I watch big state and national grid loads (for fun) and I see two distinct peaks: 7-8AM when everyone goes to work, and then around 5-7 PM when people commute home and heat up dinner.

Otherwise it’s a linear diagonal curve coinciding with temperatures.

I personally try to keep my own energy usage a completely flat line so I can benefit from baseline load generator plants like nuclear (located not that far away).

Gen Alpha was right, it’s all a vibe check

Hommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

It’s really uplifting when you put it that way, yes

Holy shit.

TIL: I’m just like Hertz

Nothing, I guess

It’s theory of mind and consciousness level stuff. I don’t really know; I read about it ages ago and that was the conclusion, it was “pod behavior” and not vengeance or something higher-level.

Basically, the bar for a behavior/explanation has to be very high in science.

Orcas began attacking [all] yachts as if they were sentient because their friends got struck by propellers.

Scientists said that orcas are not conscious enough to connect the two things, and that it’s just an example of “pod play”.

Obviously, anyone with half a brain can tell you animals can feel things and hold a grudge, but it’s not scientifically rigorous

Oldboy.

One and done.

Shit. He’s right. That isn’t honorable prey.

Actually, we do.

We saw a man do a Nazi salute on live television and roughly half the people who saw it said that isn’t what it was.

Having official sources confirm something fights misinformation and grabs the reigns away from disinformation generators.

This is stable diffussion? Holy shit.

“Software” 2007.

LGR, is that you?

Is slavery woke fellas?

As someone with 5,000 hours logged into virtual reality as of 2025, your comment leaves me a little confused. 😵‍💫

You mean “VR Ready” as like, a marketing terminology, right?

Because high-quality, full-body motion tracking virtual reality is available to everyone today for around $3,000-$5,000. It used to cost $140,000 in 1996.

I wait and let everyone figure out what the least broken Linux distro is.

Debian is stable. Stable is good, for an operating system; because I actually want to use my computer.

Not play with the operating system for 4-6 hours per day.

I mean can you imagine sweating into the same clothes you then need to wear to the Spartan assembly?
