The dark forest of the Internet is driving this migration of human Internet traffic. It is not a fault but rather a result.

Yeah. I have a small pocket knife i carry everywhere, it is stainless. I’ve had it for years, and frequently bring it in the water with me clipped to my swim suit (incase i need to cut a tangled rope). I wash it like a dish with soap and water, i use it hard and put it away wet, and it has been fine for years and years.
After all this, i took it on a single trip in salt water, it spotted with rust that night.
I also have a Sig P938 SAS which has a stainless slide. I keep that dry and oil it on occasion, and yet that one spotted with rust within a year despite me taking good care of it. Luckily sig replaced the slide but this taught me one good lesson.
Different grades of stainless make it different grades of rust resistant. Kind of like calling IP67 electronics, like the iPhone 7, “waterproof” when they can only really withstand splashing. Some can get dunked, some can’t.
The forest grows out, gets fat with wood and brush and stuff, then it all dies to a fire or whatever. Something new always rises, and I’m excited for the new growth
Google and netflix and stuff will eventually push people away and people will find something new to do with their time.
Plugin Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV). You get a bit of range straight ev, usually like 30 miles, then it switches over to traditional hybrid with gas engine. It’s the best of both worlds or the worst of both worlds depending on perspective.
Pepe who like them: You get an around town ev that is also a hybrid for roadtrips that can refill at gas stations and charge overnight on any old traditional wall plug. You save a pile of money on gas and can get a solid tax credit on the purchase.
Pepe who dislike them: You have to go to the gas station and you have to plug it in. You have maintenance of both powertrain systems which can be more expensive as it requires certified technicians to work with the higher voltage. Registration costs a ton. Their typically packed into traditional IC models (like an og jeep) making it pretty dense under the hood and the body is less efficient than a real high mpg IC car or straight EV.
I personally like them, but have been weary of them since we run our vehicles till the wheels fall off at 250,000 miles after 10 years and don’t know what the extended maintenance looks like for them.
Americans buy crossovers, so they make ot look like a crossover. Small is efficient, so Americans get the beans
Lol i love how he called it X .com way back then and they renamed it to paypal.
That’s akin to our rates, im about 13c/kwh delivered. I use about 1.2 to 1.5 mwh per month (with natural gas furnace and wood stove), so 2.50$/kwh would make me shut my house off at the breaker and call it camping.
Good point, for aome reason i was thinking more off-grid than load balancing economics. The battery would probably help lower power by filling when power is cheap and supplying when the rates spike throughout the day
At 50 bucks a day it would pay for itself pretty quickly. Not sure what prices are by you but here you can get a brand new big stove with catalytic converter and everything installed for 10k to 12k, or get a decent used stove and have someone install it for 5k ±
Solar is quite poor in Northern winters. Wind + solar + heat would be a better bet, but the battery required to heat your house for more than a day with low winds would be prohibitively expensive unless you added geothermal to the mix like a geothermal heatpump which is also very expensive. Betweem the gear, battery, geothermal, all installed your probably in the 80k$ range or more. A wood stove would be the best bet
You should make a series list of episodes, it’s a pretty good format to remember all the crazy stuff that has rolled through lately
Would this not be s05e01?
Excellent distinction. Ty for the info
Is that picture from before or after the missile hit? That ship looks like it belongs in a treeline behind someone’s old barn
Besides maybe coal
Everything I find shows them as still being subsidized and receiving the lions share of energy subsidies, which is fine in my book.
They do get subsidized pretty well, which is a good thing in my book.
The US was like that 20-30 years ago
You discreetly carpet bomb the hallway between classes like a gentleman. If the smell catches up, then look around non chalantly to pretend your looking to see who farted.
Grand Wagoneer wishing they had numbers like that
