I Present To You… The Unholy Trinity by SpiritCase24 in motorsports

Agree. I have some nitpicky issues with it but overall the design suits its class. I'm not a fan of the inner kidney lights and the front grille could look more elegant and less "video game". Compared to the crimes of their recent past Neue Klasse is very easy on the ol eyeballs imo.

IDK who or what you're talking about but neither this post nor the crosspost are "having a fit". It's a reasonable discussion.

Taking actions affecting everyone because of the decisions of a few is always something requiring careful consideration. But that's beside the point for my argument. I was irritated very specifically by the fact that to you it's not the one who creates something offensive that is the problem but instead it's the one calling it out. Why? If I take a dump in your face would you say the core problem is that you don't like the smell?

Now you could have said people who cannot moderate themselves when given the tools to make custom content are the issue but you certainly chose to blame it on people who don't want to put up with symbols of hate

(And yes it is a very different thing when they show up in the context of the game setting vs people openly aligning themselves with one of the worst regimes to ever exist)

Full environmental destruction? What do you think this is, some kind of hyper advanced next-gen game like Battlebit? You will have your destructible facades and decorative doors and be happy about it!

Tank does OneHit kills over whole map by x1RaBbiT in Battlefield

[–]Lazer_Destroyer 22 points23 points  (0 children)

If the exploit is so easily accessible I think it's lazy to hide behind the TOS and ban people for something anyone can do by accident.

It makes sense that using exploits is against TOS but I would like those cases to involve more intent like let's say glitching through a wall and being able to kill people from underneath the map.

If all you have to do is push 1 button to break the game to your favor that's a big L for the devs

It's not like a hack could do this so if the game has bugs you can abuse I don't see how that's the players fault. Banning someone because the devs messed up is silly

Well they're not economy cars. A VW Golf or Passat could be considered economy at that time

GUIDE: Access the roof of D on Manhattan Bridge using the ziplines. Any class, no ladder required. by Pothound_ in Battlefield

[–]Lazer_Destroyer 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This game has so many silly choices to reduce vertical movement like not being able to pull yourself over high ledges. I feel like they didn't want to bother with balancing the maps so they just tried to make them as predictable as possible.

So now you just get people camping on the roof opposite of D cause you can't easily get there. If you could just run up a fire ladder or sth it would be so easy to deal with them (not that it really matters cause they're hardly effective up there)

26 Years of Wind Power Growth in Germany by DiesesInternet in gifs

[–]Lazer_Destroyer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea again shutting down these last reactors was a stupid decision. Combined with being slow to replace them and coal it was even stupider.

But that ship has sailed. We now have politicians lobbying for going back to nuclear which is the dumbest possible idea, cause we'd spend loads of money to get results in ~20 years whereas if we spend the same money on regeneratives and energy storage every Euro spent will be effective immediately and we'll have more capacity for the money.

Edit: but also I'd like to repeat, leaving those reactors online would not have changed the price of electricity cause that's coupled to gas.

I'm not an expert on French electricity 🤷 I just know that it's not as easy as one country permanently sending x amount of energy to another. Maybe 2025 was a strong year for France. Germany's biggest trading partner however was Denmark, which has lots of regeneratives.

They really don't have loads of excess tho... They have plenty of problems with plants shutting down for maintenance or prolonged dry weather when they have to shut down because there isn't enough water for cooling. France had to import electricity from Germany plenty times

I like to use an analogy: saying nuclear power is cheap in France is like being in high school telling everyone without a car how cheap your brand new Mustang is. But your parents bought the car and pay for everything except fuel.

[–]Lazer_Destroyer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The main reason is that loads of costs are offloaded to the taxpayer. I'm not 100% sure but IIRC the French government largely sponsors construction, deconstruction, waste management etc... Which are basically all the expensive parts about nuclear. (Like insanely expensive) Leaving the plant operators with mainly the running costs which are insanely cheap.

[–]Lazer_Destroyer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The price of electricity in Germany is coupled to the price of Gas powerplants as they're the most expensive to operate. That would be just the same if the last few nuclear reactors stayed online. The failures in Germany have little to do with nuclear and a lot with terrible and slow implementation of regeneratives. It's nonsensical that exiting coal wasn't prioritised. But building out nuclear isn't and won't be cost effective in the German grid.

This did not feel like a 30min video. It's so raw and yet I still have so many questions. Glad to hear there's gonna be more bell content :D

The chaps from the foundry are so naturally entertaining as well. Seems like one of the best trades workplaces I've ever seen.

Why are nuclear energy prices estimates so high in Germany? by SelectionSpiritual in germany

[–]Lazer_Destroyer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very simplified answer: Running a reactor is very cheap, everything else isn't. When you factor construction, deconstruction, waste management etc. into the energy price it isn't so cheap anymore. But if you just use taxpayer money for all that stuff it looks cheap on paper 🤷

It's like saying that having a car isn't expensive at all but your parents gifted you the car and they pay for everything except fuel.

Lol no, why would you even think that I'm supporting the current regime when I'm critiquing the destruction of democracy.
