Germany net exported 32 TWh of electicity in 2019. It does not depend on nuclear power from France or Sweden

Oh, it does. Because there's no way to store any meaningful amount of electricity it very much depends on its neighbours to balance its electricity grids against the spikes produced by the wind and solar installations. And if in the end it produces more annually than it consumes does not change that.

The problem here is THEY ARE. Four cops lost their jobs here and they all are likely facing charges

Well, if some regular guys kill someone while being recorded on video what you will hear is not that "they lost their jobs" or that "they are likely to face charges" but that they are arrested.

And cops are not regular guys but people who have been bestowed great powers by people - and (do I really have to quote the Peter Parker principle here?) with great power comes great responsibility.

Can they be any more obvious they're mimicking MacBook Pro name?

Except they don't. The Plus refers to a second touchscreen on the top of the laptop.
Lenovo's equivalent of "Macbook Pro" is "Thinkpad".

Oh, and the TP Plus comes with a 10th gen CPU while the MBP still comes with 8th gen CPUs for that price.

Polish officials complain that a documentary is spreading inflammatory falsehoods

No, it wasn't, actually the map was correct.
The thing is that right-wing Polish politicians try to remove all blame regarding the holocaust from anyone Polish: "look, it was all done by the evil Germans, no, no Polish man ever took part in it, ever, that's a lie". If anything, that is an inflammatory falsehood.

There is nothing wrong with systemd.

Then please shed some light on why systemd's network renaming is a good thing.

On a system with a single network interface why is it better to have an essentially random interface name (that may even change e.g. when you replace your ethernet card) than the absolutely dependable eth0?

On a system with multiple network interfaces why is it better to have essentially random interface names than the basically also random ethX names that you WILL rename anyway?
