This, seriously !
When I was going to youth camp (2-3 weeks camping in the forest every summer plus weekend during the years) I realize that the mood of a team during the bad time (cold, wet from the rain, no hot shower for days …) was strongly related to how good the cook was.
Probably diplomatic passport holder.
The yearly average for Spain in 2023 is 160g CO2/kWh (yellow).
25% of their electricity was produced with wind, 22% nuclear, 16% solar and 10% hydro. And also 22% of gas that brought their CO2 up.
This is a huge win compared to gold mining.
Gold mining is using cyanure and caustic soda (in the best case, the worst case is using boiling mercury)
Yes, the map sources try to include the CO2 emissions of all the chain.
When doing that you see that nuclear still has very low emissions. Nuclear is a lot of CO2 emissions for construction but after that there is not much. The fact that most of the French nuclear reactor are almost 40 years old means that the impact of construction is already diluted.
Uranium mining is polluting, yes, but you need so little that it does not really have a big impact on the CO2/kWh ratio. 1kg of natural uranium produce as much energy as 14,000kg of coal !
What is interesting on this map is that right now the green countries either have a lot of nuclear, a lot of hydroelectricity or both. Country with a lot of wind and solar struggle to meaningfully lower their CO2 emissions. I think it will come but right now the backup power used for when solar and wind production are low is often polluting and counterbalance the low emissions of renewable energy.
I love that Herzog made the documentary “My Best Fiend” AFTER Kinski’s death.
I’m fascinated by this director and the actor.
They hated each other, were constantly fighting to the point Kinsky almost killed Herzog but they still shot 5 movies together in the most impossible locations.
At one point one of the native chief they were working with offered to kill Hinsky. Herzog declined the offer because he still needed the Hinsky to finish the movie.
For Fitzcarraldo they bought 3 similar 320 tons steamboat. They actually pulled the boat uphill manually without any special effects. Then in the scene were the boat crashed in the rapid they actually crashed the boat on rapid while filming inside. Half of the people involved in the filming of this sequence ended up injured.
Two plane crashed during the movie … Honestly I fell like what happened behind the scenes of the movie is even more fascinating and dramatic than the movie itself.
I recently found one of the liveCD I received with Ubuntu 8.04 on it. Canonical was sending them for free for people interested in Linux.
I was in high school and tried it on my first computer, it was my first connect with Linux and honestly I think that without Ubuntu I would not have discovered Linux until much later in life.
The advantage of a cargo van is that everything you carry is protected from the elements and theft.
Its interesting to see the cultural difference between the US and Europe. In Europe pickup truck are quite rare but cargo vans are everywhere.
I imagine the meeting at SpaceX.
The HR manager : So, now that the production is ramping up for Starship in Texas, most of our investments are there and most of our workforce is there already.
Should we move our headquarters there too ? We are getting some good incentives from the Texas government but moving everyone will be tough …
Musk stumbling in the meeting room while looking at his phone
What are we talking about ?
HR manager : moving our headquarter to Texa…
Musk: Right ! because if the trans law of California !
HR: not really, it’s more becau…
Musk: Let me post that on X leaves the room while typing on his phone
Après ce qu’il a du dépenser pour garder ses cheveux je pense que ce sera pas pour tout de suite.
The Nun biting sound like the first nun had rabies and started contaminating the others nuns.
He could be seeing a speech therapist in too, but one is giving him technique and exercise in how to improve and the other is helping him get practice.
I think it’s more “Most consumers hate the idea of a bad, unhelpful customer service”.
I’m fine with AI if it was actually helping to solve my issue, but it is generally not the case.
It’s not a new Fallout game, it’s a mod from independent developers so you can except a higher standard.
It releases on my birthday !
I don’t think I have a choice then, I’ll have to get it on day one.
Je suis content d’avoir acheté ma voiture au début de l’année.
J’aurais bien aimé acheter une voiture électrique française ou européenne mais au moment ou j’ai acheté c’était au moins 50% plus cher pour une voiture de taille équivalente ou inférieur.
Du coup vu mon budget c’était
J’ai choisi l’électrique chinoise vu que les voiture thermiques sont sur la sortie er que ça même si ça fait un plus gros budget d’achat ça permet de réduire le budget mensuel lié aux déplacements.
Et évident en premier la considération écologique même si je pense que entre voiture thermique et électrique c’est un peu bonnet blanc, blanc bonnet.
Composing is really easy once you understand one basic rule: if it smell you have to much humid nitrogen.
Add a good amount of carbon to it and the smell will be gone the next day. Carbon can be dry leaves, cardboard, wood … Usually “brown” material.
The is the exact same thing in dry toilet or chicken coop, if it smell bad add some carbon to it to bring back the balance between nitrogen and cardboard.
For people interested an extensive report by French appliance store after sale service. It gives the reliability of each brand. There is a note for the reliability, ease and cost of repair.
It’s only in French unfortunately : https://www.darty.com/achat/services/barometre-sav/barometre.html
From my experience it’s quite good in the Caribbean and it’s getting better.
