Ja, klar, aber wir sollten jetzt trotzdem nicht vergessen, die gefährlichen und hässlichen Windräder entschlossen zu bekämpfen!

@nwymat @Sargon_of_Akkad You do know that 30kw is enormous right?

@energy_charts_d @ENTSO_E Es ist letztlich egal, ob es an der Momentanreserve oder Blindleistungsregelung lag. Beides sind nur Symptome zu weniger konventioneller Kraftwerke am Netz.

Im Abschlussbericht von @ENTSO_E zum Stromausfall in Spanien und Portugal wird eindeutig festgestellt, dass die Momentanreserve nicht für den Stromausfall verantwortlich war. Eine höhere Momentanreserve hätte den Stromausfall nicht verhindern können.

Hello, Europeans. The first thing you need to understand about the rant I'm about to utter is that I'm not MAGA, not a Trumpite, but a libertarian who has in the past nevertheless been strongly supportive of US military presence overseas. Because I want the wars that defend this country to be fought in somebody else's country, as far away from me as possible with a nice big ocean in the way.
Also relevant: I have a history of having lived in Europe and traveled there extensively. I was at one time bilingual in English and Spanish, and have been passably fluent in Italian and French as well. I could probably still find my way around London and Rome and central Paris reasonably well. So if you're tempted to tell yourselves that I'm some kind of parochial American hick, abandon that hope.
All that was set-up. So that, when I tell you that almost the entirety of the US electorate, not just Trump supporters, is increasingly fed up with your shit, take me seriously.
We've been cleaning up your messes and keeping the sea lanes open since 1917. And that was for you, not us - we, being very close to resource self-sufficient, don't need that investment so much. We've spent enormous amounts of blood and treasure on keeping you safe. We risked nuclear hellfire on our own cities for nearly 50 years to keep Soviet tanks from rolling through the Fulda Gap.
Even since the Cold War ended, we've subsidized your socialist-playpen welfare states and disastrous immigration policies by taking the need to maintain militaries more effective than a sack of wet farts off the table.
Now we've come looking for help keeping a bunch of rabid Islamic fanatics from getting nuclear weapons that are a clear and present danger to all of you even more than they are to us, and what do we hear?
"Waah! It's another Republican president we don't like, just like the last half dozen of them! So we're going to sulk in a corner, except when we're biting at your ankles with crap like airspace restrictions."
No. No, we're not going to take this anymore. It's not just conservatives who have had enough, it's moderates and people who used to be strong supporters of liberal internationalism.
Our citizen's willingness to pay higher taxes to protect you was upward-bounded by your gratitude. Now that we know your gratitude has effectively gone to zero, so does our willingness.
Don't expect this to change if the Democrats take power here. They are much less liberal-internationalist than Republicans now. While they might make mouth noises that soothe you, their overriding concern is the gaping, insatiable maw of their income transfer programs. They'll sacrifice subsidizing Europe's playpen socialism to feed their domestic version in a heartbeat. And there is no longer any significant Democratic constituency to argue against that.
In truth, three decades after the Cold War ended there is no American constituency at all for the massive subsidies you get. It frankly surprises me they lasted this long, that we were this patient with your cowardice and your bitchy whining.
This moment has been a long time coming. It's not Donald Trump sinking the transatlantic alliance, it is absolutely you.

@esrtweet @Sargon_of_Akkad We're not treated as allies any more. Creating a global mess with tarrifs and wars just to let the others clean up. Frankly for us it all looks random. But also the Americans get screwed. The Administration and people close to it earn money with insider trades. Double standards!!
English

What? We didn't blow up Nordstream. That was some Ukrainian ex-Special-Forces people.
Anyway, you're being silly about the geopolitics. The Administration wants Europe to take responsibility for policing the Straits. That's not denying energy to Europe, it's telling Europe to pay its own fucking freight.

@nwymat @MartinWaltherDD If that is as far as your intellectual capability goes, so be it

@always_bad_news @MartinWaltherDD If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck

@MartinWaltherDD Du bist ein schönes Beispiel dafür, wie jemand seine Ängste in die Dinge reinprojiziert.
Man findet ähnliche Modelle (sowohl Mantel als auch Frisur) bei sozialistischen Militärs, genauso wie bei amerikanischen der 50er, 60er und 70er Jahre.
Gute Besserung 🙂

@Scorpioman68 @H0H0v The electrician on the right (B) is safer. The rubber boots insulate him from the ground, breaking the potential circuit for electric current through his body, even without gloves. A risks grounding if the gloves fail.

@Porkchop_EXP Allegedly it was signed off. But we all want to know how this can be legal

Trying to understand how something like this was possible in Switzerland which is known for its orderliness and following rules.
The basement was reconstructed in 2015 - have no authorities checked or signed off on this mess?

@HansMahncke I'm going to bet 90% of the deaths can be attributed to this. This is a deathtrap situation, and never, EVER would be allowed in any assembly occupancy construction in any U.S. jurisdiction. You can't even have a conference room large enough to hold 50 people with a single exit:
