- Comment on Texas Senate passes bill requiring solar plants to provide power at night 3 hours ago:
Chemical batteries or all “batteries”. Sounds ridiculous both ways… But anyway.
Lots of things get called batteries now days, but AFAIK this is a temperature gradient of salt water.

- Comment on One US politician wants to add trackers to Nvidia's GPUs so they can be bricked if they go to China 6 days ago:
Nvidia make shittone from selling to China, so long as they can still sell to China, they will make whatever is allowed to be sent there. New restrictions? New cards get created to fit.

Cigarette lighter and a small nail/pin. Heat it up and scrape out what you can. Heat the nail and print head.
Little kitchen blow torch / jet lighter for better effect.

Was using realvnc to vnc from remote, it was easy and cloud driven.

- Comment on What does the 3-2-1 rule look like for you? 2 months ago:
2x 2TB with rsync 2X 500GB with rsync. 1x 1TB cloud drive via rsync
The 2TB has a 500GB dir that gets cloned to the other 2 500GB drives and the cloud.
4 drives, 2 locations (1 offsite)
I could spare 500gb portion somewhere I guess but it’s just easy atm that the important 500GB gets copied around 1x a week.

- Comment on We need faster speed limits in Australia - and I'm not saying that because I'm a hoon | Opinion - Car News 3 months ago:
Agree with the economic points.
Yes wombats etc would not be able to reach autobahns in most cases.
10 times the size of Germany
Germany is incredibly dense with roads and I’d say would have more paved highway KMs than Australia.
Thing is with the unpaved stuff in Aus you can often already do your 130+ cos nobody is around.
- Comment on We need faster speed limits in Australia - and I'm not saying that because I'm a hoon | Opinion - Car News 3 months ago:
I’ve lived in Germany for 10 years and been 250ish on the autobahn.
Australian roads are no where near the quality, smoothness, curvature and undulation specs needed for 150+
I could see maybe some places the roads could be 130ish. But only for minute stretches.
But as for driving standards, no fucking way. Eg you cannot have people in the far right lane “I’m going the speed limit” so sit behind me.
Stay left unless overtaking for a good 5 years first, then can think about increasing speed limits.
PS this only works on separated direction freeways.

- Comment on An unwritten 'country code' is putting Rob's life at risk on the road, and all he's doing is turning right 5 months ago:
Just gonna say, ive said thanks out loud in the car and given the truck the thumbs up after he just gave one or two clicks of the right-hand blinker saying we could pass (after being on their arse for a few kms). Multiple times.
But if it was stuck on and still blinking then I would not pass.
Just saying… Cos they’re not gonna write an article like this and it not existing.

That wasn’t my question. But I think I got the answer now, “Most posters are left leaning.”
Easy.

You can try a markdown formatted table!
Works good in github readme, and here in Voyager/lemmy, not sure about codeberg.
ChatGPT would make quick work of creating it from your data, then just copy and paste. Should render in rich text mode like this
markdown table x y |markdown|table| |--|---| |x|y|
Not hugely Scalable but is easily readable
