I think something people on the far right don't grasp about economics (and FWIW Democracy 4 does a great job of demonstrating), its that you cannot just fire a huge bunch of state employees overnight. This turns them all from taxpayers and consumers into benefits claimants.

Great day so far for my solar farm. Its been about a week since we generated 7MWH in a day. Nice to see this happen on the day my country is stupid enough to throw my money at subsidizing nuclear power, a laughably expensive and stupid way to generate electricity. FWIW My farm

Look where the big percentage increases are in the #SpendingReview! Most of those increases are around 2-3% with the exception of Department for Energy Security and Net Zero at 16% and, separately, #SizewellC at 15.6%! #StopSizewellC

You know this stuff Matt. After 80% the BMS slows power into the battery to protect it. And who charges at over 80%, just as who fills up a petrol or diesel at 80% full? If you’re trying to say you think electric cars are crap - say so. But don’t create non-stories just for

More than 200 journalists have been killed by the Israeli army. More than the number killed in World war I & 2 combined.   Israel is targeting the media to suppress news of their daily atrocities. When will we act against this criminal regime?   1/4

So, the fascist mango in power in Jan, by June, senators dragged away by the FBI, US troops on the streets targeting protesters. I reckon by December US troops will have shot US citizens with live ammo at protests. Could be sooner. Fascism comes at you fast. USA is finished.

Generating a nice bunch of clean renewable energy on the farm right now. Today has had cloud and showers, but a great week coming up. I hope this post angers the hell out of all you pathetic climate-change denying reform and trump voting imbeciles :D.

🇨🇳 China has launched the world's first sodium-powered passenger train. This is not a prototype, it is a passenger train powered by a battery made from one of the most abundant elements on Earth. There are valid use cases to use sodium instead of lithium. The train, jas been

It doesn't sound like much work,. but adding the red glowy pulsing bits and purple glowy bits to these ships is fiddly and takes a while, but its done now. Trying to make the ship[s seem more dynamic and alive :D Wishlist this game, or follow it on steam at

I had a lot of work tasks scheduled for today, but forgot to include a contingency for finding rabbits trapped behind the television. A rookie move. Always expect the unexpected. #gamedevelopment.

More EVs are now sold every year in China than cars - of all sorts - are sold in the US. This trend isn't stopping. EVs are all of the growth in the global auto market since 2017. via Felix Hamer • electricfelix

Yup, lets criminalize the putin-puppets spreading bullshit lies about climate change. Frankly I'd do more than just lock them up. They are basically guilty of treason. theguardian.com/environment/20…

"Israeli health minister says "red line has been crossed" by Iranian strike on hospital" Absolute fucking scumbag. But israeli tanks opening fire on children queueing for food aid is just fine right? I want NO PART in the UK helping the fascist scumbag state of Israel.

A floating solar farm, on a lake built from an old coal mine. This is how to do it. Obviously its in China, where the fight against climate change is actually taken seriously.
