@Erpel Ah yes corpo speak is lovely where "restructuring" is just fancy speak for "Cutting cost by letting people go"

@Erpel Erpel joining doing drawings on fedi now?

@Erpel @catraxx But the shareholders! Think the SHAREHOLDERS and Execs Erpel!

Obviously they need money from the government YESTERDAY to fix. Oh sadly we have to let go of workers otherwise.... buhuu.

ffs.

@Erpel Ah yes. In typical capitalist fashion. Some things never change. Leveraging workers when its convinient for them to get a bailout after not innovating and getting their ass handed to them by china.

Urgh.

Sorry but this is far too accurate

@Erpel @kura showing that to you after you pay them way more than any fucking advertisement... You love to see it.

@alice please call your doctor... Its important or ask someone to do it for you?

@waifu cute maido!

I look also cute as a maido but not this cute

@mametsuko we sleepy again?

@mametsuko Mornin Mame

If more people post their off-the-cuff drawings, then you promote others too as well. This is one way you create a culture of creation.

For instance, shitposting with a drawing instead of a meme from the internet.

@epsi You say that as it was not the case already. .art can go home. This is now the new art bubble!

i draw miku!!!!

@bananas @NeonPurpleStar exactly.

@NeonPurpleStar @rick Obviously going with the cheap LNG from russia was not the greatest Idea in hindsight. Sure but again it was never really used all that much for electricity anyway. 15% more less for the last decades really.

Germany should have pushed more on its peers for electricity but I cannot the russian gas being used for this purpose. More likely its heating and for that having or not having nuclear is irrelevant.

Like 40% of heating is gas. Thats why the LNG was needed not to substitute nuclear

It does not in any way (in my view) turn it in a was where we should not have done the step.

@fabos Just look at how much is spent each year on that stuff still. Its sickening...

@NeonPurpleStar @rick They would not been any cheaper. Most of the electricity was not made by gas but coal. Using gas for electricity instead of heating is prohibitibly expensive and only really for emergencies where you have nothing else.

But as I already nuclear just appears cheap. It actually is not. But subsidies do their job

@NeonPurpleStar I am sorry. Like no. It was certainly not. Like nuclear power only seems so cheap since its heavily subsidized by taxpayers. The state is bearing the responsibility of getting the waste somewhere safe and we still have no solution and there is no solution even in sight. Costs a lot of money.

It is insane how much we still spend on that stuff.

Also Water and cooling is getting harder and harder. Look at france for that.

Am I happy that instead we use a lot of coal for electricity? Nope. Gas even worse.

But also I want to blame politics so much here. They killed germanys good solar panel industry and doing the same with heatpumps.

Tech moved on and photovoltaik really came to its own. With a battery you will be very happy.

Wind could need more of an uplift but NIMBYs be like they are...

Still I think it was and still is the right desicion.
