Some critics argue that the prestige of the Prize in Economic Sciences derives in part from its association with the Nobel Prizes, an association that has often been a source of controversy. Among them is the Swedish human rights lawyer Peter Nobel, a great-grandnephew of Alfred Nobel.[40]

Nobel accuses the awarding institution of misusing his family’s name, and states that no member of the Nobel family has ever had the intention of establishing a prize in economics.[41] He explained that “Nobel despised people who cared more about profits than society’s well-being”, saying that “There is nothing to indicate that he would have wanted such a prize”, and that the association with the Nobel prizes is “a PR coup by economists to improve their reputation”.[40]

Comparing users to MAU seems disingenuous. The fediverse has ~12 million users, according to fedidb and around 1.1 million active ones.

Most of them on Mastodon.

I am talking about Austria. Its mostly reusable ones made of fabric, or really sturdy plastic/wofen plastic. If you need a oneway one it’s paper. We anyway had to pay for the shoppingbags as long as I can remember.

Thanks for the answer. I was really surprised how little people complained when the shop ones stopped existing. Seems like induced demand. Back then I kept a few, because they are so handy. Well, never used one.

Sorry, fixed it.

Are they talking about something like this

Or something like this

The first one has been forbitten in my country for ~10years and nobody seems to miss them. The second one is used, rarely, for takeout and mostly replaced with paper bags.

Die Rechtskonservativen und die Rechtsextremen ergo “die Rechten”.

Das Lied ist 2004 rausgekommen… Da hätt man noch recht chillig und recht billig alles in die richtigen Bahnen lenken können. Vielen Dank an die rechten Arschlöcher für die zerstörung unserer Lebensgrundlage.

Yeah, but they are…

Love EVs, hate Musk… not sure how to feel :-/

I said it before and I’ll say it again, nuclear proliferation and corruption are the only real reasons to build NPPs. If you build for the climate you build renewable!

I am pretty sure the EU will soon reach the final phase of the electricity transition. Soon it will be more about balancing the grid with storage and upgrading the electricity network and no longer about build out rates of solar and Wind.

“Enlightened” centrism is not the answer…

Feline cute?

Eine deutsche Kleinstpartei versauts für ganz Europa. Mit den Neoliberalen ist kein Staat zu machen.

I think both. But either way, I am fine.

Nice example of a false equivalency…
