  • What's the exclusion zone of rare earth mines ? Of the terrible chemicals required to extract those products ? Same question with the batteries. What's the impact of the shade on agriculture ? How about all the steel, concrete and composites on the environment, how do they degrade ? Is it in micro plastics ?

    I didn't say nuclear energy was good, just that solar panels are worse. The perfect energy source doesn't exist but currently all the data I've come across points to the direction that nuclear is significantly better than all other renewables and don't require significant battery storage.

    Also if anti-science ecologists hadn't blocked so many fast neutron reactors, we'd be further along to a tech that can burn existing thorium stockpiles for 8000 years without further mining and while producing significantly less dangerous waste than current reactors. I guess we'll just buy the design from China and Russia who didn't stop the research and have currently operating reactors right now.

  • That's a major security breach.

    Imagine a piece of malware using that same API to spy on other programs...

    There'd need to be a way for a user to tell the kernel which app can do that, and that's a lot of trust to put into a fleeting app that'll stop working when too few micro transactions are being done and too much trust to put into a user which may may be giving this permission to random programs, which may sometimes be evil.

  • Usually in the wrong direction.

    In my country, which is part of the Europe, the only decent parties, in my view, do <1% of the vote...

    A swiss-like system would be a good start, with a more direct, horizontal democracy, but basically nobody advocates for it.

  • You're right, although I'd be considering narrower cards and maybe blowers. This is a server build, not a main rig. So I'd get a GPU that's as close as possible to a glorified encoder ad possible and pocket the power savings. I don't have ac where I live...

  • If OP need compactness, maybe micro atx or mini itx could help.

    Although I've been thinking about doing like that I haven't found a good cheap compact case for mass HDD storage, pcie expansion for network upgrades and GPU installs...

  • Well, in my country, some leftist parties do have an issue with Putin. Sometimes they ignore his behaviour, others they defend his policies. Never they denounce him, and the few times they do, it's never in terms as strong or as early as the others. But it shouldn't be so hard ! The guy is evil and is funding tons of parties in Europe in favour or far right populism...

    So I think there is actually room for a non-Putin-aligned, science-based, left wing party in many countries, starting with my own.

  • I completely get you, and I'll retort by saying that this time, it's a noise insulation issue! I've visited several friends in newer appartements in Europe and those tend to have really good noise insulation, and I'm talking can't-hear-the-neighbor's-party good. Surely there are exceptions but this can be engineered around.
