While wind and solar will help, nuclear is really the dominant part of the solution, because of it's ability to work independent of local weather.

Mostly less.

That's a small part of their sins. The big part is relying on gas for heating. When speaking with germans I've found that they think of gas as "clean" which sounds insane to me. Yeah, maybe locally, compared to coal, but

The previous anti-nuclear social-democratic government together with the demonstrably insane "green" party installed a board in the state owned power company Vattenfall that after a while managed to sort of claim that it wasn&#x27

No, not really. It makes a lot of sense in all stable countries.

The new coalition government has pledged $40B (approximately the market cap of Twitter, heh) in loan guarantees for nuclear power construction. They have also pledged to create legal guarantees that future politicians will not be able to sh

One: HBO Max, they had this deal of "half price for life" when they launched here (so about $5/month.) It's sort of barely worth it. They do have a nice 90s archive.

I'm not sure that would have helped - it seems they just got really bad at managing the creation of appealing content.

I was a Netflix subscriber for its first streaming service decade or so [in Scandinavia], starting in 2011. Cancelled about a year ago. The primary concern was the the quality of new content, not the price.

Somehow, you can still downscale a scanned Kodachrome photo and it's still considered a Kodachrome photo. It's about color/LUT, not pixels.

you get colors and vibrancy that no other film or digital sensor can capture https://eng.vsco.co/reviving-kodachrome/ ?

Unusually good article. High information density. Lots of relevant hyperlinks. Includes technical details and they are actually correct.

Should have been "the design introduced with iOS 7".

So, then compare them at a similar position? A side-by-side screenshot of iOS 7, when this design was introduced: https://i.insider.com/5df902c5fd9db27769749a5f?width=1300&fo...

A reasonable start would be screen grabs of both blue and green bubbles, grabbed from the same phone in the same way. (And vertical placement; see the other comment.)
919.
by tpmx 4y ago
A comparison between blue and green bubbles on your phone would be more relevant. Color space handling makes direct comparisons between screen grabs (from different devices) tricky.

Yes, but the contrast was good. iOS 4, green Aqua-ish bubbles with black text: https://d2bs8hqp6qvsw6.cloudfront.net/article/images/750x750... iOS 5, introducing blue iMessage bubbles (still good contrast in both

22 years ago Putin said that he would not rule out joining Nato "if and when Russia’s views are taken into account as those of an equal partner". I'm sorry, but it really takes a very special kind of eh, person, to interpret

There are many ways for the civilized nations to extract payments (or at the very least, subtract value) from an wannabe superpower that's actually more of a glorified petrol station, especially if we are patient and committed about it

If Russia returned the annexed lands to Ukraine the war would be over. No need to join NATO (which is a hilarious/insane idea). Just war reparations to deal with. They will be large. Very large. And we will see to it that they are pa

One key quote/tweet (out of several): In the west, an advanced industry of NGOs, charities, and foundations has evolved which funds so much of the weirdness in our daily lives. A caste of activist-professionals have emerged, which ine

I'll just note: Having previously participated in threads about "the environment" here: The punishment is generally immediate and insanely fierce if you stray out of their Overton window on any such topic. Be aware.

I don't think many non-technical managers hang out here.

Something similar happened in Sweden around the same time. A supposedly super rich Chinese man duped a naive county super hard. It was just a very elaborate scheme to sell EU/Schengen visas to Chinese people.

It's probably that Mainsoft leak from about 22 years ago.

Wow, that's such an insane clickbait, 99% incorrect headline. I guess those RealTesla people dissing Cleantechnica were correct.
