It must be great to have all that freedom, like the freedom from having universal health insurance:

They make it worse, artificially or in other cases create it from scratch where there wouldn’t be any without scalpers. In any case they do not add value and are a solution to a problem they either cause or make worse.

I am ever more convinced that the above “article” was primarily by LLM.

I’d even say that depends. If you are using your car almost exclusively for commuting and relatively short rides, like most people do, chances are you just plug it in at home and never even have to drive to a “gas station”. I’d call that more convenient.

They are a symptom, but they are a problem too. Denying that is pure laissez-faire capitalism. Scalpers create artificial supply issues to increase prices while adding zero value. That it pays off because some pay that, doesn’t change any of that.

In this case of course the original price was already high and that scalper price is absurd. I’d be surprised if a lot of people are ready to pay that kind of money for it, but what do I know.

Good news, the West is moving towards that as well. The US is already pretty much there, Putin’s allies on the populist right (but also some on the populist left) aim for the same.

And there you have the problem.

Nothing about the prediction is populistic. Claiming that one simulation was already given imperative results is populistic. Like I said, it took considerably longer than just until the 1950 until this climate scenario was scientific consensus.

Things do move slowly, not always but if we are talking about radical change of our infrastructure and also uprooting the way the economy works, those things are measured in decades, not years. We can deny that and just detach ourself from reality or work within reality.

To point out anything more detailed, I would need to know what the article actually writes about. I am not saying that there were no failings.

Is it correct that this under load (like challenging gaming) operating at TDP of up to 220? Cooling that with a single 120mm fan for a server cooler that is apparently designed for high pressure forced air flow sounds challenging.

Are companies breaking the law by paying below minimum wage or are the laws useless? In both cases people that are not tipping are not the problem.

Railway infrastructure is commonly built for a 100 year lifespan. Even if it is updated, many norms are grandfathered in. Changing that requires enourmous effort.

That aside, your 1950 date is rather populistic. It was absolutely not scientific consensus back then that climate would change like that. It was only in the 1970s that this changed. That was 50 years ago and yes, that is not an enourmous long timespan for reworking our entire infrastructure. The Netherlands for example needed that time to undo the car centric dogma back to a multimodal one. The harmonisation process for rail control systems in Europe is easily 2-3 decades in the making and will easily need another 1-2 decades to even cover most of the primary network.

The article is behind a paywall so I can’t comment ton specifics but to think all the norms and all the infrastructure could be easily changed, is taking a few short cuts. Granted, a lot of things can be changed at much faster pace but then also at much higher cost and also much higher waste.

I am not saying one should not be serious about those changes, but nothing is gained from polemics.

Rail infrastructure is to a large extend older than Univac 1. Never mind that just because one prediction came to a result, doesn’t make it scientific concensus and standards don’t change over night.

The thief cries “catch the thief!”

Things are built to norms and standards. Quite some of it was built when the current trends were absolutely not foreseen, well before the 1970s. Updating everything is no small task, especially if that requires complete reconstruction of some parts.

It always happens that all those super correct and honest politicians get corrupted by corrupt and evil Brussels. Happened to the former interior minister of Austria as well, as soon as he became an MEP. /s

That’s why I said it is not the same as in gas power stations. It is perfectly possible though, the cooling loop doesn’t have to have the temperature of domestic hot water. That is what heat pumps are for. They have built data centers doing it already in 2017.

But they still shy away from calling it by its name “ethnic cleansing”, never mind calling it Endlösung. I am pretty convinced however, that in private some of them at least are not shying away from that anymore.

He is working together with the Sweden Democrats. You don’t need to second guess the motivations there. The Sweden Democrats don’t care one bit about the well being of migrants. The whole idea is absurd.

The term “Remigration” does not mean “helping” anyone with anything. It’s exclusively used by people demanding ethnic cleansing, or at the very least systematic deportations of all refugees (rather also other immigrants, choice of groups may vary and in it may also include 2nd, 3rd or even 4th generations depending on their background and/or religion)

It is really just an euphemism for ethnic cleansing, something that will require a modern equivalent of an Arier-Nachweis.
