  • Europe has survived 3 energy shocks in 4 years. The only way out is to stop buying power from its enemies

  • Can we do some calculations for worst case, ie winter week with clouds at best? How much does a single household consume when using heat pumps for warming? That would be at least 30kWh per day just for heating. Let's round it to 40kWh pet day which makes 280kWh per week. Shall we add an EV car into equation? 140kWh? We are at 420kWh per week you might need to back up with batteries. Now multiply this number with millions of households. Or simply take a look at electric energy consumption in your country during winter days (when many don't even have heat pumps and EVs) and you think there is enough batteries around and is simply a matter of price? Good luck with that. Wind and hydro would help to some extent, though.

  • That's nowhere near enough. It's magnitudes away.

  • Unless we figure out energy storage, it will never be a solution.

  • Isn't it easier then just to use a (keepass) file? Also we carry phones around where we need secrets, too etc.

  • Yes, but unless we figure out how to store a ton of electric energy, renewables are limited in use and somehow counterproductive as it makes energy cheaper during sunny days and thus making nuclear even more expensive (due to the fact that nuclear can't be easily throttled). 🤷

  • Fingers crossed that a cornered monster situation doesn't end in a blood bath.

  • Or, ya know, build on self-sustainable sources.

  • I can.

  • Any multi drug resistant illness is a big problem. Interesting and not good about TB not being effective. TIL

  • Damn, I really wish they elect the f**k out Orbán and then persecute him for all the crimes and grifting committed.

  • Hard to distinguish who is the robot in the image.

  • CPU shortage is 'getting more serious day by day, no less than the memory chip situation' says unnamed gaming PC company

  • I've been listening for this inevitable crash for some time now, but nothing yet. Crossing fingers. Eventually we will all need CPUs, disks, RAM etc.

  • Slovenia decides against joining ICJ case because of their Israeli cyber-security systems

    Jump

  • Only to certain extent, though, we didn't do real steps (excluding Eurovision boycott) - i.e. our universities are still cooperating with Israeli counterparts (even those involved in war industry), Israelis representatives were never summoned etc., but we were always very concerned 🤷. But you are right, it's more surprising that they caved, even based on this stance. So a lot of people wonders what was the real reason behind it. It was certainly something at government, not party, level.

  • Britain responds to Iran war energy shock by requiring solar panels and heat pumps in all new homes

    Jump

  • They created huge pollution by switching off nuclear power. And now they are stuck between fossil fuels and renewables. Which still pollutes a lot and it'll hardly get much better, let alone zero emissions. They also bet on h2 only to scrap or postpone it. Which gives what?

  • Iran received a ceasefire plan from the US but Tehran dismisses idea of negotiating with Washington

    Jump

  • Exactly, also inbound marines are clearly telling that US won't negotiate in good faith.

  • This is merely a speculation, the real reason is not known as the "we are so much against genocide" central left won't tell. Ironically, far right, which is very much pro genocide (and almost won the elections), is accusing them for caving to Israel because assumingly Israel blackmailed them with something.
