This is the most disgusting comment I have read on the internet in a while.

This only works in sparsely populated areas like the US though. I can't imagine this working in European countries (or cities like New York) where most people live in multi-story buildings in the city that are shared with other people.

For a downtime of 2 hours they would owe you around 0.05$ (20x2/(24x31)). Perhaps they can give you a 1000 token GPT4 budget?

In my (limited) experience with Bard it is not at all comparable to GPT4. I'd say it's a little worse than GPT3.5 even.

What I find the most absurd is how people belonging to a discriminated group actively participate in the discrimination sometimes. This is especially true for poor people. Just try to convince poor people that a tax on inheritance above X m

Then why wasn't Fukushima safe? Was the experience only gathered afterwards? What knowledge was missing in 2011?

You're right, I didn't realize it was already decided in 2002.

I would love to hear more about those "sane right leaning opinions" for which you get attributed to afd.

I don't think you have a good understanding of what is going on in Germany. 20% of the German population currently want to vote for a fascist who likes to cite right wing terrorists, thinks Hitler wasn't all bad and wants to depor

Building nuclear plants takes forever and Germany has no reliable fuel source. Even Sweden is rowing back from their plan to build 10 new nuclear reactors.

The economy is not going downhill, its stagnating. And this is due to the dependency on cheap russian gas that the conservative party somehow thought was a great idea. The decision to phase out of nuclear was good, as import of nuclear fuel

And when they blow up, half of Germany can not be inhabited anymore. Germany is small and extremely densely populated. You can not compare it to the US where nuclear plants are in the middle of nowhere.

Fuel cells and electrolyzation devices also wear out.

by Gasp0de 3y ago
That's only slightly related to Energiewende and more to the need for cheap russian gas.

by Gasp0de 3y ago
The sky-high energy prices are not because the end of coal and nuclear, but because the conservative government that ruled for the past 16 years streamlined the entire energy system so that it depended on cheap russian gas. However, prices

There's a primate research facility AND someone caught the flu? That can't be a coincidence!

This is prime conspiracy territory. Did you perhaps stop taking any medication recently?

Can you explain this? I thought buck converters just switch the supply side on and off rapidly and use a capacitor to flatten the output?

Why is it using an inverter only to power what seems to be two dc power supplies? That seems unnecessary.

Who should be fined, though? The repo company? Tesla (the company)? The employee who didn't cash the cheque?

At least in Germany, fossil fuels are gifted to power companies (they don't pay per ton of coal extracted), while the resulting costs due to fueling the climate crisis are carried by society (and mostly by poor countries around the glo

China is currently the country that builds the most renewable energy. Their energy production through solar exceeds that of the rest of the world (!). Thanks to the Biden administration, the US is currently at least trying to catch up to th

They will be paid not for the energy they produce but for the ability to produce energy on demand. It's a grid operation cost and is already financed as such in Europe. Companies can sell the guarantee to produce a certain amount of en

Running them almost never (predictions assume around 3 days per year for Germany) means we can use cheaper plants with lower efficiency. These plants will be operated by the grid operators, not by power generation companies. Their cost will

by Gasp0de 3y ago
Batteries can save the grid in the short term (all those unused EVs standing around) and more and more loads are designed to be controllable by power grid operators. You're making this a bigger problem than it is. In Germany, many hous

Burning hydrogen sounds like a highly inefficient process.
177.
by Gasp0de 3y ago
That's highly inefficient though, and therefore negates all the cost savings in the process before. How much efficiency can you get out of burning stuff, 40% of the stored energy?

Growing large amount of edible plants, feeding those to animals for months or years, and then eating the resulting meat is in itself pretty inefficient. A lot of water, energy, and, in extension, carbon emissions could be saved by just not

That article is a bit useless. Yeah, some people may not understand VPN and believe it somehow works similar to TOR, but I believe most people do know what to use it for, and this website doesn't seem like it caters to mostly non-tech

Interesting. The authors of the captcha solving bot papers claim 100% accuracy for reCaptcha and 98% accuracy for hCaptcha. That google does this is not really a surprise, since they earn money by letting bots through (bots are then counted
