I had to go for Nvidia last time as I needed a smaller form factor GPU which AMD didn't seem to have at the time, but hopefully will be able to get back to AMD.

Agree that ASUS appears to have gone a little downhill.

Ethanol is just comically inefficient solar energy in c/[email protected]

Mate, everything on earth comes back to solar energy eventually, that's not news, or even a helpful way of thinking about it.

How easy is it to produce an absolute butt load of efficient solar panels which won't just degrade in 30-40 years? How many tons of rare earth minerals do you have to mine to make that happen?

Now how easy is it to get farmers to grow corn, and stick 10% ethanol in your fuel?

Obviously it's not anything like a complete solution, but it's an easy first measure to take.
