Boy abducted from California in 1951 at age 6 found alive on East Coast more than 70 years later

…

Luis Armando Albino was 6 years old in 1951 when he was abducted while playing at an Oakland, California park. Now, more than seven decades later, Albino has been found thanks to help from an online ancestry test, old photos and newspaper clippings.

In an interview with the news group, she (his niece) said her uncle “hugged me and said, ‘Thank you for finding me’ and gave me a kiss on the cheek.”

Chapell go on Chapo

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission adopted measures announced on Friday that ask exchanges to validate carbon offset derivatives, which base their prices on those of financial instruments bought by companies to offset emissions.

Earlier this summer, Treasury secretary Janet Yellen unveiled guidelines for developers selling credits, and for the companies buying them to offset emissions. Former US climate envoy John Kerry has also thrown his weight behind carbon credit markets, launching a state department-led initiative in 2022 aimed at decarbonising regional power sectors.

Despite the political momentum behind efforts to develop voluntary carbon markets, Behnam cautioned that the energy transition would “take decades”.

“This notion that we’re going to be able to just transition to renewables in the near future and not rely on carbon-based energy sources . . . it’s not reality, right?” said [CFTC chair Rostin] Behnam. “The transition is going to take time.”

I’ve found thumbing your nose is the best way to show you don’t give two shits. Sometimes it even calms them down when you show some silliness

Anything can be a project, in basically any industry. Marketing or advertising campaigns, development of new products… A relative works for a huge corp that renovates buildings after flooding and there are tons of different teams of people that need to be coordinated among and between to complete that kind of job. Think of a hospital that is full of mold after a flood and the kind of rigorous restoration needed to bring it back into a usable state.

Another whole category are government contracts: there are engineering and architecture firms that employ thousands of people with hundreds of contracts, having teams of dozens of people making plans for all kinds of shit for the feds, states, and cities (transportation, infrastructure, land use, conservation… You name it). Then all of those plans have things that need to get implemented, usually by construction crews with their own PMs.

“Oh shit Engels we forgot about human greed” – Marx

You’re right, human nature towards greed is the only reason any humans are motivated to do work and that’s why we need capitalism. It’s not like humans do things for other reasons like survival or curiosity or as an output for creativity or genuine passion or for companionship or just plain boredom. Before capitalism people just laid down in caves and died because they had no monetary incentive to survive.

@TankieTanuki@hexbear.net fresh slop for the TT

Yep this is what I was thinking of too

Capitalism is an occult mode of production controlled by a hidden God that manipulates its subjects to engage in great orgies of unnecessary sacrifice and ecstasies of blind accumulation.
