What about having a life support system connected?

Every commercial fuel recycling plant in existence releases large amounts of radioactivity into the air and water, so I dont really see them as a good alternative.

Here is a world map of iodine 129 before fukushima, its one of many radioactive isotopes released at nuclear reprocessing plants: https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/images/iupac/j_pac-2015-0703_fig_076.jpg The website where I got it from: https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/element/Iodine#section=Isotopes-in-Forensic-Science-and-Anthropology

Considering how long it would take to build safe reactors, how expensive it would be and how much radioactive contamination would be created both at the production of fuel and later when the storage ever goes wrong after thousands of years, I just dont see any reason to ever invest into it nowadays, when renewables and batteries have gotten so good.

Yeah, I visited sweden once, where I camped in nature. The cities were meh, but the nature was very nice.

In the east maybe, its definetly not bad at all in northern germany (Schleswig Holstein).

It would be a kinda fun league to watch, but I dont want to hear about athletes dying because they took obscene amounts of steroids to be the best.

As a German, afaik if you want to permanently move to germany you need to prove that you can support yourself financially (or someone else will?), so you will need a job offer and or some savings.

There is no requirement to not be disabled, but being disabled could make fulfilling those requirements more difficult.

They also allow you to plug in a grounded Schuko Plug (Its the german one) without connecting the earth, cant get much more dangerous than that. I think the french plug also can be plugged in but it doesnt connect the earth either.

I know, but thats still much better than it was before and I think we will slowly move towards full legalisation.

But seeds were actually always legal, you just werent allowed to plant them.

What is also good is that weed is no longer classified as a narcotic (Betäubungsmittel), so it can be prescribed like any other medicine. While medicinal Cannabis was legal before, the hurdles to get it were way too high.

Well, its legal now in Germany

Here in Germany some McDonalds and Burger King do have self serve drink machines with unlimited drinks, but they are not that many (I would guess 10-20%). Some other fast food chains are more likely to have them, like Subway.

I dont know if they have all the metal you want, but maybe Youtube Music. One youtuber has stated that he gets about twice as much per view from YT Music than he does from Spotify.

Have you ever tried just pulling it back a little bit before you pee?

Thats what I do when its cold outside and I want to pee, but not on me.

Yeah, while the roads in the Netherlands are definetly better than ours in Germany, the Belgian roads are just so much worse.

I think those markings are not because you need to know in which country you are, but because they want to show their borders for a few reasons:

It is cool.

It shows their heritage and identity as a border town.

It helps tourism.

I have 10kwh of storage, which helps a lot, and it wasnt that expensive, especially compared to a few years ago.

Now that sodium ion batteries are actually starting to become available we will see them taking over stationary storage, but for now LiFePo4 works pretty good.

I have (had) a few friends who communicate like this and its just annoying and exhausting. I am never planning anything again with them involved because they cannot state if they actually will or want to come.

Thats a little bit less than my solar house install has produced in the last year, and it was only up for half of it.

Just imagine how much fossil fuels we could save if everyone had solar on their roofs and if wind power would be more widespread as well.

Edge has started doing that too, whenever I download something from my Home Assistant instance while at home I have to rightclick and say that I really want to download it.

As long as such an option is available its not too bad.

Then you can just install something else on it?

I get that it sucks when a device is locked, because you might need to install a different OS for a multitude of reasons, but as long as you are able to install whatever you want I dont blame the manufacturer.

You can install whatever you want on a Steam Deck afaik, so I dont get what you are trying to say here.
