RTFA!

It is harder to track your usage after you downloaded something. From your point of view there is not much of a difference. For you it is even more convenient. From their point of view they loose the ability to track - how often you streamed the file - at which times - from which device - with which software - (depending on your use of VPNs)= from where -... So, yes it is a big deal (in the truest sense of the word) for them. The business model you youtube is not to deliver content, it is advertising (okay, you blocked that one) and user data (hard to block as long as long as you play by their rules and don't download anything).

In this case the NFTs are not the actual problem, NFTs are a scam IMHO, don`t get me wrong. The real problem ist taking physical things from the wreck, that`s the grave robbing!

Are you aware of the fact, that there are countries were the FBI has no jurisdiction - like, oh, every country except the US.

Hm, a small group of people who allegedly had special knowledge and were treated badly by the majority ...

The German Chancellor is called Scholz without a "t". Your joke is rather old. It does not work in German. Neither does it in Russian. Global warming is not solved. The kids have every right to be scared. Ok Boomer!

Actually there are Discworld movies ...

Pumped-storage hydroelectricity works indeed as a storage for energy, but instead of diesel generators (CO2 emmissions) the use combined reversible turbine/generators. As far as I know they can be used all year round and are an ideal combination with Solar and wind energy because they can act as a buffer between changing demand e.g. day/night and varying output of Solar and Wind Energy.

Yes, redundancy is important. But as I just recently got to know, we export 25% of the energy we produce. On top of the redundancy. Even members of the conservatives want to shut down at least three of the seven plants permanently, so it seems pretty sure they will NOT come back online. Concerning the bloody gas, we import the majority from the Netherlands and Norway and while I wouldn't call Russia a perfect democracy it isn't the arch enemy it has been.

I agree with you, it is stupid to store the waste and it is even more stupid to produce it in the first place. Due to political pressure seven of the seventeen german nuclear plants are shut down. Within days! So there was no actual need for them. The percentage of use renewable energy has risen from 3,4 % in 1990 to 16,5 % in 2010, so I would not say that coal is our only option.

Oh only centuries! And you dare to call the parent ignorant. Even if the containment as such is safe for millenia, and thats a big if, there is still no guarantee that the political situation around that site stays stable, people still even know what is hidden in the deep.

As far as I know the several explosions were not part of the natural disaster but of the already failling reactors!

Does your statistic include the risks of atomic waste? Which will be with us for a LONG LONG time.

As one of these crazy stupid Germans I've got two words for you: atomic waste! Worldwide theres NO waste disposal site which can be guaranteed to be safe for next millenia.
