As a family we rarely watch “on demand” or live TV. We have a mini hooked up to our TV and sail the seas for shows we want and watch them that way. We have a Roku stick in our bedroom TV and it works great, but if I get the feeling it starts to go all Project 2025 its getting ditched, but I’m in the UK so it’ll be interesting to see how it changes here.
The current problem with mass solar plants is that they lose a good chunk of the stored energy before it is distributed to where it goes. Obviously far better than coal, but the panels need to be at the source of where they need to go, hence why roof top solar panels on buildings are great idea. Wind power is a lot more efficient, but it isn’t like we can all plonk big windmills on our roofs.
Just when you think the geriatric generational 1% are about to pass away and leave the world to younger, more sensible, caring people who want to help the earth heal, arseholes like these guys come along just to ensure we’re all fucked for another 50 years.
I disagree. Fusion / fission is a long term goal. Solar is cheap to produce but requires big areas and currently not very efficient. Wind power i think is probably our best immediate term bet. The UK nearly went through the whole of April this year entirely on sustainable fuels alone. Within fusion there are enough countries doing their own thing with varying levels of success that there is enough competition for it to be spread world wide. It is also easily monetized, however i envision it would be expensive for the consumer first as companies claw money back from R&D.
I remember that image too, I was speaking from my perspective that the first time I remember being made aware of it was in the 1980s. I should have been more clear, sorry.
Couldn’t agree more. Well said.
Well, we’re about 60 to 80,000 years from the next ice age. If we haven’t all died by then we could wait for that?
Or just about every developed nation on the planet needs to move to sustainable fuels now!
Nuclear fusion would be an absolute game changer. Clean, infinite energy, but it is too far away for it to make a difference let alone be able to reverse the damage that is being done. For future generations sake, as a leader of a nation, I’d be throwing all my money at it. Like, yesterday.
No shit. I remember the messages from climate scientists in the 1980s about global warming (as it used to be called), and its almost as if the whole conversation didn’t rear its head properly till mid 2010s. It isn’t something I’m an expert on, but I feel like we are beyond the point of no return. In the UK we have just this week set the record high temp, a month sooner than the usual weather starts. It isn’t that its getting hotter, it is that it is now on average far hotter earlier and longer. The absolute insane greed of the stock markets around the world putting their il gotten gains into AI data centres is just going to exacerbate the problem. As it gets hotter, people buy more air conditioning which then makes it worse! Its a vicious circle.
There is part of me that hopes that the current ruling generation will soon all pass and this age of greed will cease and the earth can breath a sigh of relief, but no. It appears there are a long list of cunts who will happily sacrifice their children’s future and everybody else’s for the next few billion dollars. The 1% simply do not give a shit at all. They literally think, “Well I wont be here when the world burns, why should I care now?”
Id say the hat was wearing her.
Zendaya is in everything. She’s the Pedro Pascal for women of Hollywood. She’s such a meh actress, but good for her. Smash it out now, make a load of money and fuck off into the ether. I know I would. The other 3 are all great actresses, Hathaway hasnt done much good lately. I can’t wait for them them to be masively wasted in this film. I was personally all for this film until I learned it isnt based on Homers Illiad, but apparently modern reworking of it.
Best and finest indeed. Thanks for the dumbing down for me.
ELIT please.
Explain like im Trump in case you didn’t get the T bit. Sorry.
“Fuck them trees!”
Billionaires, probably.
Russia needs China more than the latter need Russia. This is not a formal alliance, just an amicable partnership. I doubt Putin regrets it on a personal level. The man doesn’t give a fuck about those that have suffered, but at an operational level it has massively weekend Russia and China are making Putin still appear strong whilst making Trump look just ‘meh’.
What do you think we’ll see instead. When it comes to tech, id never say never. But I know what you mean.
Quantum processors are already a thing. I dont think we’ll see quantum powered consumer products for a while but I think they will eliminate the need for massive data centres and should be way better for the environment.
So now USA is the new Russia for people who will likey face prosecution in their home country? I’m sure a government full of pedophile protecting, market manipulating felons will welcome defectors with open arms.
So, is this like, playing the brown noise and everyone nearby just constantly shits themselves?
I’ve lived 43 years with never buying an EA sports title. I think I’ll manage the rest.
