We have enough minable nuclear fuel to sustain our current power needs for a couple billion years. And with enough technological gains, we can extend that to well past the time that the sun has died. Hence, it is safe to consider it renewable.

Doesn't invalidate your point, but I just wanted to point this nugget of info out.

Not true. The prices are higher because less fuel is available. You can't burn what ain't there.

Plus, the increased fuel prices mean alternatives become more attractive. This stimulates investments into these alternatives. Hence the price increase speeds up the transition to better technologies. This is why an emmision tax could work.

For the laymen: update operating systems, browsers, and apps. And avoid doing sensitive stuff over Wifi networks other than your own (or from people or organisations that you fully trust, and the network must be password protected). Once this mess is cleaned up, the latter will be safe again. All you need to do for the cleanup is updating everything.

Neither does the use of an LLM mean you do not understand thoroughly what you submit. He doesn't give a crap how the code was created, as long as you, the human (I hope), understand what you are submitting and can take accountability for it. You are still responsible for whatever crap comes out of an LLM, the same way that you are responsible for what comes out of the compiler. Doesn't mean you shouldn't use compilers or LLMs.

He probably likes that. Knowing someone is watching over him, means it is safe to do his business.

Similarly: Skyrim has other potions than health, mana, and fortify restoriation potions. But no one will be able to tell you what they do.

In Dutch, the word "kanker" can be used as verb, noun or adjective. Example: Die kanker hoer kan opkankeren met die kanker van haar. Which best translates to something like: That fucking whore can fuck off with that shit of hers. Except that the Dutch version is wayyyyy more rude and inappropriate.

It at the very least got popular in the Netherlands. This was due to a youtube upload from 2008 of a Dutch student who was proud to be the first person to swaffel the Taj Mahal. This resulted in more people swinging their dicks against various monuments.

So if you see a popular monument, remember that it is likely a Dutch person filmed themselves while wacking their dick against it and put it on youtube somewhere.

Do you mean the Dutch word "swaffelen" or "zwaffelen"?

Just put cheap beans in the packaging of the expensive ones. Same shock value for them, less guilt for you. And remember, the performance is everything here; you have to sell it for maximum emotional damage.

I recommend you take a look at Breeze. It is a dating app in the Netherlands (and expanding).

When you match, you get a date planner (after paying for the date). No chatting allowed. A real date or nothing. That is the premise. You pay per date, and you get your money back if the date is cancelled or they don't show up. So the app earns money from sending people on real dates. People that don't show up or cancel dates are penalized by the algorithn and they loose badges on their profile. This is good for Breeze, who wants people to go on dates, and good for the users, who want to go on dates.

Chatting is allowed a couple of hours before the date, but this is not intended for conversations, only for practical purposes.

As a result, profiles also matter much more. For both sides. You litterally need to sell yourself, because if someone swippes on you, they may need to pay 10 euro for the date if you also swipe on them.

You also get only a handful of profiles each day. Which makes sense, because you can limit the number of concurrent matches/dates, hence the app is better off distributing the matches, rather than piling them onto the 10% hotest accounts.

This also means you can't spend more than 15 to 30 minutes a day going over 5 tot 10 profiles.

Meanwhile, the app can provide free accounts, where people only need to pay for actual dates, hence the entry barier is lower than Tinder, where men won't get seen without paying. Meaning it is easy to get a userbase going.

I suspect the hard part is the logistics of setting up the dates. A spot in a bar or coffee place needs to be organized for each date. If that is no option, the users are asked to choose a meeting spot (talking to eachother via an intermediate person.

Make a small espresso in the way you know your target victem/snob prefers. Including the use of the right small cup, the most fancy beans you can get your hands on, and the best espresso machine you can afford. But instead of handing this small cup of goodness over to the exited snob, you poor it into a pot. The bigger the pot, the better. Then add lukewarm water until the pot is full. Now stare your victem in the eyes, and deadpan tell then that you now have drink-ready coffee for the whole party.
