that's way more power than needed to feed 800W out 24/7, what happens with the rest?

fresh hellish nonsense brought to you by ai-gen podcasts enabled by techbros interpretation of consent and privacy:

https://www.404media.co/this-company-is-secretly-turning-your-zoom-calls-into-ai-podcasts/

WebinarTV, a company that bills itself as “a search engine for the best webinars,” is secretly scanning the internet for Zoom meeting links, recording the calls, and turning them into AI-generated podcasts for profit. In some cases, people only found out that their Zoom calls were recorded once WebinarTV reached out to them directly to say their call was turned into a podcast in an attempt to promote WebinarTV’s services.

“WebinarTV is believed to leverage a range of browser extensions that provide functionalities such as AI powered transcription and note-taking tools, or tools to automate the joining of online meetings. The platform mostly relies on the widespread use of these tools by end users, rather than operating them directly. However, at least one of the known extensions is listed on the Chrome Web Store as developed by WebinarTV.”

i see elsewhere that wikipedia after all restricted a bit more use of chatbots, and i'm very interested how much kicking and screaming did it involve

Adding to that, logistics are such that direct impact will be felt strongest in places like India that rely heavily on Qatari LNG to make fertilizer, but many places have other sources of both gas and fertilizer. Americas, EU, Russia and China will get by because they have their own supply and will be only affected by price increase

without synthetic nitrogen fertilizer there's only enough reactive nitrogen going around for something like 1-1.5B people. yea mate very sustainable to retvrn to traditional farming and starve 80% of the planet in the process

good, dare i say, based even. you better start figuring out where to put these panels, because roofs and parking lots won't be enough (maybe taking into account soil type and how it is already used)

some people think that solar panels suck out solar energy from around like some kind of evil wizard depleting lifeforce and never heard about shadows

Remind these racist idiots that Chinese went all on solar and aren't affected as much by oil supply problems, and you wouldn't like to be worse than them, right,

maybe it's carbon monoxide detector going off, it would make more sense
