I am running FreeBSD with MATE.
Firefox seems to be using about 1.5GB - just running slashot.

49% of how much memory?
I am running FreeBSD with MATE. I am using firefox with two tabs open. I am also running jellyfin, and some other background stuff. And I am also running a terminal, and looking at "top" process.
My total active memory being used is 675MB. I have a total of 12GB Ram, and I have about 5200MB free.
Firefox does seem to be quite a hog.

Solar panels are the end product. If wars were to be fought, it would over the materials used to make solar panels.
BTW: I think almost all solar panels and wind turbines are made by China. Other countries could make them, but it would not be easy, and it could not happen overnight.

You mean the bird blenders that are also killing whales and dolphins?

As I understand it "renewable energy" means clear cutting forests and burning trees for energy.
Per unit of energy produced, burning trees is far more polluting that burning natural gas, or even diesel. Then you have the destruction of the forests.

Seafile would probably work. Simple and fast. Not overloaded with useless, often broken, plugins.

I can hardly believe any sizable establishment would use NextCloud.
NextCloud might be okay for home use, or a very small business.

Don't get me wrong. I am not complaining about the idea open source developers being paid.

But very few people use open source, in any serious way. If they had to pay for it, a lot less people would use it. Eventually, it would not be worth maintaining.

There are some apps that only run on Windows. Also, Windows is the standard in government and corporations.

I have all that already in FreeBSD. But, I guess it's all about the apps.

IMO: this would be so much better than being bedridden, or needing constant care. He was active and in good spirits until his final days.

Before emissions controls, they'd try to disperse soot and ash over wide area to minimize the impact to individuals, but natural gas burns a lot cleaner than coal, and doesn't really produce soot or ash, so it's not really a concern.

The only thing that article says about it is that the local government did a study and concluded that it wasn't an environmental hazard.

Think about it this way: why would a gas turbine mounted on a trailer emit more pollution than a fixed facility? It's burning the same fuel, with the same emissions controls.

Ok, but we should still be able to add that to the grid. In reality, it is much easier and cheaper to build a 1GW power plant than it is to build a 1GW datacenter.
