US - Spain war when lol?

Just saw this german satire article and it was the perfect fit.

The title translates to: “Mysterious: Prices for wind and solar stable despite Iran war”

The rest of the article as translated by firefox:

With the Iran war, heating oil, gas and gasoline prices are rising in this country. On the other hand, the situation is different in terms of wind and solar: so far, despite the bitter conflict in the sunny and wind-rich Middle East, prices have remained remarkably stable here.

“We cannot yet say exactly why this is,” explains energy expert Ottfried Müller. “Although the road is blocked by Hormuz and deliveries from the Middle East are currently difficult, somehow the wind and the sun still seem to reach Germany.”

Despite the conflict, photovoltaic systems, solar panels and wind turbines continue unabated, while the price of petrol at the petrol stations has already climbed to over 2 euros locally.

“Perhaps the federal government has succeeded in opening up new wind and solar suppliers in record time?” Müller suspects cautiously. “Or has Economy Minister Reiche created a strategic reserve of sun and wind in solar and wind storage facilities, which makes us independent for the first time?”

Nevertheless, experts urge caution: At the moment, it cannot be completely ruled out that Donald Trump next gives the order to attack the sun.

Wow such insight, never would have guessed. Thanks headline.

This is how i find out that they broke Apex on linux. Used to run just fine.

Another reason to pile onto the huge pile of reasons to phase out fossil fuels. They are just too volatile and unstable. If you depend on them you need a constant uninterrupted flow of them or you are completely fucked.

Sure solar and wind and such have their own supply chain risks, but even if China gets mad, the infrastructure we already built will keep running for many years before needing replacement. It completely removes the risk of short term existential threat political tactics.

FYI Qatar is fucking tiny, its basically just one big city with a bunch of desert next to it. There arent necessarily duplicates for this kind of infrastructure.

Also this interpretations is just wrong.

Jacob is right that AI is changing the way that normal software development work gets done. It’s a new capability that has proven itself to be so useful that it clearly isn’t going away. Yes, it represents a significant shift in how we build software, it moves us further away from how the underlying stuff actually works, but the benefits exceed the risks.

The benefits most certainly do not outweigh the “risks”, because they are in fact not at all risks, but an actively happening disaster of environmental, social and cognitive nature.

Also the entire argument of “when you go deep enough nobody actually fully understands anything” is stupid. The people that actually understand the deepest are the people that are creating all our cutting edge technology. Modern processors wouldnt exist without people trying to go as deep as possible.

Surprised he wasnt shot by police. Mentally unstable + police usually ends badly in the US.

They also had to correct their results last month for some reason. I think they are just having issues with their surveys rn. Also there were multiple 30+ minute steam network outages in Europe in the past few days. Europe is definitely the majority of linux steam users so that might be related.

I know you are looking into editing the files, but you can probably also do this with live filters with something like easyeffects.

If the mod code itself is open, i dont see why not. There are lots of open source projects that are used in conjunction with closed source stuff, like custom wrappers or security research tools.

Its more like a few thousand devices, not 30-40 but ye.

WAAT DA FAQUE?

pretty reasonable reaction if you ask me

I doubt that Anthropic actually cares, they just dont want the bad PR. If the feds had asked quietly in a way that doesnt leave public traces, im sure they probably would have complied.

Just a lil vacation trip :3

I mean not any more of a dipshit then he was before. I really dont prefer one of the two, both are shitty countries to go to war for.

Its not a “nazi problem” if its 99% of the party. Its just a nazi party at that point and they dont see it as a problem.

That works too of course :) Welcome to the world of linux!

To enable flatpak in Discover go to its settings page and at the bottom click “install flatpak backend” or something like that. Then when thats done you need to enable “flathub” on the same page as the package source for flatpak. You might have to restart in between or after these steps if it doesnt show up.

Only “flatpak” though, not “snap” because that sucks.
