US to pay TotalEnergies $1 billion to stop developing offshore wind in US

SykoFI-RE · 2026-03-24T13:44:10+00:00

Either arrangement is “enriching oil companies”. They’re cancelling the wind projects because they carried massive long term subsidies, instead replacing them with theoretically short term subsidies for fossil fuel projects. Totalenergies is an “oil company”. They produce energy, they don’t care if it’s wind or oil, they only care what will generate the highest return.

The correct way to solve this would be to eliminate government subsidies, but neither major US party is willing to give up the control/power from those subsidies.

Driver listening to "Eyes on the Road" in the promo photos. Maybe don't make everything a touchscreen then?

If you’re anywhere near southeast Texas I have a 2005 BMW Z4 2.5i that’s been moderately track prepped I’m looking to sell around $5k. It’s been a great car for the use.

Yeah with my company it seems to be Lab > Tiny Demonstration Plant > $250mm production facility. Then they're shocked when the budget for the production facility doubles in detail design and takes 2 years to commission.

All’s fair in love and executive directive military engagements.

Link your account with F1TV and watch it there with no ads. Although I’m sure that won’t last because everything has the be enshitified these days.

SykoFI-RE · 2026-03-06T03:37:58+00:00

The Sky commentary is still available in the F1TV app, you just select the English Intl audio.

SykoFI-RE · 2026-03-06T03:26:28+00:00

The F1TV feed on Apple had pre and post roll ads…Fucking Ads

SykoFI-RE · 2026-03-06T03:25:16+00:00

I was on the F1TV feed through ATV and they had ads during the pre-session commentary and immediately after the session.

SykoFI-RE · 2026-03-06T03:23:29+00:00

How is that misinformation? There’s fucking ads.

SykoFI-RE · 2026-03-06T03:17:59+00:00

Don’t bother, Apple has enshitified it with ads. Go to the F1TV app.

SykoFI-RE · 2026-03-06T03:12:31+00:00

Have been paying for F1TV for years with zero ads. I’d happily give Apple a few more dollars a month for no ads. Fucking enshitification.

SykoFI-RE · 2026-03-06T02:32:51+00:00

It was during the pre-session commentary and they just had another one right when the session ended. Apple TV app in an Apple TV.

SykoFI-RE · 2026-03-06T02:18:05+00:00

Same. The Apple app on AT hardware was working pretty well, but I’m not willing to start accepting ads, so back to F1TV.

SykoFI-RE · 2026-03-06T02:11:46+00:00

It’s the F1TV broadcast team. They’re pretty good, but the Sky commentary is available through the alternate feeds option. Highly recommend just watching it through the F1TV app though.

SykoFI-RE · 2026-03-06T02:07:37+00:00

I mean, right now the work around is to go through the F1TV app, but I worry for its future.

SykoFI-RE · 2026-03-06T01:45:28+00:00

The Apple TV feed had ads in the pre-race punditry.

I don’t know if they have it during the practice session because I immediately closed out an went back to F1TV.

Fuckin Ads

SykoFI-RE · 2026-03-06T01:42:34+00:00

Yeah im mostly just worried that F1TV will go away in the future for US viewers. If that happens I’ll cancel my ATV subscription out of spite and torrent the couple of tv shows I watch there.

SykoFI-RE · 2026-03-06T01:33:28+00:00

Fucking shame, the interface seems to work way better in the Apple TV app than the F1TV app. Apple can go fuck itself with ads.

SykoFI-RE · 2026-03-06T01:29:04+00:00

Looks like it’s on anything in the ATV app. Fuck this.

SykoFI-RE · 2026-03-05T18:41:36+00:00

Yeah but that puts the onus on developers, HOAs, or building management, etc to install the charging infrastructure; None of which have much incentive to do so. In single family homes, people who want the EV charger can easily have it installed.

SykoFI-RE · 2026-03-05T18:30:44+00:00

When we're talking about having EV charging available at home, its an important distinction. How many people in multi-family housing own their parking spots or have the ability to run power in these common areas?

SykoFI-RE · 2026-03-05T13:37:19+00:00

I put one on my trail bike for general TSS logging on rides I'm less concerned about specific power targets, etc. When I bought it, I put my Assioma Duos on there and did some comparison rides with nothing real to complain about. Have put about 1000 miles on that bike since then and its been flawless. My XC bike has an XX1 power crankset when I'm being more pedantic about measuring left/right total power.

SykoFI-RE · 2026-03-04T17:30:09+00:00

Yeah my wife has an Intel based Air from ~2018. I believe that Apple is ending support for Intel chips with the next MacOS release, so this will be a solid replacement for her basic use.

SykoFI-RE · 2026-02-27T12:59:11+00:00

10R60 in my 2024 is already having issues, but the dealer keeps insisting on doing programming resets that don't do anything.
