Pink crap or blue crap, it’s all crap.
High quality stuff is marketed based on quality, it’s not sexed for no fucking reason.
Fire Procter and Gamble into the sun, they do nothing of value for the world.
Creating and deleting bookmarks is simple. You’re just lazy.
And that’s OK; it’s a victimless as a crime gets. Just own it.
Nothing will change until we burn it all down.
First burgers were actually steamed in little trays.

Spent hours playing this on some demo disk.
Everything in America except building trades has transitioned to metric already.
Even our imperial units are defined in metric.
But… PLEASE don’t tell our citizens. It will all be fine as long as we don’t tell them!
On-demand (or surge) power generation like this is much different then base power generation like you get from solar, wind or nuclear (or theoretically fusion).
Long story short, any functional power grid needs both because generation has to match demand, and demand is uneven and wonky.
The most common surge power source is small natural gas plants. This is a replacement for those.
It presumes there will be extra electricity.
There’s always extra electricity. Eg. Solar generates power during the day, charges this “battery” and then powers lighting at night when demand is higher and people need to be able to see.
Yes, but it’s almost certainly a multitude less electricity than bitcoin.

You haven’t lived until some needs a knife to open something on christmas and 5 of the 6 adult males in your family are just standing there holding their pockets knives for you to choose from.
I know an adult care nurse, she told me “everyone wipes their ass differently and they’re all convinced their way is the only way.”
Sino-Asian countries only drink hot drinks for similar reasons…
So, research shows that everyone’s voice inside their head, no matter who they are or where they’re at, is profoundly negative.
Also, you don’t have to believe it–which is oversimplifying, but that’s the jist of it.
It’s not at all unusual.
The sword was a sidearm. It was a trusty companion you had on you everyday to demonstrate your wealth and power and to be drawn in your defense if need be.
When it was time for battle, your sword would still be at your side, but in your hands would be some sort of polearm or perhaps an axe.
Also, commonly used but often forgotten about is a falchion. It was a sidearm that looked like a sword but did not require all the training in swordsmanship to be effective. Instead of being balanced like a sword to enhance the point control, a falchion was point heavy (like a machete) and swung like a hatchet.
That’s not just any frog, that’s Frog.
