I’ve seen this so often before and I still don’t understand why they didn’t just build an ordinary roundabout. It’s just six roads that meet there. That’s not beyond ordinary roundabout capabilities. Who said “you know what, let’s just do a circular arrangement of five roundabouts here, that’s so much better than what people are used to”?

I don’t want slimmer, I want smaller! Give me back my 4.5" screen 😩

She?

Today, strong AI prompting is simply an expected skill, not a stand-alone role.

If a company tells me they expect me to be good at writing prompts at least I know I can dodge that bullet and just never ever work there. Nice.

Bagger Bagger!

Chiming in on this… Installed home energy in Europe. Close to the coast, so rather windy. Rather far to the north, so not that sunny. Home solar usually pays for itself after 6 to 10 years, with installations usually being guaranteed to last 20 and of course usually lasting even longer. Home wind is a niche that doesn’t pay for itself within the lifetime of the turbine. You’re always better off just installing more solar and more storage unless you’re building a 200m high wind power plant that essentially always generates enough energy for a small city. We opted for a solar solution with about 10 kWh storage and an energy management system that charges the battery during the winter when prices are low (usually at night when the large turbines nearby are running). The turbines can’t compete with ordinary energy pricing, they sure as hell can’t compete with a system that grabs electricity at its cheapest from the grid. It’s just not worth it.

Just be constipated at work. Get paid to browse memes.

So you’re spewing irrelevant nonsense just to ridicule people who call you out on your irrelevant nonsense by telling them you know it’s irrelevant nonsense?

The Xperia compact series were dream devices. 😩

I really hate that I think this might be an option for me, just because I’d really like a phone with a small screen and flip phone with outside screens that you just leave closed seem to be the only fucking option to get one.

Your point is purely anecdotal. I see lots of Teslas where I live, so there’s that. I also see more BEVs than PHEVs, which is also in line with sales figures.

So, to be blunt, I think your perception is skewed or wrong.

Sir, this is a Wendy’s the comic strips community.

I’ll have two ingots of that, please.

Warhammer and Warhammer 40k.

Yeeeeessss! You’re the best!

I can’t imagine going out dancing like I used to.

Man, a few weeks ago I came across this comic that ended with that burnt out mother staring at a plane like “that was me, I used to go places”. That would have been so fitting here for your comment, but I just can’t find it. Just imagine I cross referenced a funny comic here. If you know which one I’m talking about, please help me out.

This, no?

That was discontinued after two iterations. Was going to switch to ios just for their mini range after years of Android, then saw that they got rid of small phones as well. Like, what would I gain by switching ecosystems if I know that the next phone is still going to be huge?

BTW, I settled for an S24, which is considered “small” now but still way too big, but at least Samsung has a decent one handed mode that doesn’t hide half of your screen like ios or stock android but instead decreases the whole screen to bearable sizes:

Still feels like the damn clown mask meme, where, after years of increasing phone sizes, they now add a stupid software feature to virtually decrease screen size to remain usable.

Yes, that is why people unironically do drugs.

The point is that societies or governments should have more foresight than just to the next high.

As for nuclear energy, it is cost competitive with renewables

I call bullshit. Here are my sources, where are yours?
