Germany hits 62.7% renewables in 2024 energy mix, with solar contributing 14%

Seems to be a recent thing, as I was looking at data from Feb 2023, and unrelated to Norway's use of renewables.

Interesting article nonetheless.They should definitely cone to a different pricing agreement with Norway as to not negatively affect them.And it will be even less of a problem once those countries properly ramp up their installation of more renewables and storage.

Iowa and South Dakota rely mostly on wind and are amongst the states that have the cheapest electricity in the USA - https://web.stanford.edu/group/efmh/jacobson/Articles/Others/24-08-Letter-Vance.pdf

It's certainly true it's easier when you have hydro though.

Norway has one of the lowest. And they don't have only 62.7%.99% of their energy comes from renewables.

And in the USA, some of the states with lowest prices have the highest % of renewables.

Matrix conduit call problems

Can't help much since I haven't tried running a Matrix server in a while now, but are you using Conduit or Conduwuit?Conduwuit is in much more active development and has more features implemented and bugs fixed.You could also try opening an issue on Github / ask them on Matrix.

South Dakota produced 110% of its electricity demand with just renewables for a year

Renewables + storage (batteries, etc.) can be more than enough. And you can get that in a much lower cost, at a much faster time than nuclear.https://web.stanford.edu/group/efmh/jacobson/Articles/I/NuclearVsWWS.pdf

The same person has also published studies and plans for 100% renewables in the USA and in the world.USA Grid reliability in the USA with 100% renewables World

All of which he updates every couple of years.

He also posted a list of the top 10 states by electricity demand met by renewables (Which is also in the linked pdf).

There's also a list of countries by renewables percentage, but it's from 2021:https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_renewable_electricity_production

Trouble setting up sliding sync with matrix

Dendrite doesn't support sliding sync afaik https://github.com/element-hq/dendrite/issues/3236

Other than Synapse, I know Conduwuit has sliding sync support.

can I funnel more than one service at a time using tailscale?

Neat! Glad to hearYeah they've done a good job with their documentation.I was tempted by it several times already to try some features I didn't even consider using.

Aptera completes low-speed drive in its first production-intent solar electric vehicle

That's a weird comparison to make. The Aptera is smaller and uses different materials.Afaik it's going to be classified as a motorcycle in many states in the USA, but they're still aiming for a high rating. I know they have crumple zones and a safety cell made from composites akin to F1 cars.Whether what they're planning will be enough, we'll only know for sure once they test it.

The math works quite well as long as the information is accurate.Of course things can always turn up to be different in the end product.But from the information we have now, ~4 hours of good sunlight conditions will be enough for 43 miles.
