Und selbst dann sind ihre leblosen Körper nur so günstig, weil die EU Millionen Milliarden an Steuergeldern in die Tierhaltung investiert. Andernfalls wären pflanzliche Alternativen überhaupt günstiger.

Oh wow, so the schematics are published, the repair procedure is documented and you can 3D print the parts yourself? Sign me up for the open source shower!

Oh you thought open source meant sharing your secrets? Nah it’s actually more common to see secrets in the code in closed source projects than in projects that were open source from the start. In open source software, you need to set your own PP_SIZE as an env var or provide it in a .env file or keyvault.

Red Hat (Enrerprise Linux) & HashiCorp (Terraform) closed the source of their products in different ways, also fucking over their community of clients and contributors, though their reasoning seems slightly more sane than “no more free money, aaargh!”

The “paper billionaire” argument does not hold: https://github.com/MKorostoff/1-pixel-wealth/blob/master/THE_PAPER_BILLIONAIRE.md

To Nole Skum it is a joke. He has a total wealth of about $270 billion. $250 million is approxinately 1/1000 of that.

So divide your wealth by 1000, think of how you would feel losing that due to a rare event, while you knowingly took the risk. Does not seem like a big deal to me at all.

How does the connectivity work? Is there some sort of Cloudflare-like VPN-ish gateway that they host?

Depends on your point of view, you could argue that’s just the delivery costs.

Es wäre “Whataboutism”, wenn pflanzliche Milch überhaupt nichts mit Kuhmilch und Klimawandel zu tun hätte. Aber tatsächlich entscheiden sich viele Menschen für pflanzliche Milch, weil sie ihnen eine sehr ähnliche Erfahrung wie Kuhmilch ermöglicht, bei wesentlich geringeren Auswirkungen auf das Klima. Es ist durchaus eine Antwort auf das Problem der klimatischen Auswirkungen der Kuhmilchproduktion.
