Having seen posts in social media by the usual suspects from previous such incidents, it's a way to convince the audience at home that the enemy (NATO) is actually weak and that there's no need to be alarmed.

Germany's gas problem wasn't purely about energy, but the availability of feedstock to produce chemicals. Natural gas, being 90% methane, is a valuable source of hydrogen.

Diversifying just a little bit would go a long way. When Russia invaded Ukraine suddenly several LNG terminals gained regulatory approval, even though previously those projects were in bureaucratic purgatory for years.

Part of the reason was putting into law the option to become a crown witness, famously used by Jarosław "Masa" Sokołowski. In my view what really did them in was Poland's EU accession later on. It gave young men alternatives

I'm so glad that fad is over. My mother worked as a theatre artisan before retirement and it was, among other things, fumes from curing epoxy that caused numerous health issues down the line.

60tps in Chrome here - 14" MBP M4. Safari loads 3% of the model and then stops - repeatedly. Basically zero using a 7700S in Chrome on Ubuntu though. Must be not working at all, as the performance difference can't be that large.

Or even a thin-film amorphous silicon solar panel + capacitor. Assuming most of the weight of that ring is the battery, it appears to be storing around 0.5Wh, so two years of operation should amount to approximately 30uW of power. It should

They're reporting 1.6TB/s from a 512GB stack - even if they loaded just that 96GB model into it, effectively wasting most of the capacity, it appears they would arrive at a much cheaper system.
