Meine Frau & ich haben auf dem #Sofa zwecks #Unterhaltung häufig unsere #Notebook am auf dem Schoß.
Grundlegendes klappt auf beide Geräten aber #Streaming & #Gaming kann ich vergessen, da zieht sie mich mit dem #Tuxedo #Pulse gefühlt um den Faktor 100 ab.
Von der Laufzeit her übertrifft ihr Gerät mein #Acer #Travelmate "nur" um ~ das Doppelte.
#SpaßMitSchrott hat eben auch Grenzen.
Manchmal, wenn ich lieb frage, darf ich auch mal das Notebook & Updates installieren oder so 😅

Wir haben eindeutig einen #MaximaleventualbedarfsPKW. Ein #Kombi mit #Anhängerkupplung.

#Sofa, #Schränke, #Urlaub mit Kind und #Hund, 3m lange Rohre … erprobt.

Im #Alltag natürlich nur für 1,x #Personen genutzt, also völlig #überdimensioniert. Wobei … bei der immer mehr zunehmenden Aggression im #Straßenverkehr ist es angenehm eine #KnautschZone um sich herum zu haben.

Ich vermisse manchmal die Zeit mit #CarSharing - je nach Zweck das passende #Auto und spontaner Wechsel, wenn man es bei #Ikea mal wieder übertrieben hat.

Ach so, bevor jetzt alle eine falsche Vorstellung haben, es ist (nur) ein #Skoda #Fabia.

Quote by MEE:
"Jan 31, 2025
A displaced Palestinian man returned to the ruins of his home in Gaza where he recognised its remnants by a sofa his parents had purchased 30 years ago. The sofa was one of the few recognisable items left among the widespread destruction.
“My mother refused to replace it; it was still good,” he said. “Now the house, the neighbourhood, everything is gone.”

openknowledge.fao.orgThe State of Food and Agriculture 2024Uncovering the true cost of food is the first step in making agrifood systems more inclusive, resilient and sustainable. As The State of Food and Agriculture 2023 revealed, agrifood systems activities generate significant benefits for society, but also have negative impacts on economic, social and environmental sustainability. The quantified hidden costs of agrifood systems amount to around 10 percent of global gross domestic product. Therefore, strategic action is necessary, and all agrifood systems actors ‒ from producers and agribusinesses to consumers and governments ‒ have a crucial role to play.While transforming agrifood systems would yield a net global gain, the benefits and costs would be unevenly distributed among stakeholders and countries over time. The State of Food and Agriculture 2024 builds on the findings of the 2023 edition, delving deeper into the use of true cost accounting assessments of agrifood systems and identifying policy interventions aimed at transformation. Using updated global datasets, the report confirms previous estimates of the quantified hidden costs of agrifood systems and provides a detailed breakdown of the hidden costs associated with unhealthy dietary patterns and non-communicable diseases for 156 countries. These findings are analysed through the lens of six agrifood systems categories to take into account various outcomes and hidden costs that require different policy interventions. Case studies offering in-depth assessments of country, local and value chain contexts illustrate the economic, social and environmental impacts of current practices to guide policy interventions. Crucial to all contexts is the need for inclusive stakeholder consultations to inform interventions and reconcile power imbalances and trade-offs.
