That reminds me of an actual deployment. USAF, our backup generator had a blown regulation system. Our solution was literally that whenever we had to go onto it, we'd station an airman at the generator manually turning the adjustment knobs to keep it at 240V@60Hz.
You could hear the birds all the time. I don't care about cheap gas, but cars make cities noisy, ugly, polluted and dangerous. I only realised this in covid when almost all of the cars went and councils allocate more space for everything else for social distancing.
I"ve been trying to figure out what ya'll were trying to say about no cars, etc.....then it dawned on me that ya'll must be living where they had lockdowns.
Where I lived, sure, traffic was lessened due to more WFH, but it certainly didn't go away to any levels of no cars on the roads and hearing the birds chirping any more than normal....
Glad I didn't live where ya'll do.....for the most part my life didn't change all THAT much after the first month or so...it was largely getting back to normal.
Your hypothesis is that Japanese people aren't having as many kids because of climate change?
I guess so....apparently it is too hot outside for young people to fuck....?
Wow...that never was much of a deterrent to me back in my younger days...
Aww, I was getting excited for Jews in space.
I'm still waiting to see Hitler on Ice.....
I almost wonder if that's actually a dude who was on the flight or someone taking advantage of an opportunity to get in the news.
Seems so unlikely.
Outage expected for at least the next week or two...
"We matched you with somebody who REALLY likes horses!"
Hey....Tim Walz needs love too you know....
I know I've seen channels like MAC and Sootch , etc complaining they couldn't show this or that without getting strikes...
but there was a major (and predictable) power outage in Lousiana two or three weeks ago that made the national news.
I LIVE in the New Orleans area in Louisiana, and I know nothing about this power outage you speak of....?
I never saw anything about this on local or national news....?
They ban videos showing someone screwing on/off a silencer these days.....it didn't used to be this strict....
Yeah, because "Al Gore" is a scientist.
... right? Maybe you should see what "the Science" is....
You are correct sir!!
I do believe the title of "the Science" has been claimed by one Mr. Faucci....
If I had a rubber for slashdot I could fix this.
In American slang, "rubber" commonly refers to a condom. It's an informal term for a contraceptive device.
Yup...I was confused at him replying he wanted to fuck it safely.....
At this point, I still have no idea what he's trying to say here.....
Look at what recently occured both in Spain and in Louisiana, despite certainly some healthy effort (and planning one would hope) to keep the grid in those areas running fine under difficult conditions.
Not sure what you mean about Louisiana...?
I mean, we've not nothing like Spain hit us....
A few years ago, I believe it was Hurricane Ida that hit and knocked down all transmission lines into the greater New Orleans area....power was out there about a month, but that's Hurricane damage....catastrophic damage to an area which you expect to lose power for a bit.
Are you referring to that or something else which I don't know about.....we've not had anything hit similar to Spain.
They are called computers simply because computation is the only significant job that has so far been given to them.
