  • France's Power Prices Jump 22% as Heatwave Trims Nuclear Output

    Jump

  • It is called marginal pricing the wholesale electricity market uses which determines the spot price of electricity. It is based on the most expensive form of generation, typically gas, needed to meet demand regardless of how little is required. So here in the UK if 99% is generated by low cost renewable and only 1% is generated by expensive gas it all gets priced at the rate for the gas. Absolute madness when you live in a nation like the UK where all electricity retailers are getting their power from one national network operator.

  • It's not twisting anything, it's verifiable fact. Water temperatures in rivers in the current heatwaves we've had in Europe that are more than 10 degrees celsius above mean average temperatures has meant that the temperatures in rivers and lakes are already reaching levels that are causing severe issues to the wildlife and plants within them. Dumping millions of litres of hot water from power stations into them just makes a critical situation worse.

  • They do. What happens is that either water levels drop sufficiently enough or the temperature of the water in the rivers that they're drawing from rises to a point that it cannot provide sufficient cooling so they have to turn down or turn off the reactor.

  • Seems like me finally closing my Facebook account this week was timed well.

  • Anthropic AI created fake profiles and impersonated people in attempted hack

    Jump

  • Anthropic and OpenAI literally have no control over their leading AI models anymore and it's only by sheer luck that they've not gone full rogue.

  • 75% More Pedestrians Have Been Killed Since 2009. Giant Trucks and SUVs Are Why

    Jump

  • Except they're not. Here in the UK semi-trucks run at 97,000lb and we're also moving to SUVs and Ford Trucks like Raptor are also starting to make yet pedestrian casualty rates aren't going up.

  • Google preps Pixel ‘Audio Memory’ that ambiently tracks your ‘important conversations,’ like AI notetaker pins

  • Just switched from Pixel 8 Pro to iPhone. Looking like that was a good decision even though iOS is a shitshow to use in comparison.

  • Louis Rossmann is suing Samsung after firm offers $330 refund for defective SSD while selling the drives on Amazon for $949 — spat over 4TB 990 Pro SSD is headed to court

    Jump

  • Exactly that because drives were getting cheaper over time so it saved Samsung money to refund at the going market rate and at worst case it would be just a few dollars more. When they penned that they never envisaged the shitshow we have going on today when the price of storage and RAM has 4x'd or more.

  • Republican bill urges "deadly force" to stop abortions in North Carolina

    Jump

  • So to defend the life of an unborn baby they're going to make it legal to kill the mother carrying it? What the actual fuck do they think would happen to the unborn baby in that scenario? Dumb beyond belief doesn't even come close to describing this and is a prime example why religion should be absolutely nowhere near law making.

  • Windows Update is a torture chamber for seldom-used PCs

    Jump

  • It's a torture for seldom used Linux PCs as well. In short any PC that isn't updated for a long period of time is going to spend a long period of time updating with the possibility of breaking things.

    Jump

  • The ceasefire Republicans are hoping will save them is very unlikely to outlive the week, it's almost impossible it's going to last the two weeks Trump is desperately hoping for. Israel isn't taking any notice of it and JD Vance is trying to convince everyone that Lebanon wasn't part of the agreement when it was clearly stated by Iran that it was if the US wanted a ceasefire.
