  • Overall, I agree. I run my own yard offgrid with solar and battery, but I still end up firing up the generator a fair bit in winter because the demand periods don't match the production peak.

    But it seems like that's just a scaling problem, and it seems like a few billion spent on batteries is a less technical solution than a fission plant, depending on the design and scale. But it hasn't really happened yet, even in China where the parts are produced. They're further along, but they're still firing up coal and nuclear at a scale unmatched by the western countries right now, alongside record solar production. So something in that theory isn't lining up.

  • I'd be just as dead, but I don't think I want the shame of being killed by the ugliest truck in history.

  • Renewables often have storage issues since they aren't on demand. And for the ones that are like hydro, we're to the point that any new dams are the same timeline and cost because everything easy was dammed long ago, and dams of that scale are not without risks.

  • I mean, there's also Pedro Pascale.

  • If you're paying $6 for a chick, you're buying a pet, not a meal.

  • I don't think a pedestrian is surviving being hit by any vehicle at 75mph. You could wrap a Prius in down pillows and it's going to end messily.

  • If you don't want ridiculous amount of goddamn perfume in it, you pretty much need to.

    IDK if these manufacturers don't have olfactory senses in their QC departments, but it's getting stupid how much more scent is being added. I had a Costco brick of Irish Spring soaps I'd been whittling away at and bought another one recently. I couldn't even stand having the new one in the house, I tossed it because it stank so much, even through the door of the bathroom cabinet. I still have a couple left from the old brick and they're manageable but now I'm going to have to find something else.

    Maybe I need to look into making it, too.

  • Do you measure white powder with those?

  • Laura Loomer? Oh, that cockroach is slashing her own tires for internet ragebait and crying about the death of her bestest bestie Charlie that she was attacking 5 minutes before he leaned left.

  • Propaganda Barbie is off to spend time with Ken. Hope she chokes to death on his buddy's dick. .

  • They're proud of their police state, aren't they?

  • Pretty sure his yacht doesn't have a lot of volition itself.

  • OK, a tuppencequidbithappenny

  • Mate them until I get cauliflower.

  • I don't think you're overexaggerating the potential backlash at all; especially on Lemmy. When I read that blurb at the top I was thinking "Bold move, Cotton...". If you told me you get death threats over it, I wouldn't be at all surprised.

    I've vibecoded a number of apps that I haven't released for about the same reasons you describe. What I have put out have been little helpers with miniscule surface area. But the bigger ones I've built and am improving have been tailored to my needs (or for our group) and help immensely. At one time I could have coded them myself (maybe), but I never would have gotten around to it.

    What pisses me off the most is when people come down on a FOSS maintainer that uses it to keep up with bugs and security fixes because nobody can be arsed to spend any time helping them, instead they'd rather sit on the internet and criticize other people's methods of coping with overload.

  • Oh, did the subpoenas suddenly get too real? Guess turning over his books on all his corruption schemes, I mean, businesses, wasn't to his taste.

  • I'd be upset that it wasn't my piss.

  • I'm starting to think these guys aren't exactly telling us the truth all the time...

  • Sir, this is a lemmys.
