Just chiming in, because I had never heard a water heater referred to as a “geyser” before. I was very confused about the application of an electrically heated hole in the ground.

Don’t google that by the way…

The link you decided not to follow gives a lot of context. Although in French, which I do not speak.

These people weren’t murdered at Dachau. They are being cremated there, after dieing aboard the prisoner transport train from the Royallieu-Compiègne internment camp.

The German Wikipedia about the Sonderkommando photographs describes those as the only surviving photos taken by prisoners inside the camps.

Perhaps a Doro? They have both dumb-phones and simplified smartphones. https://www.doro.com/en-gb/products/mobile-phones/

Is it just me, or does this image look fake as hell? Especially the cardboard box.

I’ll tell you hwat!

That depends on where you live though. Here in Denmark, as an example, we have a certificate called “Statskontrolleret økologisk” which basically translates to “Government-certified organic”. There are specific guidelines and rules that need to be followed, to be allowed to use this seal on your product.

I find myself thinking this a lot. Someone goes; “and that’s my theory about…” And I’m like; that’s not a theory, that’s a hypothesis…

Personally I’ve had really good luck with the Netgear Nighthawk R7000 and R7800 models. They are supported by openWRT as well if you are into that. An issue might be that they are “only” WiFi 5 units. Some of the newer models in the Nighthawk series might be just as good, but i don’t have personal experience with those…

Softmaker Freeoffice has worked brilliantly for me. It’s very familiar if you are used to Microsoft Office, and it seems to do the compatibility part very, VERY well.

What a retarded, fear mongering headline. Nothing even happened! A tiny amount of water has sloshed over the edge of two fuel cooling pools INSIDE the containment area. During a freaking earthquake. I’m pretty sure that is entirely expected and within operating parameters for a plant like this.

Now I’m not really a big fan of nuclear power in general, but this is dumb…

There is honestly more than enough potential in her sisters’ stories for several movies. Especially their service during the great war as HMHS Britannic and “Ol’ reliable” HMT Olympic

FFS… They could at least fucking skim the report they are writing about. It’s not 40%, it’s 28%…

The total global electricity consumption, from all sources, including renewables, was 28 500 TWh in 2022, a 2.5% increase compared with 2021 (and a 25% increase compared with ten years earlier, 2013) (EMBER, 2023). According to IRENA (2023b) the percentage of electricity consumption met by RE was 27.8% in 2022, up from 27.6% in 2021. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA) (2023), demand is expected to grow by slightly less than 2% in 2023.

I’m honestly surprised, that there are not more Americans loudly calling the Scandinavian countries communist. Being some of the most socialist countries in the world.

Honestly; instead of trying to tighten emissions restrictions (perhaps beyond feasible levels?), the EU should have just moved this date closer…

Edit: I just realized: I wonder how the ban affects all the talk about synthetic and bio-fuels? Those are still based on internal combustion. Then again; although ideally CO2-neutral, they still emit NOx and particulate.

I feel that, at some point, the emissions standards get so restrictive, that it makes them impossible to practically meet. Making it a ban in all but name. I’m not familiar enough, with the original proposal for Euro7. But it seems like it might be at that threshold. The European Union needs to make up their mind, whether or not they want to allow combustion vehicles at all…

So; murder everyone who isn’t, or isn’t willing to become, Christian?

Gadget Hackwrench basically… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
