the man who decided to end german nuclear power production getting a seat in gazprom doesn’t inspire confidence in reality-based discussion of this subject

they also last decades and are cheap to run with extremely low carbon emissions

most of costs are costs of construction. french and koreans don’t seem discouraged and some plants in japan and china were built under budget. finland energy supply has large fraction of nuclear and they have extremely cheap electricity

it’s more turbines, not sure if it’s the same site or another

i’m looking at electricitymap rn, sicily is 79% renewable with 65% solar, other regions at least 50% renewable too, on country level 35% solar and 54% renewable (+ 7% nuclear (french)). this not that far away from spain (51% solar 60% renewables + 15% nuclear). it’s not bad, you’ve got a bunch of solar and wind farms. in poland there was for many years very restrictive law on wind farm distances from populated areas, it got better but buildout is not as large as it could have been and so reliance on coal is still there. no such restrictions on solar

your guess about what he actually did is as good as mine. gold salts are toxic and corrosive so it would be pretty obvious early on. small gold particles would occlude capillaries so that would be very obviois too. there is colloidal gold and gold nanoparticles are probably not very toxic. that discoloration could be some infection or irritation from whatever injected thing (not medical advice)

oops all Brassica

cremieux (real name jordan lasker) is a massive racist https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jordan_Lasker

I’m guessing the walls are retaining some heat.

Guesstimate your own numbers, but the way my flat is built walls have heat capacity some 150x more than air inside. (reinforced concrete building, walls/floor/ceiling counted as half if shared with other flats) You will need to run a lot of air through, at at least couple C temperature difference, to make a dent in that

This will be good for renewables. Every solar inverter and wind turbine needs this stuff

This is why i always place all important info in Supplementary Information which is almost always free of charge. except on sciencedirect. fuck them

they need something like two trillions for entire business to make sense, doesn’t mean that they’ll get it. zitron says the entire sector is worth something in tens of billions in revenue (not profit) per year

photovoltaic panels are just giant diodes you can run them in reverse and every panel gets that 0.6V voltage drop like any other silicon junction

Yeah they’ll make medbeds any day now. Or maybe it’s for their internal use only, because they’ll noticed bubble and don’t like what they’re seeing. I wonder if they’re foolish enough to vacuum up all data from companies that used their chatbots to come up with something hoping that no one will notice

Every single bit of that is so fucking stupid, they’re replaying crypto playbook 1:1. Spot an industry that they think they’ll manage in, then try to leech off of it in purest display of rentseeking imaginable, coupled with techbros folk belief that since programming is soo haard, then as they can do that they can do everything else too, all with no plan, no labs, no specialists onboard or faintiest idea what they’re doing

akshually 🤓 it’s a six years long cycle (2 years + 3 years) but under no circumstances you will deprive village’s assigned reactionary of their soapbox. without church, who would be running political interference??

for the last three years and a bit, silicon valley has promised eradication of everything from writer to filmmaker as a career. after all this i don’t think that devs get to hitch their wagon to artists for sympathy points

sounds like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pig_butchering_scam it’s in early phase so far

still 84% to go

keep up, chinese are waay ahead of you https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prayer_wheel tell the president about narrowing prayer gap immediately
