And the amount of undiagnosed adults is missing. There are very little reasons why ADHD would just disappear when growing up. People simply suppress their emotions.

boredsquirrel OP ,

Europe without the part of russia that lies on the continent.

But true, Russia at the equator looks like this:

That was already a sharper version I could find, and I edited it to increase readability via sharpening and decreasing grain

How do you envision Solarpunk Music?

Am curious if Solarpunk music is a thing or not yet? If it is please do share some links to tracks to check out, am very cruious. If it isnt a thing yet, what type of music do you imagined it would be like? I found this on the Tubes, which is very relaxing, ambiance type of music. This is personally the type of music I have in...

Basically Goa/Psytrance with nature sounds

boredsquirrel OP ,

There is a minimum amount which is likely the least some people spent on their health. So there is no interpolation I can see.

boredsquirrel OP ,

Yes this is a huge problem. Keeping people healthy instead of mitigating the obvious consequences of their unhealthy life

boredsquirrel OP ,

Actually Australia is pretty high up. High radiation (i.e. skin cancer), I dont expect a way better diet than in the US.

boredsquirrel OP ,

Hell no where did you get that from?

boredsquirrel OP ,

This differentiation between weird license fees and safety regulations makes sense.

But the privatised hospitals etc is extremely problematic, as they underpay their stuff regularily, causing extreme situations.

I guess that a free market has advantages over slow and established monopoles. But the companies will still exploit as much as possible, if not every single thing is regulated.

Example environment and labor laws. If you have exact laws for every known process, they will try to find loopholes to be cheaper, because there is only profit, no moral.

boredsquirrel OP , (edited )

This is big scale capitalism, not free market.

Capitalism is the key problem.

A free market is probably necessary. With a system where everyone has enough to live well, affordable healthcare, equal treatment etc.

A free market ensures a lot of quality standards.

But it is not only competition, improvements and "getting the best, the best way".

It is "making & selling something that people buy, the cheap way". This principle is fundamentally flawed, as environmental protection doesnt pay, and there is no real reason for companies to be good for the enviroment. Like, actually being good.

You can also argue that products enshittified over time (glued together laptops, unnecessarily weak drinking glasses, "IOT-ifying" everything, cheap clothes, throwaway razors, cheap food,...) because there is no value in making good products in a free market, if people get f**ing brainwashed and dont buy stuff based on their value over time.

And equally it is even worse with the environment. As there is no value in protecting the environment, nobody does it. Now laws force companies to list all important data, and this gets converted into some indirect form of money. But not nearly as transparently and freely as a free market. You may get fees or not, you may save some "carbon credits" but these are horrendously underpriced and can be bought with neocolonial freakshows like forcing people out of their own land, to "protect it", as if it would have been destroyed before.

And the main flaw is that there is no big reason to not fake these values. Or not just write down what you already do, and keep it at this. Or do more than needed.

And to the topic, a free market has no stop sign. Companies naturally grow bigger and bigger, get more and more efficient, critical for whole societies that rely on working for them, and thus they are inherently not "neutral possibilities in a free world".

This always leads to huge mega-giants having influence on people, politics etc.

And this leads us to the situation we are currently in. Companies abusing license and patent laws, to cripple the system that even made them possible.

I have no idea why the US is so f**cked up in this graph, but believe me Germany is also horrible.

Trickle down economics does work in a way that ensures basic healthcare for all germans. But meanwhile these damn germans produce a SH**LOAD of stuff.

I have no numbers but it is insane how much utter garbage we produce. And from this endless, insane stream of trash, we always scoop off enough profit to make the 1% even more ugly rich, and keep the said basic human rights intact.

This may work, but it is soooo far from sufficiency.

I really liked the latest video of "Second Thought", about the american dream and capitalisms natural path to fascism

Decision of Next Os

I was Nobara user, then I am using Fedora right now. I want to use things like Hyprland etc. and ya know, Its damn cool to say I am using arch btw. So I've decided to use Arch Linux. But everyone says its always breaking and gives problems. That's because of users, not OS.. right? I love to deal with problems but I don't want to...

boredsquirrel ,

In Germany they have

  • AfD
  • Bündnis Sarah Wagenknecht
  • Mera25

Stupidly defending Russia

boredsquirrel ,

I have no idea why your comment is downvoted.

boredsquirrel ,

And what to do if everybody wants not apples but meat, produced in other countries and nobody wanting to process it in the own country? This is literally happening in Germany currently, at least there is something to stop that insanity.

boredsquirrel ,

It is a more complex "need", there is a supply chain, and the "need" is destroying the planet.

The people producing it may not be able to do something else, etc.

boredsquirrel ,

I am sorry but this form of religion is so postfactical it hurts.

Especially it being respected today. Guys! We are not in the middle ages anymore!

Eating bugs is good for the climate... at least as a vegan that doesnt really matter.

boredsquirrel OP ,

This is also about the App ID, actually mainly. So they keep K9 so that users can get a popup "export your settings, uninstall and install TB Android". As Android only allows updates with the same app ID and developer key.

boredsquirrel ,

Network Location is critical infrastructure.

Europe has to take Mozillas Database and make a free and GDPR compliant service.

boredsquirrel ,

Yeah but those are not solutions but small plasters that you can do AND continue to go on like before.

Well now we are at a point where we have to stop 100% AND need carbon capture for the remaining 5GT or so CO2eq that we still emit

boredsquirrel ,

It is too slow, takes too much space and may burn down. But for sure, removing damn streets and planting trees is a solution, but it is too slow

boredsquirrel ,

Works very well. Only issue is missing ported extensions and the cursors lol.

For some reason all cursors made for plasma 5 are blurry, so the existing "breeze plasma 5 cursors" dont work that well.

And I miss "minimal desktop switcher" as the Plasma 6 alternative just makes Plasma desktop crash for some reason.

boredsquirrel ,

So now we have Lapce, Cosmic-Edit, Helix (vim clone) and Zed, all in Rust. Nice!

boredsquirrel ,

What is a good intro for people with only minor Python experience? 😅

boredsquirrel ,

I know, I really want to start contributing to FOSS projects with Code, especially to COSMIC as I think their base is supercool, but the GNOME-like layout sucks a lot. So this would for sure involve first learning all the basics, then iced, then their stuff.

boredsquirrel ,

Pretty outdated. /run/media is used by udisksctl to mount stuff that the user actually has access to.
