You mean, like the hidroelectrics we have here in Brazil?

No fan? Which motherboard?

You mean, like airbnb and github?

Germany raised a lot of laws to ban coal and closed all nuclear plants (Merkel said she feared episodes like Fukushima, while Fukushima produced ZERO deaths). Now, 2021, Germany is no more capable of produce it's own energy, and they have to import gas from Russia. But Russia is not capable of attend all the European demand, the prices are hitting records and now Germany is activating their coal plants again, fearing electricity shortage.

This is only the third in a row. Can we have more?

What made national news during the Super Bowl was the fact that the state was snowed under. That's what a lot of people were expecting with the last winter storm because they've never experienced blackouts from winter weather.

Storms during hail and hurricane season tend to cause much more predictable carnage.

A winter day in West Texas is a lot like a balmy summer day in Denmark looking out onto the North Sea.

Someone remember the Windows XP Starter Edition with similar limitations? It failed, because schools were installing Linux on those weak PCs, and people who bought one of these on stores just wiped and installed a pirate version over it.

You're mixing bad politics with capitalism. You can have capitalism with the government punishing bad companies, monopolies, etc. In communism, you don't even have a chance to buy something from a company, or even a chance to buy something.

Yeap, all the EU is suffering truckers shortage... but:

Brexiters: we don't like you immigrants, but you can fill this queue of paper and enter for few months, while there is this shortage, receiving lower salaries then EU.

Brexiters too: worst shortage here than in EU it's not related to Brexit.

Facebook does the opposite of Slashdot moderation. They promote the trolls ensuring that signal is lost in the noise. They aren't a passive part of the problem. They actively contribute to it.

The whole point of running monopoly ware is the idea that it supports everything. Get rid of that and you might as well buy a Mac or run Linux.

Doesn't matter what the Lemming excuses are.

The platform that is supposed to "support everything" is trying to treat you like a Linux user.

The idea that not being able to censor my speech is compelling speech from a platform owner is Orwell on steroids.

Punishing someone for violating government approved group think is across the line even for someone that identifies as a publisher NOT protected by Section 230.

Let's pretend that Stallman never alerted about those scenarios.
