United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Computing requires little oil, while we aren't there yet its safe to assume it will be powered by green energy
your reply in no way addresses this fundamental point.
ditto. even if we only worry about the heat generated, and not the power sourced (assuming your 100% renewable which is not realistic today) - we still have a problem.
In this particular case, the protestors are complaining about oil, not power use or heat generation, so your fundamental point isn't really valid
yes yes we only have a single problem to worry about, thank goodness.
oh wait, no... that's not, actually, the case at all. not even closely.
thanks for your comment tho bellend, when the human race cooks itself this will be a great example of how we saw it coming, but didn't give a fuck.
Your exactly like these stop oil protestors bringing up shit in the wrong place , idiot
yeah, keep sticking your head further into the ground. like there's a right place to remind people we're cooking the planet.
got kids? they're going to despise you if so, you couldn't even be bothered to give two shits about their future.
