  • Solar energy, temperate climates and a self regulation mechanism to distribute heat well, liquid and clean water, plants and animals providing nutrition, materials for anything from a clay hut to microchips...

  • The issue of China and Russia seeking to destabilize European countries should not be equated with accusing and crushing every protest movement as being funded by either. Incidentally the movements where that is actually known, Fascists and other far-right are getting a rather light treatment, even though their ties to Russia and China are well known, such as with the AfD in Germany and related movements.

    Going back to Palestine, Israel has a rather ambiguous relationship with Russia and happily throws European countries under the bus, if it servers their own interests. For instance Israel supplied Russia with surveillance drones after Russia annexed Crimea and started to have "green men" appear in Donetsk and Lushansk. Israel also wanted Russia to keep a military presence in Syria, and even told the Ukrainian government behind closed doors it should just surrender to Russia.

    So governments like in the UK or Germany are helping Russia triplefold. First by supporting Israel against EU interests, then by eroding civil rights with authoritarian crackdowns as well as supporting Israeli war crimes, thereby legitimizing Russias brutal regime and finally by continuously strengthening the Fascists that are back by Russia.

    Instead of addressing these issues, people who protest against that are brandished and repressed under the guise of fighting Russian influence, which is a transparent lie, once you look at the whole picture.

  • The UK and other EU countries are becoming increasingly authoritarian. Crackdowns on peaceful protest, branding protests against genocide and against climate change as "terrorism", Crackdowns on progressive media with illegal searches and seizures of equipment, attempts to influence press directly, cooperation with far right and fascist media to discredit peaceful protests while downplaying racist riots, Attacks on whistleblowers such as the torture of Julian Assange...

    All of these are justified with some external threat and alleging that people who care about human rights, climate change or want their governments not to engage in severe crimes are painted as "foreign agents" in order to not address the question, why the UK and other governments are engaged in severe crimes.

    At the same time taxes for the rich are reduced, austerity measures are hardened and Fascists are on the rise, with the complicity or inaction of the supposed "centrist" governments. All of this is doing Russia and China a great favor.

  • You check security critical components to be non defective before using them. Security systems have fail-safes and redundancies.

    With due diligence it is not possible for established systems to just fail in a way that is killing a dozen people. The technology isn't new and there is plenty of cable or cog-wheel railways operating around the world, so there is established practices for security.

  • Palestine action has been protesting for many years, in particular at weapons manufacturers, whose weapons are illegally used by the Israeli occupation. The UK is, again illegally, using Brize Norton to facilitate weapons shipments and intelligence flights for the illegal Israeli occupation, possibly implicating itself directly in war crimes and crimes against humanity, war of aggression and annexation.

    Equating non violent direct action and civil disobedience with "terrorism" is an authoritarian move, setting a precedent to increasingly crack down on civil liberties in the UK, making it more similar to Russia, China, Iran, etc. in how it treats freedom of speech, freedom of press and freedom of protest.

    The UK could just not use their military resources for illegal acts, possibly implicating it in war crimes, crimes against humanity, war of aggression and annexation.

  • Yeah, it is those damn foreigners that slashed taxes, privatized infrastructure, gutted social systems, "liberated" the markets and caused the birth rates to drop below stability rates by making life unaffordable. Also climate change is those damn foreigners fault. After all the Steam Engine and industrialization are known to be inventions of the devilish Maori tribes in New Zealand, who came to pillage unsuspecting and peaceful Europe on their raiding boats.

  • Hey that is unfair. There is plenty of places with good weather.

  • I think that is a bit contradictorary. Unless there is an earthquake or other mayor event, technical systems should not fail under proper maintenance. Especially if the system has been operated since more than a hundred years now.

    That realistically only leaves inadequate maintenance or sabotage. Both aren't "tragic accidents".

  • If you want to be a thoughtful consumer, it means you got to be thinking about something more than just the price and your perceived use of a product.

    There must be some ethical consideration that also influences your purchase. So we need to talk about which ethical considerations are important and not aiding and abetting Israeli crimes through financing their economy or companies that provide them with arms or other military use items, is a quite important ethical consideration.

