Oh Canada 🇨🇦 Three day weekend!

Sure, here you go.

There are dozens of us.

I’m not sure what to take from this second half, is protest only valid if it happens under a set of circumstances and targets you’ve chosen? Is protest by a westerner invalid if they don’t take a net zero canoe to India or China or Saudi Arabia to deface something there? Surely not.

Just a note for anyone disagreeing with the sentiment of my last line. I would have agreed with you a year or two ago, but then I read Martin Luther King’s Letter from the Birmingham jail and it changed my mind entirely on the nature of protest, nessecary tension, and the role of so called moderates in perpetuating injustice.

Give the letter a read, hear some analysis on it, it might change your mind like it did mine.

Nothing really, but the protest does shine a light on humanities superficial respect for historically important monuments and cultural sites especially when it comes to climate change.

Stonehenge is a culturally important site, no doubt about it, and the reaction to the protest has been swift and strong and includes criminal charges. But the same state that condemns these actions in the harshest terms is timid in the face of the much more destructive acts of climate change.

Where is the outrage over the climate driven erosion of the Cliffs of Dover? Or the surge risk to the tower Of London? Or Orkney Islands? Not even to mention the risks to human health, food production, invasive species, and fires.

Personally, I’m done carrying water for big oil and climate deniers by focusing on the method of protest instead of the message.

Having read the story, this is just the newest iteration of the 90s 800 sex line jobs. We invent some new kind of communication and it immediately is used to seperates horny people from their money.

I just want you to know this is one of my favorite comments of all time.

I look for broken but working sff/tiny deals. Scored a sweet i5 7500 /16gb system for $100CAD. Just had a broken audio port I was never going to use.

I’ll try this.

I pretty much never use them, don’t have the right hand shape and grip for it.

Ish, over the medium to long term Nvidia will have to start paying dividends that align with the cost of the share. Otherwise the market will leave for better paying, lower cost stocks.

The vitriol is unreal, you’ll get it just for asking for the vegan option at lunch.

Pretty much only pirate when something isn’t on QoBuz.

I remember the last time the power went out bad, hurricane Fiona, I had a full battery while everyone else was in the long lines for gas during the hour or two a day they had the station generator running to keep the pumps working.

I was fine, thanks so much for caring, I really appreciate the thoughtful concern you’ve shown here.

It’s the last thing, internal Combustion engine engine, they produce smaller internal Combustion engines on every stroke.

Thank you for your genuine interest in electricity generation in my local area. The electricity mix where I’m from is a combination of wind, nuclear, and hydro electric. In emergencies we have a backup combustion system that will kick in. My power company publishes a neato dashboard all about it, it’s actually at most 1/6th and usually 1/12th or lower g/MWH CO2 VS coal fired power production.

But curiously enough, even if it were run entirely on coal, my electric car would still produce much less CO2 over its lifespan, and have the potential to get cleaner as grids improve, since gasoline is so much more CO2 intense and Ice engines are so mature without much more room for serious efficiency gains.

I’m super glad you were curious enough to ask me such open ended questions, and really happy that my work in this area gave me the knowledge to answer your obviously genuine questions. Now you can be proud to know something you didn’t know a few minutes ago becuase of your open mindedness.

People are literally dropping dead in a climate change driven 48C heat wave in India, and right wing people are wondering how many libs they will trigger with their I heart oil bumper stickers.

Yes, no desire for all the things that will have to come with this upgrade. I want a huge boost, so sitting out this first wave.

Yea here’s hoping. I’m skipping the 7000 series parts and sticking with my 5800x3d, I really want a higher core part that still has all the single ccd x3d advantages, since I game and do CPU heavy work on the same rig.
