And? That cost is constant. It shouldn’t cause fluctuations in price.

It’s not how all businesses work. Many businesses lower prices when there is a surplus. Consider filling up at the gas station for example.

It’s ridiculous that energy prices would go up when they are spending less on natural gas, coal, or whatever they are using to create the power.

Honestly crap like this is just going to encourage those that can afford it to install solar panels and backup batteries to load up on cheap electricity. Then the power company is really going to throw a hissy.

Hey Ladybird — get off Xitter and use something else like Mastadon.

Nope. They are annoying but they don’t sting humans.

Why is Google determined to kill one of its cash cows? Cramming AI into search results feels like “New Coke”.

Are they spamming people with this on computers they know don’t meet system requirements?

Slams! (take a drink)

Would be interesting to see a tear down of these to see how safe they are.

E waste is full of precious metals. You’d think someone would figure out how to recover them.

Is there a reason you can’t make toothbrushes and chopsticks in Australia?

Oh well, just mark them as work on in the next release. Then shove them to the bottom of the pile when marketing wants you to work on ten new features instead.

You could install solar panels on five million homes for that amount of money.

Im gonna laugh when it turns out there’s no “Apple car”.
