    Germany: Green energy made workplaces mostly in China
    • image

      For each workplace made in production sector in Germany it is around 10-12 made in China.

      Most of green energy related companies either went out of business or owned by Chinese firms now (frequently it is hidden as they can have 5-6 intermediate owners) :-)

    Good quote: On fascism and capitalism
    • Fascism is a modern historical phase in the development of capitalism, and in this sense it is something both new and old at the same time.
      In the fascist countries, capitalism now exists only as fascism, and therefore it is possible to fight against fascism only as against capitalism, capitalism of the most undisguised, in its most arrogant, cruel and demagogic form.
      What will happen if the enemy of fascism tries to tell the truth about it without touching upon the capitalism that generates it? Where can we get to the truth, suitable for practical application! Opponents of fascism, who are not opponents of capitalism, with their complaints of barbarism stemming from barbarism, resemble people who do not mind eating a calf, but do not want animal to be stabbed to death. They love meat, but cannot stand the sight of blood. Let the butcher wash his hands before bringing the meat; that will be perfectly satisfactory. After all, they are not against property relations that give rise to barbarism, but only against barbarism as such.
      They raise their voice against barbarism in countries where the same property relations prevail, but where butchers still wash their hands before bringing meat.

      Bertolt Brecht

    MAGA: Fuck the freedom of speech
    • UTA fired Mandalorian actress Gina Carano after she compared the US political climate to the persecution of Jews in Germany after the Nazis came to power in the 1930s. Also, Lucasfilm studio refused to cooperate with the artist.

      Carano published a post on social media in which she stated that Jews in Germany were beaten by their neighbors, not just Nazi soldiers." “Since history is reigning, many today do not understand that before Nazi soldiers began arresting Jews by the thousands, the government first made its own citizens hate them for being Jews. How is this different from hating someone because of their political views? " - asked the actress.

      Lucasfilm said it had stopped working with Carano and would not consider working with the actress in the future.

      Company representatives emphasized that Carano's posts on social networks, in which she “denigrates people based on their cultural characteristics or religious beliefs,” are unacceptable and disgusting.

      Gina Carano is an American MMA fighter, also known for her role as former Rebel Alliance stormtrooper Cara Dune in the TV series The Mandalorian. The show is set in the universe of the Star Wars franchise.

    War: On RSS and its silent role
    • I firmly believe the Internet, and what it stood for, peaked with RSS.

      RSS, or Really-Simple-Syndication, is (or was depending on your viewpoint) a means of allowing basically anything online to be collated into a single feed. You would visit the websites you loved, add their RSS feed to your preferred reader, and from then on be instantly notified of any new content, it was as simple as that. RSS primarily had its heyday during the Web 2.0 era (circa 1999-2010) when the freedom to do whatever you wanted with the information present on the Web was really the driving force behind a lot of new features and systems. This was of course before Social Media had taken off in the way we know it today and most of these concepts were siloed off into their own locked-down social-feeds.

      Once Social-Media took its hold on the Web if there was something/someone you wanted to follow online you just added them to your Twitter feed or subscribed on YouTube; a fine idea until you decide you don't like the layout of the site in question or an algorithm decides you don't need to see the work of those you care about as often as you want (aka the curated timeline). I've already spoken before about my general disinterest with Social Media but it wasn't until somewhat recently that I decided to really start looking for alternatives - searching for a better way to interact with the Internet. I found my answer in RSS. I enjoyed the freedom to see sources as I wanted, the flexibility to move to a new reader if I wanted, the complete lack of advertising. It was hard to not fall in love with the service.

      War on RSS started in sync with war with forums and any independent communities. Apple, Google and other monsters do not want all this to exist.

      Issue is that this monsters are ruled by enemies of the people and their fate is clear.

    Good quote: Why you need to read liberal stuff
    • Lenin liked to use the expression "class truth, rudely, openly expressed by the class enemy."

      He even advised his comrades to read the newspapers of the Black Hundreds. In 1917, while hiding from arrest, Lenin asked his comrades: "Can't I get the newspapers of the extreme right-wing parties?" “I had to get it,” recalled journalist Jukka Latukka. - Ilyich paid especial attention to the Black-Hundred newspapers. "It is a pity," Lenin remarked, "that the Social-Democrats do not catch these sparks of truth from the black hundred."

      Lenin retained this attachment to the writings of his enemies even after October. Bolshevik Maria Skrypnik recalled how he read liberal newspapers: “So he took the latest issue of Rech ... Reading ... Lenin was not irritated, on the contrary, he laughed with a contented look ... Looking at him at these moments, I recalled the well-known Bebel's words: "If our enemies revile us, then we are doing the right thing." One day she asked why the Cadet newspapers still continue to appear. "If we will close the newspapers," replied Lenin, "we will not know what our enemies think of us." Cadet newspapers were published in the Soviet Russia until August 1918, when the open war with exact this same cadets started.

    Bad design: Fake memory foam ventilation holes
    • image

      Holes actually came from stupid managers who started to imitate solid latex that requires holes for vulcanization (not for better ventilation!).

      Even in all rolled latex holes are made specifically (by idiots) to play on people limited knowledge and make it look like latex. Such thin latex is vulcanized only by two sides, not require any holes and using completely differently looking machines.

      In memory foam 99% of all ventilation comes from proper structure, and even with it memory foam is always worst ventilated foam as it is tightly compressed near your body almost blocking any air in and moisture out. Btw any gel infusion and such is also fake shit, as it make foam feel cooler for limited amount of time, until temperature of gel particles will rise :-)

    MAGA: Big tech will be allowed to make and fully control goverments
    • The Governor of Nevada plans to introduce new legislation that would effectively allow tech companies to form separate local governments within the state. In a draft proposal Governor Steve Sisolak calls for creating what he calls “Innovation Zones.” Were the legislation to pass, companies with substantial amounts of money that operate in verticals like blockchain, artificial intelligence and renewables would have the option to form local governments with the same powers and responsibilities as counties. That means they would be able to collect taxes, as well as operate things like school boards and courts.

      The draft bill suggests the traditional local government model is “inadequate alone to provide the flexibility and resources conducive to making the State a leader in attracting and retaining new forms and types of businesses and fostering economic development in emerging technologies and innovative industries.”
