You have made infinite people unhappy by forcing them to change rooms. But Sisyphus is happy so who cares about the rest of them

They can’t deny that he’s older than dirt, might as well lean into the cuter parts about that fact
Overproduction doesn’t cover when large swaths of land have low wind speeds at night
They solve different problems. Nuclear is cheaper than the batteries needed to make solar/wind reliable.
Mayo??? Potato salad is made with mustard not mayo what the fuck
Inflation has affected our country very differently in different locales. Change in cost of living is the real metric for what inflation is trying to quantify
but you have to pay the full amount anyway and go through insurance because you have a deductible that needs to be met because your annual physical isn’t supposed to happen until November when you get time off around Thanksgiving but you don’t want to have to pay the full non-insured price of this and not count it to your deductible when you KNOW that you’ll have to pay the full cost of that primary care visit and your 45-year-old colonoscopy coming up and everything is terrible.
The question never states that the relationship t(p) would be a linear function of p
If you answered “yes” to “Are you good at spotting Loss memes” before realizing this meme was Loss, you are not good at spotting Loss memes
I mean I would have picked the burger
Yes I noticed that. I think it would fit into the original tune quite well since the meter for that section changes between verses. Syllable count is about right. But it doesn’t rock as hard because the meter doesn’t flow as well.
The meter is wrong compared to the original
My personal favorite were the twisting doorbells where you rotate a ratcheting knob that strikes the bell repeatedly as it turns
Did he tune the gain on each to guarantee the order they would appear? That’s dedication
Japan, Greenland, Cuba, New Zealand too apparently
Rather than later?
Yes but the grid doesn’t carry power efficiently over extremely long distances. You’re putting undue load on the grid if you expect wind blowing 500 miles away to cover all the power needs of the area it’s supposed to supply as well as every neighboring area where there’s not enough power.
This isn’t just an efficiency issue you can solve by throwing more windmills at the issue. If there’s too much power flowing through the lines we have currently, things break. Usually with fires and exploding transformers. Our power grid is designed for distributed production, but with on-demand generation as a backup for when intermittent generation is underperforming. Batteries are one option to achieve this, but they’re expensive to build in the scale we need them. Hydrogen fuel production is an interesting candidate to fill this niche and for all-renewable power, but the efficiency is quite low so you’re basically tripling the cost per unit energy produced.
But one way or another, you need additional infrastructure to power the grid with zero fossil fuels. Nuclear, batteries, hydrogen fuel, or a total revamp of transmission infrastructure all require expensive construction projects. Nuclear is the only one that’s been done at scale, that’s why I want to see it given a fair chance again. But I also think plenty of other options are promising BECAUSE they are novel, and I’d love to see a future where a combination is used to make a carbon-free, brownout-free power grid
