don't forget the methane produced by the reservoir.

Thees sort of things do need to be evaluated quantitatively, though. The question is not whether hydroelectric dams are as pure as the driven snow, it's whether they provide a useful alternative to other forms of carbon intensive power.

It isn't for nothing. It's a big bet that the environmentalist are wrong, and Earth won't spiral into a "climate" disaster. Imagine, the feeling of satisfaction when one ideological enemies are beaten into submission, forced to grovel and beg in the street for nanoSatoshis. Won't that be fun?

And if the climate predictions are correct, and billions of people die of heatstroke, and poverty, and famine, and war, at leat you'll have made some money in the process. Isn't that the most important thing in life?

Harmonys were very useful for integrating used equipment. No original remote? No Problem. Just see if the logitech database has the proper codes before placing a bid.

I have encountered four issues, however.

It doesn't send bluetooth, and some devices use bluetooth instead of IR. Bluetooth is of course much more flexible.
It's not compatible with macs. macos 10.15 gleefully broke all sorts of things
There are limitations on how many devices can be used, which can be annoying if you collect old formats.
CEC breaks Harmony's internal state. If devices can switch other devices off or on, Harmony can't reliably power the system down. CEC is unfortunately required for ARC-- which is how I get my 4K streaming devices to send audio to my 1080p stereo.
