Every commercial fuel recycling plant in existence releases large amounts of radioactivity into the air and water, so I dont really see them as a good alternative.

Here is a world map of iodine 129 before fukushima, its one of many radioactive isotopes released at nuclear reprocessing plants: https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/images/iupac/j_pac-2015-0703_fig_076.jpg The website where I got it from: https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/element/Iodine#section=Isotopes-in-Forensic-Science-and-Anthropology

Considering how long it would take to build safe reactors, how expensive it would be and how much radioactive contamination would be created both at the production of fuel and later when the storage ever goes wrong after thousands of years, I just dont see any reason to ever invest into it nowadays, when renewables and batteries have gotten so good.

They also allow you to plug in a grounded Schuko Plug (Its the german one) without connecting the earth, cant get much more dangerous than that. I think the french plug also can be plugged in but it doesnt connect the earth either.

I know, but thats still much better than it was before and I think we will slowly move towards full legalisation.

But seeds were actually always legal, you just werent allowed to plant them.

What is also good is that weed is no longer classified as a narcotic (Betäubungsmittel), so it can be prescribed like any other medicine. While medicinal Cannabis was legal before, the hurdles to get it were way too high.

Wenn du mit schnelleren mithalten musst, ist es natürlich doof. Wenn man den ganzen Tag dafür Zeit hat, sollte das eigentlich möglich sein (solange die 18% nicht die ganze Zeit sind).

Wenn man deutlich mehr als seine “Wohlfühlleistung” treten muss, ist man natürlich schnell schlapp.

Trotzdem muss ich Hut ab sagen, bin dieses Jahr auch nur einmal bisher 100km gefahren (allerdings größtenteils flach).

Well, its legal now in Germany

Have you ever tried just pulling it back a little bit before you pee?

Thats what I do when its cold outside and I want to pee, but not on me.

I have 10kwh of storage, which helps a lot, and it wasnt that expensive, especially compared to a few years ago.

Now that sodium ion batteries are actually starting to become available we will see them taking over stationary storage, but for now LiFePo4 works pretty good.

I have (had) a few friends who communicate like this and its just annoying and exhausting. I am never planning anything again with them involved because they cannot state if they actually will or want to come.

Thats a little bit less than my solar house install has produced in the last year, and it was only up for half of it.

Just imagine how much fossil fuels we could save if everyone had solar on their roofs and if wind power would be more widespread as well.

Ich kann mir echt nicht erklären, wie Google das nicht schafft ne vernünftige WLAN Verbindung herzustellen, außer dass die Access Points bloß nicht sichtbar sein sollen oder die Decke 50m hoch ist und nur oben welche dran sein dürfen.

Eigentlich ist das wirklich nicht schwer, mit bisschen Geld und Erfahrung überall paar Access Points zu verteilen.

Ist natürlich immer die Frage, was mit dem PC gemacht wird, der Unterschied zwischen schnellem und langsamen RAM ist in der Praxis meistens so gut wie nicht bemerkbar.

Im Desktop Bereich hat so gut wie kein Motherboard und CPU mehr als 2 RAM Channel, das ist eher was für den Serverbereich, Ausnahmen sind Treadripper und andere Serverähnliche CPUs

But will there still be air coming through when there is wind pushing on that side of the house?

I guess they are kind of complicated, but energy efficient windows make it possible to increase the window area and size without losing too much heat. Energy is also more expensive over here, which probably helps in that decision, as the cost of these windows can be easily recouped in a few years just by needing less energy to heat the house.

And how is it sealed on the sides and the top? European casement windows actually get pulled into the frame (and seals) all around the frame by rollers which move sideways along sloped ridges when you move the hinge to the closed position.

Because its not possible to pull the window into the seal when the window also needs to move up and down.

I would say risk taking isnt always bad and not always illogical. But yeah, as a man I know what you mean when you talk about testosterone and risk taking.

I imagine it used to have quite a lot of benefits back when we were still sleeping in caves, shure you might die when facing a mammoth, but you could also feed the whole tribe for weeks when you succeed.

And they also shouldnt require specific browsers and a CPU that is less than 2 years old to stream content in resolutions above 720p.

Its not because its not possible, its because it lacks some bullshit copyright protection.

Ich find Merz ansonsten absolut nicht toll, sein Privatflugzeug kann ich aber verstehen. Verbraucht nicht so viel (und er fliegt das auch selber?) und ist auch nicht übertrieben groß.

I think you forgot the part where capitalism makes peoples life worse and worse, while at the same time conservative media blames the left for it, even if they are the cause.

Because in the End people dont vote for fascists because its funny, but because they believe they can get them out of a shitty situation (Fascism doesnt do that obviously, but people get blinded by propaganda).

We wouldnt have this issue today if politicians werent all neoliberal and actually cared about poor people.

That window design looks like it would never seal properly. Here in Germany any window from the last 30 years or more will not let any air in when its fully closed.
