Here’s my low-stakes conspiracy take: If Intel felt it would be profitable to fight back against this, they would have. He forms an optimal scapegoat for their ongoing issues and this allows for the company to restructure without much impedance.
Firing their CEO “normally” may have otherwise meant a further tanking of Intel’s share price, at a time they can I’ll afford it.
You sound like me at uni. If you can, go and try get your exam deferred, take a decisive week break and get back to it at a pace that works better for you.
I have 4-5 realllly dark spots on my transcripts because of my stubbornness. Didn’t help in job searching very much.
Most non-americans I know use a toaster, not a toaster oven. These require quite a bit less space and are significantly quicker than bread & pan method (also lower calorie, because you don’t need to butter or oil the bread before “cooking”).
For those of us who eat toast on the daily, a standard English style toaster is absolutely essential.
You hit the nail on the head:
Don’t get me wrong, I am absolutely anti “AI baked into my operating system and cell phone so that it can monitor me and sell me crap”. If that’s what being Anti AI is…to that I say Amen.
Most cases in consumer ai, it’s data harvesting gone haywire and it’s not being implemented to benefit society.
From what I see, very few people are stupid enough to blanket hate it, but it is overhyped and being used maliciously.
Oh? Is the orange man building nuclear plants and high speed rail at a rapid pace and for super cheap?
No, he is drilling for oil & gas because it’s readily available and aligns with his party’s vision of national interest.
No? Then can you explain to me why this comment is relevant at all? I’m aware that China has shitty policies in regards to some minorities, but are you insinuating that’s the reason they’re able to build infrastructure so quickly?
China is building energy independence to be able to act geopolitically independent, not to be a saviour of the world (i.e. national interest). They can do it quickly domestically because no one can stand in their way. The current republican party is creating a framework to also reduce the amount of resistance they face when enacting their vision.
I’m not asking for anyone to feel bad for macroeconomics… Just not to indiscriminately believe that overreach is a good thing when it happens to align with our own interests.
It’s a similar reach that a certain loud orange man is trying to instill E.g.. As long as it doesn’t directly negatively impact your life, you probably won’t notice too much.
Also a completely integrated local and low-cost supply chain, unlimited access to cheap physical labour and an incredible government overreach to ensure every company is towing the same line.
To further note:
The authors caution that nuclear power is still not cheap
May I ask why? I’ve never felt it was really a necessary feature.
I love scam posts. They just make me all warm and fuzzy inside!
And not because of the clearly scammy nature of it all, but mostly because it means that there are sufficient users of Lemmy to make it worthwhile to try and scam 🥰
So, thank you Matrecovery and RaymondBucks079, for letting us all know that the lemmy is infact well and truly alive.
Thanks for pointing this out. It is imperative that people understand the reality of the energy transition and move away from the spotty doomsday or otherwise reporting on the topic.
Australia is the 5th largest natural gas exporter and 2nd largest coal exporter and therefore a significant impacter of climate change.
It, and all the other fossil fuel nations, should do significantly more than offer a small number of places for those impacted by climate change.
Within an infinitely long timeline, yes. Transitions take time and few are willing to take the immediate financial (and thus political hit) to do so.
One example is pharmaceutical companies, which represent a significant portion of goods produced in Europe. There is no market similar to the US where prices and consumption are both significantly high, so I would argue they would simply take a significant hit.
Economics is rarely done in long term thought because political cycles rely on economic performance. It’s stupid, but here we are…
Don’t forget oil and gas. Europe has pretty much been living of US gas the last 3 years. lazy link
Yeah the requirements are for USB-C power delivery for devices capable of charging @ (if I remember correctly) > 15W.
The requirement was placed in the radio equipment directive of the EU so unlikely they will amend it to add requirements for USB-C cabled data transmission.
They did 2 things well (from an economic perspective) in my vaguely shit memory:
It paved the way for a lot of long running, high budget tv shows like heroes, supernatural etc…
I also severely disliked it.
While I think your comment is over simplifying the issue, there is strangely little mention that people’s animosity toward Musk are responsible for the downturn. Tesla used to be almost the only premium EV available, now there are significant numbers of competitors.
Additionally, there are too many people with similar views to him in Europe to consider it purely a revolt against him
I’m sorry. Why are we talking about biodiversity loss with solar? Who is cutting down forests or clearing land to put in panels?
I only see them on rooftops, car parks, farmland (where they have the benefit of adding shade.) etc.
I’m all for more deployment, but no need to shit on non-“floatovoltaics” - rad name btw
Batteries!
