" Itโ€™s not that they just picked something cute and accidentally the co-founder of that studio hates their whole approach from the bottom of its heart.

Remember guys, you canโ€™t afford a gas rig, or a coal mine, or a nuclear power station, but you can afford to put some cheap solar panels on your roof.

Thatโ€™s why the fossil fuel industry has spent billions trying to kill renewable energy.

The dealer needs to keep you addicted.

Iโ€™d be pressing that on many posts.

It would clutter the UI, but we really need separate: โ€œlikeโ€, โ€œsickos yesโ€, and โ€œhaha yesโ€.

That's so true--Birnam Wood will never come to Dunsinane. That's a physical impossibility. And no man of woman born? Well, that just eliminated every man from the running. Is there anything else I can help you with?

First, important for later in the story we have a collection of giant stuffies- a goose, a flamingo, an axolotl, and bear(s). They just kind of live in the building and have adventures.

โ€œhorsepower per square yardโ€œ is surely a cursed unit of measure, but it might be kinda explanatory for solar. At least in the US.

one of the most impactful visuals at CES this year was the massive Doosan booth at the center of the North Hall, with a massive gas turbine as its centerpiece

after decades of subsidized bullshit, the entire pretense that the tech sector cares in the least bit about the environment just fell away

I wonder why the US uses pounds (a weight unit), whereas metric-speaking countries use kilograms (a mass unit). Where are our slugs? Or alternatively where are their Newtons?
