Video: Lkw schiebt Klimaaktivisten der "Letzten Generation" in Stralsund vor sich her

Reply in thread

Aber wem soll man denn sonst auf die Nerven gehen? Es werden regelmäßig Pipelines abgedreht, Regierungsgebäude blockiert, etc. Leider berichten dann die Medien kaum und der Protest ist noch unwirksamer. Diese Möglichkeit wurde ja ausgeschöpft, bevor man sich entscheiden musste, die Zivilbevölkerung mit einzubeziehen.

Die letzte Generation tut das nicht, weil sie es witzig finden, den Verkehr zu blockieren. Sie tun das, weil ihnen nichts anderes übrig bleibt und die Zeit nunmal abläuft.

Und glaub mir, dass da so'n oller LKW nicht fahren kann, ist vollkommen zu vernachlässigen, wenn uns das vor den Wasserkriegen 2050 bewahrt.

What's the possibility of capitalists pushing for nightshifts because of the heat?

Well, they are discussing a "Siesta" in Germany right now, where workers need to take a mandatory, long, unpaid break in the middle of the day, because it's too hot to work: https://lemmy.world/post/1706963 (in german)

I hate that so much. I want less time for work and more time for life.

Imagine having to spend your free time during the heat, so that you can work when it's cold. You are losing your free time twice! You can't even spend it. If it's too hot for work, it's too hot for free time.

Elon Musk doesn't have a natural feel for empathy or emotions, says his biographer who's followed him for three years.

One really contradicts the other.

A person can only generate so much money by not caring about other people. If they cared about other people, they would spend their money to improve something instead of hoarding it for themselves or distribute it evenly between themselves and those they exploit.

An empathetic person would know that they have no right to have that much money.

They would be able to see that they were lucky in an exploitive system and they would understand that their work is not worth more than the work of other people.

You can't be rich and be a good person at the same time, because money is generated by exploiting labor and you can only generate more money by exploiting more work.

In the very end this money belongs to the people who carried Elon Musk through his life. He did not invent those rockets. He did not program those cars. He did not dig the lithium for the batteries under extremely dangerous conditions out of the ground while being paid peanuts. What he contributed to his wealth is the willingness to exploit other people.

Eine Platten selber flicken

Klar, das geht schnell und einfach selbst, aber ich denke, dass viele Menschen sich einfach nicht die Hände schmutzig machen wollen und daher lieber zur Werkstatt gehen.

Dort kann man sich auch sicher sein, dass es professionell und korrekt erledigt wird. Kostet ja auch meistens nicht mehr als 20€.

Amtsärzte fordern Sommer-Siesta in Deutschland

Wenn es so heiß ist, dass ich da nicht arbeiten kann, wieso sollte ich dann da Freizeit wollen, damit ich dann später arbeiten kann? Alles was ich hier sehe ist, dass mir Freizeit verloren geht, während die Arbeit und der Kapitalismus doch überhaupt erst schuld sind an der Hitze.

Find ich ja ekelhaft.

Amazon owns .book and .read since 2015 yet still do not allow registrations for these domains.

It's a pretty new thing. In recent years many new TLDs have been added.

See here for a full list currently supported on the open web: https://data.iana.org/TLD/tlds-alpha-by-domain.txt

Companies are now allowed to add TLDs to this, if they can provide a reason and the infrastructure needed to make them usable.

Amazon owning those TLDs and not allowing registration for it is not okay in my opinion. The words "book" and "read" are not exclusively used by Amazon.

Here is some insight into the process: https://www.icann.org/en/topics/new-gtlds/draft-rfp-clean-12nov10-en.pdf

Do you feel performance is good while using Linux to game? How is it compared to windows?

I would love to switch, the only two things keeping me away is potential performance decrease and the fact that my GoXLR doesn't work with Linux and it was way too expensive for that.
