Oh so the reason rock pigeon nests are so bad is that we took all the rocks from them so now they can’t build.

If they can claim this, then the music should already be in youtubes system and recognized on the video, in which case it is attributed under the description.

Germany doesn’t have that locker design to my knowledge. Nor square doorhandles (doesn’t that hurt?).
Scandinavia really likes those twist lockers under the handle. Usually they simply disengage the handle, but sometimes they also operate a deadbolt.

Not every shower is a hair wash. Especially if you have long hair and shower daily it might be say a 1:4 ratio.
I advocate for headphones in those 75% of showers. Can be very nice.I don’t even have good speakers, so this ensures best sound quality. It also skips the setup steps, if you then proceed to commute to work say. Just a continuous music experience, and you’d have had to put them on later anyway.
Very fitting for the olde 5min shower out the door maneuver. - Comment on Shirley, you can't be serious 3 weeks ago:
So every ant, clone or not, is probably set up to only function in a colony.
And I assume the genetics determine the language, so that even related ant nests don’t merge but stay distinct?
- Comment on Shirley, you can't be serious 3 weeks ago:
Which you can argue for, but doesn’t stem from them being all almost twins.
I can say Humans are 99.6% genetically identical, and I can say nations are kinda like independent organisms (more sketchy a statement than for ants), but I definitely can’t say Humans are 99.6% genetically identical, and thus nations are kinda like independent organisms.
“Ants are almost twins” is not the cause of “Ants are not really autonomous individuals”
- Comment on Shirley, you can't be serious 3 weeks ago:
Then, other than their genetic code, what else is copied between individuals? Is their brain fully encoded in their chromosomes? Does the queen ant go and copy the same brain into all worker ants? Do the worker ants, when pupating, connect to the colonies wifi network and download the current neuronal image for network booting?
Do they share their fingerprints (for example hair placement) too? - Comment on Shirley, you can't be serious 3 weeks ago:
closer to clones than individual consciousnesses
You know that genetic clones are still individuals with independent brains, right?
Like twins don’t have to take on the same profession or have the same personality. They’re about as mentally different as any other random person. - Comment on We produce more resources than we could ever consume in the least sustainable ways possible. 4 weeks ago:

ooohhhhh, it’s cheese.
Literally unrecognizable to me, never seen anything like it. Probably couldn’t even be sold as “cheese” in the EU.
I was trying to make sense of why people recommend eating fiber with a bar of white chocolate, and what “normal way” you’d even eat it.

Recently I almost forgot my encryption keys. With windows I can now safely rest assured that I can always decrypt my drive with a simple file from github.
This shows the value of a great community, because while microsoft wrote the back-door, the tool to use it was developed by an independent programmer. - Comment on Cats 5 weeks ago:

I’ll try to find some more sources later, for now I only have appeal to authority, sorry. I took a lecture on modern grid design for renewables and had a lot of coverage specifically on the state of renewable profuction and storage and the pricing.
At a cursory look the numbers online are hard to parse because articles usually are not clear on the specifics they base their costsbon, like what sort of stability the renewables can achieve at a stated cost. From what I have seen a lotnof numbers do have to be about still varying supply over the day and accross seasons.
There is another argument (that used to be used before this recent price crossover), which maybe makes it easier to accept without up to date numbers: Because of the long build-time, you can buy the batteries 10 years from now, comparing to a nuclear plant that starts construction today. Surely you can see that the battery improvements over the next decades, specifically for grid batteries, will be huge. Currently batteries are still often very similar to car batteries, there are entirely new chemistries that will be in production 10 years down the line.
It’s not like I am saying we should scrap ongoing constructions.
- Comment on Spicy Air ☢️ 1 month ago:
That is priced in yeah. Until recently that would have made it more expensive, but we now have the tipping point where overbuilt solar and batteries beat nuclear in price so finally there are no more caveats. Solar is cheaper, even at high latitudes like in northern europe, even for baseload application with big battery buffers right next to the solar farm.
I see a ton of them being spammed out like that now, solar fields with batteries in a small house in the middle, or in boxes along one side of the field.Solar itself is so cheap, that overbuilding or latitude hardly factor in, it’s mostly about the batteries.
The solar costs are also mainly the land and the construction of the frames. - Comment on Spicy Air ☢️ 1 month ago:
Gigá Whatts, inventor of the plant. To this day we honour his invention by using GW to refer to a plant the size of his first plant. It’s roughly equivalent to an oak with stem circumference of 20m.
- Comment on Spicy Air ☢️ 1 month ago:
There is a set amount of budget for replacing power infrastructure, and a set amount of capacity to be filled.
Any time a nuclear plant is starting to be built now, they could have instead already finished a renewable plant.
There is no longer any exclusive niche nuclear plants can fill, renewables and batteries beat it on all metrics now, even where stable baseload is needed.
If you need a GW of plants, you won’t build both a nuclear and a renewable GW plant, you pick one. If that GW replaces a coal plant, then nuclear will see the coal being burned for 10 more years while under construction.
The grid produces as needed, prices don’t vary enough anyone will use less power because low-emission sources are not yet available. Any nuclear power capacity under construction that could have been renewables will cause their equivalent capacity in fossile sources to be used an additional 10 years compared to if renewables had been built. - Comment on Spicy Air ☢️ 1 month ago:
Renewables are cheaper and also faster to build. Advocating for nuclear now is a delay tactic benefitting fossile fuels.
Renewables don’t create a permanent waste problem.(Also CO₂ is not as long-term as nuclear waste. It’s not easy or doable near-term, but you can let nature pull it out of the air and store the results. This can be done with none of the risks of failed nuclear storage.)
