Which text to speech platform do you use? Sound really good

You should calculate the costs for the car. Insurance+tax alone might be above 49€/month.

If you would get rid of it for 9€/month you should also do it for 49€/month.

This ticket is basically a big (!) raise for anyone using public transport. My wife will save 150€/month and can travel everywhere instead of a 50km single route

Average EU household spending in transportation is around 13% of income.

Even at only 1000€/month this ticket is only 5%.

We germans love to criticize even huge improvements, don‘t we? 49€ is dead cheap for that ticket.

Please reread my comments

That was my argument from the very beginning, you are doing a lot of interpretation and talk about lies and dishonesty, which is frankly typical German Energiewende talk that led us into this disaster.

Citation?

You should be more specifix. France is the biggest electricuty exporter of the last decades. They also heat with electricity, not gas. Their Co2 emissions are a fraction of German emissions. What‘s so great about German electricity?

You are dishonest here. It‘s without a question that we would need far less coal if we still had our remaining 6 nuclear power plants running. We could be pretty much out of coal by now if we would have phased out of coal before nuclear.

This is not about amortization but about low-emission capacity

Works really good for France and Sweden.

Yeah that‘s because there is a policy not to build one until after exiting nuclear power. Finland did it within a few years. Germany has a very good geology for nuclear waste.

It matters because within a year 20 years of solar power build-up were nullified in terms of low emission capacity

„Um die akute Gaskrise im vergangenen Sommer zu bekämpfen, sind insgesamt 14 Steinkohle-Kraftwerke und ein Mineralöl-Kraftwerk wieder reaktiviert oder entgegen ursprünglicher Pläne nicht stillgelegt worden. Das geht aus einer Übersicht der Bundesnetzagentur hervor. Alle betroffenen Kraftwerke sind nach wie vor am Markt“

With 6 nuclear power plants that could be a lot less

It‘s rather easy to build cooling towers, so only a small problem.

Not a single german nuclear plant was powered down to heat or low water.

I grew up very close to a coal power plant. Guess what, that is many times more dangerous than storing nuclear waste. I don‘t think I have ever heard anyone say they would rather live close to a coal plant.

Why is it a mistake or dishonest? That is the reality: Germany already powered many coal plants back up to replace gas and nuclear. Now it will take even longer to get rid of coal.

1) they are some of the most modern plants on this planet, upgraded very regualary

2)The companies do want to run them, just bot under the imposed conditions and constant exit threat. Preussen Elektra lobbied to keep them running constantly

3)They provided vastly more in the past but got axed piece by piece

4) around 80% currently want to keep them running, especially younger people

5) in other news, no one wants climate change. And no garden was requested as waste storage yet.

In 2021 the remaining (!) 6 power plants produced more electricity than all installed solar capacity.

The nuclear waste storage is not solved because it is a policy not to solve it.

On all metrics coal is more damaging and dangerous than nuclear.

As a German you get accustomed to carzy fear-led policies like these.

FYI our „experts“ and think-tanks (DIW, Agora Energiewende, Öko-Ibstitut) are sure renewables are basically free and nuclear is blocking the RE build-up. Plus, nuclear is so dangerous and produces so much waste, it is a non-starter. The only thing they hate more than Co2 is nuclear power, thus we keep runnung brown coal power plants at 1kg/Co2 per kwh.

Thanks I guess.

It‘s basically fear. The Green Party was founded with the mission to stop nuclear power in Germany. The media repeated their talking points for years and years. It sounds so good and we have dozens of „experts“ who tell us how expensive and dangerous nuclear power is.

Impressive. Thanks for sharing

You can use Langchain / Plugins to get around that issue

The government checks or disallows many things, i.e. drugs.

Individualism is strong in the US, but if parents sucks kids suffer.

Eagerly waiting for a git Plugin that does smart on-the-fly contextualization of a whole codebase

I'd be okay with that too, but homo sapiens sapiens will be very unhappy quickly. We are not made to sit around and BBQ all day.

Money is accrued labor. May it be in the form of money, machines or software. Money is the way to efficiently distribute it. Every purchase you make is a vote for a service or product. It's the most efficient form of democracy. It just sucks because it's scarce and not distributed fairly.

Reading comments here: has anyone got access yet?

That's an optimistic view and I'd be happy if it came to fruition.

I'm not sure modern cities work for that though.

It is pure guessing at this point.

I think you are disregarding hundreds of years of progress in pretty much any area.

It was usual to kill natives to take their land.

It was usual to own slaves.

Worker rights have not existed in any form until somewhat recently.

Schools are available.

Violence has declined constantly.

We take the environmental protection much more serious now than 50 years ago (you could argue it's not enough, I'm talking about progress)