    It is also a legal obligation as the ICJ ruled https://www.icj-cij.org/sites/default/files/case-related/186/186-20240719-adv-01-00-en.pdf:

    1. Taking note of the resolutions of the Security Council and General Assembly, the Court is of the view that Member States are under an obligation not to recognize any changes in the physical character or demographic composition, institutional structure or status of the territory occupied by Israel on 5 June 1967, including East Jerusalem, except as agreed by the parties through negotiations and to distinguish in their dealings with Israel between the territory of the State of Israel and the Palestinian territory occupied since 1967. The Court considers that the duty of distinguishing dealings with Israel between its own territory and the Occupied Palestinian Territory encompasses, inter alia, the obligation to abstain from treaty relations with Israel in all cases in which it purports to act on behalf of the Occupied Palestinian Territory or a part thereof on matters concerning the Occupied Palestinian Territory or a part of its territory; to abstain from entering into economic or trade dealings with Israel concerning the Occupied Palestinian Territory or parts thereof which may entrench its unlawful presence in the territory; to abstain, in the establishment and maintenance of diplomatic missions in Israel, from any recognition of its illegal presence in the Occupied Palestinian Territory; and to take steps to prevent trade or investment relations that assist in the maintenance of the illegal situation created by Israel in the Occupied Palestinian Territory

    Now the ICJ ruled on the obligation of states, but the underlying principle is clear. If the states are obliged "to prevent trade or investment relations that assist in the maintenance of the illegal situation created by Israel...", the trade itself is illegal.

  • I think Bin Zayed is starting to get cold feet that his people eventually could turn on him too. But the greed remains stronger as we see in continued dealings with Israel, the pillaging of Sudan, destabilizing Libya...

  • Zweifel.

    Meine arabische Frau wurde in der Nähe von Warnemünde am hellichten Tag von der örtlichen Dorfjugend belästigt und mit Flaschen beworfen. Dazu gab es einen Spruch in die Richtung "Wir könnten dich hier umbringen und die Polizei wird es nicht interessieren."

    Ein Schwarzer Freund, der in Greifswald studiert hatte, hat auch einige Scheiße dort erlebt und meinte, dass es sich nicht lohnt, zur Polizei zu gehen.

    Das war jeweils vor zwei und vor fünf Jahren. Ich fürchte eher, dass die Situation in MV inzwischen so übel ist, dass es trotz der durchsetzten Polizei so viele erfasste Gewalttaten gibt.

  • In fünf Jahren wird dann "Reiche" als Beleidigung verpönt sein und es wird Euphemismen wie "Maximalfinanzierte" oder "People of Cash" geben. Die einschlägigen Lobbygruppen werden Studien herausgeben, warum "sogenannte" Reiche diskriminiert werden, obwohl sie für ihr Erbe nichts können, und fordern, dass man diese als Kategorie für Intersektionalität bei Diskriminierungserfahrungen aufnimmt und als vulnerable Minderheit schützen müsse. Dagegen sollten sogenannte Arme nicht länger betrachtet werden. Die sind schließlich in der Mehrheit.

  • Accepting either presented level of shittiness is what got us here in the first place.

    Trump couldn't have done it without Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden or Kamala Harris. The House Reps would struggle more, if it wasn't for people like Schumer. If Democrats had called out AIPAC over the past twenty years instead of drooling over the opportunity to aid and abet war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide for them, we'd never had the whole "yeah i am voting for the slow genocide" argumentation being somehow "acceptable".

    And the most important thing is that the current Democrats are not going to be a driver for positive change. They are still fighting against moderate progressives like Mamdani and pushing for neoliberal reactionaries like Newsom instead.

  • It gets worse. Germany used to be producer of 50% of global solar cells. Around 2011 Germany slashed their subsidies around the same time China threatened tariffs on German car makers. There is reason to believe that Germany sacrificed its leading role in solar production in favor of a few more years of German cars being sold at record rates in China, only now to loose to Chinese producers, as the German car makers failed to keep up on EVs.

  • It is affected by how efficient your muscles are as you don't reach a 100% energy conversion. Given the typical representation of Super-Heroes as muscular, but usually not hippo-sized, their muscles being "super efficient" would be one way of explaining why they manage to get more strength out of less muscles.
