Thanks, I couldn't find any info on this, thought maybe I missed something. I'll just stop using one of them (forgot my info while abroad).

or delete one?

The Wayback Machine let me down again. Until I waybacked the Wayback Machine.

I don't think this is something that can be won, really, other than in a politics and power influence sense. Not to take analogies to where they oversimplify things, but this is similar to M.A.D.; we share the damage we do, locally, then globally. For us, the shortcut to energy production is in the industry already in place (with its centuries-old history and political power). Until that shifts, we'll keep going the same direction and worry about long term when we have to. Solar energy production is still in its infancy when you compare it to fossil fuels production, in China or anywhere else. I suspect the high output of actual solar panels are more (or just as much) a symptom of market than environmental concerns.

Looks like the new arms race is about digging your own environmental grave.

That was much better reasoned than the article.

Do you know which translation/edition the article's version of the quote is from? I've looked through 3 so far, can't find it in this exact wording. Not trying to nitpick, just annoyed I can't find it. The tone and meaning of the English translations changed a couple of times drastically.

The Nietzsche quote is not only out of (very meaningful) context, but also from a poor prewar translation, as far as I can tell. Even so, anyone even slightly familiar with Nietzsche's tone should see the irony of appropriating this in the article's reasoning.

Very nice. Will use you in the near future. Congrats for doing something like this early on.
