    Sweden tells Germany: Reform your electricity market for power cable approval
  • Every Village thinks it's a wonderful Holiday destination, burying the lines IS costly and inefficient and we pay all for it with interest through the Network Fees.

    We have Transmission lines Here too, and it's still a very liveable Environment.

    Yes it's NIMBYism

  • However, regional price disparities persist due to weak transmission links between Sweden’s north – home to its vast hydropower resources – and the more industrialised south.

    Blaming Germany for their own inaptitude, as you would expect from far right Morons

    (To be fair we have the Same Problem in Germany with NIMBYs and Powerlines)

    The distributed replacement for Sci-Hub
  • Wrong. Annas Archive doesn't Accept Uploads directly themselves (at least <10.000), and they recommend STC too.

    To upload academic papers, please also (in addition to Library Genesis) upload to STC Nexus. They are the best shadow library for new papers.

  • www.bbc.com Denmark boosts Greenland defence after Trump repeats desire for US control

    The huge package is announced after the president-elect said US ownership of Greenland was a "necessity".

    geteilt von: https://lemmy.zip/post/28641169

    > The Danish government has announced a huge boost in defence spending for Greenland, hours after US President-elect Donald Trump repeated his desire to purchase the Arctic territory. > Danish Defence Minister Troels Lund Poulsen said the package was a "double digit billion amount" in krone, or at least $1.5bn (£1.2bn). > He described the timing of the announcement as an "irony of fate". On Monday Trump said ownership and control of the huge island was an "absolute necessity" for the US. > Greenland, an autonomous Danish territory, is home to a large US space facility and is strategically important for the US, lying on its shortest route to Europe. It has major mineral and oil reserves.

  • Taking the TGV from Strasbourg to Montpellier still gets you a Lot of painful slow legs inbetween. And they aren't very comfortable for long journeys.

    Also the French Global Price system with Random timetables and mandatory Reservations Sucks badly

    Public transport use soars in Montpellier a year after becoming free
  • That’s because it’s convenient to get there by public transport

    That was my Point, people who drive right now don't use Public Transport because it isn't convenient for them.

    Instead of burning funds to make it free for People who are perfectly capable of paying 300€/Month for their Car, you should use it to expand the Networks (New Train/Tram/Bus Routes) and augment their quality (Longer Operating hours/ Higher Service Frequency) and let them participate a Bit in the Costs, so you can improve the Network even further. (If they we're able to pay 300€/Month for their Car, they can certainly pay 50-100€ for a monthly subscription too)

  • That does not mean it didn’t reduce them.

    Yes that's explicitly what they meant. Most new passengers were people who were Walking or cycling before, but not a Lot of people who were driving before

    Then you say the tram in Montpellier isn’t good, like what on earth does that have to do with anything?

    That you should Invest the funds used for free Public Transport in improving the Network and it's quality.

    Don't get me wrong, you should still offer cheap/free Tickets to People who need them, but nothing wrong to collect additional funds to finance the system

    The Countries with a high Share of Public Transport in the Modal Split like Switzerland have one Thing in Common, an extremely dense, Frequent and reliable public Transport System. The price isn't Just that important,

    Just because someone has a different opinion than you, doesn't make it "Propagandist".

    (I travel exclusively by Public Transport and I would love to have the Same quality as in Switzerland, but here everyone wants stupid cOmPeTiTiOn and lOw pRiCe Bro, and the quality in Germany is horrible. Montpellier is also not great, I've visited many Times for Holidays, and during the day it's okay, but the Tram Service terminates way to early in the evening. The prices were also already very cheap before it went "free")

  • Gas Stations pay for themselves. Otherwise its also tax based.

    Still completely free public transport is not a good idea instead of investing in a high quality offering. (Higher Frequencies, Better Vehicles, more dense network). Because People usually take the car because it is more convenient, its always more expensive than public transport.

    And in the past, free offerings have just diminished people walking or taking the bicycle, but no shift Car>Public Transit

    Magdeburg attack offers AfD fertile ground despite suspect's backing for party
  • East Germany doing East Germany things.

    I mean they also don't believe the normal media anymore. They will just parrot what Putins Propaganda spoonfeeds them in their Telegram Groups and "Alternative Media"

    There has also been hostility towards journalists over the past few days, especially after some 2,000 people joined a protest by the far right in Magdeburg on Saturday night. The Association of German Journalists said there had been aggression and threats against the press and appealed for greater police protection.

    Those people and areas are a lost cause.
