Also when you account for those batteries the cost is going to shift a bit.

You better be bringing units if you’re going to be claiming this.

Still less than half of the LCOE of nuclear when storage is added: https://www.statista.com/statistics/1475611/global-levelized-cost-of-energy-components-by-technology/

Given that both solar and storage costs are trending downwards while nuclear is not, this basically kills any argument for nuclear in the future. It’s not viable on its face - renewables + storage is the definitive future.

Encryption is totally and completely haram

I mean, check it out just to rule out the possibility, I guess. The letter spells out how to determine whether this was the case or not - do a hand recount.

76 million, which is not 100s.

Also unironically yes - the time for being polite has passed. Braindead people should be labelled as such in public forums.

As a counterpoint, I’ve bought loads of really good cycling accessories from AliExpress. It’s not impossible to buy high-quality things from China - this is after all where a large part of everything is manufactured these days - you just have to be careful not to fall for the offers that are just obviously too good to be true.

Uncapped overtime excuses bad management. I get why they’re pissed, this puts a spotlight on how bad they are at management.

Layers - get a good base layer, merino wool is the gold standard for these. You also want to get a neck gaiter, plus some merino wool socks, and some kind of cap. These will keep you warm and dry throughout most cold weather. Add more layers on top when outside, and remember to remove layers proactively if you feel yourself starting to sweat - it’s never a good idea to be wet in cold weather. The base layer will make physical exertion a pretty hot affair quite fast, so you’d be surprised how fast the sweat starts pouring.

Oh fuck that rules

That policy obviously needs to die a horrible death.

Barring some technical breakthrough, I am inclined to agree.

We can and should build extensive high-speed rail networks, though. This will provide intra-continental mobility at a price affordable for everyone. While gratuitous trips to the other side of the world will no longer be feasible, fast intra-continental trips can in many cases take their place. Flying can remain a niche for when it’s completely unavoidable, in which case we should be able to absorb the emissions.

Actual emissions taxing is basically a necessary step when it comes to air travel - currently, the fuel is completely tax free and that’s not great. Take all of that money and pump it directly into rail, which is the actual way forward for intra-continental travel.

It will get more expensive and less accessible for lower income people. There’s just really no way around that.

Normally I will default to siding with workers, but I’m not siding with the pilots on this one. No way.

Barring societal collapse I believe I will be able to retire, but that’s only because I’ve gotten extraordinarily lucky in life.

It’s also when using a blocked word on lemmy.ml, but will only show as such for users of that instance.

The r-word is on that list, and I believe the b-word might be as well.

Porn isn’t going anywhere. LoL

Give Project 2025 a read. Wild things in there.

Gay marriage? It’s already dangerous to just come out, let alone get married.

Thanks to who?

And contraception? They’ren already losing that one too in many states thanks to local governments anyway.

Literally a direct cause of the last Trump administration.

Note that this is monthly, not yearly as is usually reported for other countries. Argentinian inflation is not the same beast we’re dealing with in most of the rest of the world. The yearly number is closer to 200% as reported by the article.

For sure, this is a hard lesson learned for me - it doesn’t matter if you’re doing good work if no one knows about it, so if you want to be rewarded for your work you’ll have to spend less time actually doing it and more time doing marketing for what you’ve done.

I’m sure it’s possible to find some good places on the island, but in my opinion, why risk it? Thailand has so much other stuff to offer at way less of a risk.
