Alien: You know their big stripes? They can’t even see them themselves!

Can they run vlc?

Couldn’t it hallucinate bad instructions to give to more AI agents? Give it a feedback loop and who knows where the idiot will end up.

At that point it is essentially a barely guided random command generator.

Oats, enough water to form a dough. Maybe some salt.

Tempted to try using an oat sourdough starter though.

Depends what you compare it to really. Its better than ICE cars, but electric bike, bus or train is even better.

I cycle to work and that is 8km each way. Takes about 20-25 mins depending on how much I have to wait for car traffic and if I can filter past them.

At this point I’ll gladly bake oat bannocks over the burning ruins of the US economy to survive.

Luigi did the right thing. Can I join?

Yeah to fully charge for longer drives you kinda need the roof of your house. I know a few people who drive EVs fully charge on solar like that.

I don’t have a car so no need myself and ebike restrictions are so extreme in the UK that I don’t see the point for myself. 250w and 15.5mph limit, I can cycle pretty much that fast anyway. 13mph is the AVERAGE speed I go to work and that includes stopping for cars and lights. So potentially a road legal ebike would just be a dead weight motor to pedal against most of the time.

A spare wheel with a motor on it that I can swap between to convert it into an ebike for long distance rides could be cool. But ebike throttles are also not road legal. Must be pedal assistance only, and that seems like it might be quite a lot to convert it each time I switch. Maybe I need to talk my partner into getting an ebike that we could both use…

Other than the extra weight, larger battery doesn’t matter.

If you had a 500MWh battery and it takes half a year to charge it doesn’t matter for the solar panel if you only actually use 5kWh a day.

Just looked it up, sounds like Americans drive way more. In the UK I cycle around as much as the average lazy fuck person drives.

Stats for typical driving distances are comically low. Quite a lot of people would drive distances below 1km.

Who is emptying an entire battery every day though? For low distance usage it might not be too bad.

Wouldn’t it depend how much you drive though? I am kinda curious what sort of distance/day it could get. Also lighter cars might help.

Solar tuktuk?

I use it for things I rarely ever use, like the microwave.

I would get rid of it but sometimes when we invite people over to have food and they bring microwave meals.

Yes. Please do that.

Yeah just continue to overwork doctors and nurses, I am sure its fine.

I have thought of this. Paying people less could work out alright if you bring down their living costs. Housing is most of that and a lot of that cost goes to profit for banks.

Bring the cost of housing down and a lot of people will probably be happy to reduce hours worked. If you have a high unemployment rate there should be plenty of people to cover those extra hours too.

Depends on the beach. Certainly seen some that could be a few metres above the high tide line.

Wouldn’t mind a cool cellar to retreat to at this point tbh. Diggy diggy hole!

But doing it reasonably safely probably costs a fair bit for materials to reinforce the soil.

There are some shells you can get that you bury to make a cellar like this. Sand would be very easy to do this with. It would also be less efficient, pretty sure heavy soils make better cellars.
