Die CDU lässt sich ihre Parteitags-Armbänder von der arbeitgeberfinanzierten INSM sponsern. Weitere Lobbyverbände sponsern den Parteitag und auch bei den externen Redner:innen gibt es eine Schlagseite zugunsten der Wirtschaftslobby.
Warum das fragwürdig ist 👇
Die CDU räumt der arbeitgeberfinanzierten PR-Initiative INSM mit der Aktion einen besonders sichtbaren Platz auf ihrem Parteitag ein. Die Delegierten und anwesenden Journalist:innen kommen nicht um die Lobby-Werbung herum.
Die INSM ist von den Metall- und Arbeitgeberverbänden finanziert. Der Name der Initiative allerdings verschleiert, woher das Geld kommt.
Wie viel die INSM und andere Sponsoren ausgeben, bleibt geheim. Das wird Glück bald durch neue Transparenzregeln ändern. Gut so!
Problematisch bleibt: Finanzstarke Lobbyakteure den Parteien weiterhin in unbegrenzter Höhe Geld zukommen lassen. Das wollen wir begrenzen auf 50.000 Euro pro Spender:in/Sponsor im Jahr.

Hi @matt 👋
Yesterday in #LibrePlanet chat I named the #Makepad project, a real adorable 😍 effort that's still lacking on the #a11y side, i.e. could do with some #AccessKit on board.
Today I found out that Makepad is apparently part of a #Rust appdev effort, called #Robius. Another project here is #Dioxus.. also in for @accesskit #accessiblity support.. maybe. 🤔
Robius looks like a very loose conglomeration of independent projects. Maybe AccessKit is even a fit to it?

Verkehrswende in Äthiopien
In Äthiopien gibt es ein Importverbot für Neuwagen mit Verbrennungsmotor. Hintergrund seien vor allem wirtschaftliche Überlegungen, berichtet "Der Spiegel". Das ostafrikanische Land produziere dank großer Wasserkraftwerke viel billigen Strom. Benzin und Diesel müssen dagegen importiert werden.

Pretty common mistake when building desktop computers is power supply unit (PSU) dimensioning.
We want to have as high power conversion efficiency as possible so the electricity you get from the wall outlet and pay for is actually delivered to motherboard, etc instead of just converted to heat.
Easiest by looking for high "80 PLUS"-rating, from "white" at at least 82% efficiency at 100% load on 230 volts but no efficiency required at 10% load (idle, most time) then 85% efficiency at 50% load while highest level "titanium" PSU must be 90% efficient at 10% load while 96% at 50% load and 94% at 100% load.
The problem?
Often people way oversize PSU capacity, compared to what the computer is even capable of using.
Pretty normal desktops use like 300-500 watts at peak, but people see extreme builds at 1300 or more watts for current most power-hungry CPU+GPU and figure "I'll margin for if I upgrade" so get 1300 or more watt PSU then go years without upgrades happening just throwing away maybe 15% of power input to PSU, which builds up to a significant cost per year (I believe $20-30/year in low power cost USA) discarded to pure inefficiency which you could've spent on something else than just more climate change.
Should have a margin, ofc, but reasonable.
Good "80 PLUS" rating matters most though.
