I see where you're coming with that, and in principle, some of the points you make I would clearly share under different circumstances.

But to me, even with the side effects, rapid rollout of green tech (even if its production is not kept to the best standard) beats slow incremental growth with good standards in place, given the urgency with which world requires it. After all, even poorly produced Chinese options very much do offset their footprint compared to the alternatives.

There are some points for concern, such as the use of lithium ion batteries, for example, but Chinese companies also think ahead and implement alternative options - in case of batteries, they increasingly work with sodium-ion instead.

As per "unfair" subsidies - I'd rather urge all countries to go all in and compete on those, rather than complain about those who implemented them. Subsidies for green tech are essential to secure our future, they boost the green industry and expedite its expansion, and they should only be seen as a good, not the evil.

It is good, period.

Local manufacturing is politically advantageous and may employ some people at the same time, but that's where benefits end.

Europe didn't reject Chinese face masks during COVID-19, and Europe shouldn't reject Chinese solar during a climate emergency.

Solve that first, and political struggles later.

Interesting! May I ask why you use USB port on Synology for Ethernet connection instead of ports on the back? Are they 1gbit?

Why so much rage?

Yes, Hyperbola is very ideological and super strict, but it was always meant to be that way - to provide a system that works in some way and at the same time is as ethical and "clean" as possible. Some people value it over anything, and for them, Hyperbola is a good pick.

True. Never meant to say they use Linux exclusively; thanks for clarification anyway!

Ironically, even Microsoft uses Linux in its Azure datacenters, iirc

Except this time the Unix-like took 100% of the market

Was too clear this thing is just better

You sure tapped into a particular frustration of mine :D

WoW has already done something similar in Warlords of Draenor, iirc, when you could make and develop your outpost, but wasn't it considered to be mostly a failure because players were there and so common locations were more empty?

Thanks! Learning more every day

Also, beautiful design, and probably not bad for a touchscreen (terrible for mouse though)

If I understood it correctly, in this context it means that the icons normally retain the original logo and color scheme, while incorporating them into a single style.

It is very obvious they meant it draws no power from the grid. And it doesn't, indeed, acting fully autonomously.
