It’s a win-win. Those batteries are thousands of bucks.
It fully fucking misses the point, we should own the power we produce from our own fucking homes.

The god in Hyperion is named after that bird. Great scifi classic.
- Comment on It genuinely upsets me that Valve spent their time and resources on another Dota variation 3 weeks ago:
Lol nope, Deadlock has nothing like that in it. It’s an excellent example of what we would ask for in our online multiplayer games.
I am not happy about it, but complaining about Deadlock is spitting on what we should be rewarding imo
- Comment on It genuinely upsets me that Valve spent their time and resources on another Dota variation 3 weeks ago:
My immediate emotional reaction is to dunk on you. Boo hoo, a company won’t make a game you want. But you’re missing the valve you grew up with, and gaming is worse off now. Multiplayer games with subscription models and microtransactions have become the default, and we all feel it.
For me Deadlock has great characters, lore, new interesting mechanics, and only surface level similarities with DOTA. I’m not upset about it really. Just happy Valve is making anything again. Maybe I’m worn down, but so many big companies take but shits everyday I’m just happy to see one building good shit. (And it’s free!)

Difference between this and helium is helium follows rules of the universe, and this fucking contract law is human-enforced.
- Comment on How is Lemmy better than Reddit? 4 weeks ago:
That’s actually new information to me! The news was pointing to a broader push to subscriptions for subreddits site wide. Definitely not doing that.
I also admit that I am deeply unhappy with reddits enshittification. I’ve been on reddit for over a decade and joined when I was in highschool. Moving was the last thing I wanted, but I’m more aware of the big-corp-monopoly we’re all suffering under. This is part of it.
- Comment on How is Lemmy better than Reddit? 4 weeks ago:
I recently migrated here. I did so as a precaution, and sometimes browse reddit still. Reddit IPO’ed, and is now focused on making money. They removed the API to centralize it’s power and remove 3rd party apps. They threatened subreddits who protested, and shut some down. And have made sweeping changes to accommodate to advertisers. The straw that broke the snoo’s back was the CEO hinting at subreddit paywalls. I figured I would try to learn Lemmy again, and what do you know, it’s more serious, has better comments and posts, segmented even more than reddit with the distros, and fully free/open source. It also helps that I’m a huge computer nerd, and there’s a lot of that on here, but you can find your niche.

This seems intensely useful if it was matured and solid. Compressing down complexity is usually very valuable in tech, like Markdown is.
