More of a joke.

American trains do suck compared to other trains.

You're right, nothing compares to one man's anecdotal evidence.

Averages are much better than edge cases in this sort of comparison.

20 years vs 14

I think steam engines are awesome. They worked amazingly well. Ended up being superior to the German car industry during WW2and helped win the war. But everyone got to admit a diesel (and especially electric) train was always going to doom the steam engine.

This says more about how great solar voltaic is than anything else.

That's batteries of the past. The rate of change in batteries has been so dramatic it has left people's understanding behind.

Batteries will far outlive when a ICE car would have been scrapped.

Safer than American trains.

More evidence Britain's the best country in the world.

Drinking on the train to go somewhere sporting, night out. Is a time honoured tradition. Wouldn't change that for all the Trumps in the world.

Rich people owning land and trying to get a mark up on the value or a backhand. Or just being near it.

I know this website is pretty communist and I'm not. But surely anyone with half a brain even a die hard capitalist can see the gain in buying land and resetting the market for what is most valuable now not legacy at what was most valuable in the 60's.

Anyone that is against heavy funding in public transport, tax on land/ reallocation for more density and education isn't a capitalist they are just a cunt.

Honest fuck this.

So you love driving and more people on the road will get off the road and take the train. It means you can drive even more! Why wouldn't you want that.

[–] Wanderer@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

what does that even mean? You can't have nice things because black people exist?

It kind of is though.

Can't have nice downtown because blacks live their so all the whites go out to the suburbs. End up with shitty inefficient suburb hell and under funded downtown.

No one wants to use public transport because of a sense of crime so only the lowest income people use it meaning further funding loss.

Nothing in America is for "the people" paid by the state except highways, oil and pouring water into the desert everything else needs to run a direct profit ignoring externalities.

I think it's a tax on housing. It doesn't make a difference how it's applied. But I like how it incentives less luxury.

Good job America isn't the only country in the world. The transition to renewables isn't even slowing down without America.

 

BRB going out to buy a cloak.

 

"Quantum dot technology has been in TVs for years, so why isn’t it already in solar panels? Well, there are a few challenges. If we can engineer around these challenges, then these little devices could have a BIG impact - breaking the limits of our current solar panels, and ushering in a new and radically more efficient age of solar energy."

 

"Wales needs more funding and "economic fairness" from Westminster, Plaid Cymru has said ahead of its general election manifesto launch later.

Party leader Rhun ap Iorwerth said the general election was "about one thing - the economy".

He said Labour did not offer "meaningful change" after 14 years of "Tory cuts and chaos".

Plaid's manifesto, which is being launched in Cardiff, calls for the Welsh Parliament to have more power over natural resources and funding for public transport."

 

"Yesterday France announced the winners of the 250 MW South Brittany floating offshore wind auction, the world’s first commercial-scale floating offshore wind auction. This is a major milestone for floating offshore wind technology. So far Europe has only built small pilot and demonstrator projects. With yesterday’s announcement floating wind took a big step towards commercialisation and large-scale deployment."

 

Good fight that actually lived up to the hype.

 

SpaceX's Starship rocket, a futuristic vehicle designed to eventually carry astronauts to the moon and beyond, will probably have its fourth flight in 3-5 weeks, the company's Chief Executive Elon Musk said in a post on social media platform X on Saturday.

Renewable energy accounted for more than 30% of the world’s electricity for the first time last year following a rapid rise in wind and solar power, according to new figures.

A report on the global power system has found that the world may be on the brink of driving down fossil fuel generation, even as overall demand for electricity continues to rise.

 

Analysis of Home Office data showed the impact of the shift from EU to non-EU migrants. Migrants from the Middle East, North Africa and Turkey aged 25-64 were almost twice as likely to be economically inactive as someone born in the UK.

Spanish migrants typically earned around 40pc more than migrants from Pakistan or Bangladesh, while migrants from countries such as Canada, Singapore and Australia paid between four and nine times as much income tax as migrants from Somalia or Pakistan.

 

I suck at spelling and would like to know a word I have typed is wrong or not. Ideally with a red underline.

I really struggle looking at text I have written and seeing the mistakes. I have tried Samsung, openboard, gboard. None seem to fix the issue.

I'm willing to download anything as long as it's not a privacy concern. Is there any way to get what I want.

I have a Samsung 22+ if that makes a difference

"Spanish consultancy AleaSoft Energy Forecasting recorded negative hourly electricity prices for all but one European energy market it analyzed during the first week of April, including in the Spanish and Portuguese markets for the first time. It also registered an all-time production record for photovoltaic energy in Portugal and the second highest value ever recorded in Italy"
