the uk is such an embarrassing country to live in, there’s a reason i just say i’m scottish because i hope people forget that its part of the uk. to think that the political class is so devoid of ideas or solutions that they’re now at the stage of begging citizens to delete emails to save some water is just pathetic.

By thier logic wouldn’t everyone getting on at the same time increase stress on the servers and use more water?
what the fuck do you mean delete emails to save water?????? what's the connection
some shit about how servers use lots of water for cooling and that deleting old emails, files, and other data would make them be able to use less water, which would be painfully miniscule in reality when the UK gov is going all in on AI which uses a shit ton more water lmao
doesn't the water go back to a river or something? like it'd be better if the water used goes back to where other water is normally (rivers, lakes, etc) since it should still be clean after the cooling cycle (i think, haven't done any research on it)
i hope we get independence that would be epic
considering how bad things in the uk are the independence argument writes itself lol
true lol
