If only I had a podcast? This is an interesting story theregister.com/2022/04/20/val… I'm sure something is missing from this report though? While ValueLicensing is missing out on potentially buying old licences to resell, I would have thought it was more beneficial for customers to surrender those licenses in return for a discount on M365? Indeed, eventually, ValueLicensing will run out of licenses to sell anyway? Maybe that's why they're suing?
I started watching: Anatomy of a Scandal on Netflix. The moment I saw the cliche scene of The Libertines, I let out a sigh. "I just know how this is going to end."

So my QNAP TS-251B is fixed. Not quite sure how tbh. I read a write-up that walked you through a reset but advised that it would wipe the drives. Luckily, I could still access the NAS from the cloud so downloaded all the important stuff. anyway, I bit the bullet and pressed reset and the voice said "Advanced Reset started" after a reboot, the NAS was back and so was my content Had to re-implement my personal configuration such as fixed IP etc but well chuffed it didn't wipe the drives.
Thought I would abuse my body at lunchtime and visited Morrisons for a Meal Deal "Sausage and chips please." I asked. Four sausages, FOUR! No wonder people are fat.
I've killed my @QNAP TS-251B I clicked on virtual machines and it said it was configuring network and "Shazam!" it is no longer on the network and I have no way of getting into it. 😭
Don't you dare @govuk waste public money on an inquiry into Rishi Sunak and his wife. I guarantee they won't have done anything illegal which is why he wants an inquiry. What they have done is morally wrong which it could be argued is far worse given how everyone is feeling the pinch at the moment.

Never mind all these schemes for loft and cavity wall installation most of which are a scam anyway. The government should pay for every house in the UK to have solar panels fitted and make it law that new builds must have solar panel roofs. They never will because the energy industry will resist it as it will eat into their profits.
Spain should be producing solar energy like there was no other option but government some years ago made a law that made it difficult to small and individual producers so all control is in hands of big companies which don't want for that same reason. Europe should have learned that lesson during the first energy crisis in the seventies but you know who runs the show.
Last night, the wife watched the news: "So do we not have any Nuclear Power stations then, Bubb?" I replied that we have a few, but forty years ago, they decided to decommission most of them. Now we're looking to build some! Personally, while they are fecking dangerous, I see no other option unless we want every spare square of land hosting a fooking wind turbine.
Nuclear are pretty safe, when they have a problem is a big disaster, but they don't do CO2 which is really good. And for the wind turbines they can be put on the sea. We just need to invest on those technologies and we have lost 40 years IMHO. Right now I think we need the nuclear, though I don't like it much. @tpheine
I don't agree on the Nuclear thing. It's the most expensive way of energy generating if you consider the cost of waste storage.
However, I believe if we work together around the world we could solve it with renewable energy (wind, water, solar)...and of course with a strict recycling/repair/sustainability policy.
Agree but till we can get all our energy from renewable we need to produce energy with the les CO2 we can, when we get it we use the nuclear for space missions only. And a big yes to the recycling/repair/sustainability policy, really strict. o@srednivashtar@castlecannon.house
Are you sure we are so far away from this goal? This week in German News we had a law passed by the gov that we want to increase our 40% actual coverage to 80% until 2030, without the private households, which maybe could add up to 100%.
Official gov source with figures from 2021 (unfortunately in German, but the numbers and pics are self explaining)
Aktuelle und qualitätsgesicherte Daten zur Entwicklung der erneuerbaren Energien in Deutschland sind ein wichtiger Baustein zur Bewertung der Energiewende.
I agree. But, you know, we had (right, past ) solutions for this issue: in Dresden we had a 120MW pumped storage power plant since 1930, with a storage capacity of 560-590 MWh.
So all I am saying is, that we had and still have solutions for storage, but capitalism keeps us away from it.
And the same groups of power have stopped/slowed the development of better technology cause it's cheaper and more profitable for them to maintain the status quo.
Nuclear energy is based on monumental hubris. It is premised on the fact that we can deal with its dangerous byproducts for, at the very minimum, longer than humans have been doing agriculture.
Case in point: the UK has lost ALL the records of where it buried its first ten years' worth of nuclear waste.

So all these Russian troops that have been lied to and are supposedly unaware they are in a war with Ukraine, running away at the first sign of danger. The same forces are also behaving like demented invaders and committing atrocities? Something smells if you ask me. Anyone remember WMD? 🤔

Emily Davison didn't chuck herself under a horse so that you lazy feckers could sit on your arse and say: "What's the point of voting?" Get it sorted! Go and vote! You can spare 5 minutes of your day.

Took Charlie to the park this morning. Fairly cold, -1C but enjoyed meeting the fellow dog walkers until we were nearly on our way out of the park and a woman I've not seen for a while said: "Have you retired now?"
