Yes, _net_ exporter. But we are often exporting at low or even negative prices.

France is supplying electricity to all of its neighbors and they’re trading in the same market. Thus, if electricity is scarse and expensive across Europe, French wholesale prices rise as well. FWIW, the French government forces EDF to sell

That doesn’t mean this particular political claim is far-right ideology. If only the right-wing parties support nuclear power, does that turn nuclear power into something rightwing?

No, the reason is that Japan is working on a nation-wide hydrogen strategy with hydrogen produced in high-temperature gas-cooled reactors. > https://www.meti.go.jp/english/policy/energy_environment/glo...

Yes, the baseline for “armel” is ARMv5T. But IIRC we made the switch already for Buster.

Even if the battery has 100% efficiency, the amount of electric energy one would need to store for a single day, on top of the normal power consumption, is just way too much. Nuclear reactions have the highest energy density of any of the t

Looking at the version history, support for version 52 ESR ended in September 2018. Since that version was the last supported version with XUL, the lack of XUL after that might be one of the reasons.

Compulsory military service actually has not been abandoned in Germany, it’s still written down in the constitution. It’s just put out of order for an indefinite amount of time.

You can still get drafted as a fire fighter if they don’t find enough volunteers. Also, the German constitution still forbids military drafting of women (Artikel 12a, (4), GG), so there isn’t a true gender equality in Germany.

LCOE is not what determines market prices but supply and demand. End customers pay market prices, not production costs. I don’t have any advantage as a customer when electricity is super cheap when it can’t be produced on demand.
