1·46 minutes agoI know what they are saying. I just don’t think that building a solar farm in Morocco is really colonialist and would push them to still use fossil fuels as claimed. Go to google maps, search for those projects mentioned in the Guardian article and they are being build in the literal desert with enough space around:
However the article is claiming:
European countries are extracting renewable energy from Morocco and Egypt to “greenwash” their own economies, while leaving north Africans reliant on dirty imported fuels and paying the environmental costs, a Greenpeace report says.
But why?
I’ve actually read the Greenpeace report the article is based on and that doesn’t mention your point.
It is actually really a strange report:

I’m not sure why Greenpeace came to this while talking about projects that are building solar farms in the desert.

Try searching for the correct charts. You are talking about global prime energy consumption and it makes sense that this is growing in a world with a growing population, enormous economic growth in China and India and so on.
But if you take a look at Europe: Primary energy consumption has been sinking since 2006 from 18,997 TWh to 15,662TWh in 2023:

The share of fossil fuels is also decreasing:

So this does work.
23·8 hours agoPeertube won’t cut it. Those people in the article have thousands of hours of videostreams there. If you’re streaming at 1080p, that will be around 1.5GB of storage per hour. 4k will be worse. So if you have 5000 hours of videos like the one guy in the article, that is a neat 7500GB or 7.5TB of video. There is no instance around that will allow you to save that amount of videos.
So hosting your own instance would be the only way. Looking at Hetzner storage box, 10TB of data will cost you 25€/month or 300€/years. That is money, but should be possible to pay out of your own pocket.

Just imagine how much energy it must cost to provide this garbage to every mail going through Yahoos servers.
Let’s be honest: Everything that might be “worse” or “annoying” in Firefox for someone is not relevant in comparison to “no working adblocker available”. A browser without adblock is unusable
- a $2000 bed
- with a $19/month subscription
- which is a full linux computer
- full of security holes
- that allows the company to ssh into your bed
- that totally could give those guys access into your local network
- the CEO is flirting with DOGE and is offering them free beds
- they are tracking your sleep data and tweeting about it
WTF?
Die Rechten haben leider die Medien geknackt und sind seit Jahren in der Lage, die Themen zu setzen. Da draußen passieren jeden Tag schlimme Dinge. Menschen werden ermordet, von Fremden, von ihren Partnern, werden im Straßenverkehr von rücksichtslosen Fahrern unter Drogen überfahren, sterben am Arbeitsplatz, weil der Chef Sicherheitsbestimmungen missachtet oder sterben, weil sie medizinisch schlecht behandelt werden. Das passiert jeden Tag zig mal. Was davon medial groß diskutiert wird, bestimmen gerade die Rechten.
11·23 hours agoGerman shepherds shouldn’t be bred at all. They have genetic defects that make them suspect to certain illnesses, such as hip defects. Don’t buy them. They will suffer and you will have an expensive vet bill.
27·23 hours agoThat framing is totally strange. Donald Trump is a madman on a mission and there really is nothing Zelensky could have done to please him.
TBH: It does sound bad, but it is one of the best ways to lower the effort needed for moderating. Currently every idiot from every instance can show up in your community and start spamming. You have to clean up after you’re back from work and have other things to do. Set a reasonable limit on account age and karma and that will keep the biggest idiots, because they will be banned or downvoted to oblivion before they can start posting in your turf.
»Mehr als 95 Prozent der Zusammenstöße von Autos und Zügen passieren aufgrund von Unaufmerksamkeit, Leichtsinn oder Unkenntnis«, sagte der Bahnsprecher weiter.
Das ist schon eine Leistung - da ist halt eine Schranke, eine Ampel, es bimmelt und blinkt und naja, Züge sind jetzt auch nicht wirklich neue Erfindungen wie eScooter, die man nicht in der Fahrschule hatte.
Auch das würde es nicht besser machen. Der Kerl hat Landwirtschaft studiert, ist Landwirt. Der Kerl ist im Bauernverband unterwegs und gilt als Kandidat Bundesagrarminister zu werden. Da darf man schon verlangen, dass er sich wenigstens etwas mit diesem ganzen Klimawandel-Thema auskennt.
Ich bin ja irgendwie old fashioned. Wenn Politiker mit solchen Forderungen in den Wahlkampf gehen, dann sollten sie auch einen irgendwie vorzeigbaren Plan haben. Wenn Söder also das Anknipsen der bayrischen AKWs will, sollte er auch eine Machbarkeitsstudie dazu präsentieren können
Eine wahre Patriotin!
So I now have to buy a VPN to tunnel out of Italy and then another VPN for accessing stuff?
Als kleiner Hinweis: Es gibt diese Attacken aktuell auch in anderen europäischen Staaten, heute z.B. in Frankreich, letztens in Österreich und die Attacke in New Orleans an Silvester haben wir alle schon wieder vergessen. Ja, das kann die Wahl hier beeinflussen, aber wir sollten das nicht nur aus der deutschen Perspektive betrachten, sondern es ist eine globale Terrorkampagne.
