie?

Drones are disturbing critically endangered shorebirds.
Yet another threat to shorebirds along the coastline - habitat destruction, dogs and boats

"Drone disturbance can interrupt birds as they rest or feed. It can even cause them to avoid some locations altogether. This is particularly concerning for species such as the eastern curlew, which migrate thousands of kilometres to breed."

'Regulating drone use near critical shorebird habitats will help us to avoid exacerbating population declines, while still allowing the use of a valuable tool, where appropriate."

Applause & Kudos for saying this!

But... how much I agree with you, we see that old computer equipment just can't keep up with modern software which is full of unnecessary bloat.

I'm using a 32 bit laptop with a small & light Linux (Sparky Linux) as my music player, but start-up takes ages 🙁

Then you come to realise that some Raspberry Pi is probably better for the job, but I don't want to spend for a new set of techno junk that is absolutely unrepairable (+ many other disadvantages of RPi's).

Becoming a Neo-Luddite is probably my best choice 😉

Interesting read.

Also an excellent example how the techno-sphere works.
The technosphere does everything to formalise and structurise things, like in this case something randomly coined "the Anthropocene".

* When did it really start?
* What markers and events do we consider of importance?
* Is there a real beginning and/or an end of this period/event or episode?
et cetera, et cetera.

But hey, does it make any difference in the end?
Will it save any species or prevent any molecule contributing to climate change and the demise of humankind.
No, not at all, all these theoretical, philosophical academic mind games will only speed up the process towards extinction.

I like the term though 👍 😜
