  • UK wind farms generate a record 22.7 GW of power on a single day

    Jump

  • Well this is after curtailment. It's power in the grid.

    ...but yes there is a problem getting the power from the farms (mainly Scottish ones) to where it could offset gas turbine generators (mainly the south). So they have to turn turbines off.

    Newer farms are tending to be built in more varied locations making it less of a concentrated problem, but it's a real thing and why there's been lots of talk of needing new pylons.

  • It's over a 30 minute period.

    It's important because it shows our online capacity continues to grow. We're not decommissioning old turbines faster the bringing new ones online.

  • When the wind blows it brings prices down now, often to sub-5p per kWh. I find myself wishing for wind to get a cheap day.

  • Valve put up a new Steam Linux Runtime 4.0 with a move towards 64-bit

  • "unable to contact server" would do. It tells me it's not a problem on my end.

  • You're not alone. I had the same thing on two machines yesterday. (Not flatpack)

  • When will AI bubble pop?

    Jump

  • ...which you want to happen as soon as possible, else the bubble just gets bigger.

  • Belgium forms far-right party TRUMP named after Donald Trump

    Jump

  • I think that's how the word is used across Europe. Not the American "do what the people want" way.

  • European drone recommendation

    Jump

  • I hear that Ukraine is a good manufacturer of drones now. I think they mainly ship to Russia though.

    ...sorry.

  • Reselling tickets for profit to be outlawed in UK government crackdown

    Jump

  • How about limiting numbers of tickets sold to corporations to some number? Many major sporting events are almost impossible to attend unless you're invited by a corporate entity that has some allocation. Quite often the people who do go aren't interested in the event and are just there to get drunk on free booze.

    Kick the corporations out.

  • I'd rather it was a browser extension.

  • Has bad branding ever turned you off from software, FOSS or not?

  • More fool you. There's some damn good software in that list.

  • Apparently they've started pumping again after only 2 days. I guess the bottom set of equipment was undamaged enough to repair quickly.

  • The richest get to decide when to deflate the bubble.

    The only thing the rest of us can do is to try to survive the fallout.

    Tell that to Lehman Brothers.

  • Why go through the trouble to use Arch?

    Jump
    • It's amazingly stable even though it's a rolling release.
    • Up to date.
    • Maintained by many many knowledgeable people.
    • Arch Wiki
    • 99% of software you need is packaged, and then there's AUR too.

    That's about it, but its my daily driver on desktop and laptop.

  • Are you ready for a $1,000 Steam Machine? Some analysts think you should be.

    Jump

  • I certainly remember PS2 consoles being used like that. The cell processor was impressive.
