  • then you weren't in sweden. we dont even signpost them.

  • sweden also has oil peaker plants, the largest ones in europe, but most of them are condemned. it's mostly hydro. we did have pumped hydro for a while but that closed in the 80s due to bad economic viability (up until a year or so ago i was paying €0.02/kWh)

  • your loss

  • how many hours a day do you use a browser?

  • walked past a guy in my town last week wearing an old jeanjacket with the datsun logo across the back.

    he'd added an -e to it with a felt tip pen and written what was presumably his name underneath. mike.

    the rest of the back was a giant iron-on hatsune miku.

    it felt like the internet was leaking.

  • morrowind currently costs €6 on gog. i've seen it go even cheaper.

  • i can answer the last one with something i learned the other week: the reason it's "a pair of pants", is that they used to consist of only the leg bits. you'd put on underwear, then leggy bits, then your jacket, then you'd tie the legs to the jacket.

  • for now

  • maybe it's because i grew up with vhs first but dvd always felt like a lot of hassle compared to just "put it in and watch"

  • no you were right the first time

  • i don't know if i would take this study as "knowledge". that map of the us? it's just a map of chargers, not of data from the study. reading the study, they were only measuring in one county. there's no categorisation of the type of fast charger they measured, just "a variety". the error bars overlap enough that this could all be errors. and why only measure at fast chargers and gas stations? why not at other high-power electrical systems like transformer yards in urban areas? they alno have fans, surely.

    question is, why publish it if it is so obviously (and willfully) wrong?

  • oh absolutely, it's fascinating to hear a perspective i didn't know existed.

  • don't forget the endless mosquitoes!

  • this one?

    i remember i found it weird that he's holding a filter rather than an actual pot. now i realise he stole it. it's less funny than i remember...

  • lol, then they'd have no time for anything else. usb-c is so complicated that basically nobody is compliant.

  • i ripped all my dvds specifically to get rid of the menus because they were slow, hard to use, and full of frustrating animations. they usually just felt like an afterthought.

    i've never been one to be swayed by extras, it usually just feels akin to jingling keys to get me to buy shit. maybe i'm weird.

  • it's called "distrohopping", and yes. nowadays it's easier to do it in a vm, but less fun
