It’s Lemmy lol if you don’t use your own airgapped Linux distro you’re a complete cuck

If it’s a mesh system yes running wires would be a nice upgrade

Wired backhaul?

I agree with your idea but granting a utility the right to determine to whom they distribute power is not an easy task nor should it be taken lightly. In order to do that, you have to have regulators make the rule and then utilities obey. Utilities can’t (and shouldn’t) just deny a customer service because they don’t agree with what the customer is going to do with that power. Sanctioned natural monopolies come with regulations in most places. And in order to enforce rules, the wheels of regulatory bodies must churn and we know how slow that can be.

In theory, if you got an entity to bring x megawatts of renewable capacity online as a requirement of a new electric service load, you could tie production to data center use. Then if you ensured that the customer had controllable load to match the output of the corresponding renewable generation you could have a minimal impact growth. But that’s an absurdly complicated solution that would likely take a decade to develop and implement even if you had the political will.

I do not know what the best solution is other than to make more renewable electricity and store it, and maybe nuclear (if it didn’t take 10 years to build a plant).

Did you reply to the right thread mate

In units of actual drugs: 9,500kg $250m

$263/gram Street price in Australia, maybe, but extremely overestimated. Assuming they cut it, likely closer to $150/g in the street upon distribution in Europe.

RIP what a hero. Anyone know of a replacement? Will these eventually stop working?

What do you want to do? You could try to Ppick a problem and then find a service to solve it. Maybe a pi hole ad blocker, or homeassistant for home automation. Both of these run well on a pi. Then follow the guide to deploy those services.

Paid plex + Emby shares. C/piracy can’t fathom paying $5-10/mo for a catalog of almost all media ever (and if it’s not there, request it) that works well on multiple platforms and has a high spouse approval factor but it’s fantastic.

What do you mean by KW/km when you discuss efficiency?
