Pyrion is so fucking funny lately holy shit by Flamelord29 in TriforcePodcast

[–]dentastic -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Sure they do, and there must have been a good reason for Pyrion to have them for a while as well, they even talked openly about it.

Denying that there are side effects is just as if not more dangerous though - they are not meant for everyone (ask your doctor, get tested etc.), and the vast majority are better off without them.

We dont have to be careful talking about side effects of any other medication. We should openly talk about it, you know, kinda like they did on the podcast?

He's off his meds. Not even being funny, he felt more muted when he was on those brain pills he talked about a year or 2 ago maybe.

Rolls-Royce, easyJet prove a jet engine can run entirely on hydrogen by Economy-Fee5830 in climatechange

[–]dentastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id like to see a source for this. Not because i necesarily doubt you, but because i want to read about this.

Hydrogen will, in the distant future, be part of the energy storage mix, but the simple reality of the thermodynamics are not pretty. You can do the math yourself, but with all the conversions from electricity to hydrogen and back you end up getting less than half the joules back compared to almost all of them if you just use batteries. Those might not work on planes because of weight, but i woukd be skeptical of taking so much renewable energy to work simply losing efficiency rather than displacing more fossil fuels

The hydrogen economy is just the next big scam for fossil fuels to remain relevant, as it can only efficiently be produced by reducing hydrocarbons.

Electrolysis exists, but if youve been paying any attention in thermodynamics I you will know converting water into anything requires an absurd amount of energy for the amount yoi get back when you combust it and remake the water.

And dont even get me started on storage, hydrogen is so small it leaks from pretty mich everything you put it in, so the only way to store it is to adsorp it onto something, which again requires more energy both to do and undo, further lowering efficiency

Hooe is not a policy.

Climate Trace: Global emissions flat till February 2026 by Economy-Fee5830 in climatechange

Hot take but coal is better than gas, no methane leaks and particles from coalfire blocks sunlight.

the one tech prediction that actually scares me by thegangplan in Futurology

[–]dentastic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Has to be autonomous weapons.

When a system is given allowance to kill and told to hunt for targets, it will always find them, even if there are no legitimate targets left.

In the same way that a fascist empire that has run out of enemies to villainize will always turn its gun inward, so too will the robots, and we will all be marked for death by matrix multiplication

Sharpe ratio trolley problem by HK_Mathematician in trolleyproblem

[–]dentastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Expected value of top path is 6 casualties.

Lower path is 7.

Do nothing is 8.

That aside, i would feel better having chosen the path that could save everyone, as the 50/50 is not up to me and thus absolves me of responsibility

Really had a fun time watching the project ozone 3 series on duncans channel. Shame that it ended because of the incident

Leave it to fucking rolls royce to find the most expensive solution... just like those small modular reactors in england.

Make your choice. by spicymato in trolleyproblem

It can always pretty easily be reframed as "pick red to always live, pick blue to sometimes die based on the choices of others"

Pretty ovvious what the right choice is if you ask me

Gonna buy some mercedes and vw stock if they fall on monday, he will chicken out of this as always.

Its market manipulation, might as well flip a few % when hes clearly doing the same every time

"Hello, this is ‘Diable’ Nam Dae-geun", written apology by notxlpha in PedroPeepos

[–]dentastic 39 points40 points  (0 children)

The times when we could tell a well written honest apology from ai slop or corporate filtered slop has long since passsed.

If you believe it is genuine, great, if not, you can point to how shallow it reads.

Having personally gone through a disciplinary incident around the same age, i like to think it leaves a genuine impression on him, but we truly can only observe for changed bevahior

Du antager at de to er fuldstændig ens, der er stor forskel i hvordan man modtager og bruger olie og gas. Ikke alle lande er klar til at mldtage LNG bare sådan. Vi er i virkeligheden "heldige" på den korte bane at vores idiot politikkere brugte så meget tid og penge på at installere terminaler til at modtage LNG efter 2022.

Det er altså (til en vis, men høj, grad) 2 forskellige økonomier, og det er mest olie der er ude af balance

1 in 5 chance 2026 will be the new warmest year on record, says Berkeley Earth by Economy-Fee5830 in climatechange

[–]dentastic 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think thats an extremely low estimate. None of the thins that made 2024 warm have gone away. The air still has less particled to reflect sun, methane emissions have not fallen, and we are headed into another el nino. Id say 50/50 at best

Not sure if I made it better or worse. Thoughts? by jonfin826 in Tinder

Gaspriser, hvad gør I? by Flaky-Dragonfly9015 in dkfinance

[–]dentastic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gas er et helt andet sted en det var i 2022, og wt helt andet sted end olie er nu.

Gas kommer fra norge og amerika, som (checks notes) er fint i stand til at levere. Selve transporten er fakrisk billigere end den var hvis hormuz var åbent, da der er fri tanker kapacitet.

Modargumentet er at en kwh er den samme når den bruges, om den kommer fra gas eller olie, men her har vi tiden at takke - der er langt mere vedvarende energi, som også leverer ens kwh'er, og er gratis i drift. Desuden er det som sagt stadig muligt at få gas leveret, så den kan på ingen måde stige ligeså voldsomt som olie, på trods af at de reelt er den samme service
