California intends to sue Trump administration over deal to end offshore wind project
The whole talking point of republicans being "states to allowed to govern themself" only applies to red states. Hippocratic beyond beliefs.

Balcony solar power
As someone working in power grid, this is quite horrible. There are reasons why PV panels are installed properly at the houses, which proper disconnects etc. If there is fire and this is just plugged in, there is no way to disconnect them. If there is maintenance on the electricity, it can be danger to the electricians, because even if you disconnect the mains, there is still power.
Also these panels had very poor cyber security, their IoT platform had a bug that anyone could control them remotely in masses. Bad actor could have caused serious issues in grid level with them.

They did it once by mixing meters and feets, and crashed the Mars lander.
Edit: looked it up, wasn't actually meters vs feet, but newton-seconds vs some American eagles per gun unit for force

how to block meta from mastodon
Embrace, extend, extinguish. Only proven way to destroy decentralized, free, open source solutions.
First stage embrace might not even be malicious, but with corporations it will eventually lead to someone thinking: how can we monetize our position. It is just nature how business works.

It isn't AI, main way to know is the one guys green gloves stay on even when they are out of sight long periods of time. None of the current models can handle that.
These robots just have quite powerful motors that control arms/legs, so when it goes wrong, it can easily destroy itself with spectacular fashion.

STOP saying “fuck u/spez” START saying “FIRE STEVE HUFFMAN”
It doesn't really matter who corporate shill runs reddit, reddit is already over the edge that they only care about what is under the line. Fediverse is the future!

The betrayal... it hurts...
In my 20's, a girl in bar queue told me that she knows how to compile kernel from the source. I asked her to marry me instantly, but unfortunately she was not available.

Windows 10 reaches 70% market share as Windows 11 keeps declining
One very important detail missing here is that Windows 10 is going to be end-of-support in 2025. You won't get security updates.
It is going to be shitshow.

No no, please don't do this without eye protection. I did some grinding without eye protection, didn't hurt or anything, but day later doctor had to drill metal particles out from my eye balls.
0/10, would not recommend
and they said that I cannot get MRI ever again, because some small particles might be still inside and magnet can pull them out. Fun stuff.

Ireland’s datacentres overtake electricity use of all urban homes combined | The Guardian
Business & Industry uses over 75% of electricity in Ireland. Residential energy usage really is not that much, in any country in the world.
Same with CO2, almost all of it is created by industries.

The American dream is over: Why some first-generation Gen Zers are moving abroad
Come to Finland, we are the happiest country, and we need more people.
Summer is full of mosquitoes and in winter you don't see sun at all.
Language is hard but English is well spoken. This adds complexity to getting citizenship, but you can get permanent residency by working here for five years, unless our xenophobic party doesn't increase that to eight years.
We are quiet people unless we are drunk.
Password in the border is pronouncing Sauna correctly (sau - na, not like soona, unless you are from Savo, where it is pronounced saana).
Edit: Here is a government site that lists jobs that you can apply as foreigners and move here with visa: https://www.workinfinland.com/en/

Twitter/X new ID Verification - First Look
Reply in thread
You Americans should get to this century and start performing digital strong authentications like the rest of us. Sending picture of your ID to anyone is insane :)
How we do it here in Finland is that there are digital identity providers which use bank/mobile carrier to identify you. They then use MFA when identifying you. Any service can use these services to do strong authentication for you. And they don't cost anything for the customer, and is really cheap for the company who wants to identify you. It is also build into the law that you must identify people using these, to avoid identity theft.
