So, because stuff happens which doesn't require cars we should design our lifes around cars? I'm sorry, but I don't manage to follow your reasoning here?

Absolutely, I'm not US and I have no experience with megacities, but I am trying to find ways to build cities that better match our needs going forward. I don't know if the American car dependent suburbia is what is needed either.

As for parks in dense cityscapes, I've listened to clever architects who've discovered statistical regression claim that parks are more valuable per square meter the smaller they are... And while true in and of itself, it asks the question, how small is the minimum for them to be usable? Humans that experience greenery (even arranged) daily are healthier both mentally and physically. Where is the cut off?

Ouch. And how many of those are children?

Edit: What? Has nobody reflected on the fact that urban environments are for grown ups only?

Jag tänker att det är typ 3 separata processer som ska till som kan överklagas. En sådan process, t.ex. om en betongfabrik på Gotland kan ta upp till 7 år innan högsta domstolen inom resp. Område kommer till beslut. Kommer ett första spadtag innan 2035 är min bedömning att det har gått fort!

We have the excess electricity already, but I'm not yet at the legally required amount of solar panels.

At work we are investing in energy storage, both batteries and heat storage and looking for more solutions.

I'm looking at hydrogen, because it's known tech and I dream of finding a way to use it in a more stable chemical form for storage.

This is very interesting! And that fuel could be used either to make electricity, heat or a combination!

Yes you do and you are still doing it. It is two different arguments, both are true, regardless of if one of them tracks with you or not. One is an argument about the need to act (climate change only care about absolute numbers) and the other is an argument about how to act (we need to focus on those individuals that emit the most). Both are true and a part of the bigger picture.

On a side note, it is also important to be inclusive. Consumption isn't the only way to address emissions. An even bigger possibility lies in those able to make decisions on the means of production. They are fewer, spend a lot more money, but are harder to find. Most of them works at corporations, though.

You are confusing an economic argument (where do we get the most bang for our buck) with the ecological argument. Continuing your allegory, that would be a bunch of arsonists ready to torch both towns to the ground. That must not happen.

I agree that energy security and geopolitical considerations are behind China's all out expansion, I've said so before, but in this particular case, I wonder if you might have overlooked an implied /s?

So? Are you saying that you are pot committed 3 cards in? How many cards do you run in each rig?

If half the price can't convince you, you aren't ready to switch no matter what.

Has monolithic Vs chiplet been confirmed for 9070? A narrow buswidth on a much smaller (compared to previous I/O-die) technology would mean a whole lot in regards to surface area available for the stream processors.

That's because you already have top notch gear:) For everyone that's not already at 7900 level performance 90% of the performance at 80% of the price is great.

For those that are able to spend 80% of the price, that is.
