One can dream, but the full suspension of the EU-Israel Association Agreement would at least put some economical and political pressure on Israel.
I'm optimistic that the missing signatures can be gathered and the thresholds per country can be reached.
edit: I just realized that not all, but only 7 countries need to reach their threshold.
This has already been done.
Less than 118.000 signatures are missing. This initiative will succeed.
I wish, the USA did consider bombing Israel, until they start behaving.
Isn't it strange how Trump always does the wrong kind of crazy things?
Maybe more than 100 billions of dollars even, depending on whether you "only" consider the 1,148,800 BTC that have never been spent or the 1,814,400 BTC that have been awarded to Satoshi in total.

I wholeheartedly agree!
I installed Bazzite because I wanted an easy solution for my laptop with Nvidia GPU - now it's my daily driver and gaming is only a fraction of its job.
Wouldn't an AMD RX 9060 XT with 16 GB RAM be nice as well if you're hunting for good speed/cost options?
One could argue that fossil fuels are a kind of chemical battery that store solar energy from aeons ago.
But in a strict sense you're right and that's why I'm keen on having more batteries in the wild, because there are (more and more) times, in which wind turbines and solar farms need to be throttled or shut down, because their continued operation endangers the grid by providing too much electric energy.
So more batteries -> more renewable energy can be captured and stored/buffered!
Yeah, like let's complain about lithium having a limited supply (which can be recycled until the cows come home) while burning fossil fuels all the while - which are also limited but gone after having been burned. The cherry on top is burning them pollutes the air and causes climate change.
Aside from new mining techniques and new battery technology there's still the option to improve the situation by moving people and goods onto rails and operating the trains directly by electricity and not through batteries - a technology already available. It just needs to be implemented at more places.
I'm aware that this is no solution that fits all situations, but I'm damn sure a lot of situations would be improved by having more rails/trains.
The real world begs to differ: https://www.livescience.com/technology/electric-vehicles/china-puts-a-sodium-ion-battery-into-an-ev-for-the-first-time-it-can-drive-248-miles-on-a-single-charge
In the end it's a matter of price, reliability, usability, etc.
And while sodium based batteries have a worse energy density (space and weight wise) than lithium based batteries, they seem to have advantages in other areas (eg. no. of charge cycles, price per kWh, no thermal runaway, basically unlimited amounts of cheap sodium available).
Spot-on!
Alas, I've written my last comment before I read yours.
Do you think it's easier to
