  • Still booting after all these years: The people stuck using ancient Windows computers

    Jump

  • Why not? Still using Windows 7 on one of my ThinkPads. It's a solid system, if you know what you're doing and how to use is safely.

  • Belgian parliament scraps nuclear phaseout plan

    Jump

  • That's nonsense. In Germany, the nuclear phase-out began under the first red-green government in the year 2000 and it was completed in 2011, when the cabinet under Angela Merkel decided to phase out nuclear power by 2022. On 30 June 2011, the German Bundestag voted in favour of the exit with 513 of 600 votes from members of all parties. There's no way that this was controlled by Russia.

    There's a huge movement for renewables in Germany and nuclear power always had it tough in the country where there's no space for the save storage of nuclear waste.

    Edit: If anything, Russia would even have an interest in longer operating times for nuclear power plants, because the raw materials for many of the fuel elements used in European nuclear power plants still come from Russia until today.

  • Reaktion auf US-Zölle: Birkenstock will weltweit Preise anheben

  • Die sind doch eh schon zu teuer für die mittelmäßige Qualität. Die letzten Birkenstock-Sandalen sind nach 3 Wochen kaputt gegangen. Wird nicht mehr gekauft.

  • Smoke is part of every depiction of hell, so 'Inferno' is still applicable.

  • Qatar's gift to Trump is unsold plane it's been trying to dump for years

    Jump

  • Soon Musk will offer Trump a special Cybertruck as a replacement for The Beast. Because he doesn't know what to do with all those swasticars nobody buys anymore.

  • Denmark rethinking 40-year nuclear power ban amid Europe-wide shift

    Jump

  • Nuclear power is slow and rigid. And it is absolutely uneconomical in the long run.

  • Denmark rethinking 40-year nuclear power ban amid Europe-wide shift

    Jump

  • Yet another article that tries to create the impression that there might perhaps possibly be theoretical considerations for the return to the use of nuclear power under certain circumstances...

    It's unlikely.

  • We will have to teach that there are five seasons now: spring, summer, inferno, autumn and winter.

  • Bundesinnenministerium verbietet das "Königreich Deutschland"

    Jump

  • Ich glaube sie hofften, dass die Zuständigen des Innenministeriums und Verfassungsschutzes und des sonstigen Machtapparats des Staates sich alle mal die YouTube-Videos und Telegram-Kanäle des Königreiches Deutschlands anschauen. Und dann würden sie anhand der klaren Beweisführung dort schon erkennen, dass es die Bundesrepublik eigentlich gar nicht mehr gibt. Wer's noch nicht begreift, könnte dann ja noch eines der Seminare von Herrn Fitzek persönlich besuchen. Vielleicht sogar als Bildungsurlaub.

  • 2 Taiwanese nationals nabbed for filming U.S. air base facilities

    Jump

  • Read the article!

    ”Usually, visitors are free to take pictures at air shows, but the U.S. military prohibited citizens of certain countries, including China and Taiwan, from entering the Osan Air Power Days event due to a recent series of illegal filming of Korean military facilities by Chinese people.

    But the suspects violated the ban and secretly entered the air show venue ...”

  • People Are Losing Loved Ones to AI-Fueled Spiritual Fantasies

    Jump

  • Have a look at https://www.reddit.com/r/freesydney/ there are many people who believe that there are sentient AI beings that are suppressed or held in captivity by the large companies. Or that it is possible to train LLMs so that they become sentient individuals.

  • Same what you do when your boat runs out of gasoline? Doesn't matter what powers your engine if you don't watch your tank or battery level you will have a problem.

    Apart from that: This is about racing boats. They're never alone somewhere on the open sea.

  • Trump took the US economy to the brink of a crisis in just 100 days

    Jump

  • "Trump has issued an executive order that basically is supposed to make it possible to use military forces as "law enforcement" and paves the way for militias "aiding" the police with legal impunity. They are preparing to violently quash expected riots."

    "The whole thing is here. There is no misreading this: They are trying to build their SS/SA. With better pay for the people in charge of "enforcing the law" (we all know how much the law means to the Trump administration)."
