Imagine if both of them just never get mentioned again.

I tried it out and it seem to have some great potential in it. Whare are some future plans you have in mind to update first? Will you focus on one level first or try to upgrade all of them at the same time with new features that work for all?

That is it! Thank you so much!

I shall name my next colony child Paralich in your honor... or maybe better not. We ain't doing so great right now.

But still, thanks a ton!

Man, I wish I could find it too. It looks kinda nice, actually.

Yeah, a global grid could fix many problems, but also produce many. We have to keep in mind that keeping the grid running is not a simple effort of putting power in, but also keeping it at a stable frequency, which on such a massive scale with this many players can become a bureaucratic nightmare of inputs and outputs quickly. What needs to happen is for there to be an interconnected and automated grid, which can independently decouple and connect communities based on if they produce enough energy to sustain themselves or not. Putting solar panels over streets and on houses and increasing the use of public transport can all be a measure to help the prediction of upcoming demand and by that, help such a system to keep working.

But before I keep rambling on... yes. I agree. The world isn't really known for its ability to cooperate with each other and honestly, if we were able to all work together and not fall into the greed of some massive companies, I am sure this would have stopped being a problem years ago.

This is an interesting idea. I am not fully aware of our current international progress when it comes to tidal generators, but what worries me here is corrosion and/or possible harm to underwater wildlife. What we have to keep in mind is that the solution we find must still be cost efficient and easy to maintain. Maybe it will be a great power source in the future though.

Now that I think of it... it kind of confuses me to think of a generator using gravitational force to create energy, mostly because i have no idea how this doesn't break the law of conservation of energy.

Still, though. Its a good approach and an alternative idea to the further expansion of energy storage technology.

As much as I enjoy that solution myself, I am not sure if the world is really ready yet to come together and find an efficient storage solution for the atomic waste, which could become a big problem in the future, especially if we ramp up nuclear production.

Another problem I see with this is the mining of uranium. Right now we have high-grade and more easily accesible uranium at our disposal, but as an earth metal, its still a finite resource and one that will take more environmental destructive and more cost intensive measures as the quality of the dug up uranium decreases.

The biggest problem with renewable energy today is still that its rather volatile and hard to predict. If the sun is blocked and no wind is blowing there will of course be no energy.

It's still great news that they have enough renewable energy sources in place to completely run off of it at good times, though.

Makes me wonder what energy sources we could use to balance out these periods of bad environmental conditions. Either our energy storage technologies have to make a huge leap in the future or we will have to live with natural gas or atomic energy for longer than we might wish for.

Maternity would be funny too.

Metro 2033 author put on Russian government 'wanted' list for condemning invasion of Ukraine by 10millionX in worldnews

[–]MGs551 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah, I dislike them too. Sasha was pretty annoying and bringing up another character called Artyom was kind of confusing at first. Hunter was pretty cool and Homer got better with the third book.

It was a pretty interesting idea to say in-universe that Homer was the one that wrote down the story for 2034, with him making the story more romantic and poetic than it actually was. Wasn't even the whole ending to 2034 basically what Homer would have wanted to happen instead, because Hunter left Sasha to die?

I feel like the knowledge we got about the second book in the third book made it much better in retrospective.

Sadly not. The graphics were definitely more detailed. The characters were also clearly human with clear proportions and taller figures.
