Alpha private school leaders believe

they will make lots of money

Nice, sounds even better!

Tesla battery apparently have a density of 244-296 Wh/Kg, so does that mean 1000 metic tonnes of of batteries at 289.6 Wh would be enough to provide annual storage here? That doesn’t seem infeasible or unreasonable for something potentially so beneficial.

If only I had some money to transfer somewhere :(

Yeah I got banned from greenandpleasent the same time Russia invaded Ukraine because it was taken over by a bunch of boot lickers and likely actual paid russian shills, probably some of the same crowd hosting hexbear et al. And got a site wide ban soon after…

UK government want to see all your data. Is this just a shot across the bows, because it’s comes off incredibly stupid given the context of what a cloud environment provides, i.e. massive amounts of easily accessed very expensive hardware, and there are boutique options out there…

Or maybe they’d like to bring shared computing infrastructure into the hands of the people, nationalised cloud, mmm sounds good!

I found khan academy to be really good. My daughter handled the JavaScript module pretty well at the age of 9. If your son is already familiar with the concept of programming and can read well enough, I’d be pretty sure he’d enjoy this

.net core now has all the framework stuff and all runs great on Linux. C# is a really nice language.

I wonder how many children will be saved. Surely they’ve calculated this, given the high cost of freedom of information/speech being severely restricted.

And the same day stirred up a shit storm about watering down climate commitments, surely coincidence…

Unfortunately they are likely looking to both destroy free communication and the climate, and not just using it as a ruse… They’re psychotic.

This is quite an in depth solution to sortof what you’re talking about

It really only covers making sure people are fed, housed and watered. Personally I think cars are a pain in the arse, I’d rather run or cycle everywhere, but then that’s not everybody. If you really liked them, and you were fed, housed and watered, you’d definitely have time to look at building or contributing to building one, assuming people don’t tell you to fuck off because it’s a noisy, smelly death trap…

Unfortunately, the likelihood would be that a lot of people couldn’t handle being in the same kind of housing as everyone else, because they believe they’re special. But logically this makes much more sense that what we’re currently doing. Capitalism is extremely wasteful.

And before you say, well you’d never get people to agree to this. I think the tankies/fascists have solutions to that problem, you’re just encouraging them…
