The most Linux response. Linux doesn’t fit your use case? Clearly your use case is wrong! /s

First time I’ve seen somebody acknowledge that it’s not just nation states with such capabilities. There are some huge organized crime syndicates.

I’m not arguing for or against your point. But it’s actually a difference of 48.576 kB to be pedantic

My female roommate has similar issues. If she deepens her voice it works.

You can get a Pi that can do voice to text and NLP, maybe it can even do it with reasonable speed.

You can get a Pi that is $35.

But you won’t get a Pi that is $35 which can do voice to text and NLP with reasonable speed.

When you say “Android devices” you’re talking about devices that are like, 5-10x the price of the nest mini. Of course they’re capable.

He’s getting downvoted but he’s right.

The hubris of a dev thinking they can solve a non tech problem with tech that they know nothing about, it’s almost unmatched.

The solution is not more fuel efficient or fuel alternative cars, it’s the replacement of cars entirely (where reasonable). But you can’t shock that, because it requires infrastructure which literally doesn’t exist in much of North America, and is severely lacking in the rest of it.

Great Britain does not include Northern Ireland. This raises the question, “what is the difference between Great Britain and Britain?”

The distinction, when it is made, is that Great Britain is the entity encompassing the three nations on the island of Britain. Sometimes the distinction is not made, and in that case Great Britain is used for both.

So a bunny rabbit is a bunny coney?

The people who don’t have any money can’t vote for anybody who is good about this because that’s how it’s designed. It’s not our fucking fault.

I mean it is; that we haven’t taken power directly.

It’s not 10-20 years of construction AND 10-20 years at a loss, it’s 10-20 years of construction at a loss. Not great, but up to 40 years as you suggest sounds a lot worse because it’s a misrepresentation.

And you would be running 10-20 years of gas and coal power plants in addition to the renewables if you’re not in a suitable area for hydro because suitable grid scale energy storage solutions literally don’t exist. Maybe they will in 10-20 years, but would you bet on a maybe or go with nuclear which we know will work as a baseload?

Nuclear (with the exception of France because they’re special) is limited to being a base load as you alluded, but power demand varies throughout the day. Nuclear can’t vary on a 24 hour scale to follow the load so we need renewables and energy storage or hydroelectric to make up the difference. That’s what “nuclear OR renewables” misses

You cannot run the entire grid on entirely renewable. We physically don’t have enough lithium in the world to make the batteries for it, and even if you don’t use lithium there would be untold ecological destruction to extract the rare earths.

Renewable and hydroelectric is a solution but not viable everywhere and hydro also causes massive ecological destruction

Nuclear plants are immensely profitable, just not on time scales politicians are interested in. You’re deep in the red for 10-20 years and then after that it prints money

The US needs to legalize it first

It depends on a number of factors: outdoor temperature, the model of car, whether climate control is used. At temperatures of an average January daytime high where I live, using climate control, range can decrease by 40% and anecdotally my model is even higher.

How do you follow hashtags?
