Not caring about politics is a luxury afforded by living in a country that has had at least a semi-functional political landscape for a while. Those who have lived under oppressive governments will be the first to tell you not to take for granted what you have.
A single nuclear unit in the US typically has 1 GW output or less. Some plants have multiple units. A two unit plant might have around 2 GW output for instance.
See, that kind of back talk puts you first in line for the period-inaccurate execution.
I could be wrong, but my understanding is that your body needs certain levels of one of those two hormones in order to stay healthy. Specifically for mtf transition, hrt would be a lifelong endeavor if your gonads are removed. Or so I thought?
Is this all elected officials? I'm confused where these numbers are coming from.
Good for him, glad he's found what makes him happy and that he has the freedom to do it.
To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand cropped memes. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of memetics and linguistics most of the jokes will go over a typical reader's head. There's also the high contrast color pallette, which is deftly woven into the message. Lemmy users understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realise that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike cropped memes truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in longing for the bottom half of the text, "Join our Discord". I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as the meme's genius wit unfolds itself on their smartphone screens. What fools..
The US used over 3.6 million gigawatts hours of energy in 2020. If you round down, and assume no increase in the last 4 years, that's over 9800 per day. 30 is a drop in the bucket. We have combined cycle natural gas plants, along with other green options to pick up for dips in production exactly like this.
A better question is how much energy we gain from solar if losing it for a couple hours once a decade or so is such a big deal.
Less, "blissfully unaware," more, "generally apathetic because I didn't realise I had a dark cloud contaminating the positive experiences in my life."
It is a luxury to not consider worrying about yourself as related to politics.
