Yeah, this is exactly the point of the "problem" OP complains about. Charge people for overproduction, so they're encouraged to buy a home battery and contribute in the night.

Eventually home batteries will become a standard part of such installations.

This will continue until Europe resolves the migration crisis, and deals with the growing insecurity and the collapse in living standards.

Sweden has devalued the currency massively (over 20% since 2020) - so it makes for cheap foreign investment.

But the lump of labour fallacy is wrong - in the end automation makes us all wealthier as goods become cheaper, and people can do more productive work (and be better educated for it too).

This is incredible, it feels like parts of the USA are so advanced.

Here in Sweden we're going backwards, they even took out self-scanning at a lot of supermarkets due to theft.

Kerbal Space Program, Shadow Empire and Baldur's Gate 3.

What were they being arrested for though?

[-] nivenkos@lemmy.ml 6 points 7 months ago

The issue is the physics. 60Hz doesn't give you much time to do everything that needs to be calculated in the interval. All the objects can interact with one another so it's not easily independent and parallelisable.

There's still optimisations that can be made - disable physics and have only certain actions enable them for nearby objects, smaller physics range, fewer physics-enabled objects, etc. - but those all have drawbacks for the gameplay and realism too.

We were already a lot poorer than the US, and now the gap is really opening up. At this rate China will overtake Europe by 2040 or so.

It's really the combination of the energy crisis (we are dependent on Russian gas or US LNG - we don't have enough nuclear), demographics crisis (the public pensions are unsustainable, and yet it continues to be forced upon workers having their income stolen by governments who almost certainly won't provide a pension for them in the future), and just a general lack of investment in the future infrastructure and technology (it's been over a decade, and we're still not ready for full electric vehicle switchover, nor is international high-speed rail competitive with airlines, etc.).

Almost all of them support Hamas though, even in the West Bank.

In fact, it's extremely likely that Hamas (or some off-shoot) will soon end up as the government there too.

Why would Ukraine be terrorists? It's not like they entered Russia taken civilians hostage and committed mass rape and murder in a day of rampage against civilians. That is what Hamas did, that is what the Palestinians mostly support.
