Yup, no one outside of China uses anything made with Chinese technology, ever. Sent from my oil-powered mechanical smartphone /s

Der Support ist furchtbar, solange man heile Hardware bekommt, sind die preislich aber sehr gut.

The reason for not reopening nuclear power plants is not “irrational fear”, although that might be the reason for closing them in the first place, depending on your point of view. Reopening them is plain impossible in a realistic timeframe. Since the closure was something that had been decided many years ago, all of the plants that have been closed already are past their service limit and would have to be renovated / serviced before reactivating them, which is a lengthy process (5+ years). Additionally, some plants that were still open actually were used past their safety limits solely because Russia started a war and reduced our access to natural gas, which was meant to be a kind of intermediary (I know, far from ideal), but there is no feasible way of extending their use any further.

In any case, we are not building more fossil capacity. The only kind of power generation that is being built up is renewable. Nuclear is no renewable source, the fuel is finite. Also, I wonder: what is Chile planning to do with their spent fuel rods? They are proving to be quite the problem for us, Google “Endlager Asse” for some sobering information.

The expansion of coal mines is heavily contested here, we had lengthy and sometimes violent protests at the sites which were unfortunately quelled by police. Again, though - no coal plants were opened or even reopened. All of our coal plants have their end of life decided already and will be closed within the next few years.

I don’t know your linked sources (never heard of the site) and am not in the mood for checking their correctness or comparability, so I’m not going to argue about them.

But, pretending that my country matters that much more regarding our emissions is a little dishonest. As a country, we make up less than 2% of Global emissions, with that figure shrinking rapidly (as your sources confirm, we are reducing per-capita and also total emissions year by year). I agree that saving the world from climate change depends on collective action, but kindly shit on countries that don’t take said action and have a much larger impact on the planet (especially per capita), like, say, China, which has been building quite the amount of coal plants in the last few years or the US, which has insane per capita emissions and heavy opposition to any green technology.

The more important meaning in this context, imo, is the first one. Unlike solar, wind, hydroelectric power etc., nuclear energy is fossil in the sense that it uses a finite resource which cannot be replenished.

We haven’t opened up any coal plants in the last 10 years. Only have been closing them down consistently. Go somewhere else with your populist misinformation please.

Edit: also, I’ve been to Chile. 20 million inhabitants (1/4 of Germany) Is hardly “tiny”. And on all those endless bus rides through the Andes and vast windy places, I’ve maybe seen 10 wind turbines total. Similar for solar. Electric vehicles and corresponding infrastructure basically don’t exist. So kindly don’t shit on a country that actually conducts meaningful changes while elevating your own, which evidently does much less.

Well this discovery is about super capacitors and not batteries.

Don’t excuse terrorists with fancy words like “freedom fighters”

We’re not.

It was two weeks though.

Edit: nevermind, OP says two weeks, article says march. My bad.

“a backstage incident involving a female crew member”

The European Broadcasting Union (EBU), which organizes the annual event, taking place this year in Malmo, Sweden, said police were investigating the incident involving the singer Joost Klein and that it would not be appropriate for him to participate.

Which version of raspberry pi?

Assuming it’s a 4, you could probably use LibreELEC. There is a plugin for moonlight game streaming.

Kodi, a very popular and highly extensible Media Center which acts as the GUI of LibreELEC, can play just about any media. Airplay seems to be supported as well.

There is a plugin for Netflix, however note that you will be limited to 720p since you can’t use widevine levels above l3.

I assume you are referring to Ghassan Abu-Sittah, although I can’t find anything tying him to the University of Glasgow.

The person whose video message triggered the ban of the event, however, was Salman Abu Sitta. Different person.

Conveniently left out of the not at all biased article: the congress was canceled because it explicitly broke the conditions under which it was allowed to be held. They aired the live stream of a hate speaker who is banned from political appearances in Germany, because he has broken hate speech laws in the past.

The organizers were explicitly warned against airing this speaker and ignored it - can’t act surprised when the congress is cancelled.

AFD Wähler kastrieren?

What browser and ad blocker are you using that you’re getting ads and autoplay isn’t blocked?

No it’s not. Arm is a RISC architecture. RISC-V also is a RISC architecture.

Arm is explicitly not RISC-V.
