I have parents that love me to bits, but their strategy to get me to do my homework was... adversarial? It felt like they were checking my performance, just like the teachers were. It didn't feel like they were on my side, even though I'm sure they were.

Getting told off even gently felt like an unbearable punishment for some reason. I read something recently about adhd folks being more sensitive to negative interactions?

And that's how I became a pathological liar and master of masking!

the amount of batteries we'd need would require an insane amoint of lithium, plus lithium ion batteries don't last that long and need to be replaced after a few years of heavy use

There's nothing wrong with getting a battery, especially if you have solar panels. What I'm saying is we can't cover everybodys needs with them right now, both economically and materially.

What industry are you talking about?

Managing an energy grid is an incredible feat of engineering and the fact that some countries have basically 24/7 constant voltage electricity is nothing short of a miracle.

And yes I will trust the academics and engineers who have spent ages documenting these processes and building the solutions. I studied this for a while at university. Every professor in that field is an environmentalist and guess what they still taught us about the issues with solar and wind instability and energy storage.

most armchair ass comment I read all day lmao

Da hilft kein Schütteln und kein Klopfen, in die Hose geht der letzte Tropfen.

The negative prices indicate instability in the whole energy system, that's not necessarily a capitalism thing. Don't get me wrong I hate capitalism and love sun and wind energy, but many people are ignorant about the fluctuations and the fact that energy storage is not a solved problem right now.

Penis owner here, I used to do 1just to dab the tip cuz that's what my dad did but learned later that nobody else does it and stopped.

whoever invented all those dashes... I just wanna talk

You gotta press that spot behind ur balls, kinda moving back to front, and it comes out. This secret arcane knowledge was lost for millenia in my lineage, no longer passed down man to man. A kind stranger on the internet shared it with me.

Scientists: Hi here is a physical, technical, materially real limitation of most renewables that most of you should know about by now.

Shitforbrains shitter leftie: must be capitalism

In this thread: a bunch of armchair energy scientists who think they've solved the energy storage problem all on their own.

comedy homicide, the OP is funnier on its own :')
