I had mentioned that Russian freight trucks weren't doing well, but... things are getting uglier.
Large numbers of them are getting out of the business entirely, or trying to downsize their truck fleets due, in part, to the high key rate and general unprofitability of trucking in Russia under current circumstances.
They're even facing high incidences of non-payment by their clients!

Wer wissen will, was so schwierig an der Energiewende ist, sollte einfach mal versuchen, so ein Mieterstrom-Modell für Solaranlagen zu verstehen.

Und das soll die neue, vereinfachte Variante sein, bei der man kein Unternehmen mehr gründen muss, um sich selbst den Strom zu verkaufen.

«Kritische Infrastruktur–Bund muss mehr in Cybersicherheit investieren:
Das eidgenössische Parlament pocht nach dem Xplain-Skandal auf verbindliche Cybersicherheitsprüfungen wichtiger Produkte und rennt damit bei der Landesregierung offene Türen ein»

China strongly limits Russian access to tech in mech. engineering, aviation, and microelectronics.
"...they openly tell us: if you want to get some technologies, buy the product as a whole. We say: no, at best we need components that we'll replace soon. They tell us: we understand this, but aren't going to do it at normal prices. Here is double the price - please.&…
