Nuclear power plants can run many decades at full power with adequate maintenance, even more so newer ones. Can the li-ion batteries though? Note that they'd be under stress each day. Perhaps with new/different battery tech, but that's yet to see how it pans out. As per China and batteries, perhaps, but that's yet to see how it turns out at the end. They also reverted from not building (many) coal power plants and they are increasingly building them again. So, it's complex. Also read "China Targets 180 Gigawatts of Battery Storage by end of 2027" which is far away from minimum required for getting rid of nuclear and coal.

Chinese nuclear power output is 62GW, which means you'd need 12h*62GW for simplistic optimistic night worth of energy. Which is 744GWh. But realistically you have to look at worst case scenario during long winter nights and cloudy days. Which is a lot more storage required and less solar power output. And batteries get degraded over time, some malfunction etc.

We are annoyed only when it happens on our border, but support countries comiting war crimes and genocide otherwise.

It looks like that in Germany everything is a fair game when you are a pig or Palestinian.

I guess it depends on how you look at it - "It needs to be installed separately."

Since nobody mentioned it yet, Pixelfed.

I'd say Forgejo as it is the most simple of the three. If you want more complexity (like CI/CD), then one of the other two. You can checkout Forgejo at codeberg.org.

They would certainly help, but there is more energy demand than just AC during the day.

Modern bikes have the same type of equipment, just with lighter materials. I wonder how much does this one weight.

They fuckedup Ukraine for good, resulting in basically no interceptions anymore at least. But I'm sure the Orange doesn't give a crap about them.

It was Biden, I tell you, everybody says so

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.
