Auckland city is such an insanely depressing place to work. Im liking the new walkable spaces and the bike paths and the bus routes this is great and makes me want to be there but I hate the homeless people.
They're often aggressive and everytime you have to walk past them which is multiple times a day you never know if theyre going to get set off. Its getting so bad with tents springing up in random bushes.
Idk if you have the specs to run tekken 7 but you can try if you already own the game. sudo dnf install steam
Then open steam and go to the settings look for compatibility and make sure thats on.
Then try running tekken 7.
If tekken 7 is to laggy you can try tekken 3. If you want to try that I can type up instructions. You can either install the PC version or use a ps2 emulator and play the ps2 versions. I'd recommend the ps2 emulator because its easy and the games are easy to find.
2 years jail and a further year off driving doesnt seem enough for manslaughter by dangerous driving. Maybe 5 years off driving for being such a stupid cunt.
It doesnt mean anything but its good to get these kind of practices while Lemmy is still small. It seems the.migration process has come along way since 2 years ago.
Hopefully one day we can copy and pay entire threads and comments into the new community or have 100% transfer.
edit: boy I sure do love to procrastinate and talk about energy and co2 instead of studying :|
I feel the same way, but I had to actually focus on real life over the weekend instead of combing through the energy reports. I will start by saying that its very likely that 2024 stats are significantly more in favor of strong renewable growth but I also couldnt find a csv of data on ember-energy so i couldnt look at the actual numbers. The major energy reports I normally go by dont seem to have included 2024 data yet. Its likely that even in 2024 non renewables still increased more than renewables even though china claims that renewables were 80% of the growth I will explain below why this has previously been the case.
China also continues to increase coal generation by more than renewables.
China loves this stat and its a good stat but its a bit misleading, these show renewable energy as a % of total power which is relative instead of absolute. Why this is important is because it allows china to brag about increasing renewables while still massively increasing non renewables.
Year 2022: Renewable = 8114 TWh | Non-renewable = 36401 TWh | % renewables = 18.2% From Energy Institute's world review
Renewable energy increase was 605 TWh and Non-renewable was 2307 TWh
There is another stat that these reports normally parade around. Its % increase of a specific energy type. (these stats are made up cause i could be fucked finding an example article of a claim) They will say something like solar went from 600gw to 1000 thats a 66% increase this year and coal only increased 40% except coal is 3600gw to 6400.
Maybe I'm wrong and if so i'd love for someone smarter than me to correct me.
They have missed every single renewable target and goal they’re set.
China does this thing where they go to climate meetings and agree on world goals like 13% energy intensity reduction and carbon intensity reduction. They then go back home and broadcast random goals like adding x amount of solar or carbon peak by x year. These are no climate targets, these are personal targets from the CCP that even if achieved (the carbon peak 1000% wont be) are no where close to what is required to meet their climate goals.
Europe has plenty of money apparently to suddenly double defense spending OVER 10 YEARS
I'm not sure how european defense spending is relevant considering china's defense spending has also more than doubled in the last few years and is nearing the US
Where will the batteries be made I wonder?
Prehaps they would be made in a country with environmental and labour laws if governments legislated properly to prevent companies outsourcing manufacturing. However this doesnt absolve china. China isnt being forced at Gunpoint to produce these goods with low labour regulation and low environmental regulation.
energy prices in the EU are ridiculous
Can someone actually point out to me where this comes from? Even when I look up the peak spike of germany Energy prices it doesnt seem that bad. At the end of the day energy is a small % of EU household spending and ill think that until i see otherwise.
It requires EU importers to pay a levy corresponding to the embedded carbon emissions in 303 emission-intensive products
This would be great, it would have been greater 10 years ago. But the best time to act was yesterday and the 2nd best time is today so i'd be happy to see something like this implemented although I dont know how effective it would be since manufacturing competitiveness is no where close anymore.
