I low key believe gen Z would be better than millennials and gen X (age excluded here). They like going to the gym and eating well so they would be better shape than the crop from 10+ years ago and they would enjoy the training. They all got social anxiety and don’t know how to act in public which means they would enjoy being told what to do all the time. They got a headstart by playing shooter games for 18 years. They will be good all the lingo and codes because it would just be a new form of memes for them. They all about maxxing this shit and maxxing that shit and self help so when their dopamine and hormones levels drop from their social media shit to war levels that will be an improvement for them so they will like it. There is no sense of community anywhere so the army will be the closest thing that have so any natural form of life.

What a shit sandwich

Sounds like 23andme did you a solid.

You have a lot of reasons to by them and it’s absolutely a good purchase. A man needs shoes so get them.

It’s not a treat in anyway, but “treat” yourself and enjoy the purchase without concern. I’ve spent that much on beer in a night and forgotten it because I was pissed. Don’t feel bad about this.

It’s going to be like a credit score soon.

I’ll just set up my government backed tiktok and like some videos about how Palestine Genocide is Antisemitic bullshit, how Israeli is great, how great paid medical care is and then I can travel to America. Got to give them my non voluntary, voluntary tip for entry though, only 20% of flight cost (but they will give me a dirty look for it being so low).

I’ll be interested to see what happens with this.

New forms of industry will work out if you got very low capital costs and high energy costs. The factory is going to be running, what? At most 25% of the year? Probably more like under 10 and unpredictable. That’s going to be so weird for profitability.

I feel like storing the hydrogen itself could be an issue. Storing methane seems way easier so I wonder if that happens instead. But is it cheap to make a device that can make huge amount of hydrogen or methane? I have no idea and no one seems to know what’s going to happen yet.

I just expect most of it to be dumped. Because it’s 1 less thing to buy.

Just to be clear this can’t be solved with storage. Currently it can be but not permanently.

For ease of argument let’s say the grid runs 100% on solar with batteries that last a day. For 100% solar you need to build power for when demand is highest, winter, and supply is lowest also winter. Come summer demand is lowest and supply is highest. You can’t store all that energy in summer because you got fuck all to do with it.

It’s a really weird cost saving exercise but basically when supply is massively abundant it has to be wasted. No one is going to build that final battery that is only used for 1 day every 10 years.

Bringing it all together. In a 100% renewables grid with solar, wind, hydro and batteries a lot of electricity will be wasted and it will be the cheapest way to do it. Cheaper than now.

Quite a few people talk about this on youtube. Tony Seba and rethinkx is the best place to start in my opinion.
