And you are stupid for not acknowledging that people from other countries are not just useless consumers without any agency. Americans and Europeans have industry too, and very productive ones. The narrative that you can trace any product back to China is entirely wrong and reeks of tankie.
Would not be so sure about that. Running is our specialty, especially with regard to endurance. A properly trained dog vs. a properly trained marathon runner would probably be an even match.
Had to experience that first hand. I tried to get my best friends to register on my Matrix server last September and join a room for our group, and they did, but I rarely see any of them online and I only get responses days later, if at all. One even stopped using it entirely, lol. Ah well, but at least I got a Matrix server out of that that I can use to federate with other like-minded people.
Die Kommentare beweisen mal wieder, dass Linkswähler keine Ahnung von Wirtschaft, Geopolitik, Sicherheit und Gerechtigkeit haben, und die Zukunft des Landes ideologisch verspielen würden, wenn sie könnten. Wenn ihr wirklich bedeutenden progressiven Wandel von echter Zukunftsfähigkeit herbei bringen wollt, ohne SPD zu wählen, dann wählt Grün. Linkspartei ist eine weggeworfene Stimme für eine Partei voll von Ex-SED-Funktionären, mit der sowieso niemals jemand koalieren wollen wird. Die Linkswähler sind leider der Grund dafür, warum wir bei dieser Bundestagswahl keine starke grüne Partei bekommen haben. Ähnlich wie die Drittparteienwähler in den USA.
Does "European-built" mean a strict "manufactured in the EU" or do European brands in general count? In the latter case, Philips would obviously come to mind, co-inventors of the CD. They made quite high-quality CD players as far as I know. But I don't know where they were produced.
Maybe they mean every single silicon component on all of the boards. I can imagine that cars need lots of diodes and discrete transistors and such. But computer-wise, thousands would really be excessive.
It just isn't possible, and we should want to dumb down the introduction too much. The Fediverse is not a centralised medium, and to participate in it, its users should understand that, analogous to how you would instruct people before using motor vehicles. Some things are just essential and need to be taught. Not teaching the stuff doesn't make it disappear. If some people cannot get behind the idea, then either find novel, intuitive ways of conveying it, or just accept that they cannot be a part of the Fediverse.
Many families in Germany face a precarious future, and your dismissal of the concerns of young people will definitely not make them more reasonable when it comes to the election. There are enormous financial challenges for a lot of Germans, and unlike in the U.S., White people are just as much affected as all the others.
No. Education will always remain the way out of poverty. And regardless, no "AI" can replace actual programmers at present. Their code and code quality are entirely unreliable and not suitable for serious, production use. They may be sufficient for hobbyist applications, but for software that is actually getting deployed, LLM outputs vary too widely, and you will always need experienced programmers to monitor them and correct errors. Also, an AI can not come up with a coherent design principle for you, the individual modules and moving parts it spits out will invariably fail to work together at scale. Creating software is much more than just churning out code. It requires advanced reasoning and specific knowledge, and AI is not there yet, and who knows if it ever will. All companies that are firing (or not hiring) programmers over current day LLMs are going to fail.
Well, you've got to climate-proof it. At least try to. Hydroponics, which, if done right, is both more space efficient, less susceptible to disease and environmental hindrances, and requires much less water. Solar power generation loves the sun and the cells will not really care how hot it is (in realistic environments), they will only get more efficient. Go subterranean to a degree, and have your architecture style be inspired by things like Earthships.
Freshwater can be gotten from wells, rain traps or dehumidifiers. If you want animals, you will have to hold them in buildings similar to your own dwelling.
Keep in mind that this advice is for if you expect it to get hot in your area. However, parts of Europe will tend to get colder due to climate change, at least at certain times of the year.
