I mean, weren't they still wearing their robes during class in PoA and later films? Even in philosopher's stone they wear sweaters and pants during christmas break.

I have recently gone to replay Dishonored. It worked great, so now I'm continuing with Dishonored 2, which I had abandoned after like three missions the last time. It's loads of fun although D2 crashes from time to time for me. No big problem with the frequent saving I do anyway.

'Ask Electronics' or 'DIY' might be helpful communities. Good luck!

Spannenderweise eine sehr andere Wahrnehmung der Regierungsarbeit als ich sie habe. Die FDP ist quasi für jeden großen Flop in dieser Regierung verantwortlich. Das fängt damit an, dass sie trotz kleinstem Stimmenanteil in der Ampel das wichtigste Ministerium abgekriegt haben, nur weil sie selbst der Meinung sind, dass sie so viel von Finanzen verstehen. Mehrere Haushaltskrisen und regelmäßige Unstimmigkeiten waren die Folge. Auf europäischer Ebene hat die FDP die Ampel lächerlich gemacht als sie völlig unsinnig das Verbrenner-Aus blockiert haben, angeblich weil die E-Fuels ja so zukunftsweisend wären. Beim GEG hat sich natürlich die ganze Koalition nicht mit Ruhm bekleckert, aber nur die FDP hat lautstark die internen Konflikte nach außen getragen und sich damit meiner Meinung nach völlig unprofessionell verhalten, das Gesetz verzögert und die Beliebtheit aller drei Parteien in den Keller gezogen.

Even if crime wasn't a problem, we should be allowed to protect our culture. Not every country needs to be like USA.

Culture always changes. The culture of your country has not been like this since the dawn of time. There is no good reason, why it should stay just the way it is right now, only because "that's the way it always has been" in your memory. Also if the newly arriving people make all of your felloelw countrypeople abandon their old ways, maybe their was something wrong with those traditions to begin with. If you are only worried because the new people will bring their own culture and stick to it, that just adds to the culture and doesn't take yours away.

And I'm not even sure why I have to defend myself.

I personally think one needs really good reasons if one chooses to defend xenophobic policies and puts millions of people under the general suspicion of spreading crime and violence while nearly all of them are just trying to get away from the war and violence in the countries where they are coming from.

I'm on board with 'living on Mars makes no sense' at least until we really run out of space here, but we have much more pressing issues before that. But I doubt Venus being more suitable. The high atmospheric temperature of Venus (~460°C) is pretty harsh and it is much more easy to heat than to cool stuff down. The high pressure also makes getting there difficult with the hard entry. Mars at least has a similat rotation period to earth.

The key is to do both because they are principally coupled and nothing happens as long as consumers and corporations just point at each other and use it as an excuse to keep on going like before.

Of course you are right that the focus should lie at changing CO2 output at the producer side because the influence is much more focused there. N my opinion it is also dangerous arguing that the companies only supply what the consumers want because that statement is based on the consumption and is biased too much by what the companies offer and at which price. Consumers usually socioeconomically do not have the choice to buy a product at 1.5 times the price, even if they would prefer it for environmental reasons while these companies have immense profits and can and must afford to reduce and finally stop emissions.

To add to your last two paragraphs: even if the elected parties enact the more environmentally friendly policies, many voters will be unsatisfied with that because they imagined a solution would pop up where they themselves would not be required to make sacrifices. I imagine memes like this could be a reason for that as they imply that corporations emit greenhouse gases totally decoupled from the people's consumption. I fully demand that corporations take more actions to reduce emissions although it will lower their profits, but I also ask (mainly) the privileged people who live in the global north to accept necessary reductions in lifestyle and consumption as a necessary consequence.
