No it does not feel perfectly cool for all of us. Sincerely, someone who was soaked in sweat in their own home due to high indoor temperatures like this all week.

most of the time when someone just posts a YouTube link on social media it’s a complete waste of time

Shouldn't we urgently define metrics that will allow future people to track the impact of LLMs on human cognitive abilities over time?
There are a lot of things we should urgently do for our own good. So no, we're not going to

Some Retailers Are Refusing to Sell GTA 6 Due to the Lack of a Disc

I got it as a disk for PC because I had an incredibly slow and metered internet connection. It turned out to not even have half of the game. I had to pay I think $90 to download it. And then I hated the game

Switzerland bolted 5,000 solar panels onto a dam wall 8,000 feet up in the freezing Alps. The plant now makes three times more winter power than any farm down in the valleys

Ah yes, the abstinence technique. Brilliant.
I for one like the ability to heat my home at night in the winter, not have it be >30°C inside in the summer (system has to catch up at night), keep my living space at a reasonable humidity, cook food, and use modern amenities without incurring a ridiculous cost.
There's no other way to cut it. We will need more electrical capacity than today, not less.

My state charges an EV tax at vehicle registration renewal that is substantially more than the tax that would be paid on gasoline. I'd have to drive around 5 times what I do before it starts getting close. There were talks of adding some other kind of tax too, beyond this, which would be double dipping. I'm the kind of person that would happily pay taxes although I find the execution of this poor since it is largely rooted in entrenched interests. Namely selling ethanol.
