We have 999 problems and migrants ain't one

Yeah, that's true. But their production seems to be almost fully for their internal market. Which shows how crazy the scale of the green energy transition within China.

China accounted for 65% of global wind capacity in 2023

So basically, China also installed twice as much wind power as the rest of the world in 2023

It's similar with solar, but there China has a bit lower percentage of the demand, and more of manufacturing. -> It is a major exporter. See, e.g., https://www.iea.org/data-and-statistics/charts/solar-pv-manufacturing-capacity-and-production-by-country-and-region-2021-2027

Great search, thank you!

Smart! I use Joplin and Koofr for shorter notes. Switching to LibreOffice Writer from Word, and shared files, for longer texts. But all depends on how you like to write ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I think the difference is that, while both Russia and Germany are federations on paper, Germany is much less centralized.

• to the best of my knowledge, 3.5% would be military spending, and 1.5% could be other "defence" spending (as others have already written).

Still, not fun with the 3.5%/5%. Overshooting, typical for "weapons as war repellent" strategy (and unfortunately, expanded military often does not want to stay idle...)

Nice, but still, use GOG when possible:

Money is increasingly needed by the federal treasury, which spends every third ruble on the war

Woah, 1/3rd of the budget is a lot.

LanguageTool as cloud storage?

So cool! I would also love to see a day train from Malmö/Stockholm to somewhere in Germany ^‿^
