Very "creative" accept terms & condition overscrolling window, made me close the website after 2 seconds, while I was actually interested in their content

Palette rotation was also heavily used by Ultima & Origin games up to U8 - Pagan

Yesterday, I killed my weekly limit with just three prompts and went into extra usage for ~18USD on top

And rounded corners, of course! :)


these are the reasons why I like Claude! when you are talking to it just normal, it recognizes and adapts and does none of these things

...and customer support!


If it goes down, what happens to all the buildings using geo/earth heat with these probe heads to collect the energy?

Does this effect occur in lets say 10-20 years or is this longterm like 50y+?


At a certain point there won’t be enough heat recovered from the geothermal side of the loop to generate steam on the process side of the loop and power generation will cease. I’m not smart enough to calculate how long that will take, however. I think you could still use the geothermal energy at a lower temperature for district heating and cooling, but a mechanical engineer would be more qualified to answer that.


wasnt New Zealand also already far up beyond 90% renewable electricity a couple of years ago?


They are blessed with all three of hydro, geothermal, and wind.


Do we have many countries around where wind is not a thing?


And sun isn't uncommon. I was chatting with a person in Auckland, NZ. He said it was a cloudly day and he was producing much more solar power than he needed. His take: the panels are the cheapest part of the system so they just over-provisioned. We can all do that - it aint hard


Our rainy day production is still a fifth * of our peak in Kerala, India. Wish all inverters support 5x overprovisioning, current ones support 1.5x and suffer lower life. Seems 1.1x is the recommended provisioning guideline.

* UK internet stranger said he gets negligible output when it rains


Thanks for the feedback about inverters - I was unaware.

I'd imagine quite a lot of smaller ones don't have anything. Take a look at https://energy.usgs.gov/uswtdb/viewer/ and notice that huge swaths of the US have almost no wind turbines.

No :)


does you agent only print "Hello World" on console ? or it uses any service ;)
