Personally I hate the “one MP per area” aspect of our system. You only have one person to raise issues with and they may not be sympathetic to your views.
Multi-member constituencies it’s much more likely that you can get your issue heard by someone who won’t dismiss you.
So trump thinks it’s about land mass, and not the people living there. Gotya.
Electrochemical batteries smooth out spikes more than anything else, but they do it really well and reduce the strain on other parts of the system.
“Storage” takes many forms though.
There’s a reason the US, Russia are so powerful and the middle east is so volatile (it’s not religion). Why do you think it’s been so hard to get the world of oil?
More energy independence across the globe. Diminished superpower influence. Diminish interest in the middle east.
20% of last year we were below 100g/kWh. That was up from 14.5% the year before. So, every year it’s becoming more and more common.
The 2030 target is to be below that level averaged over the year.
It’s not that uncommon. Last year we were below 100g/kWh (the 2030 target) for about 20% of the time. We averaged 83g today.
Chart from mygridgb.co.uk
Look over the last 12 months and you’ll see renewables are 30% over the year. 30% Gas, 15% Nuclear and 10% Biomass. The rest is imported from France (mostly Nuclear) and Norway (Hydro).
This year should see another 3GW of wind start up at Dogger Bank, with similar amount scheduled for the next couple of years. This will be more and more common.
The connectors with France only total 4GW. That’s about 10-15% of our demand. It’s s no more than a top up when it makes financial sense .
Today we were about neutral on import/export. We imported 2.5ish from France but exported just as much to The Netherlands, Ireland, Norway, Belgium and Denmark.
It’s real and not that uncommon. Windy weather, especially with sun, is very good for the UK from this perspective. It will get even better over the next 12-24 months as a number of wind farms come online.
You’re rationalising supporting a toxic company.
I’ve seen a few people say this weeks ending was abrupt. For me, I didn’t see it that way.
The plot was Mr Mackey’s journey.
Highly condensed version: Whilst counselling Clyde for his behaviour, Mr Mackey is fired. He joins ICE through desperation. Working there he does awful things but gets rewarded with a trip to mar-a-lago. When there he sees he is working for a literal Satan lover. That’s when it all hits home, and he then discovers Clyde is in the same situation as him, doing awful things because he’s desperate. Mackey rescues Clyde and they escape together with Dora the Explorer. End of episode, but Trump and his friends continue to party on.
There was a plot, with sides of puppy killing and fantasy island.
So basically everyone and every ideology has been made fun of by them at some point. As you said, edgy contrarians
It’s almost like they’re saying “don’t be an ideologue”.
Back in 2016 the final episode was called “The end of serialisation” because the election of Trump (the first time) had fucked all their plans for the season.
The couches were already fucked in Mar-a-lago.
and JD Vance Offers to Rub Baby Oil on Satan
No, he offered to lube Satan’s arsehole.
Indeed. A huge proportion of Gen X professionals were self taught children who learnt on home computers and then grew up.
CS degrees don’t teach you how to code. They teach you computer science.
So, on average, every adult in the UK has been searched for 3 times.
Not “more negatively”. A higher proportion of that group view it the same amount of negative.
You can blame the people selling the AI.
The even harsher military action by the Israeli army in the Gaza Strip […] makes it increasingly difficult for the German government to see how these goals will be achieved.
(Emphasis mine)
Is that a bad translation? I hope so, otherwise he seems to be saying if Israel could be successful he would support it.
Edit: I think it’s quoting without context and he’s referring to the goals of “the release of Israeli hostages and purposeful negotiations toward a cease-fire in the 22-month conflict”.
Interesting. Debian is supporting RV64GC whereas Ubuntu is targeting RVA23.
