ratten@lemmings.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Lithuanian parliament observes moment of silence to honour Charlie KirkEnglish14·23 hours agoGross.
I’m using this as a litmus test for whoever let fascist bugs into their ilk.
ratten@lemmings.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•How big a solar battery do I need to store *all* my home's electricity? - Terence EdenEnglish31·1 day agoActually, yes. Lifting the weight of a Toyota Camry 2 stories seems reasonable for a day’s worth of energy storage for a house.
I’m not sure how expensive the lift and generator will be, but the weight itself can be anything that’s sufficiently heavy.
You say chemical energy is way easier to store, but is it really easier and cheaper to store the energy needed for a home in a chemical battery?

ratten@lemmings.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Trump says he’s designating Antifa as a terrorist organizationEnglish3·2 days agoTerrorism is the enemy of the “free world” because it’s a way for those being exploited to fight back without paying into the MIC.

I actually want to see these cultures change.
Try to see things from his perspective.
He’s old and probably won’t get a chance like this again. If he didn’t take it, he could end up regretting it for the rest of his life.
He’s his own man. He wasn’t put here to meet your expectations. Since you’re 19, he’s likely already done his job of raising you.
I used to be sympathetic for the young ladies getting involved with older men, but experience has taught me that most of them are well aware of the implications and choose to go along with it anyways.
ratten@lemmings.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•Adios Chicos, 25 Years of KDE – Jonathan Riddell's Diary3·2 days agoIt’s always sad when greed wins out over ethics.
If a culture can’t keep greedy people and ideas in check, it becomes nothing more than a vessel for abuse.
I will always support those who are willing to forego profits so they can do what’s right.
ratten@lemmings.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Flying cars crash into each other at Chinese air showEnglish42·2 days agoCouldn’t people say the same shit when regular cars were new and there was an accident?
“That’s why you’ll never see thousands of them going down a highway at 80 miles an hour.” -1920s idiot who needs to get their crystal ball checked.
ratten@lemmings.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Flying cars crash into each other at Chinese air showEnglish6·2 days agoWe don’t have flying cars because technology has not progressed enough to make it economically viable for the masses.
ratten@lemmings.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Why is the name of the Microsoft Wireless Notebook Presenter Mouse 8000 hard-coded into the Bluetooth drivers?English51·2 days agoThanks, Legal Department
Another reason why I have 0 respect for anyone working in legal departments for businesses. They are unnecessary and make things worse to justify their existence.

ratten@lemmings.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•‘I’m a modern-day luddite’: Meet the students who don’t use laptopsEnglish512·2 days agoLaptops are extremely useful. It really doesn’t make sense to avoid them.
I pretty much treat mine as my second brain.
ratten@lemmings.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Campaigners urge EU to mandate 15 years of OS updatesEnglish3·2 days agoIf it’s free software, then anyone can implement the fixes themselves.
Doing so with proprietary software would be illegal.
ratten@lemmings.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Get ready to see ads on your… Samsung refrigeratorEnglish6·2 days agoThis it’s why there is nothing “smart” in my house.
Sorry, this is just a funny statement.
ratten@lemmings.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Get ready to see ads on your… Samsung refrigeratorEnglish172·2 days agoAdvertising should be illegal.
ratten@lemmings.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Get ready to see ads on your… Samsung refrigeratorEnglish181·2 days agoAll the useful idiots wasting their money on this crap are getting exactly what they deserve.
ratten@lemmings.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•How big a solar battery do I need to store *all* my home's electricity? - Terence EdenEnglish111·2 days agoHow come we can’t design energy storage that lifts something heavy when there’s excess power, and lets it fall to generate electricity when needed?
