What exactly is facism about naturally (non-enforced) lowering birth rates?

While lower birth rates may lead to economic issues on a medium term (too many old people VS. too few young people), it's probably one of the most efficient measures to combat climate change. Less people comsuming ressources means less pollution and hopefully also less competition and conflicts for said ressources.
Even though I'll be probably one of the many old people one day that the society may not be able to support adequately, I think that it's positive news for humanity.
From my perspective, the best way to deal with a shrinking population would be a shift away from capitalism in its current form. Infinite growth, bigger, faster etc. is not a realistic and definitely not a sustainable target.
We should focus on the basic needs to make food, housing, care etc. affordable for everyone with as few working hours as possible, so that less people are able to do the job.
Um Geld geht es fast jedem und überall. Das größte Problem sehe ich eher darin, dass der Fokus immer nur auf kurzfristigen Gewinnen steht. Solange die Landwirtschaft halbwegs geeint so weiter macht, wird das vermutlich auch aufgehen. Die großen Gewinne jetzt sind privatisiert, wenn irgendwann die großen Ernteausfälle kommen, wird man dann vom Staat gerettet. Die Landwirtschaft als ganzes ist einfach too big to fail.
Falls dir mal nicht der Sinn nach selbst machen steht, probier mal Nirwana vegan ("Vollmilch" Nougat) oder Nirwana Noir (Zartbitter Nougat, auch vegan) von Rapunzel. Wirklich lecker. Wenn du exotischere Sorten suchst, kannst du auch mal nach Vivani schauen, da gibt's einige vegane Sorten.
For web applications you can often reverse engineer the internal / non-documented APIs using the development tools of your browser or network traffic analysis such as Wireshark. As a last resort for software without APIs you can always use robotics tools and automatically use the GUI as a user would do. You could for example check out the Selenium framework for Java.
That's new to me. For me so far it was sufficient to follow this part from the linked article...
Or, if Windows is already installed, from either the Sign on screen or the Start menu, select Power (Power button icon) > hold Shift while selecting Restart. Select Troubleshoot > Advanced options > UEFI Firmware settings.
An entry-model will cost CHF149 per month (about €156 or $169) to lease starting this summer
While I highly appreciate smaller cars or alternative car-like vehicles, this feels quite expensive to me. You can get full sized cars (mostly fuel based though) for less than that. Of course, it's not fair to compare a small start up with the special deals of the big manufacturers but I think the majority of people will do just that.
With the base 5.5kWh battery it’ll go about 100km before needing a charge or even up to 177km max for those opting for the larger 11kWh battery pack.
While this consumption is less than 50% of the most efficient EVs known to me (Ionic, Ionic 6, Model 3, e-Up), it still feels like a lot for a microcar of that size that runs only 45 km/h. An e-bike consumes approximately 0.5-0.7 kWh per 100 km/h.
As you're currently using Windows on your PC, you might have to do an extended reboot. By default Windows skips the UEFI/USB step in the boot sequence to make Windows boot slightly faster.

I'd say that heavily depends on Software A and B.
If you want to actively push data from system A, you need to check for system-specific enhancement options for that system. E.g. is there a way foreseen to add custom plugins, call webhooks, etc.
If you want to actively want to pull data from system B instead, you have to do the same exercise as before but for the other system.
Such interfaces (if available at all) are often vendor specific, so one software may use Java for addons, another only Python etc.
In more complex integration scenarios, you often work with a so-called middleware that acts as a translator between different data formats, protocols etc. Such middleware software often already has pre-built triggers or prepared integration routines for very common software. A commercial example that is mostly meant for end users would be Microsoft Power Flow or if you are looking for FOSS you can check out Node Red.
I don't think there is a lot of 'integration knowledge' that is generally applicable independent of the software in use. If you want to start building a toolbox of skills, you could start looking at SOAP, REST, XML, maybe learn a scripting language such as Python etc.
Sind ja nicht alle, die kiffen, zwangsläufig regelmäßig auf ein Auto angewiesen. Verbot durch die Hintertür würde ich es also nicht unbedingt nennen. Wer weiß, vielleicht ist die Cannabis-Legalisierung in dieser Form am Ende der entscheidende Baustein für die Verkehrswende. Einerseits darf man nicht mehr fahren nach Konsum und andererseits wird man viel entspannter, wenn im ÖPNV mal wieder was nicht ganz so läuft, wie es soll. 😁
From my perspective mails are federated. If I want to explain federation as a concept to someone I always use mail as an example because everyone can write to everyone independent of the provider, you can selfhost it easily, you could move from one company to another (if you use your own domain), protocols are all FOSS.
So at least it's an open and distributed system. What would be missing for it to count as federated?
I read through the article and still can't see how my post is related to facism. If we assume a number of X humans with an average environmental footprint of Y that leads to an overall footprint for humanity of X * Y.
If we want to bring that number down, this can by achieved by lowering either of the factors. If you want to cut pollution by let's say 50% with a constant polulation, it goes along with harsher cut backs for the individuals' lifestyle. Looking at the current discourse, such cut backs are highly controverse and measures in that direction are rarely accepted ('they want to take out meat', 'they want to take our cars' etc.).
If the number of humans decreased by 25% due to a naturally lowered birth rate, it means that the individual pollution must be lowered only by 33% instead of 50% to achieve the same result. I would argue that less individual impact will lead to a higher acceptance for a environment-friendly humanity.
If I wrote 'kill the poor' or something like that I'd get your point but I just said that fewer people will have a positive impact on nature. Which is not facism but a simple fact.
By the way. Your liked Wikipedia article also warns about the term 'ecofacism' being misused by the far right to discredit any form of pro-environment statements. So, please think twice before if you really want to use that term and call random people fascists.
