Dangerous, it makes the USA an enemy to the entirety of the EU and all of NATO except the USA. Its not just stupid, its caused a permanent relationship change that has changed the EUs posture to defending itself from US aggression and to divest entirely. Nothing the USA does now will change that, this is happening and will continue to happen.

Realistically it needs to take account of the wet bulb temperature since the UK has quite a varied humidity and it also likely needs to account for exertion as well.

I really wish the ground combat was better or entirely ignorable because its not as good as the space ship combat aspects of the game.

This is going to keep happening while governments continue to starve local governance of funds needed to meet their legal obligations. They are forced to sell off assets to keep solvent. This seems to be the strategy from central governments to sell off all state wealth.

There are already companies mass producing solid state batteries with ~380KWh densities for a Litre, substantially better than Li-ion and safer as well since they don’t ignite. They just aren’t at the sort of scale yet where a lot of the market will be using them.

The UK is going backwards on social issues really fast at the moment as the far right has grown. Its going to get much worse after the next election if support for parties stays broadly similar to what it is now.

Even before the price increases coming from these huge power guzzlers being built solar and batteries has paid off. Its not uncommon to see something like 5 cent a KWh or payoff in about 7 to 10 years depending on which way you want to look at it. Solar is so good for this, it scales from house level all the way up to big grid projects in the MWs.

I have never killed an SSD with wear. I have had their controllers die long before they should (OCZ drives!) but even my original 80GB Intel Gen 1 SSD is still kicking along working happily with about 70% of its wear remaining. All my modern era gen 3 and above drives are still working and nothing below 93%. Its enormously difficult to get SSDs worn out on a desktop or home server.

The disease might not show symptoms for around 1-8 weeks, which at the top end is 56 days.

The antisemitic cartoons in 4 newspapers have been appalling. The press has been an absolute disgrace in this election.

And they pick and choose which laws they choose to follow themselves just as frequently.

apt dist-upgrade is a necessary change to your process in place of just upgrade.

Definitely worth waiting a few weeks and letting the post release patches roll through. I tend to start looking at it for my server upgrade about a month after its officially released, anything earlier is usually under heavy updates. IIRC do-release-upgrade on the server releases typically doesn’t even allow upgrades for at least a month.
