The Diff?

Any idea why your QR code looks so different from the original? Diffferent size maybe?

Spotify might as well be doing this themselves already to avoid having to pay all those annoying artist

what’s iffy is smaller AC generators like wind mills

Not so iffy for bigger wind turbines, these also have significant inertia due to the mass of the rotor spinning (with large mass moment) and grid codes demand active grid stabilisation in most countries.

My dog will jump when I accidentally step on stick so that it suddenly moves, he has never seen a real snake. Non moving sticks that look like a snake? Doesnt react at all, I guess that routine was causing too many false positives and has not been propagated

Maybe it is part of the plan? Making a new palm oil plantation on conveniently already bare land instead of having to destroy old growth forest? I can imagine that some customers have sustainability clauses in the contracts saying that they will not buy oil from recently cleared land so the solution is simply to wait a but longer sobitvis no longer recently

I have an old mac mini running nextcloud on Ubuntu, I did upgrade memory and plug in external ssd

Is missing “as described by PR department” and “as told by journalists”

It is also an incentive to shift demand when there is plenty of renewable power: charge your car , do the laundry and so on

Of course it is a chlilling discovery, it has been under ice…

I’m on renewable crack, you should try it sometimes. I promise it is only slightly addictive.

My point is that nuclear is only good for base load unless there is storage and if you want to use renewables to cover peak demand then you also need storage. but if you have storage then there is no reason not to use 100% renewables

You can also chose to use 100% nuclear, either enough to cover peak demand (and throw away the rest when not needed) or in combination with storage. It just going to be so much more expensive…

Nuclear is not an option since it can not be scaled up and down fast enough to follow changes in demand (or the changes in very predictable renewable output) , so you’re left with pumped storage, grid interconnectivity , and demand shifting until we can cheaply use the excess in renewables to make synthetic fuels.

Use ddrescue to copy to a working disk, if I remember it will try a number of times and eventually skip the broken sectors so that at least you have a working filesystem on the copy.

Great! When will this be included in teams? So that I can deepfake all meetings

My winows 11 work laptop , fully managed by IT the department also has Xbox stuff installed…

Don’t worry that’s just me… Really nothing to worry about , I promise
