Schneemensch

They stated that the new mater lies would not live up to their requirements on longlivity and quality. Abs which is currently used is quite stable and can and is therefore be used for generations.

The new materials would lead to faded and broken Lego bits after some years and degrade the brand perception. Since new stuff would need to be bought then this would be less CO2 efficient.

For other PET products we usually do not have any longlivity requirements. Plastic bottles barely need to survive for a year and therefore the recycling process is still much better than producing new plastic.

In short: It is better to produce 1kg of CO2 once every 30 years than 0.2kg of CO2 every 5 years.

I am sure there is still some typical greenwashing in the calculations, but it makes sense to me that they do not want to reduce their quality standards.

I am 30 years old and I have a switch and a Xbox Series X.

I use both, depending on the game I am currently playing. The Zelda gaes on the switch have been awesome and some of the Mario games as well.

The Xbox can deliver better graphics and with this more demanding games, but I cannot play them on the train or on vacation and that are actually the most times where I find time to play.

If I am at home with time to play I am still on the PC playing with friends.

For the price the Switch has definitely given me more value than the Xbox, even though I do like the Xbox.

Du fragst ob wir "echt noch" Probleme mit der Karte haben und listest dann selber gleich 3 Beispiele.

Die Antwort ist also Ja. Auch wenn du dich auf die konkreten Beispiele eingestellt hast, heißt das ja nicht dass man da als Laufkunde nicht zufällig in die Bäckerei, Apotheke oder den Friseur reingeht und dann aufgeschmissen ist.

Und vor allem den Apothekenbesuch beim Arzt Pläne ich selten konkret ein, weil ich da bin wenn ich krank bin.

Wow, wenn alle Petitionen so effektiv wäre würde ich häufiger welche unterschreiben. Vor wenigen Stunden heute vormittag habe ich erst diese Petition unterschrieben und schon gibt es eine neue Entwicklung.

Als jemand der Teil einer Gemeinde ist, die mehrfach Kirchenasyl gewährt hat, bin ich ein wenig zwiegespalten.

Die Personen denen Asyl gewährt wurden, hatten es alle meiner Meinung nach nicht verdient abgeschoben zu werden, aber das entspricht meiner generellen Meinung über die meisten Flüchtlinge.

Allerdings denke ich, dass Flüchtlinge die es schaffen in Gemeinden aufgenommen zu werden und da dann auch ehrenamtlich von vielen Freiwilligen versorgt werden eine Extrem hohe Chance auf eine gute Integration in die Gesellschaft haben. Damit haben sie quasi einen Bürgen für die Aufnahme.

Trotzdem ist es natürlich problematisch, dass die Kirche sich hier "über" das Gesetz stellt. (Wobei man sagen muss das manche Ausländerbehörden auch eigenwillige Gesetzesauslegungen haben.)

Am Ende wünsche ich für alle Flüchtlinge den Support, den die wenigen im Kirchenasyl bekommen und eine insgesamt positivere Aufnahme von Flüchtlingen. Vor allem die Einschränkungen zu Arbeiten und die nicht Anerkennung von Abschlüssen hemmt die Integration enorm.

I find the lacking/inconsistent integration between Atlassian tools annoying.

Why is there no useful Bitbucket <-> Confluence integration? Why is the markdown or other syntax in Jira so inconsistent. You have to use different stiles in Jira Comments, acceptance criteria and Story titles.

But to be fair with Jira: Often it is the using company who misconfigures in an absolute mess as they try to reimplement some horrible SAP CRM flow which they wanted to get away from before.

Just because something is free it does not mean that there is no marketplace or product. Sozial Media is generally free, but I would still call Facebook, Tiktok or Instagram a product.

Nowadays a lot of industries start out completely free, but move into paid subscription models later.

I think if my parents were multimillionaires I would be even more busy enjoying my life than fighting a fight with uneven odds.

Of course coming from a stable background makes it easier to be an activist, but it is still far from easy to devote your life to one cause.

Speaking from a German perspective I feel like the Fridays for future movement has significantly affected (parts of) her generation. I have many colleagues whose kids are focusing on a diet with less environmental impact and also asking their parents to change.

It is impressive that it has been such a long running and wide spreading movement and I am sure that there will be many politicians, activists and entrepreneurs coming out of this movement in the future.

It is hard to expect anything more from a child who has been belittled constantly. I wish I would be standing up for my believes as strongly as she does.

That is only partly true. The Döner Kebab was invented in Berlin (by a guy with Turkish origen). Due to the high Turkish population in Germany there are tons of Döner Shops and it is actually much easier to find a Döner in Germany than in Turkey.

I highly doubt they will switch plans. This current solution seems far from any real productive use.

Compare to the battery industry which has frequent announcements of new solid state or natrium batteries, but there is still much investment in "old" lithium ion batteries since they are proven to be productive and they are also approved to be used in products.

According to the article fabrication seems to have a very low yield. That will generally make it difficult for consumer products.

I would generally assume first use would be in locations were super conductors are already used today. E. g. in MRI machines which would then not require cooling anymore and therefore could be more compact, quieter and consuming much less energy.

Other prime fields for super conductors are energy transportation from the energy producers to the consumers.

Application in electronics seems difficult for me as the material is not used stand alone there and therefore new fabrication processes and designs will be needed. After all it will not work to use this material to replace silicon transistors as our transistor designs are relying on the semiconductor nature of silicone and a superconductor cannot follow this by definition. Maybe the connections between transistors can be replaced, but I am not sure where most of the heat generation happens. If I remember my physics studies correctly there is also significant energy loss within the transistor and that would still mean that the cpu would heat up. This would be now especially critical as the temperature must not exceed the temperature where the material loses super conductivity as this would most likely lead to a fast melt down of the device.
