If you’re suggesting using Nuclear as a peaker plant or to turn it off and on whenever wind/solar is not up for it then I’m sorry to say that it’s not viable. Nuclear generators don’t handle well being turned off and on.

Yeah, back in 2010 and before nuclear was the way to go but with the incredible advancements in solar and wind it’s no longer the best option.

Still shame on Germany for decommissioning nuclear reactors and deciding to build Nordstream 2 and burn coal as a replacement.

There are downsides to nuclear these days. Incredibly high cost with a massive delay before they’re functioning. Solar + wind + pumped hydro + district heating is where it’s at in 2024.

FF is doing great. All the have to do now is the Steam strategy. Do nothing and wait for the competition to fuck themselves over.

Why are people still surprised?

Maybe be more specific?

For traveling I would suggest a laptop to behave as a server but the IP address changes a lot when traveling.

I’d personally opt for something hosted at home if possible like Nextcloud and Jellyfin with static IP and port forwarding to access on the go.

Tbh though, if you just want storage on the go buying a portable 1-4TB drive that connects via USB-C is enough.

It looks interesting but I’d be very disappointed if someone expects me to eat with it.

I feel like I have to add some historical context.

We know a lot because of Roman documents and people take it for granted but the amount we know is miniscule and a lot of it is archaeology and guesswork.

The documents we have are a tiny fraction of everything written. The books we have are often referencing other books that are lost, documents are mostly lost unless by some stroke of luck end up in a sterile dry environment.

The rest was copied. Not just once, over and over, spread over large geographical areas. This is how we still have the Strategicon from the Byzantines for example.

It has taken a lot of work and many lifetimes to preserve history. Now in the age of technology the people keeping the digital past alive are called pirates.

Be proud. Future generations will thank you for pirating an absolute garbage BBC sitcom that makes reference to the working class views on Margaret Thatcher since it’ll be one of the few things they’ll have to piece together the past.

Yeah, thinks are looking nice for gaming distros. I’m not going to tinker just to have more reliable updates.

I installed Bazzite and have a couple of quirks I’m ironing out but it’s been very nice. I’m getting a HDMI dongle soon to finish my setup. :)

Just finished Home Sweet Home an hour ago. 😎
