And more renewable energy. And more high speed rail. And has over 90% of the worlds BEV buses.
You sound like a wumoa. These are literally CPP propaganda talking points. Especially the high-speed rail line.
What does “high speed rail” and “BEV buses” have to do with the discussion about renewable energy? Nothing. It’s just thrown in to say “China good, West bad”.
I’m talking about stuff like this
China added more coal power in 2023 than the rest of the world combined.
China invests so much into it
China is building two coal plants per week. And their “green” programs are just facades to take Western money.
It’s time that Europe remembers what war is
You mean the place that’s still finding mines from WW2 in farmers fields?
Aurora gets a vote from me. I set it up for my technically repulsive father, and he gets on just fine with it.
They kind of already do. The C used by the kernel team isn’t the exact same as what everyone else uses. Mainly because of the tooling they’ve built around it. I can’t remember specifics, but the tooling in place really helps out in that department.
Also, “memory safe C” is already a proposal for the C lang project.
I’ve never used beeper, but I’ve been using Ferdium for years I have all in one app:
You mean a desktop application? If so you can use the web version, or even better, use Ferdium. It lets you connect to various messaging services and integrates them like a native desktop app.
“Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.”
there are no major comprehensive studies that definitively show microplastics are a danger to the body
I’m not sure what your criteria for “major comprehensive study” is, but there are countless studies linking microplastics to all sorts of things. Most arterial plaques are full of microplastics. The massive drop of male fertility rates (50% globally) has been linked to microplastics. Microplastics have been demonstrated to interfere at the cellular level by mimicking hormones.
The specifics of everything that they’re doing to us is still unknown. But we know many bad things microplastics definitely are doing.
We’re WELL past “are microplastics bad?”. We’re at the point of figuring out how badly screwed we are.
He looked at his fingers and thought “I hope no one eats these. I better do something about that.”
Also, nuclear power is also unreliable because they regularly gets shut down for maintenance or safety reasons.
This sounds like one of those bizarrely bad anti-nuclear talking points.
Everything needs maintenance. That’s how literally everything works. But nuclear is by leagues and bounds more stable, predictable, and reliable compared to every other power source. Cold, hot, light, dark, windy, calm, rain, snow, desert, it doesn’t matter. Nuclear just works.
It uses Universal Blue, whereas Kinoite uses rpm-ostree.
Aurora has a bit of DE customization, which is arguably more polished.
It also leans heavily on Flatpack/Flathub.
The other difference that I’m aware of is Aurora handles updates automatically by default, whereas Kinoite is a manual process.
To be clear, I haven’t used Kinoite at all. But I have Aurora on a gaming system that I use as a kind of TV gaming console, and I’m setting it up for my elderly parents that get upset when an icon on Windows changes (that’s how tech illiterate they are).
Aurora Linux + KDE
It’s an immutable version of Fedora with flatpack support.
This is actually a good setup for the vast majority of people.
enterprise type programs
The idea of elderly people using windows only programs
I don’t think these two groups overlap much, if at all.
the general hodgepodge that Libre Office is
What’s hodgepodge about LibreOffice? I use it daily in a corporate job. There are entire governments that use it.
Does BlueSky utilize Activity Pub?
Again, you have it wrong.
where nuclear weapons are used so frequently that the average person will need tablets
All it takes is one nuke to go off and winds to carry the fallout to relatively stable countries far away.
But let’s say that you are dealing with some level of societal collapse from nuclear war. You still need iodine. Without it, it won’t matter if you secure food, water, and shelter, because you’ll get some aggressive cancer and die anyways.
Regardless of the specifics, iodine is important.
That’s not true at all. Fallout can be carried by wind over very long distances. And even a small amount of radioactive iodine accumulative in the body can be an issue.
her Holocaust denial remarks
That tracks, because she’s been going on about flat earth crap lately, and the Ven diagram of racist and flat earthers have a large overlap.
Actually the flat earther diagram is almost completely enveloped by the racist circle, specifically the “Nazi” variety of horrible people.
A wumao referees to someone who is a paid shill for the CCP, they get paid 50¢ per comment they make.
Sure, that’s a valid point. But it becomes entirely invalidated when you consider that most of that electrification comes from coal plants they’re building at breakneck pace. They’re averaging two entire coal power plants per week. That’s over 100 coal fired power plants per year. They are building more than ALL other countries combined.
Then there’s the consideration that your argument only applies to the very few places they can actually do that, like in major urban cities. Everywhere else in the country they still have to rely on ICE transport out of practicality.
And this also ignores that their renewable initiatives (outside of EVs) are giant shams.
