NOT.

MASSIVE 600 ton Liebherr mining excavator converted from diesel to electric Lloyds Metals and Energy have successfully converted a massive, 650-ton class Liebherr R 996 excavators from diesel power to electric.

The future is electric

Starting my 2 day drive from Calgary, Alberta to Los Angeles, CA today. My goal today is Provo, UT.

Arrived in Milk River, AB at the Tesla superchargers and starting my charge to 75% to continue on to Great Falls, MT.

It's not the battery that is too small, it's always the bladder.

Wow, well done. Love it.

A 3D-printed map that combines Émile Cheysson's fonts, patterns and coastal hatching with muted colours to display a modern dataset: the number of times the French kiss each other on the cheek when greeting in different parts of the country. The colour or pattern on the surface of each department shows the number of kisses employed by a plurality of its residents—from one to four—and the height reflects the percentage of that plurality. This one is made in blushing pink. Data from http://combiendebises.free.fr/

I 3D-printed a Cheysson-style map of France showing the modal number of salutatory cheek-kisses in each department. It took ages.

I thought robots were supposed to assist you with tasks that make sense.
And also:
there are those round things, I think called wheels.
Slightly more efficient to get you 21km far for no reason whatsoever.

Sorry, you’re telling me that something that doesn’t feel pain, doesn’t have lactic acid build up, doesn’t need adequate hydration or electrolytes, doesn’t need to pee, and doesn’t get tired is only 6 minutes faster than humans?

you’ve fucked up a perfectly good Roomba.

Range is a hardware problem.
Range anxiety is a software problem.
They solved both.

Let this sink in. Staggering and beyond sad. 👇

When you think things couldn’t get worse in America, there’s another mass shooting involving babies.

Just beautiful.

I love this so much.

Barack Obama sat down with Mayor Zohran Mamdani in a Bronx child care center, reading “Alone and Together,” a book about connection, community, and belonging to preschoolers.

Spannend wie unterschiedlich es funktioniert.
Bei uns führen zu viele Optionen / Entscheidungen zu noch grösseren Meltdowns.
Ablenkung hilft manchmal, eher selten.

Tipps zur Einnahme von Nasenspray? Nach 1 h + 2 Meltdowns noch kein Nasenspray im Kind. Muss aber wegen Heuschnupfen. Letztes Jahr ging es noch besser. Sowas wird aber irgendwie von Jahr zu Jahr schlimmer. Ich glaube, ich geh laufen… 🫩 @einander-verstehen.bsky.social

Wir haben nach erfolglosen Nasensprayversuchen auf Lutschtabletten umgestellt (ich glaube mit Apfelgeschmack).

Gerade hamm wir zuhause unseren Heimspeicher erweitert.
Gestern die Katastrophe‼️
- Speicher voll
- Auto lädt
- Trotzdem noch Einspeisung von 1,5 kW.
Kann bitte jemand kommen und uns Umsonst-Solar-Strom abnehmen? 😅

Spain is crushing it ⚡🇪🇸

Solar is delivering the equivalent of 27 nuclear plants during the day. Pumped hydro stores ~3 nuclear plants worth. Batteries already stepping in.

This isn’t a generation problem anymore. It’s storage scale.

Energy scarcity → energy timing. #BESS #Solar

„Die Erneuerbaren haben uns gerettet“: Grüne rechnen mit Merz-Regierung ab – und die gibt Erfolg von Solar zu Sprit- und Gaspreise sind hoch. Anders sieht es beim Strom aus, der wird kaum teurer. Reiches CDU-Wirtschaftsministerium gibt nun auch zu, wieso.

"Der Börsenpreis für Strom stieg demgegenüber nur leicht um knapp drei Prozent auf 99,29 Euro pro Megawattstunde“, so Connemann im Schreiben, das dieser Redaktion vorliegt. Gas wird also massiv teurer, Strom kaum."

Danke Robert Habeck. 🫶

Fuck you Fossil-CDU!

Es gibt Entwickler, die können auch ganz ohne KI kompletten Schrott programmieren.

Don't ask me why I know.

All countries should do that.

Studie: Langzeit-Batteriespeicher können günstiger als Gaskraftwerke zur Versorgungssicherheit beitragen LCP Delta hat in einer Studie analysiert, welchen Beitrag Langzeit-Batteriespeicher innerhalb der Kapazitätsausschreibungen zur Versorgungssicherheit leisten können. Dabei geht es auch um den wirtschaftlichen Vergleich mit Gaskraftwerken und letztendlich die entstehenden Kosten für die Allgemeinheit. Es geht den Autoren jedoch explizit nicht darum, komplett auf neue Gaskraftwerke zu verzichten.

Langzeit-Batteriespeicher können Versorgungssicherheit günstiger als Gaskraftwerke gewährleisten.
