No an overly helpful suggestion maybe, but I used to look for servers hosting the cars service manual whenever I had issues. But that was in the early 2010s, so not sure where to look for them now.

Wtf is the Australian civil war?

I like the first half of your comment, but the second is really hard to swallow. I guess you meant “severe” or “debilitatingly” painful/disabled life, and I don’t think you meant malice in what you’re saying - but I know some people living with disabilities that would see your comment as calling them worthless.

I feel this is like the least controversial thing to happen in Austrian politics in the last 10 years… There is a long list of shit before this one that the ÖVP should be sued for…

India is a world leader when countries are ranked by population. It’s time will come, as the middle class grows and imports from other nations increase, but that is not happening in the next 5 years in my opinion.

India’s inability to remove the caste system leads IMHO to an equivalent of middle eastern country’s inability to allow women a meaningful place in their society, and is a massive hindrance to reaching its potential socially and economically.

On the positive side, absolutely has the best cuisine in the world

The full, current list is: Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Iran, Egypt, Ethiopia, and the United Arab Emirates

Adding Turkey and Hungary would lead to: SHITBRICEEU, which I find amusing :)

I don’t normally blindly down such comments, but without credible explanation and evidence of what you mean, I made an exception here.

Looks like bananas will be going up in price tomorrow :)

Seconded. One of the first foss projects I donated to :)

It would become normal if more people started riding to work and requesting it.

I understand this to mean: “there are no suppliers for some parts outside of China” rather than “my margins are affected, waaawaa”

Like try and buy clay that hasn’t been processed at some point through China, or any piece of machinery that doesn’t have a component inside which originates in China. Hell, even try go 24 hours without using a Chinese product.

This is why many countries are looking at re-implimenting protectionism, because we have reached a situation of non-control, regardless of domestic wants.

I don’t think I agree with their (Siemens Energy’s) stance, without a Long term solution to change the issue, but I understand it’s place in the grand scheme.

How did you get that from the article?

The 70 second video is the dumbest thing I have seen in a long time. Looks like it was made by some 12 year olds in windows movie maker on Windows XP. It’s like 50 seconds of aircraft taking off and missiles flying then 10 seconds of fire gifs over Taiwan…

news.com.au is like the daily mail level of trash in Australia.

Thanks for the suggestion, I started looking into LaTeX during my studies but never went through with learning it. Others have suggested Scribus, is there a reason why you might opt for LaTeX over that for this case?

DigiKam and it’s associated plugins are what I use to sort, manage and store photos. It does have facial recognition option too, but I have not used it until now.

I noticed that as part of the LaTeX description, thanks for confirming! I will take a look at scribus.

Well colour me shocked!

Austria is very reliant on Hydro power, which normally peaks as snow melts during spring (i.e. April). It will be interesting as climate change shifts the timing and flow of water in the country, but positive to see a growing hydro and wind build-out too.

I am going to absolutely take this at face value without checking any of the text because anything that is so well written, must be true! Thanks, I learnt a heap from this.

It appears to be a widely quoted official figure and have no insight on if it is realistic. I am also aware that this does not consider the considerable environmental impact of the disaster, nor the economic cost to clean up the mess.

My comment was more relating to the facts about the current state of renewables.

The 2 options this comments OP provides at the end are what I mostly agree on, where we either go 0 carbon now and accept nuclear (with its flaws) as base load, or continue with carbon intensive tech as base load and continue to build out renewables on top.
