Law of conservation of energy can be applied here as well. So you can’t expect something else if you produce and consume more. I don’t dispute capitalism and democracy. Just trying to figure out what I (as person) really need. Every weekend

Cloud is nice if it works. Web hosting is nice if you pay for it. In history timeline, future archaeologists will probably see almost nothing, some books… as we are used to past centuries. But clouds, servers… gone. BTW don’t use SSD for ar

How many coconuts are on one tree and how many tons of coconuts would be needed to replace kerosene globally? I am 100% for decarbonization as fast as possible. BTW Law of Conservation of Energy will be applied to coconut-based energy as we
