Hey guys, I just wanted to say that it looks completely natural that a short sarcastic post about social media in general gets followed by two suppressing posts that very specifica…

This is why social media ToS are typically concise and clear: "License agreement: We spy on you and sell your information to anyone that's interested, press accept to continue".

The words "Team", "Hero" and "Action" are conspicuously missing from the acronym MOBA. Given that the phrase "multi-player" traditionally didn't say anything about playing on the s…

The source is available without paying, you could have had asked. "I don't know where these figures come from" isn't a question, it's the start of a bad faith argument. As for your…

Sure, but people writing articles on the subject should know better than to mix units like this.

I get the feeling there's a "snake eating its own tail" aspect here. Assuming carbon sequestration can be done at scale, it will likely require energy, maybe even a lot of energy. …

What government would that be? Hydro has been a mainstay for 70+ years.

70-80% Hydro [~90% Hydro+Geothermal]. ~10% wind and almost no PV. It's important to keep in mind that wind and solar aren't really a part of this success story.

>Otoh sitting in the sun for a few hours to charge some battery via rays from the sun is itself free. Sounds wonderful, please show the math.

You have inadvertently highlighted how thin the line is between (some) business and fraud.

Imho it would be nice if this type of article didn't always assume that everyone knows that The One True Voltage™ for battery cells is (just about) 3.7V (in this case 3.65V accordi…

>"0.01997 $/h * 24 * 0.266 * 365 * 20 = 930$" That's a calculation based on 1kW of installed capacity, which is about 3 of those 345W panels so the earning per panel over its lifet…

Also one batch of PV panels equivalent to a reactor cost 6x as much and with a lifetime of 20 years to the 60 for a nuclear reactor so you will need to replace these at least twice…

>"So 1.5 GW of solar = 1.0 GW of nuclear." That's not how it works. PV capacity factor is 11-12% to the 90-95% of nuclear meaning you need to install about an order of magnitude mo…
