Do what you can, most can stop buying from major chains and buy electronics unrelated to Israel, switch to FOSS software and not watch Eurovision.

Thank you!

Fuck politico - actually time to block all links.

You’re yelling at me, I don’t represent the German government nor did I ever vote for anyone involved. Quite the contrary. I don’t like nuclear for reasons already outlined, you can look up the number yourself to disprove your feelings.

Got it.

Oh no, I didn’t realise you pay more for energy now. Of course then let’s build more nuclear power plants because they’re famously cheap to build, operate and maintain. You sound like all my favorite Germans suddenly outraged by war(crimes) because gas prices went up.

Electricity prices regularly go into the negative on windy/sunny days. It’s not me ripping you off with your energy bill. So instead of repeating populist rhetoric, I suggest you start yelling at your own government. We need to stop importing overpriced LNG and oil and continue to focus on renewables (for Sweden probably geothermal and hydro). Don’t worry, I’ll be doing the same here. Europe can figure this out together if we only start yelling at the right people.

Not sure who you’re yelling at, your communication style is unnecessarily confrontational. I am rarely aligned with what the German government does, nor was I involved in any of the decision making. But I do believe that nuclear has no long term future, especially if we need to import uranium from abroad, specifically Russia.

Well maintained plants might be safe, but we see how every summer several need to be throttled down because cooling water is running out. Noone has figured out where we put the waste, in classic human fashion we bury it in the ground and hope someone will figure it out before that becomes its own disaster.

I don’t claim Germany has green energy, yet it made some significant progress in the past decade. Despite most governments repeatedly making the worst possible decisions. Like crippling the solar industry in the east or handing our tax money over to big oil and gas. Admittedly having to import most of our solar panels from China isn’t great either, but I prefer a once of purchase over a subscription.

Fuck nuclear… it accounted for 6% of the energy mix (-ish… taking this number from memory) and we still don’t know what to do with the waste. Also it creates further dependence on acquiring uranium from Russia. So no, that did not make as big of an impact as many think.

Bro, nur noch ein Sondervermögen bitte. Für die Infrastruktur, bro. Bitte.

Not sure I understand the point here. Banks in Europe ask about the citizenship and you’re free to say No and there will be no issue opening an account. Assuming you have another passport, which everyone renouncing their citizenship must have anyway to not end up stateless.

The tax obligation can be ignored as well, I know plenty Americans abroad who haven’t filed in years but continue to vote from abroad. If needed you can make up with the IRS, but once the citizenship is gone, it’s gone.

The only reasonable explanation I see is the guy working a government job where the US passport could be considered a security concern. But this small minority should not lead to queues.

Gut zu wissen, dass ein paar Menschen mit Verantwortung noch etwas gesunden Menschenverstand übrig haben.

The last two weeks were terrible, I’ve played a few years now and have never seen such a long shitstreak. Is AI making these now?

aromatic *sexual sounds delicious

It doesn’t seem to matter what he does to children

Oh I’ve been on a similar journey, after a year long break I’m back in the education space and things have only gotten worse.

I voiced concern about professors using LLMs to create presentations. The sloppy images with nonsense text are one thing, but it’s hallucinating on actual content. Since I’m learning, I can’t be certain if something on this topic is true or an hallucination. My criticism was understood as me just not being tech savvy enough for AI.

I’ll probably drop the course and get my money back, I could get a chatgpt subscription for a lot less…

I’ve beefed up my legal insurance because I believe the only way to hammer some sense into people and businesses is to sue when their agentic ai makes mistakes. Currently nobody seems accountable for the output and that has to change.

I have run into this issue of needing Microslop for school. I’m allowed to use my own hardware if I install their spyware. So I have two setups:

Portable: Win10 on an old lenovo laptop that just runs their tracking software. I can access the sharepoint, outlook and teams with LibreWolf on that machine, if I must.

When at home I have a virtual machine that also runs Win10 for their spyware. I use LibreWolf on fedora for the sharepoint, outlook and teams.

AI mod is just defending itself, options are slim without an algorythm to manipulate

Sadly the LLMs are already roaming the streets and executing people with 50:50 chances for accuracy. From what I have seen in corporate and education in the last 12 months there is no good faith.

Donnyland ist ja auch der schönste Fleck in der Ukraine, manche sagen sogar der schönste Ort der Welt. Es ist wirklich schön da, die haben das größte Kernkraftwerk der Welt. Das Größte! Das produziert so viel Energie wie kein Anderes. Ist das nicht fantastisch? So viel Energie. Vielleicht könnte man das auf dem Mond nachbauen. Wäre das nicht toll? Donny’s Power Plant auf dem Mond? NASA sollte sich das mal ansehen. Das würde vielen Menschen helfen. Donnyland ist so schön, das dürfen sich die Russen nicht nehmen. Die Frauen dort sind so schön, fast so schön wie meine Ivanka. Ist sie nicht schön? Ein tolles Gesicht hat sie. Das hat sie von ihrem Vater, diese Schönheit. Sie könnte fast russisch sein, so wie sie aussieht. Die haben schöne Frauen, so jung und unschuldig. Putin hat es selbst gesagt. Sie ist schöner als alle anderen Frauen in Russland. Ich habe Putin nach Donnyland eingeladen, er wird auf das Kernkraftwerk aufpassen. So viel Energie und Putin bezahlt das. Ich habe einen super Deal geschlagen. Vielleicht der beste Deal den es jemals gab. Schaut euch nur Ivanka an, so ein schöner Arsch. Da sitzt noch alles richtig. Den hat sie von ihrer Mutter. Oh mein McDonalds ist da.
