Don't forget Nuclear and Fossil fuel subsidies have been going for decades and they still can't produce low enough costs without them. the new UK nuclear site is cost each UK household about £30+ per year in subsidy (£2.b per year for 30 years works out quite a lot)
Do you buy anything that depreciates and needs maintenance and topping up with fuel like a car? If you are able to install your own system as you suggest, you'd probably save a lot on labour so it'll be a lot cheaper. The UK average usage is about 4kWh and you can get that installed from £5000-8000 and expected break even is 14 years. People will spend that much on double glazing and the ROI on that is very low.
We still have to wait until they get their act together and invest in a suitable storage solution to store all the power produced by things like wind (which does work at night) then there will be less reliance on power from abroad
did you read this part of the link for Fingerprints of the Gods... "Members of the scholarly and scientific community have described the proposals put forward in the book as pseudoscience and pseudoarchaeology"
And Carl Sagan didn't have much positive to say about the second one
"Young disrupting technologies will often find ways around the existing tax structures. That is well and good in the short term, but long term they need to payback for their disruption and yes, that very much includes helping paying for the transition of coal workers to new opportunities." - surely that will be covered by a sales tax like the one applied at the pump otherwise the government is going to lose a lot of tax revenue when EVs become the mainstream.
"The renewable entrepreneurs who have benefited by this disruption also have a moral responsibility to help provide their resources and abilities to help these disrupted communities and displaced workers build a better future" - i don't see why the wealthy mine owners and fossil fuel power generators shouldn't pay for the retraining as they didn't learn from history, stuck their heads in the sand and did not modernise. The renewable entrepreneurs will automatically retrain the ex-miners if they apply and get a job with them.
it is far superior to what was before otherwise it wouldn't have been adopted. Stop going on about the "fanboy" stuff especially when you say things like "beta software due to Lennart's ego", why does someone have be accused of being a "fanboy" when responding to "the sky if falling because of LP or any of his software" , release often has always been the process to get stuff out, sometimes it has bugs.
whats poor about its logging? it far more comprehensive than any other system, journalctl is your friend. You may have a had one bug, so what, bugs happen. No need to think the sky is falling over one bug
thats what tools are written for, speed and consistency. whats the point of continually re-inventing the wheel? awk, grep etc are also dedicated tools to doing a job but when there is a better way, you take it or you might as well go back to pen and paper.
because no-one was maintaining console kit and Poettering actually wrote a work around library for Gnome to work without sysyemd which they decided not to use
maybe you need to do at least some research because others think different. there are too many reasons for anyone to type them out here. if you don't research what it does better, you won't ever know and remain in "ignorance is bliss" camp. Don't rely on the trolls here and other forums.

have a look at Denmark, they are getting close
and coal and gas plants don't work if you don't feed them coal or gas

yawn... there is nothing like an old joke, and that is nothing like an old joke
China and the EU seem to be looking to teaming up for a moon base, so US and Russia will team up too or will US join China and EU?

you are expecting far too much from all the armchair experts to actually read something that might expand their knowledge.

not if the price is set at the lowest that can be found in the EU. if they set it to the highest then yes, and they'll lose most of that market.
post some real evidence for your claims

let me send you either a pen and paper, slate and flint chisel, or do you prefer new when the older stuff was so simple

"I have a problem that would be trivial to fix if systemd didn't swallow the log message. " eh????? have you not found journalctl yet?
I can use tab completion on opensuse using your example, maybe i'm doing it wrong
machine:/home/sd # systemctl start openvpn-hit tab-
openvpn@ openvpn.target
machine:/home/sd # systemctl start openvpn

To me typing 'journalctl --since 09:00 --until "1 hour ago"' is a lot easier than `journal -b0 | grep something | awk ....' and needs no testing
