> You should stop relying on such low-resolution thinking when discussing a complex issue like German energy policy.
It is funny that you are criticizing my ability to reason when you are not even able to (in two comments now) even address the (as explicitly stated in my personal reply to you) single point I was making.
> This happened only because public opinion had been shaped by the movements mentioned in my previous comment for the last 40 to 50 years.
Are you implying that 1986 was a Russian propaganda plot? What/who do you mean with "movements"?
Note that I won't even write answers to all the other commenters telling me that nuclear power plants are great (they are not). I will answer you because my reply was about your comment on Russian propaganda:
1. Angela Merkel and her conservative/center coalition shut down the NPPs as a direct response to the Fukushima disaster. The NPPs in Germany were never really important (something like 10% of electricity IIRC).
2. No one in Germany even knew about fracking until we learned that communities in the US now had poisoned ground water because of it. The whole thing was instantly dead forever in Germany. Yes of course the same idiots who want NPPs back also say we should do fracking, but I don't think any of that will ever happen.
So I did not want to discuss whether these decisions were wrong or not, just wanted to point out that making Russian propaganda the reason for this is a far stretch.
Regarding your point about German/European money paying for Russian bombs: You are absolutely right and it is shameful. We should have pulled the plug on Russia 2014. Do note though that Germany had Russian fossils since like the 70`s as part of ensuring peace and transformation through trade, which yes - did not work out so well in the end.
It was always crazy to me that computers were locked down. I almost understand Karen buying an iPhone not coding her own apps, but a dev not able to deploy on their own device just felt so wrong. It made me wonder how Apple was still so popular and seemingly beloved.
In my experience that sentence never made much sense anyway. Of course over the ~25 years of Linux I had to setup/learn a lot of stuff, but usually it ended up being time well invested.
I also have an X13 Gen2 AMD. My idle power consumption is 2.5W to 4W depending on brightness. This ends up in 12h-15h (machine/battery ist 2y old I think).
I heart that at least in the US losing access to Facetime would be a serious loss in social status. So then this would be a real hurdle WRT user choice.
How deep did you look into it? Don't be misled by maybe your manufacturer not supporting Linux directly. As an example https://github.com/berarma/oversteer helped me to set up my wheel better than any rubbish windows OEM software could have.
I am well over 40 and when you don't schedule a call I wont pick up the call. Maybe I will call you back 20 mins later just to - passive aggressively - teach you that being called is annoying ...
I use gaps in sway. My windows have margins anyway because I use a border to indicate the active window and the border uses that margin. Fortunately sway has a built-in setting be space saving eg. in single window cases (where I know the window had focus always).
I set this up many years ago and never changed it.
I mean there are different definitions on what to call an AGI. Most of the time people don't specify which one they use.
For me an AGI would mean truly at least human level as in "this clearly has a consciousness paired with knowledge", a.k.a. a person. In that case, what do the investors expect? Some sort of slave market of virtual people to exploit?
