Shipwreck beach. I knew it looked familiar.

Misleading thumbnail, looks like a Greek island. Where does this come from?

Someone should clarify if this

• leaks only the cc number (as shown here)
• or otherises a payment

Contactless payments use the EMV protocol. Leaking the cc number is bad, but happens all the time. An actual payment athorisation replaces both PIN and signature. The victim’s bank will argue that the victim authorised the transaction at the POS.

Sorry, eh.

And her biggest fuck-up was… attending a party?!?

Exactly

Scholz is right that nuclear is dead in German. Nuclear is always political and there’s no stable political majority pro nuclear. This has nothing to do with the technology. It just won’t happen.

Most entreprises, energy or else, are privately run and financed. Capitalism. Nuclear is private on paper, but no one is going to build reactors without governent support. Many industries are regulated, like banking, but they are still driven by profit motives, private interest. At least in Germany, there’s no entrepreneurial mindset behind nuclear. Rent seeking business people and lobbyists, sure. But not risk takers. The businesses lobbying pro nuclear are lead by ex-politicians and similar types who secretly want a safe government job.

Nuclear is dead and it’s not the biggest problem. The much bigger elephant in the room is that we mostly talk about renewables. Sure, renewals grow, but nowhere near the rate needed. Everyone can see this, the data is available, and we just don’t give a shit.

And don’t get me started on hydrogen. Doesn’t make sense to even consider hydrogen unless you have a huge surplus on (preferably renewable) energy.

I don’t get this argument. Most business don’t own any property. The office buildings are rented.

Most bosses aren’t billionaires, though.

This will work perfectly for OP

Just need another sun on the opposite side

Yes, same here.

Not a big difference since you were planning to be locked in underwater anyway

The only open question is, whether at least one of the popular apps will transition Lemmy. This should doable since the concept is so similar.

The world needs good Fediverse apps. If they include mastodon, we can say good bye to Musk’s twitter as well.
