@yogthos And then the upper stage blew up, creating a debris field of more than 700 objects that now threatens satellites in the same orbit:

China has a really bad track record with their stages. They have launch sites where they drop the first stages on land - sometimes hitting or almost hitting villages (which is really bad as many of these stages use toxic propellants). Their upper stages re-enter the atmosphere in an uncontrolled way (most other rocket launchers do this in a controlled way and let them re-enter at “Point Nemo”).

@davel @merde Europe has got several fusion test plants: euro-fusion.org/

@BlessedDog So, what should I ignore?

@IllNess @Grass My X230 is now more than 10 years old. At some point in time I will need to replace it. Then a Framework device would be the best choice - but only when they improve the keyboard or there are third party keyboards that better match my needs.

@IllNess @schizoidman I’m looking forward to alternate keyboards. When I tested a Framework device, I had the impression that the keyboard had been a linear one. I made the experience, that I need a tactile keyboard.

@cypherpunks I’ve got the feeling as if the author doesn’t know about the existence of relay servers. With them, also a single user instance works really fine, I think.

@helenslunch @pressurized Yeah, there had been no “Guardian Council” nor a “Supreme Leader” like in Iran. The political structure itself in the “Weimar Republic” had been democratic.

@Powderhorn In our company, we have theoretically had a “one day at home per week” rule for several months now. In practice, people usually work about 3 days a week at home. This is partly due to the fact that there is a works council agreement for some of my colleagues that is binding and can’t be overruled by management (thanks for German labor law!).

@interdimensionalmeme There are different opinions about this. And luckily people can chose networks according to their specific opinions.

@Microw @dumbass No. He wouldn’t be happy with ActivityPub as well. He imagines a social network where no one can perform any moderation. He favours Nostr for exactly that reason. Bluesky has got moderation (just like the Fediverse) - which he dislikes.
