Mostly agree with what others said, it’s fine for me.

Perhaps just a subjective opinion that isn’t bound to technology - I find moderators much more trigger happy when it comes to deletion and even banning.

€16bn buys you roughly half of a 1GW nuclear reactor these days

Not necessarily. Slovenia is planning to get 1,6GW of power for that money. They included current experience (Hinkley and others) in account - but who knows.

When one looks at current state, Germany is pretty much on pollution side while France is always on the green side. Renewables can get you so far but at the same time force you to cover their power with gas/coal based power plants when sun isn’t shinning and wind isn’t blowing. Both of them are still generating plenty of CO2. Bottom line is that unless Germany comes out with plenty more of co2 free renewables and a huge energy storages (specially this is the problem, you can slap more solar panels easily), it will still emit plenty of CO2 no matter what.

Mobility is not electrified enough and there’s not enough public transit. Heating is not electrified enough.

Yea, but not really. Heating is mostly used during winter when sun isn’t as its best. And cars are mostly being charged during the night, when sun isn’t shinning either. Perhaps if hydro and wind were enough, but I doubt it they can power such at scale energy demand. OTOH if there were nuclear energy backed, then yes.

Sure, but then again, there are other elements as well.

Indeed awesome. Sadly no words about recycling such a battery, though it sounds like it should be fairly recyclable.

Cars are probably covered differently by law, like minimum years producer has to offer replacement parts and such. Probably all boils down to the contract for that exoskeleton. Definitely not an excuse for that petty company trying to suck tens of thousands of dollars instead of a simple repair.

Looks like murders of innocent civilians were done by semites… As it’s most often the case.

Ah, ok, I thought you were taking about Windows not being able to run CPU at full speed. But yes, it’s certainly a different OS with ups and downs.

What is your problem with Windows, though?

• except maybe for Abraham Lincoln’s

Yea, I can envision public parking spots around apartments having slow chargers - 8kW something, so the cars can be charged over night for a similar price you have at home. However, that would required government motivation (wisdom) first and upgrade of electricity network which isn’t able to sustain such power. Neither is happening, not even plans. Our governments suck. Funny aspect is that Slovenia is a small country (2M population) and could serve as testing ground for such experiments. I won’t even mention basic income…

Meanwhile in Slovenia - here, have some subsidy for buying a new one and that’s all. Figure out yourself about charging, specially if you live in an apartment.

Yes, true. Albeit they have worse energy density and some advantages as well.

Solid state batteries are supposedly much more fire resistant.

Yes, true, it’s one of the 40,000+ “accidents”.

Apparently US doesn’t have problems even if Israel attacks their own warships… https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Liberty_incident Why would a bunch of individuals matter…

IDF had all rights to defend themselves /s

I’m not sure that serious ML doesn’t need a huge graphics card.

Aligns well with Trump’s republicans I guess.

In comparison Israel is state terrorism supported, armed and funded from West.

US should really rethink Israeli interference into their elections, forget Iran, N. Korea and Russia.
