Compared to (parts of) the US, we might aswell be.

Why the downvotes
I for my part downvoted because it’s just false equivalence. Cutting down a part of a commercial forest is pretty far from completely cutting “every single forest” in Sweden.
Is it great that trees were cut down without replanting? No.
Is there a perfectly cleared and infrastructurally connected plot of land in Brandenburg that Tesla could have used instead? Also no.
Your comparison was basically the same as “We sell a plot of land to Elon? Why not just sell every plot of land to him then!”.
- Comment on If "Master/Slave" terminology in computing sounds bad now, why not change it to "Dom/Sub"? 2 months ago:
Fair enough. Im in devops and the first thing I thought about was Jenkins, where “server” and “agent” fit quite well.
I dont think master/slave is that good of a naming scheme for fault tolerance either, since the “slave” doesnt do work so that the master doesnt have to, but it’s rather an active/reserve kind of thing.
But I also admit that using different terms that fit best for every usecase would only cause more confusion than good.

We’re using server and agent, but im also a proponent of “captain” and “crew”
- Comment on Ukraine Must Pay Germany Back For Damage From Nord Stream Bombing: Bundestag Lawmaker 2 months ago:
I am in fact German, I just wanted to make a joke that pointing out AfD being russia-financed nutcases will yield very little effect in a community like this one, because this sub is just as much a russian propaganda asset as r/conservative is over on reddit.

This is c/conservative, a right wing, russia friendly, populist community
- Comment on What games popularized certain mechanics? 2 months ago:
As the inspiration yes. But Minecraft hunger games was the first to do it in gaming while also reaching maybe not more people than movies, but definitly spreading to communities that the movies and books didnt reach (e.g. i didnt watch the movies until well over ten years after I had played my first game of MC hunger games)

I couldnt find a release history for the Minecraft mod, however according to the following article, it was released about a year before the original PlayerUnknown mod for DayZ / Arma 3.

Minecraft Hunger Games, although a mod, is responsible for the Battle Royal hype aswell.
So Minecraft caused Fortnite twice - once as a survival crafting and building game and then as a Battle Royal retaining some of these elements

You only read the headline, didnt you?
- Comment on Las Vegas' dystopia-sphere, powered by 150 Nvidia GPUs and drawing up to 28,000,000 watts, is both a testament to the hubris of humanity and an admittedly impressive technical feat | PC Gamer 3 months ago:
We shouldnt call them energy credits, but rather indulgences.

They’re also very much present on the app
- Comment on So, how many lemmynsfw.com communities have you blocked? 1 year ago:
Disabled nsfw for now, before that I tried blocking all the creepy celebrity-communities. There’s one for every third rate female celeb under the sun and the guys posting there are spamming every picture with a hint of cleavage or leg.
