  • like social media passing the buck to their users with no regard for accuracy.

    Lol this is the whole idea of the social networks - outsourcing of the work to the users (or "useds" as Stallman calls them). This used to be called "web 2.0". In other news, this also highlights one of the shortcomings behind the idea of democracy.

  • I had similar experience with my onkyo. It was ocuuring only when set in a "special" mode of being a mutimedia center of the whole living room - the mode where all the video and audio inputs go to it and it handles them and forwards the video output to the TV. I disabled it and instead connected all the inputs to the TV itself and forwarded audio only to the amp. This drastically decreased the standby usage. Maybe it applies to your situation too. Anyway, I am pretty sure draw this big in the standby is illegal in the EU.

  • The "play games" can. Three filters I always use in combination: "Premium" (i.e. paid), "no ads", "no in-app purchases". In the current version of the app you have to scroll quite down to find these.

  • Actually the official google "play games" app has a nice feature that should be included in play store: it can filter for games without purchases.

    Other than that, the mentioned minireview app has good filters.

  • Found the source (if wiki can be considered):

    It was NOT bio gas, it was Natural gas (i.e. russian gas).

    Natural gas is seen by some countries as the bridge between coal and renewable energy, and those countries argue for natural gas to be considered sustainable under a set of conditions.[47] Germany in particular was a strong supporter towards its inclusion in the taxonomy, moreover advancing a request to the Commission to further ease environmental restrictions on its use.

    https://www.euractiv.com/section/energy-environment/news/germany-takes-firm-pro-gas-stance-in-green-taxonomy-feedback-to-eu/

    Now piss off with the revisionism.

  • Yes it was, but I can't find the sources now. It was some time after the recent invasion of Ukraine by the eastern hordes; titles were something like "Germany reclasified natural gas as renewable'. My memory fails me, so it may have been different gas and different purpose than electricity. Anyway, it came as a very poor taste.

    In other news, Germany imports quite some percentage of its electricity from other countries, like nuclear-produced electricity from France. So, in a sense and to a degree, it outsources the emissions to other countries.

    Edit: sources of both claims below.
