MMIX is created by Prof. Knuth purely for expressing his algorithms. Back then C++ and Java were the latest, hottest sh… (and would soon be outdated themselves). Prof. Knuth didn’t like C++ and general programming language fashion. So he invented MMIX. It was never meant to be implemented in real HW.
I don’t know whst’s wrong with the other CPU architectures you listed. I especially wonder why Sparc wasn’t used more.
I don’t know of an industry company who builds truely libre hardware. Only half-libre if you are willing to call it so.
Which region are you willing to work in?
Windows -> GNU/Linux
KDE/Gnome -> JWM
TV -> Reading books
Twitter -> Fediverse
Coke/Cola -> Tea/infusion
Amazon -> Local bookshop
I myself eat less meat and plan to finally reduce it to zero. And I think it matters both for the environment and the animals.
But how does plant-based diet reduce waste (as the diagram seems to imply)?
I like the diagram/picture with the two ladders.
We do have the green “taz” newspaper in Germany. But the mainstream media, especially the “Bild”, do indeed a bad propaganda to the masses. I don’t like general cop-bashing and such but I feel the urge to vomit when the politicians talk about economic growth. Or when our chancellor says we can’t save the climate with abstinence/refraining (“Verzicht”). In contrast I think we can’t save the climate WITHOUT abstinence/refraining!
Hehe, ok. I think it is not done enough to stop global warming. Maybe my writing “It is not ignored” gave such a wrong impression. But we have a climate initiative in my town’s politics, including the mayor. We have newspaper articles about climate change, and I don’t mean about the “Last generation”. We have the city’s supplier for energy, busses, water etc. doing climate actions.
Edit: We have a climate protection minister. So it is NOT ignored.
“100% have ignored” Yeah sure, then you don’t read newspapers. It is not ignored.
As @sexy_peach@feddit.de said, there is “Last Generation” here in Germany, too. And as you said about Italy, here they are doing more harm than good for climate protection. People who are already convinced that we need urgent climate action like the last generation. But they don’t need to be convinced because they already are. And the people who are not fully convinced, they get very angry about the climate movement. In Berlin an ambulance on duty was hindered by the “Klimakleber” (climate gluers) who glue their hand to the street.
Dell and Ikea have already used it. :)
It costs more than plastics. So the politics are on duty here.

I’ve read about producing packaging and items from funghi (mycels). Maybe that is an alternative?
Yes, they give empty promises. Liars! And Biden is even worse than Trump in this special case.
I think there are only these remedies:
I think only law will work.
If the ecological costs would exist as financial costs for the companies, that would help a lot. Right now it is cheap to throw away poisonous waste, ship stuff from far away countries etc.
And I think you hit an important point when you said that the average consumer doesn’t reflect much.
Next steps? Hard to tell for me. We need to convince the climate change deniers/ignorants. Because we don’t need to convince people already on our side. (But maybe I’m wrong.) I think demonstrations, sit ins and occupations are not very helpful because they don’t persuade people, they rather make them hostile to us. So I’d love to hear new ideas from “The Third Force”.
That webpage is not only about stunts and leaders’ promises.
XR UK thinks that there’s no more use in small street activism.
But I’m not sure how “The Third Force” is gonna succed against passive established people.
The motivation change might come from a) situation like sleep, nutrition, noise, concentration b) psychichal disease/illness c) your personality
It could be depression, psychosis, ADS but also a “scanner personality” etc. For mental health only a psychiatrist is competent. For personality a psychologist (or maybe a therapeut). For general health (body) and situation you yourself are the person which is responsible.
And yes, I have that, too. My personal solution (not neccessarily the right one for you) is to carefully select a few projects and concentrate on them. How this helps? It prevents me from hopping from one thing to the other.
Try cycling the exam topics for a change/versality.
One more comment: If you aren’t able to concentrate or focus on the exams then get professional help soon!
This looks a bit shady. Im not gonna use a weird OS tweak. Maybe if some sound source (like a magazine) reports about it.
I just stumbled over this project:
