Then you probably kick ass

Suppose someone was on the fence here, and willing to hear you out instead of believing OP.

Because, as I said, while I agree with most of what you said, you’re doing a big disservice to spreading your message.

I understand very well the implications of the negative price, which is why I advocated NOT to spend trillions in nuclear, when issues of balancing demand and production can be solved for a fraction of what nuclear costs.

I agree with most of what you’re saying, but the way you’re presenting it is almost confrontational.

True, self-diagnostic in a strict sense isn’t a thing, but as you point out after, a collection of symptoms can speak to one’s experience. Finding this insight, in my case, was an eye opening moment because so many things in my past and in my day to day suddenly started to make sense.

Coming to terms with this realization is especially useful for people who have strong negative views on mental health issues, and driving people to “self-diagnostic”, as in recognizing that they may be neuro divergent, is a worthy effort.

It doesn’t replace actual professional help and diagnosis, but it’s a first step that needs to be encouraged.

This.

Also, tie together more countries’ power grids to even out production and demand of renewables, and reduce the need for other backup sources.

For a fraction of the cost of nuclear, increase the storage capacity as well. We’ve had days where the price per MWh was negative in many hours, because of excess production.

The barriers to carbon free energy aren’t technical, they’re purely political.

Data privacy AND not having to deal with more bullshit AI? Oh my, how will we ever cope with this… /s

If not frien why frien shape?

We’ve come full circle

This has been true of Christianity for centuries upon centuries. Not that it’s unique in that…

Sounds good to me. When are we starting?

You’re just hunkering down inside your bubble, while offering nothing to the conversation.

There’s a BYD stand close to where I work, I was looking at a “Dolphin” that has around 500 miles of range and costs 30k€.

That’s still twice as what’s in the meme, but they keep getting closer.

If you have some sort of grudge against China automakers, Dacia has its Spring. It costs about what’s in the meme, but with half the range though.

It’s not hard to see a future where 350 miles for 15k is a reality, but the market needs competition.

I agree with the sentiment, but my experience of capitalism is that it would not cause reduction in resource exploitation. The reduced cost because of lower demand would just make it profitable to some other industry instead, who would use up the supply.

In some cases, you can even have the government intervene, like subsidizing production to avoid loss of jobs.

It’s really a grab all you can world out there :(

Thanks for the explanation.

OP’s point is a weird flex though, like pointing out that a bicycle never runs out of gas…

Kate OMG you’re in the news!!!

Same, but Europe here. Free healthcare and mostly free education, now a decent paying job. I don’t mind paying a ton of taxes, what pisses me off is that the mega wealthy don’t.

The reason I’m paying so much in taxes isn’t that homeless guy with mental illness that needs a meal, or that immigrant that needs healthcare because his fucking asshole boss is exploiting him and not providing proper job safety.

It pains me that so many good, decent people are falling so hard for this fascist propaganda, and don’t realize they’re being swindled by the mega rich that are making more money than they ever did…

As a mildly introverted person, this sounds like hell. I’d pay a tax to be left alone
