leds, to world in Germany has too many solar panels, and it's pushed energy prices into negative territory

It is also an incentive to shift demand when there is plenty of renewable power: charge your car , do the laundry and so on

leds, to 196 in Rule

Only if they are consenting?

leds, to politics in I was detained at a US airport and asked about Israel and Gaza for 2 hours. Why? | Ilan Pappé

Wasn’t it also 100 mile zone around international airports too?

leds, to buildapc in every worsening cascade of problems...

Yeah no idea

leds, to relationship_advice in Struggling to tolerate wife's haircut

Please remember that not identifying as a woman anymore doesn’t always mean that they identify as a man, can just as well be anywhere in between or neither. So that wouldn’t necessarily change your relationship, they are still the same person.

leds, to world in Germans fear migration more than climate change, study finds

Some explain these people that climate chance is going to cause a lot more migration if not addressed

leds, to world in Why Germany ditched nuclear before coal—and why it won’t go back

I’m on renewable crack, you should try it sometimes. I promise it is only slightly addictive.

My point is that nuclear is only good for base load unless there is storage and if you want to use renewables to cover peak demand then you also need storage. but if you have storage then there is no reason not to use 100% renewables

You can also chose to use 100% nuclear, either enough to cover peak demand (and throw away the rest when not needed) or in combination with storage. It just going to be so much more expensive…

leds, to world in Why Germany ditched nuclear before coal—and why it won’t go back

Nuclear is not an option since it can not be scaled up and down fast enough to follow changes in demand (or the changes in very predictable renewable output) , so you’re left with pumped storage, grid interconnectivity , and demand shifting until we can cheaply use the excess in renewables to make synthetic fuels.

leds, to linux in Repairing bad sectors in an external drive

Use ddrescue to copy to a working disk, if I remember it will try a number of times and eventually skip the broken sectors so that at least you have a working filesystem on the copy.

leds, to privacy in Microsoft is silently installing Copilot onto Windows Server 2022

My winows 11 work laptop , fully managed by IT the department also has Xbox stuff installed…

leds, to 196 in stop the government from ruling you

Not so crazy as it looks

Because each tire transmits a unique identifier, vehicles may be easily tracked using existing sensors along the roadway.[19] This concern could be addressed by encrypting the radio communications from the sensors but such privacy provisions were not stipulated by the NHTSA.

leds, to linux in tell me your experience using zfs/btrfs

At some, long ago, the Ubuntu installer was offering to use zfs for the boot and root partitions. That sounded like a good idea and worked great for a long time, automatic snapshots, options to restore state at boot etc.

Until my generous boot partition started to run out if space with all the snapshots (which were setup automatically and no obvious way to configure) OK no big deal, write a bash script that finds the old snapshots and delete them manually whenever boot is full again.

Then one day recently my laptop wouldn’t boot anymore, Grub could no longer read the zfs on boot. Managed to boot with USB installation image, read zsf and chroot. Tried alot of things but in the end killed zfs and replace with ext4. Then made it boot again.

Apparently I’m not the only one with this issue.
