‘Shaping’ is one word - but creating 90% of, or fundamentally driving or something so much more significant seems more fitting

The winners of the five plots in the tender for the public heavy-duty vehicle charging network at unmanned motorway service areas in Germany have now been announced

You could understand this sort of incredibly short sighted greed fueled stupidity if the AI industry was highly profitable. It isn't. It won't be. Going to be able to get great deals on generators in the future. But you won't need one because solar plus batteries are cheaper. And clean.

"Compared with turbines, reciprocating engines tend to be smaller, less efficient, more emissions heavy and require more frequent maintenance. " More emissions heavy. Odd word choice but yet indeed these are highly polluting generators that will be spewing methane and toxins everywhere.

Another chapter in the greed and stupidity chronicles of the AI boom. "Vantage Data Centers, for example, plans to use 620 units of Jenbacher engines—with a total capacity of 2.58 gigawatts—at its Stargate Frontier campus in Texas" gift link

Er is geen echt overschot. Zodra er opslag is is stroom beschikbaar voor nuttiger aanwending. Bijna niemand heeft een lucht-lucht dual use en met reden want inefficient/ongeschikt voor brede toepassing.

1. Er is geen stigma 2. AC is geen oplossing voor klimaatverandering 3. Tunnelvisie leidt tot uitstel andere maatregelen 4. Stroom is schaars 5. Hittedodenstatistiek is zwak

Boudry denkt dat vaccins symptoombestrijding zijn. Als je bereid ben de hele fauna uit te roeien misschien.

Maar dat China relatief gezien zo goed scoort komt natuurlijk niet door nucleair maar door zon en wind. Zoals iedereen weet is nucleair ook helemaal geen oplossing voor Europa want veel te duur en niet op tijd beschikbaar. Try better next time, ecomodernist.

Google's GHG emissions jumped 18% last year, while water use rose 34%

Far superior to most of what is written on the subject, essential reading for those in the UK on the pro-EU side. Though I'd add a preface, that the UK will always be negotiating with the EU, will not get special deals, and cannot deregulate to prosperity. The UK is trapped.

Why is the russian military making fatal tactical errors on the frontline? A widespread practice known as "assaulting on credit" where commanders exaggerate territorial gains in official reports is completely warping the russian HQ maps and costing them dearly 🧵 1/5 fronts.co/article/exag...

KEEP YOUR CAMERA STRAIGHT, RUSSIAN !

Maar de grap is dat compromisloze kwaliteit, ruim en groen en op fietsafstand van het werk ook toen al alleen betaalbare woningen opleverde via het mecenaat.

Russian losses ‼️

🔥 The strategic defense enterprise Scientific Research Institute of Physical Measurements (JSC NIIFV) was attacked in Penza. It is part of Roscosmos and develops critically important sensor equipment for the Russian Iskander, Bulava, and Topol-M missile systems.

🇺🇦 Zelensky: Our sanctions reached Ufa oil refinery. 1,300km from the front line. Penza region, our weapons have reached a strategic facility of the Russian military-industrial complex, which is engaged in the development and production of components for missile weapons. 600 km from the front line.

Het dossier luchtvaart is al decennialang een vast en prominent onderdeel van het VVD-beleid. De Kamer vraagt waarom de regering (Karremans, VVD) doorgaat met een besluit dat volgens rechters, toezichthouders en onafhankelijke experts op drijfzand berust

Ik lees over Legally Blonde, nooit gezien gelukkig maar wat naast alle cliche's opvalt is dat advocaten in dat geprakte Hollywoodbrein altijd strafadvocaten zijn. Theater dus, en weinig juristerij, want zo ziet de kijker het graag. Nooit met fiscaal-advocaten of mededingingsrecht.

Nee, het was pompen of verzuipen en in zo'n situatie is er geen ruimte voor 843 maatwerkstudies en praatclubs van een beetje meer dit en een beetje minder dat. Mensen stierven bij bosjes, terwijl de zorg op haar tandvlees liep.

Waar ik zelf overheen las: de redacteur van de Volkskrant noemt in het artikel over de zaak Donker ook nog de naam van de rechter. Totaal not-done. Overbodige informatie die slechts de indruk geeft dat de redacteur dit als een persoonlijke vete opvat.

Hahahaha

The price cycles today in Florida and Michigan are absolutely wild to me and nearly impossible to justify with retail prices over $1/gal higher than spot/wholesale price. Though taxes, transportation, etc need to be added, this is a very lofty mark and is extremely frustrating.

Ukrainian attacks on Russian refiners are increasingly accurate, knocking down refining capacity and cutting exports and making Russia import, putting global pressure on refined products. plus a massive heat wave in the US, but the Prez has a dececnt point on retail prices. "gauging" maybe less so

HEAT WAVE: extreme heat can hit refinery output. higher cooling water temps and hotter equipment can force refiners to throttle back. with a heat dome baking the midwest/east through july 4 and refineries already near max, even a modest slowdown adds pressure on supplies.

Obligatory "guy having fun" pic, of course.

"thanks to fatal delusions" This could be used to explain many of the problems in the U.S. these days.

Oman will not unilaterally give permission for the European naval stabilization force to operate in the Strait. If the force is to be involved in mine clearance, then the permission of Iran needs to be sought. maritime-executive.com/article/oman...

Russia is now allowing the sale of lower quality gasoline and it is immediately destroying people's cars.

While waiting in line for gasoline for 12 hours, ordinary Russians are beginning to question why they need to be taking any of Ukraine's territory in the first place.

At some point I'm going to write a series of articles dissecting the denial ecosystem around Syrian chemical weapons and how manufactured, unfalsifiable doubt obstructs accountability, hopefully starting in August. Really nerd out on it.

There are fuel troubles in Russia's Kaliningrad too. The usual story - Russians are freaking out, utterly clueless about what's happening.

In the SCOTUS birthright case that should have been decided 9-0, four Supreme Court justices are saying the 14th Amendment doesn't say what it actually, clearly says. That's how bad SCOTUS is now.

Ukraine signed a landmark agreement with Sweden for 16 Gripen E multirole fighters. In parallel, Sweden will transfer 16 Gripen C/D aircraft as military aid from early 2027, with Gripen E deliveries beginning in 2029. #Ukraine

@kimatiwagner.bsky.social Have you ever heard of this ? books.google.nl/books?id=KPk...

Ukraine doesn’t need anymore of the elderly and expensive to operate Mig-29, when its training and pilot allocation is going to increasing numbers of Mirage and the incoming Gripen. Anyone with an observation they’d like to make?
