Comment Re:US also used ~21GW for data-centers in 2024... (Score 1) 55
Which turbine?
The steam turbine or the gas turbine?
The gas turbine is synched to the grid in 30seconds or less and on full output in 90sec.

The current price explosions for reactors under construction says otherwise.
And for what exactly would punny 40GW be of wny use?
Not even to question where to build them and how to prevent riots and turmoil?
The people don't want nuclear power. How fucking stupid are your?
Nuclear is not clean.
Hence we exited.
Of course they pay for the grid.
It is just not a seperate Item in the bill.
The electricity price for German households ist easy to Google. So why invent absurd numbers?

The cheapest price ist below 30cents. The price ist high because the Power companies can get away with it. That ist all.
Power in your country is likely highly subsidized
The percentage of renewables was 64% in 2025, not 56%.
Well,
I know about a (good no idea?) developer who had a lot of money.
He paid "online gamers" to harvest items for him in an online game.
Because he thought (and told so in public): "I love that game, and when I play it the 5h a week while I have time, I want to play it by the most potential".
Using an LLM for coding is more or less the same.
If you have to write 100 lines of code that you have clearly in your mind, and takes 3h to do right, but an LLM can spit it out in 30 seconds
Focus the energy on any point of the planet - when the time is right.
And get away with it
How do you know? Who's checking?
Stupid question.
I am the one checking. Which was pretty clear from my previous post.
What was your point?
Oh, you agree that "leaking" was tackled 100 years ago?
Because they did not run on pay check to pay check limits and/or still where able to do business without computers, or we simply do not know about them.
Again: a million dollar profit bakery which has 10 or 15 places to sell bread and 2 or 3 bakeries, with a computer crash still has the supply chain of incoming flour and other raw materials: as that was an agreed delivery contract months/years ago. So: no immediate harm. They might have some big long term customers (daily delivered) , and they just continue to deliver. Then the remaining customers are day to day passing customers.
While it seriously might be a pain
And then look at the ransomware gangs: they are probably small teams
Well,
he was obviously a pain and probably still is an idiot.
So in other words he should not have been in that job.
He probably was good at social engineering to protect his ass.
God that you got away from him!
They just started the construction of the biggest most gigantic unbelievable big water power plant along the Yarlung Tsangpo river.
Something in the size of 50 nuclear power plants. Of course the project is gigantic and will take a decade or more.
You learn about Kelvin in school.
In Physics, in 5th grade.
So I assume "99.9999% of the human population cann^Ho^Ht^H do that"
And outside of the US: no one is using F
Obviously my assumption above might be wrong. Gosh, we should google now what the temperature scale is in Japan, Kenya or
Perhaps one of those uses F?
Of course in Physics we use Kelvin.
Having a random zero point makes no sense.
About the unit one could argue, as the "degree" (aka one step from one point to the other) is Celsius.
Sitting here after a beer, I have no immediate idea if there is a more plausible "stepping" rate.
For example one could have picked absolute zero and then use Fahrenheit steps. Would make sense or not? Question is: would there be a human conceivable step size that makes more sense in physics? Everything much bigger than Celsius, or much smaller than Fahrenheit would not make so much sense in daily life.
