Im Vergleich zum Vorjahresquartal sinken die #CO2-Emissionen in China um knapp 5 Prozent. Und das trotz eines Wachstums der Stromnachfrage um 2,5 Prozent.
Der fast ausschließliche Ausbau mit erneuerbaren Energien macht sich nun in China bemerkbar.
Mit diesem Effizienzzuwachs setzt China einen wichtigen Meilenstein.

Chinas CO2-Emissionen sinken erstmals trotz wachsender Stromnachfrage - dank Wind, Sonne und Atomkraftwerken. Trotzdem ist fraglich, ob China die Pariser Klimaziele erreichen kann.Jan Schneider (ZDFheute)

Escaping US Tech Giants Leads European YouTuber to Open Source
The video (embedded below) by [TechAltar] is titled “1 Month without US tech giants“, but it could have been titled “1 Month with Open Source Tools” — because, as it turns out, once you get out of the ecosystem set up by the US tech giants, you’re into the world of open source software (OSS) whether you want to be or not.
From a (German-made) Tuxedo laptop running their own Linux distro to a Fairphone with e/OS (which is French), an open version of Android, [TechAlter] is very keen to point out whenever Europeans are involved, which is how we learned that KDE has a physical headquarters, and that it’s in Berlin. Who knew?
He also gives his experiences with NextCloud (also German), can be used as an OSS alternative Google Workspaces that we’ve written about before, but then admits that he was the sole user on his instance. To which one must question: if you’re the sole user, why do you need a cloud-based collaborative environment? To try it out before getting collaborators involved, presumably.
Regardless what you think of the politics motivating this video, it’s great to see open source getting greater traction. While [TechAltar] was looking for European alternatives, part of the glory of open source is that it doesn’t matter where you’re from, you can still contribute. (Unless you’re Russian.) Have you found yourself using more open source software (or hardware) of late? Do you think the current political climate could lead to a broadening of its reach? Is this the year of the linux desktop? Let us know what you think in the comments.

@albi insincerely yours Tak srovnávat dětské porno s našetřenými penězi a nákupem bytu jako investice(který není prázdný, to jsme si snad už vyjasnili, že to je naprostá ocasovina) je docela silné kafe.
A samozřejmě poskytovat službu, vydělávat na ní a platit daně je naprosto, ale naprosto v pořádku.
Abych se vrátil k meritu věci - neexistuje žádný úřad, který by mohl nějak kontrolovat, zda je byt obsazený nebo prázdný. Vedle byl byt oficiálně prázdný 8 let. Většinu času tam žili nájemníci, dokud si nezařídili vlastní bydlení, nebo se hned nevyplašili, když se dozvěděli, že majitel se schovává před věřiteli někde na Moravě. Celý soudní systém, celý bankovní systém, všechny vymahačské firmy, katastrální úřady, finanční úřady, .... to všechno by bylo nutné propojit, aby šlo zjistit, jestli je byt prázdný.
Takže to nejde, chlapci a děvčata. Zapomeňte konečně na to a řešte příčinu! Vyšší poptávka než je nabídka zvyšuje cenu. Elementární základy ekonomie. Platí to pro rohlíky úplně stejně jako pro byty.
monopoly nebo kartely umele zvysujou cenu, nasi operatori taky nedrzi ceny nahore (cirou nahodou na stejnych hladinach) kvuli poptavce
a srovnavani detskeho porna s kupovanim bytu je falesny argument, ja poukazoval na to, ze osobni vlastnictvi neni nedotknutelne ani ted a nikdy nebylo, to jenom establishment si historicky zakony poskladal k obrazu svemu a do dneska na nich lpime ze setrvacnosti
zakony jsou celospolecenske pravidla hry, takze pokud chceme zit v pravnim state, musime zaridit, aby tu hru chteli vsichni hrat
cikani (i ti bili) to vzdali, protoze podle nasich pravidel nemohli nikdy vyhrat
super-bohati se do basy dostanou jenom ve chvili, kdy by bylo spolecensky neunosne je tam neposlat (Rath, Janousek), jinak jsou zakony postavene pro ne tak, aby mohli zit beze strachu (nedotknutelnost nezastropovaneho majetku)
10 % nejbohatsich lidi na svete ma na svedomi 80 % skod zpusobenych ekologickymi katastrofami, ale nikdo z nich za to odpovednost nenese, ani financni ani jinou, ale kdyz "luza" vytvori malou nelegalni skladku u sebe za barakem nebo nestihne schuzku na pracaku, ktera je v jinem meste, tak je ohen na strese a je potreba je potrestat, aby "se pro priste poucili", prestoze zjevne nemaji prostredky na to se kazdy den cely den svobodne rozhodovat "spravne"
nase zakony objektivne nejsou fer ani temi danemi a povinnymi poplatky, na kterych chudy clovek na Sluknovsku zaplati pomerne k platu nasobne vic, nez pan velkopodnikatel z krajskeho mesta, natoz z Prahy
takze ne, platit dane, jak zakon kaze, neni ani nahodou dostacujici a fer
