Seems to me that noticing content on Lemmy that you don’t want to see, then not banning said content which you have the full right to do as a Lemmy user is the ultimate cuck lmao. This is not the own you think it is

This is the way

I saw Hasan Piker share that KKK flyer yesterday on his stream. It’s fucking disgusting, with the font and everything.

I was apprehensive about using the term Nazi to describe conservatives because I didn’t want to group them all under that banner, but there’s no hiding it anymore. I’m going to use this language around my friends and family until and after the election in hopes of setting there minds straight. We are literally watching the coming of the Fourth Reich. Fuck

This

I guess it comes down to whether we want to primarily communicate battery size in terms of charge (Coulombs = Amps * Time) or energy (Joules = Watts * Time).

The first metric you multiply by your operating voltage to get the second metric, whereas the second metric you have to divide by your voltage to get the first. Depends on what comes easier to most people.

There are literally like 10 different major dictionaries. If you have one specific one in mind, I’ll kindly refer you to OneLook.com

That’s an amazing idea. I had no clue this was a thing. I would imagine openvpn is free?

I was just thinking about this: peer review admin actions. A first admin could initiate the action, then the peer review could be assigned randomly to another admin - randomly so that admins can’t create specific cartels to team up on specific topics.

And it’ll be one of her worst decisions of this campaign

JFC haha

There are certifications out there like FairTrade and others that try to make labor less slave-like in the world. Guess you could call that a way of making human life more comfortable

Game is super fun to watch on Twitch. I’m hoping more of my content creators pick it up and play it. I’ll support it

Thank you BP

Yeah I was about to suggest F-Droid as a FOSS alternative to Google Play.

Just looked it up though and Organic Maps is not coming up

Edit: Just kidding, guess it’s coming up now. Make sure to select the right anti-feature settings!

You can use FireFox and set your default search engine to Ecosia’s. Best of both world’s.

There is also a FF extension called Search For Trees that defaults to Google’s search engine instead of Ecosia/Bing where you don’t have to pre-load each search with #g, unlike Ecosia. The Google search in this extension is a little wacky though so not perfect. Search For Trees donates to Trees For the Future btw.

Yep exactly

I agree: transportation will probably favor hydrogen over batteries.

That being said, to pile on hydrogen, I’m not sure if I like the water demand part of it either. Coastal hydrogen production might make sense if sea water is the feedstock and corrosion/discharge can be released to the source in a manner that doesn’t lead to biodiversity death.

Then again, fossil fuel and mineral based (thermal) energy sources like coal, nat gas, oil, and nuclear all require cold water for cooling purposes. If we transition those sources to hydrogen production (and maybe use in the case of 100% hydrogen fired CCGTs that GE, Siemens, andbMitsubishi are making), there might actually be increased water demand since you have hydrogen + cooling.

It’ll have it’s niche, that’s for sure. But I wouldn’t count it out.

And on the topic of better solutions, I’d love to see vertical underground pumped hydro storage pick up steam (buh dum tss). I don’t see how underground pumped hydro isn’t feasible since we already do geothermal in the same way.

Don’t store it in diatomic form. Ammonia is the common alternative for hydrogen storage and transport, iirc

And even if round trip efficiency is poor, if renewables are in excess, it would be so much better to dump that energy into something that to have to curtail.

In a region like Finland, sand batteries appear to be worthwhile for seasonal storage. Might be an avenue to pursue

Then there’s always green hydrogen as well

Great point, thanks for bringing it up
