So i should start building my free energy pirate station soon? :p

Yeah im curious about it but it sounds like lossy-er solar farming… Perhaps its about surface area and around the clock availability?

Now i imagine pirate power radiostations…

Same as “re-education” of any type.

Its a concerted effort to eradicate the local culture and assimilate the youths.

Its cultural genocide

Alles gut, danke :D

Ill chek their Mediathek thingy

Longer answer below, but i gotta point this out:

Not having a perfect solution doesn’t mean you’re not allowed to critically discuss the current ones.

Maybe a “good” solution for the specific areas you mention doesn’t currently exist.

Now as to why:
I don’t know the intricacies of the US power grid tbh. Where I am, the main reason why we can’t rely fully on wind and solar yet is because politicians were paid off lobbied for by coal, decades ago, when we could’ve started to shift the whole grid and invest in tech to support solar, wind and water.

Literally cut 120000 jobs in solar alone but “saved important jobs” in coal… 20000.

I’m kinda assuming this delay and ignore tactic also kneecapped the US grid’s development?

Being better than coal, relatively, does not make nuclear “good”.

Oh i didn’t even know about that. Do you have a link handy?

Also upon looking it up a bit, even if we recycle some, it seems like a potentially very nasty process aaaand we still end up with a lot of waste.

I had been doubting my scepticism lately but nuclear simply isn’t the silver bullet it’s getting peddled as.

Out of the loop, what events?

Thanks for the context. Anti woke chuds getting sad about a tongue in cheek tweet to promote queer gamedevs.

As always, freedom of speech != right to attention. Someone blocking you is just as much freedom of speech as you voicing your hatred.

Thats the point. Nuclear makes energy in a safe and clean way, but you can’t just exclude the waste problem from the discussion or dismiss it as “we’ll figure it out” as its so often done in this conversation.

Sure we are reusing some of it nowadays, but we still have tons globally that need to go somewhere

Yeah its a shame. Idk how much “we” can do about corporates misguided copyright craze

I love how much the emulation scene is doing for game preservation

Plus its super interesting from a technical point too

Hahaha that’s the abusive parent telling you you can’t see your partner anymore

The difference is that you get to choose you steam family :')

More kneejerk reactions in a misguided attempt to take on populist talking points while just making fascist politics more socially acceptable.

It can be for sure. I’m just adding to the convo, it’s not as black and white a “weapon” as these tyor of articles make it out to be. Its a lot more nuanced and has a lot of good coming from it as well.

Thing is, it mostly amplifies what u interact with. If youre an eastern german diesel head with racist friends, then thats what you get. More afd bullshit to Spam blue hearts under.

My feed is very leftist, afd-critical and pol-sci focused.

Hm might depend on size? Maybe its too spicy for the northerners :)

there’s also the romanian death squads, also “reforestation” in new zealand with invasive species, buying up farm land just to let it rot, then harvesting the reforested wood and leave it to rot too.

oh i know about the scandinavification of texmex.
my fave is my partner’s “tacopaj”. Absurd and absurdly delicious.
