Healthy optimism

Not everything that isn’t ublock is automatically bad. Especially if you just want an adblocker and not also all the other stuff it comes with

Holding spacebar pressed used to play the video at half speed, due to pausing and unpausing extremely quickly

Now it plays the video at double speed, meaning that I have to set playback speed manually when I want to watch in slow motion

I can see this being preferable in the long run, but damn if it isn’t annoying in the present

That’s a remarkably terrible Wikipedia article

Not the visa or MasterCard kinds that you can give to sites like this. It happens rather often that I want to throw money at the internet, but simply can’t. Other examples are Wolfram alpha and chatgpt plus

Oh, PayPal works. Thanks

Checked the link. I literally can’t buy it as a European

Because credit cards are a scam I refuse to partake in, and they seem to only accept American bank transfers

Maybe I missed some points by skimming, but the arguments made in that article are that:

• 1 Australian researcher agrees with his stance

• a region had 22% of its power produced by wind at one point

I guess the claim “it can be argued” is technically proven true, but the majority opinion I keep hearing from the electrical grid engineers in the news is the opposite

And, well, sometimes it just simply is night, and sometimes the wind doesn’t blow. We don’t have the battery tech to run from storage alone

But, honestly why wouldn’t we use nuclear? It’s the one power source we have without any real downsides untill ITER finally brings positive results

That’s… actually relatively close
