It doesnt mean anything but its good to get these kind of practices while Lemmy is still small. It seems the.migration process has come along way since 2 years ago.
Hopefully one day we can copy and pay entire threads and comments into the new community or have 100% transfer.

edit: boy I sure do love to procrastinate and talk about energy and co2 instead of studying :|
I feel the same way, but I had to actually focus on real life over the weekend instead of combing through the energy reports. I will start by saying that its very likely that 2024 stats are significantly more in favor of strong renewable growth but I also couldnt find a csv of data on ember-energy so i couldnt look at the actual numbers. The major energy reports I normally go by dont seem to have included 2024 data yet. Its likely that even in 2024 non renewables still increased more than renewables even though china claims that renewables were 80% of the growth I will explain below why this has previously been the case.
China also continues to increase coal generation by more than renewables.
China loves this stat and its a good stat but its a bit misleading, these show renewable energy as a % of total power which is relative instead of absolute. Why this is important is because it allows china to brag about increasing renewables while still massively increasing non renewables.
Year 2022: Renewable = 8114 TWh | Non-renewable = 36401 TWh | % renewables = 18.2% From Energy Institute’s world review
Year 2023: Renewable = 8719 TWh | Non-renewable = 38708 TWh | % renewables = 18.3%
Renewable energy increase was 605 TWh and Non-renewable was 2307 TWh
There is another stat that these reports normally parade around. Its % increase of a specific energy type. (these stats are made up cause i could be fucked finding an example article of a claim) They will say something like solar went from 600gw to 1000 thats a 66% increase this year and coal only increased 40% except coal is 3600gw to 6400.
Maybe I’m wrong and if so i’d love for someone smarter than me to correct me.
They have missed every single renewable target and goal they’re set.
China does this thing where they go to climate meetings and agree on world goals like 13% energy intensity reduction and carbon intensity reduction. They then go back home and broadcast random goals like adding x amount of solar or carbon peak by x year. These are no climate targets, these are personal targets from the CCP that even if achieved (the carbon peak 1000% wont be) are no where close to what is required to meet their climate goals.
Europe has plenty of money apparently to suddenly double defense spending OVER 10 YEARS
I’m not sure how european defense spending is relevant considering china’s defense spending has also more than doubled in the last few years and is nearing the US
Where will the batteries be made I wonder?
Prehaps they would be made in a country with environmental and labour laws if governments legislated properly to prevent companies outsourcing manufacturing. However this doesnt absolve china. China isnt being forced at Gunpoint to produce these goods with low labour regulation and low environmental regulation.
energy prices in the EU are ridiculous
Can someone actually point out to me where this comes from? Even when I look up the peak spike of germany Energy prices it doesnt seem that bad. At the end of the day energy is a small % of EU household spending and ill think that until i see otherwise.
It requires EU importers to pay a levy corresponding to the embedded carbon emissions in 303 emission-intensive products
This would be great, it would have been greater 10 years ago. But the best time to act was yesterday and the 2nd best time is today so i’d be happy to see something like this implemented although I dont know how effective it would be since manufacturing competitiveness is no where close anymore.
They broadly arent really very techy and absolutely hate the idea of anything new. So nah they broadly hate federation and adopting any new platforms.
Especially given that the fediverse already has a culture of being actively anti racism and hate they wouldnt be able to move here without getting instantly defederated and they know this. I’m sure the leftypol commies are already here.
Does headless monitor fixes on Wayland mean we can stream 4k video to a 4k device without having a 4k monitor on our PC?
If you subscribe to someone on tumblr then yes. Otherwise i dont think so.
Adoption is actually already there. The problem at the moment is getting people to pay for it because currently they lose money on each prompt even for paying users.
I can’t see this image in the mobile app
3 hrs is probably to long to be doing everyday but its fine to do an hour of running + yoga every day. I think its normal to feel tried because you’re working every day and its your first 6 months.
If you’re tired you can drop it down to 4 days until you feel better.
Yeah the .ml must have missed this thread.
While everyone else is paying the costs that come with environmental regulation china is exploiting it and getting celebrated for it. Its insane what a few dollars can do to change peoples minds on a topic.
Nice I love seeing China Greenwashing get reposted. Remember that China is 3x the size of the EU so them having 3x the solar power is a stupid comparison. China also continues to increase coal generation by more than renewables. China is only %27 renewables while the EU is 47%. China is 17% of the world and almost 40% of the emissions.
OECD countries are actually working on emission reduction instead of china which continue to increase emissions with absolute no signs of stopping. They have missed every single renewable target and goal they’re set. But dont worry im sure they will stop building more coal plants in 2030, im sure it wont be to late by then.
Its already waging psychological warfare on me in the workplace. Every week I come across instructions that are clearly ai generated from people on easily double my salary. Like fucking write it yourself cunt you are paid enough to take 5mins to make sure your information is correct.
Judge,I’m pirating them to train ai not to consume for my own personal use.
“We” outsourced manufacturing? No independent private companies moved manufacturing to China because their lab or was cheap and they had no environmental regulations.
They are exploiting this right now by scaling up production to take advantage of the countries that are trying to combat climate change.
They dont have a coherent plan, if you’ve followed chinas climate change journey youd know theyve missed every single milestone and target.
Dam the bar is so low that increasing emissions puts and installing a few solar panels puts you above people who installed renewables and reduced emissions. Its wild how low your standards are for the largest polluter.
Maybe other countries should stop reducing emissions and go back to growing their economy and install some solar panels.
Why do they get to continue to pollute while everyone else has to ramp down? Everyone elses economy should slow down and manufacturing costs go up except China for some reason. I guess they’re just a small developing nation despite having the largest gdp.
Also I don’t care if they have the most solar generation, they also burn the most coal and the most pollution more than the next 6 biggest polluters combined.
Its not “pretty good considering they are the worlds factory” Any country can throw down some solar panels with the money earned from removing all environmental regulations and raping the earth.
Canada, Brazil, Norway any OPEC country.
