So what is going on really? On the one hand we have this action in Germany. What has caused it in the first place?
Second, how does this factor in with EV? Meaning, how is the entire industry doing so poorly when we are in the cusp of EV world and battery tech and smart grids.
So frustrating. I kind of want a general overview. For example I’m aware of the EV pressure with China for example. But then with the changes is regulatory, how haven’t companies like Volkswagen not side-stepped to adapt?
I’m probably oversimplifying, don’t throw things. I’m trying to grasp the big picture.

At first I thought that was part of the transcription too and my brain was trying to make some sense of it. And for some reason threw at me:

Space Engineers. 👩🚀🛠️
There was just dropped an update, and those come only like every six months and thus are big ones. Also next week is their anniversary I think, and they teased something is coming.
Anyway, it keeps alive that child in me who played with LEGOS, except now as an adult I get the simulation of the environment and the brutal laws of physics like gravity and energy/fuel, and logistics, automation, etc. Mods make it even more expansive and customizable.
It’s the one game I come back to over and over again through the last decade. I take breaks of course, months at a time even. But I never stop wanting to play with Space LEGOS!

It would be fun to watch you, by I totally understand. I don’t stream because I play only one game really and it’s so nerdy. Ahaha

So we should be paid what, 3x more? Or am I too reductive? I’m trying to understand how much we SHOULD be getting then (in 2020 btw), and now more actually, as shit got expensive af thru Covid and is still lingering today.

- Comment on Student Debt Has Reached $1.3 Trillion, compared to just $243 billion in 2003 5 months ago:
I’ve been saying this too. Even praised Biden for what he has done. There is so much more to do though. Simply removing the debt (still should be done) won’t address the deeper issue of colleges and loan providers gouging students every possible way they can. Year after year tuition and book prices go up, value and quality goes down.

- Comment on Is it just me or do Lemmy communities tend to skew left wing? Why might this be? 5 months ago:
Education.
No for real, a lot of right-wing thinking comes from just parroting disinformation and being in their own echo chamber circles.
Educated people are more likely to ‘lean left’. Why?:
Environment: Higher education institutions often emphasize critical thinking, questioning of traditional norms, and exposure to diverse perspectives. This can lead individuals to adopt more progressive or liberal views.
Diversity: College and university settings are typically more diverse, exposing students to different cultures, ideas, and lifestyles.
Rationalism: Educated individuals may place a higher value on scientific reasoning and empirical evidence, which can align more with policies and positions typically associated with the left, such as support for climate change action and public health initiatives.
Perspective: Higher education can lead to an understanding of economic inequality and systemic issues. Educated individuals might support policies aimed at reducing inequality and improving social welfare.
Career: Many educated individuals work in fields such as academia, healthcare, and social services, where left-leaning values like equity, public good, and social justice are prevalent.
Generational: Younger generations, who are more likely to be college-educated today than in the past, tend to have more progressive views on social issues, such as LGBTQ+ rights and racial equality.
- Comment on Study finds 1/4 of bosses hoped Return to Office would make staff quit 5 months ago:
I have the opposite problem. When I work at the office so much time is spent ‘harmonizing’ with the other workers, I get a lot less done on those days than if I had worked from home and was able to focus on my tasks.
But some people can also listen to heavy metal while working, whereas I prefer silence. 😁
