Thank you!

It would be interesting which city and which bus brand 🙂

Important to know when talking about relative growth:

This brought the market share of Chinese brands in Europe to a new high of 5.1 percent

Some examples

• You need to pay a lot of lawyers on both sides
• You can get fired for not having kids, being young or not married
• People who are bad at their job are hard to lay off (this can include well payed managers)
• Companies find other creative ways to lay you off (if you charge your phone at work, you are stealing electricity)

Come to Germany and see for yourself :)

That‘s how it is in Germany. You can only get laid off without a negotiated severance package, when the employer is in financial trouble. Even then you need start laying people off the employer needs to do it according to the social contract (e.g. single mothers last). Both is really hard to proof (in court) so usually everyone gets a severance package anyway. This means when you hear about big layoffs in Germany usually all of them get a severance package or agree to something else. These layoffs are not comparable to the USA. This is the shortened and positive descriptions of the process, but of course there are also (justifiable) downsides of doing it this way.

But others do get excited. Thanks for sharing the link :)

My opinion: Figuring monetization out while keeping most of your audience happy will be the most important step to be a viable alternative to YouTube. Big YouTubers like LinusTechTips, Corridor Digital or something like Nebula already have their own service, because it is worth it to have fewer people pay more. Sadly everyone of them develops their own solution which are not interoperable. Are you in the talks with anyone to migrate to PeerTube backend? I think this would be such a gamechanger.

This would be so cool as an interactive web app

This is really cool and I will definitely try it out! Am I missing something or is there really no contributors license agreement?

I did some research on that graphic. The image originates from this article: https://www.datapulse.de/en/nuclear-energy/. It has a pro nuclear power tone: „The discussion for or against nuclear energy is likely far from over even after shutting down German reactors domestically.“ This is rhetoric from the CDU, FDP or AfD, even though no energy provider agrees with this. Also the article doesn‘t mention the problem of nuclear waste disposal, which for Germany is not due to be solved until 2046.

Digging around in Data Pulse affiliation I couldn‘t find much. May be someone else can find more on this. The CEO Nicolas Caramella has founded Data Pulse in 2023 with only prior experience in different marketing / SEO positions: https://de.linkedin.com/in/nicocaramella

May be show the video or provide a link here?

Cant you make that decision on the 25th? I mean you need some kind of summary for an event and why people should join (in person).

Can we please always link to the original data?

I was expecting a punk rock band, but the song is quite nice either way :)

You could build a literal infinity pool…

May be: I own a FrameWork laptop (bought the older generation new, because it is fast enough for me, but I want to support them). Also I self host a couple of web services myself (music streaming, file storage, RSS). I also live in a shared flat (although I could afford my own appartment) and take the bike to go everywhere in the city.

I dont know if that counts as solar punk. However, I think that many of the comments are very inspiring :D

Not trying to defend the AI hype train here, but isn’t this the case for basically every new technology: steam engines replaced muscle labor, computers replaced people doing the calculations, the internet replaced many different occupation.

And for the most part we are better off now. Calling someone in a different country, let alone on another continent was crazy expensive just a few decades ago. Lemmy is built on these technology and would not be possible if all had to be done by human labor (a literal mailing list?).

Having said that I think the main issue with AI (LLMs) or the internet at the moment is regulation or the lack of it.

You want that if you strongly believe that your hate speech counts as free speech

I wonder if Lenovo gets a revenue share when they sell a game on the device. This could also explain the $100 price difference as the they are counting on the additional income. Are there any leaks / rumors on this?

In Germany the current government had the idea (but never follow through on it) to allow a married couple to form a new last name based on their last names. Funnily enough the article mentions that this meshing of names is already possible and getting more popular in the USA and Great Britain.
