There are dozens of us! Dozens!!!

I guess that explains why Poettering went to work for Microsoft…

I do not want and also do not have children.

However, my nieces are an absolute joy made all the better by the fact I can give them back when I reach my limit. 😐

That’s just the Cleveland Steamer. You’ll get used to the sensation soon.

Good thing is not potato. Because I do not have potato.

Wooden magnets? Now you’ve got to be making this up…

I have an older surface laptop I won as a prize at a conference. It is still receiving updates, works great (for what it is), and only has 4gigs of ram.

They can do it. They don’t want to.

Perhaps you should be the shotposting alt account you want to see in the world…

It’s yours now

You son of a bitch, I’m in!

Yup, can definitely identify that there is a spider in that image.

The bigger the gob, the better the job!

Please tag all shitposts so I can look at them first.

So, no, there isn’t. However, there is a signed conlang that is attempting to serve the same purposes as Esperanto but with hand signs.

Oooo, thanks!

So, working for a power company, I have some insight for you on this. This is still the power companies doing bullshit, but there is some truth to the grid being unable to handle electric vehicles. We are seeing the same issue with electric tankless water heaters.

Most companies, unless you ask and pay for it, will size a transformer for your house as small as they can get away with. 15 to 25kVA is kinda standard for overhead, while 50 to 75kVA for padmount is usual (because the same transformer will serve two to four houses).

If you install a fast charger on your house, and run the dryer, and the water heater turns on, the fuse will blow on the transformer. Then you call in an outage, they have to put a new fuse on, and usually don’t tell you what was wrong. Then once you figure it out, they have to tell you that you can’t do all that (and lose revenue from all the downtime and sending a technican) or they have to put up a bigger transformer.

It’s far easier to say “lol our grid is old and bad” than “we don’t want to spend out profits on needed upgrades and maintenance”. Meanwhile, data centers are exclusively connected directly to a substation that can handle their needs or to their own dedicated transformer banks directly off of transmission lines. Never are they on some back woods tap fifteen miles from their substation.

It’s mzrk, isn’t it.
