I love that this is how I find out about this.

Little miss what?

how do you add multiple pics on here?

Just add them to the text in your post.

But yeah, wipeout was awesome. Redout 1 really scratched that itch, including the music.

You wish… I recently heard in Germany there was more than a full day worth of electricity usage applied for in battery storage but doesn’t get permitted. All the while the federal government pushes subsidised gas plants.

That is like… half a car, if you count wheels and seats. Maybe a unicycle?

But what is hobby horsing called - is it “horsing” or “hobby horsing”?

I don’t really get it…

And what’s the ai stuff in your comment supposed to mean?

Same here. We pay about 11 cents per kWh in fees. The market price drops to less than negative 49 cents tomorrow due to solar power overproduction.

I’m on one of those contracts that essentially just gives me the rate that’s currently being paid on the market. I’m now back up at 20 cents per kWh, but tomorrow noon it’ll drop to -37 cents.

Northern Germany checking in… I currently earn 9.7 cents per kWh that I consume.

to me

That’s the issue right there.

You must have a pretty specific workflow that fails so completely using Microsoft Office.

My company provides latex templates, so I’m using those. They also provide a gitlab instance, so working collaboratively is easy and reliable.

The second point is that as has already been mentioned, you can keep using the computer after the software support ends, that doesn’t really work for most subscription software.

Fair point.

An admittedly excellent office suite

Every time some colleague uses office and I’m forced to hop on as well it feels like my whole workflow just grinds to a halt and there’s nothing that I’d want more than to throw my laptop out the window… There’s not much else that I hate with the same passion like ms Office. “Admittedly excellent”? What?

without a digital use by date

What? Apple just drops devices at some point.

That’s nice and all but not what the headline compared and therefore not the point. That comparison was specifically between ICEs and EVs.

Yes.

I was angry for about a minute… “What the fuck, people are wearing anc headphones when driving a car???” just because it was a Skoda thing and I automatically assumed it would have to have something to do with cars. It took me until the end of the video that she was talking about collisions between cyclists and pedestrians.

There’s a small company party near to where I live that converts ICEs to EVs.

Bottom line is that it’s expensive as fuck to do so and the clients are either well-off folks that want an electric version of their favourite historic car (DeLorean or 2cv or something like that) or companies that calculate much differently, with six digits worth of km on their delivery vehicles. It’s not economical to do that to an ordinary car with ordinary kilometres per year.

I’m driving one.

It’s nice.

So? Overall risk is still much lower.

First time I ever heard about guardrails having issues with EVs. Do you have a source for that?

Also the comment was about the fire risk, which the article was about.

The article is about batteries that might catch fire less often.

ICEs catch fire much more often than EVs already. The comment was specifically about that.
