Yes. One thing to remember is that Boomers are retiring en masse and older Gen-X are saying 'screw this' and retiring early because it's not worth the hassle of working any more. So it's not just people being laid off but also people deciding they don't want anything more to do with the awful work culture of the modern world.
They could charge a subscription so other "Smart Glasses" users will see you wearing pants. If you don't pay then the other users' glasses will automatically AI-remove your pants whenever the glasses see you.
Although I guess some people might consider that a feature rather than a bug.
Yeah, I have bigger batteries in the basement connected to the solar panels in the yard but they're not powerful enough to run AC. Can run a few fans though.
And our wifi is the only one on the street that's up when the power is out so curious neighbours could figure out something's going on at our house.
Looks like it's currently $849 in Bluetti's summer sale. That's for about 2kWh of battery, 2kW-ish inverter and solar charger in one box, which is a lot less than it would have been five years ago.
Designed to fit on top of a fridge but it can be used for powering other things too.
Oddly enough the UK was the only place where we had a generator hooked in to automatically take over power for the house when the grid went out. That was partly because we lived in a wood where falling branches would take our power lines, but it was also because the power company couldn't be bothered to clean up the lines so falling branches wouldn't take them out.
It works as a UPS but you can also attach solar panels to it for off-grid use. I didn't because I don't want to have to run cables through the walls into the house.
That and Russia has suggested destroying the orbit if Starlink doesn't stop enabling terrorist attacks by NATO proxies on its people.
The AI cut-off dive bomb tactic is a blatant warcrime.
Space Data Centers are in the same category as fully autonomous self-driving cars within eighteen months that he 'promised' in 2019.
You can watch the 'Autonomy Day' video on YouTube. People financed Model 3's on the promise of renting them as robotaxis while they were at work.
Physics is a hard stop on false promises.
It's OK to back difficult challenges with no underlying physical impossibilities that's engineering. Radiating heat into space is a physics problem.
I didn't believe the robotaxi promise then and I don't believe the space data centers claim now.
If there's a new topological physics breakthrough then let's see the paper and get the Nobel Prize gears turning because that would revolutionize technology on and off planet.
I'd love to see it but I don't believe it.
I recently hooked up a battery to my fridge because I got tired of not being able to open it when the grid power went out. Now I use maybe 10% more power because even though it passes AC straight through when the grid is working, the electronics still need to suck up a few watts to keep it working.
I suspect a lot of these battery purchases were made for similar reasons: we no longer live in First World countries where you can rely on the power to stay on and now we have to adopt Third World practises like having generators and batteries for when the power is out. I now have enough batteries to run lights, the Internet, the TV, my work computers and a few other things that we don't want to be without when the power goes away again.
Reddit isn't wrong about bots but odds are what they really want is your identity. That earns money.
The trouble is people in Saudi Arabia will use old. to read about liberation topics or people in the US will read about drug topics, or whatever the mala prohibita are that will land you in prison for things that are perfectly legal in other jurisdictions.
Even people with accounts who read other subs logged in.
"Just create a new anonymous account" is what people will say who don't understand how identity correlation works. Sure there are ways that 0.0000001% of the population can manage securely, but that's not how this will go down.
The UK just arrested an American attorney who was critical of UK politics and they have multiple people in prison for clicking 'Like'. If you think they won't arrest somebody for reading the wrong sub, give it a few months.
Also, don't connect through Heathrow ever again.
What the fuck is a "net zero" HVAC?
A window. The top models come with a sunscreen.
Fuck that.
Living in New Orleans...with easily avg temps in the mid to high 90's with mid to high 90's % humidity too....AC is a necessity.
That's been long known here....can't fathom why EU is having such a problem simply using AC when needed.
This isn't rocket surgery , this isn't NEW.
I've only lived in one apartment ONCE didn't have gas and I will not do that again.....I prefer gas to cook on and is cheaper for heat and water heating than electric by far....
Solar is already cheaper than coal
People and companies are STILL FREE to use all the solar they want, or any other source....
It just isn't mandated by the state.
.. which major American political party claims it is in favor of local control?
I would posit this IS an example of local control.
Most things of this nature need to be handled at the state level.....not at the federal level.
