They can't replace nuclear, at least not without insanely huge energy storage.

Either metal/Tidal or bicycling on GCN.

Not sure if I get it entirely. With classical heatpump (and by this I mean the one for heating) the external unit expands the refrigerant, so it absorbs the heat from air. If it was used for AC, then it should compress it instead. But if I understand properly (doubt) 4 way valve, I would require an unit that either compress it outside or expands it inside.

Also other countries have higher labor cost and rightly so.

That's basically two units in one or how does it work?

I guess that depends on the settings. I'd still click sa~~v~~fe remove, though.

Not really. Windows and assume Linux cache writes and might actually write after you thought it's written, that's why you have to always unmount USB drives before you pull them out.

That's why we need an alternative to US credit cards yesterday. And also a spine transplant to politicians.

I for one am ditching Windows and Office which I've been using professionally since Windows 3.0. It's the year of the Linux for me. As per data in US clouds (even hosted in EU), it was never safe.

I'm looking for a front light "for being seen" that can be mounted under K-Edge mount - GoPro adapter. Not looking for something heavier that illuminates the road ahead (thought I might in future). It has to e rechargeable, USB-C preferably and available in EU. Any suggestions? TIA

Well written thoughts on C#12 primary constructors. Sadly they are not really useful. At least for now.

I was always wondering this. Imagine a steep descent. What is better for brake wear - braking constantly or more powerful just at the end? Anybody knows? Goes for both rim and disc brakes

I'm considering Fiido Titan as e-bike for shopping and short distance commuting. It's hilly where I need it. Any thoughts on bike quality or anything else? From a review on YouTube it seems decent enough. TIA

in what shape is Jonas? (programming.dev)

Hopeful Jonas recovered after all the injuries, but I somehow doubt it that he'll be at 100% after those injuries without much time to recover. While I'm rooting for PogRog, I fear a repeat of Giro, where Pog dominated and made it boring to watch. Or perhaps Remco will kick in, but then again he was also injured and didn't do well at Dauphine. What's you take?

Eurosport started sending e-mails that they are discontinuing streaming (premium) service in favor of HBO MAX. Which is much, like 3x more expensive if you happen to watch only bicycling or some other sports and you don't care about other stuff. Even more odd is that they were sending e-mails like a couple of weeks ago that they were just increasing the price. So, that's it for me watching bicycling, I guess. It's been nice while it lasted, then corporate greed took over.
