16 would be 👍 (going by the mapping in this post, or the pinky if you do thumb = 1).

4 is 4 either way.

Don’t forget 4.

Indeed.

I guess you could also use an oversized heat pump in theory. With a setup like this, recirculation and/or wastewater heat recuperation would also need to be looked into. Either would significantly reduce the cost of running this.

But purely resistive heating without any form of recuperation would need impractical amounts of power.

Water typically comes in at around 15 degree Celsius, so it needs to be heated by around 25 degrees to feel warm.

A regular high flow shower head flows up to 20 liters per minute (that’s 5.3 gpm in American). That’s 500 kcal/min of energy that needs to be added, which is 35 kW, or a total of almost 150A at 240V.

Are there schools that don’t teach calculator usage? Even 10-15 years ago German schools (at least in the states I looked at) had the option to teach math with either basic calculators, scientific calculators, or computer algebra systems in grades 9-13 (I think) with most schools picking scientific calculators even back then. I would expect that to have moved into earlier grades and more advanced devices nowadays.

If they try to use a blender (the kitchen appliance), I’m sure it will also become interesting.

It works on Windows, no idea how other distros behave but judging by all the issues people were reporting, even if this specific issue doesn’t happen on other distros, you’ll get bitten by something else.

It’s less than 3 years old. If it was any newer the argument would be “you can’t expect such new hardware to be supported”.

My embedded AMD GPU has been unusable under Ubuntu. Constant crashes/freezes. When trying to find a workaround (unsuccessfully), I found lots of other people with slight variations of the same problem - same symptoms, but different root causes… seems like at any time there are several system-breaking bugs and every time one is removed another is introduced. You just have to hope your kernel happens to be one that happens to work with your specific config.

My next platform will be Intel-based.

Absolutely not. They have way more money than they can sensibly spend, keep begging for more as if they could barely keep the lights on (they could probably easily keep the core mission going with about 10% of the money they’re getting), and then expand their spending to match the donations they collected.

They then created an endowment (i.e. a pile of wealth that generates enough interest to sustain them indefinitely), using both additional donations and some of the money given to Wikimedia (which reduces the apparent amount of money they spend and is not listed as money Wikipedia/Wikimedia has, as it is accounted for separately). The $100M endowment was planned to take 10 years to build, got completed in 2021, five years before schedule. Wikimedia also has a separate cash hoard of almost a quarter billion dollars.

It’s actually all in their article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation#Finances

And this is why kids should grow up with increasingly restrictive parental control software. It’s educational.

I’m sure there are worse, and it’s not one company, but the companies that provide malware to dictatorships are pretty bad, and western countries are sheltering them/not doing much about them.

Examples:

• NSO Group (Pegasus)
• HackingTeam
• Gamma/Lench/Vilicius (FinFisher)

Also meine Berechnung geht von den extra Kalorien aus, nicht dem Grundumsatz.

Wieso? Vom CO2(eq)-Ausstoß pro km dürfte das hinkommen. Menschen sind nicht sonderlich effiziente Motoren, Rindfleisch haut wegen dem Methanausstoß (für Klimaerwärmung wird das in CO2-Äquivalent umgerechnet) richtig rein, und ein volles Auto ist weit weniger schlimm als man denkt.

6 Liter Benzin (also 100 km Auto, nur Benzinverbrauch) erzeugen ca. 14 kg CO2 (mehr als das Benzin wiegt, weil zum C aus dem Benzin das O2 aus der Luft kommt). Teile das auf 5 Personen auf, und du bist bei knapp 3 kg pro Person. Bei 2500 kcal auf 100 km bist du selbst bei 1g CO2eq per kcal (Veganer) sehr nah dran. Und ob da das ausgeatmete CO2 schon drin ist weiß ich nicht. Das ist auch nicht komplett vernachlässigbar.

Flugzeug vs. Auto mit nur einer Person drin übrigens genauso: https://www.quarks.de/umwelt/klimawandel/co2-rechner-fuer-auto-flugzeug-und-co/

Der Unterschied ist, dass du mit dem Fahrrad keine 90 Kilometer pro Tag hin- und zurück pendelst, oder mal eben 500 km in den Kurzurlaub fährst. Und mit dem Auto nicht Mal eben eine Weltreise machst.

Was auch noch dazukommt ist die Produktion des Fahrzeugs. Die ist bei Autos auch signifikant.

I’m using Jerboa, but it keeps crashing and on every statup complains that my instance is not compatible with the updated version. This drives me back to reddit and when it shuts off apps, I’ll probably go back to real life.

Yes, but it did also have hardwired emergency controls that they could use if the controller failed.

Compare that to Crew Dragon, which flies Astronauts to the ISS with a touchscreen (also with a backup)

They had a backup system, so I think this is fine. Not like you’ll have a lot of interference under the ocean…

Using a controller is reasonable. Not having redundancy would be insane. This article suggests they hand plenty of redundancy for surfacing.
