Europe community on dbzer0. Intended to be a place to discuss European news, politics, or just general topics from a European perspective. Since this is on dbzer0 expect the community to lean more leftist-anarchist but a wide range of views are accepted here (within reason).
Rules:
1. No Bigotry or Hate Speech
Any forms of Homophobia, Transphobia, Queerphobia, Racism, or Ableism will be met with swift and harsh action and will not be tolerated here whatsoever. Bigots will be banned immediately on-sight. This includes apologia of it.
Trying to be politely or intellectually bigoted i.e. "Just asking questions" won't be tolerated.
2. No Zionism
Any forms of Zionism or Zionist rhetoric will not be tolerated here, this includes Zionist apologia, accusations of antisemitism towards anti-Zionists, or blatant denial or downplaying of the genocide towards Palestinians. Any attempt to uphold or prop up the IHRA definition of antisemitism, will be treated as Zionism.
Anyone engaging in Pro-Zionist sentiment or apologia will be actioned in accordance with its severity.
Note: Trying to find loopholes or whataboutery to see what is or isn't genocide denial or Zionism will be treated as a violation of this rule. Don't test us.
3. Stay Civil
Please maintain civil discourse in the community. Do not engage in arguments with others, name-calling, or insults. Note that calling out bigotry or Zionism is not considered an insult. In heated arguments users are encouraged to or even required to disengage failure to do so will result in mod action.
4. No Misinformation
Spreading of misinformation intentionally in this community is unacceptable and will not be tolerated. Spreading misinformation hurts the credibility of the community and can mislead people sometimes in dangerous ways. Users who intentionally post misinformation as articles, comment answers, or in attempt to win arguments will be actioned swiftly.
Note: This includes Russian and Chinese propaganda. Users with a history of such posting will be banned on sight.
5. No AI Content
Please do not post articles or content primarily created using generative AI. Generative AI content may contain misinformation or be lower quality and thus is discouraged. Posts and comments featuring it will be removed. However this community does not allow or tolerate Anti-AI trolling or hostility and users who engage in such behavior will be actioned for it, additionally Anti-AI trolling violates Rule 3 and often Rule 4 so it is generally unacceptable already.
Note: Rules 1 & 2 may be subject to preemptive mod action due to their severity, and they apply to a user's entire post history. Not just this community.

Europe, US midwest here.. look out for your neighbors and yourself. We've got some similar heat over here at the moment, AC not quite adequate in my living situation either.
I cannot recommend enough some of Ben's (@nighthawkinlight on youtube) 18C/65F cooling pack recipe (1.2L water, 240ml Sodium Sulfate (Na2SO4), 60ml table salt (NaCl), and additionally some 20mls xanthan gum to gel). It's so cheap that I've given a bunch of small packs out to neighbors and gym friends and everyone has been equally fastinated by them.
Small pack for my hat or shoulders, lasts some hour or so. Pillowcase, I want to make a blanket soon, but I've also made some small towel like ones that I've used outside extensively. This 115F/46C heat index weather is fucking miserable, 80% humidity, made more certainly worse by local microclimate. Im lucky to have a nice basement to retreat into, but I genuinely believe this simple recipe could be life saving. Cost me some 20USD total to make with simple freezer bags, but I invested in a vacuum sealer also for my food, but the bags have shown to be durable, especially resealing multiple times in the food preserver.
I don't mean to conpare the fucking US's situation to yours, but I feel the global wealth disparity will affect much the same regardless, and the warming still won't stop for anyone now. Be prepared, care for each other.
