There are designs for a giant glass cone put in the middle of the desert. Air under the cone gets warmed and it rises up through a couple turbines on its way out of the device.
I’m just this guy, you know. Except on Lemmy.

Meanwhile in Georgia (USA) they completed a new nuclear power plant and they have to raise rates because it went 100% over its $14 billion budget.
Can’t have pop up headlights or hood ornaments because they’re dangerous to pedestrians.
But you can have a hood that’s six feet tall because that’s totally safe for pedestrians.
White Sands Space Harbor
That is a really cool name
Never buy the brand new model of anything. Computer, car, dishwasher, blender; they all have teething problems that are solved in later versions. Hell, in enterprise IT it’s common to be several major versions back and to pay for security patches rather than keep up with the latest and greatest.
One of my favorite pastries is a maple-bacon long john. It’s a long donut with maple icing and a slice of candied bacon on top.
That could be hundred of kilobytes of data!
My kid’s doctor had their prescription service ransomwared. They paid it, and then got ransomwared again by the same folks.
It’s been six months now, the prescription system is broken, and they’ve been using paper prescriptions since then with no idea when things will get fixed.
Same with Stevie Wonder’s “You Haven’t Done Nothin’”
We are amazed but not amused
By all the things you say that you’ll do
Though much concerned but not involved
With decisions that are made by you
I saw a clip on Just Rolled In where a lady in a Lexus thought she was trapped in her car when the electrics failed, as did the firefighters who broke her window, despite there being manual releases on both the inside and the outside of the car.
I’m with you but I’m still hesitant because I like my manual transmission
I think that was also around the time the timeline went from chronological to algorithm-based
This has always been the first stage of enshittification. Twitter back in 2007 was pretty nice. I made a lot of local friends because they’d post cat pictures and food pictures and we’d have meetups. Really great folks that I found because their posts showed up in a chronological feed alongside other ones I follow.
Then when they switched to an algorithmic feed all those posts by people with low follower counts got drowned out by ones with activity. My friends were still there, I just didn’t see them because The Algorithm decided I didn’t want to. I stopped using Twitter not long after that.
If they’re servicing that many users their UX should be better, but it’s not. Search should work better, but it doesn’t. They should let me make playlists, but they don’t.
Yes, scale is hard but it shouldn’t be hard to put a clock in the pause screen showing me what time the show will be done. And that’s just a tiny way Plex is better.
It’s amazing how I can run a better streaming service from my basement than the ones I pay for.
I mean, operate a massive illegal streaming service that has more content than everyone combined, but don’t be so tacky as to charge for it.
Imagine how many people die every year commuting to jobs they could have done from home
I remember folks at that other site bragging they were gonna use their stimmies to buy more stonks
I was nervous before mine, but it wasn’t bad at all. The worst part was the slight pinch in my balls when they gave me the local anesthetic. It took about fifteen minutes, and I walked out just fine.
I sat on the couch all weekend and watched action movies which was awesome. Ibuprofen was more than enough for the pain, and I was able to do light house work in a couple days.
Get some reviews of doctors in your area, but I would definitely recommend getting one if you don’t want any kids.
