csv is a pretty good data sharing format, but not very well suited for spreadsheets. Just because you can shove anything you want in there doesn’t mean you should.

The last ~40% is hydro and nuclear?

I don’t believe that China makes these investments just because the energy is cheaper nor that Europe does it from the goodness of their hearts. Both parties are well aware that the long-term effects of climate change will be devastating to the lives of their population and economy among other things. It comes down to a balancing act between preventing long-term damage and stimulating short-term growth.

Another positive perspective: it might take a long time but it’s possible to do it! It doesn’t have to lead to permanent scars.

I guess their own slop isn’t good enough as a communication platform

Wanted to test PieFed, mashed the keyboard for a bit. Turns out, PieFed is quite nice, maybe I should make another account with a proper username

Add more requirements to the contract that make these kinds of practices impossible/harder to pull off

What is nodeBB? A lemmy or piefed alternative or a whole different thing altogether?

As far as I know, there is no mechanism for suspension

There’s plenty of perfectly fine distributions out there. Mint is an easy choice, easy to get started with, big community that probably already has answered the questions you might have and otherwise you can ask them. Many more gaming focused people use Bazzite, not sure what it offers on top of a basic, well working environment.

The Nvidea graphics card could cause issues since drivers tend to not be supported well. Again, you’re most likely to find help for the bigger distros such as Mint and Bazzite.

Regardless of which distro you choose, just try it and see how it goes. Dual boot can be a nice starting point (but make sure you get the partitioning right before installing anything!).

So for a change a company is cleaning up after itself? That’s nice! (Not sure what’s up with the endless reminders that it’s not sharks)

I read that as a very polite ‘Fuck you, come apologize now!’

Absolutely. Typically, the bigger the branding the more you pay for that and the less bang for buck you get. In second hand shopping I do often look at the brands though, because branded things are often better than no name items, but at the same price in that market (e.g. in kilo sales)

You mean wear something generic, unidentifiable and add some body armor?

Yep, that’s the direction I was thinking. The whole point of these cameras is to track people, including you, meaning that they can track everyone in the area before and after a camera is destroyed. It seems to me that the logical time to destroy a camera is when few other people are arround to stop/witness someone destroying a camera, but that also means there are few people to track and therefore it’s easier to single out whoever did it.

How would you take such a camera down without being spotted and tracked? Do they not look in all directions?

Not asking for all the technical details on how to take one down, just curious how so many can be taken down with so few arrests after. I guess it’s a matter of good disguises?

Apparently the threats are still sufficiently strong that the author dares not mention the company’s name :/

Do I understand it right that when it comes down to it, this is a different implementation of the same thing (rendering)? I assume that this is mostly relevant for software engineers and that the end user only notices some differences in speed, if at all?

Very true about the Wayland vs X11 knowledge. I didn’t learn about that until quite a while after startint to use Mint. Even know I don’t really umderstand what it does (something rendering and windows?), it doesn’t seem to make much of a difference in day to day use anyways.

In a way I’m glad that at first the words matched the deeds even though they’re backpedalling now. Many people needed to hear those words to understand what it’s really like.
