I was with you until you mixed nuclear into the post. Chernobyl was a series of human errors and bad decisions. We need nuclear to fix our energy issues and slapping the name onto a separate issue is dishonest and makes me doubt your intentions.

It there ANY reason that a ghost fleet exists other than avoiding EU law?

The title is wrong. The money is not taken from the russian assets but rather interest earned from those assets. The original assets are left intact. FTA:

The European Commission has disbursed an additional 1 billion euros ($1.1 billion) in Macro-Financial Assistance (MFA) to Ukraine, to be repaid with proceeds from frozen Russian assets, the commission announced on March 20.

Except moving production to US means giving away the only thing that keeps US interested in protecting Taiwan.

We should start by subsidizing plant based materials instead of oil based. We're literary paying extra to make more plastic.

That's beside my point. They talk about the difference between photosynthesis efficacy with and without MPs, but don't explain how the MPs affect the process.

 

In the screenshot you can see that there is currently one rising community overloading my post feed. I assume this is happening to many users. I understand that I can block the community but that's not really what I want. I think that this problem could be solved by introducing a mechanism to dynamically limit the number of such posts based on user preferences. For example I could set this community to appear less often and an algorithm could apply this preference to my feed order. I know that the proverbial algorithms used by major social networks are frowned upon. That happens for a good reason - they are opaque, proprietary and often show signs of bad intention. They are used for political and social influence, to silence opposing voices and a whole array of other nefarious goals like playing of people's fear, outrage, etc. The thing I'm suggesting would have to be transparent by design and fully optional. That's a social media "algorithm" I'd like to use. I'd like to hear what other people think about this idea.
