"It just works"

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Either way, assuming I can find a large stick or rock, I'd have enough patience to do a manual physical uninstall and get back to my solitude. So I think I'd be pretty ambivalent.
I guess smashing the shit out of windows would be slightly more satisfying - but that's not really the main reason I'm alone in the woods.

And yes - before you ask the obvious follow-up - I have smashed the shit out of a thinkpad in the past, they're not as tough as people say they are; it's mostly false bravado. Don't be afraid to stand up to the bully (ymmv).

I think your argument works if someone is stealing the beef.

If they are buying it then that is directly funding that "90%".

"clean energy" . . . :)
this idea of "clean" electricity seems to makes people think they can use as much electricity as they like even when its marginally all generated with gas or coal..

Like a 30-50% "clean" grid can magically double in capacity to accomodate every cnts tesla charging and new heating loads without more fossil fuel gen.

"oh that doesn't matter it will be 100% renewable soon."
" oh what no, I didn't mean you can build a nuclear powerstation there, can't they build it in india or china or africa and ship the power to us?"
"no matter, we'll invent cold fusion soon"

The difference between average vs marginal generation is something that a lot of electricity proselytes want to handwave away in order to keep selling energy intensive lifestyle and aspirations.

Its much harder to sell people a modest life, or a lower energy inensity - or a lower population density.

The narrative suffered another public embarrassment when what appeared to be an ordinary bike lock was offered as evidence that sinister individuals had infiltrated the city’s elite campuses.

this close they always look like landscape.

In rural Scotland (at least in Fife , Perth +Kinross) I noticed a lot of
60mph-40mph - 20mph - 40mph-60
sort of slow down buffer zone type things around villages.

Much better than 60 - 30-60 we normally have in England.
And noticeably quieter too.

I hope they carry on with that.
I think Wales did 20mph in all rural villages.

Fuck England.

We have a problem with testing.

"Management" identifies problem "testing" adds word "lead".

Issues job advert, recruits, problem solved?

. . . third "testing lead" in 2 years . . . "it's so hard to recruit"
