Eh, HRSG’s got real popular in the 90s and now most major plants have them. Its not a rapidly changing space, dont get me wrong. But new shit comes around every so often.

Are you saying that if there was a thermal battery in neighborhood you wouldnt need pumps? You know how a fucking thermal battery works? You realize most of the central heating systems you’re talking about heated the water by using coal plants to send super heated steam to them right? Where did you think that hot water came from?

Oh, I understand now, you live in a pretend world of idealistic ignorance. Thats not now ebs and flows of energy demand work. You shouldn’t participate in a conversation if you 1. Don’t understand realisticly how the subject works 2. Are so biased against the reality of the situation you make completely insane attempts to justify your ideas.

So you’re against nuclear power too?
- Comment on Grid-Scale Bubble Batteries Will Soon Be Everywhere 5 days ago:
A process called DAC (Direct Air Capture) is currently used on medium scale to do this. Other instances in which they obtain CO2 is by capturing byproduct of industrial processes or power plants. Again though, and I dont think this is sinking in, it is a closed loop system. So, once enough CO2 is captured, thats all that battery will ever need. Its not using new fuel to create more co2 it’s taking a specific amount from currently available, filling the battery ONCE then process over. You didn’t adress anything else I said.

You understand this isnt about a new way to generate electricity right? This is about a new way to store it. The CO2 is in a CLOSED LOOP system meaning its not going to be leaching into the atmosphere. The issue with many renewables is they can’t operate well in swings. Thats why electricity price is constantly fluctuating, because the demand is. So a sustainable way to store renewable generated energy will be able to accommodate those swings in demand in a way plain solar panels/wind/hydro alone can’t. The CO2 is likely harvested directly from the atmosphere. Once the battery has X amount of CO2 it no longer needs more because again, its a closed loop.

Thats not what this is regardless of what you’d personally like it to be.

That is indeed a shower thought.

I told my doctor friend I’m basically a doctor for my power plant(mechanical engineer/power plant operator). He told me I’m a certified nursing assistant at best.

Are you thinking mental health is just a scapegoat and the mental state of shooters has nothing to do with the reason they commited the crime?

I can’t possibly see how this ends poorly.

As much as Starfield is hated, I like how they did the difficulty settings. Each type of interaction has different settings, the easier the less XP the harder the more XP earned. I like fragmented difficulty settings, not just easy, normal, hard and nightmare fuck myself have no fun.

I’d heavily disagree. Less of a shower thought, more of a cry for help. Reach out do anyone, you’d be surprised by who is willing to listen.
