The problem with disabling the memory overcommit is that then the RAM is wasted. That can be worked around with setting up swap but then the disk space is wasted.

Every investment is somewhat of a ponzi scheme. With stocks or real estate you also rely on the fact that the economy will function in the future and future generations will buy them back from you.

Modern cars are horrible. I recently discovered that all new cars sold in the EU constantly beep at you for supposedly speeding, even though the system doesn’t work well, and it has to be turned off every time you start the car.

The reality is that expensive electricity in the EU is by design. The EU ETS imposes heavy taxes on fossil fuels (and they are set to increase even more), which in turn causes the price of electricity to rise. Fully renewable electricity ge

It's usually so much more expensive than an air source heat pump that makes it completely not worth it.

I think it's impossible to calculate at this stage since there're no fusion power plants which actually produce net power.

I see an increasing number of chinese cars where I live in Europe. Though almost none of them are fully electric ones (BEVs here have different licence plates), they're plug-in hybrids at best.

I don't support it because it doesn't work (at least for me, I guess there's some middleman in the grand scheme of things who is profiting off of this). E.g. Texas has a high share of renewables too without carbon taxes and w

Electricity generation from natural gas is intentionally made more expensive by the EU ETS. It could be cheaper if politicians wanted it to be. Tbh coal definitely should be restarted and used more, there's more reliable supply for coa

Air to water heat pumps (which usually are used in Germany) should be quite cheap nowadays. Maybe they tried overcharging you or a significant rework was required?

The main problem with IPv6 is that it is different from IPv4. There's SLAAC, there's no ARP and there're also some other differences. In the end, it's simpler to just not bother.

Studio apartments seem like a better option. Also, from a property manager’s perspective, you generally want to minimize shared spaces because they’re a pain and annoying to deal with.

Isn't it also the fact the almost no one wants to live like that? The expectations has changed and there's probably little demand for such type of housing.
