Practice makes perfect, but this better viewed as steps to cutting them out of our lives and not just nudging them to stop supporting facism, destroying workers and our planet.

The need us. We don’t need them.

Listen, I’m highly critical of the CCP, but LLMs aren’t facts machines, they are make text like what they are trained on machines.

They have no grasp of truth, and we can only get some sense of truth of what the average collective text response of its dataset (at best!).

It’s really an extension of “Would some really do that? Just lie on the Internet?” But now “Would AI, which is built to create content like what people post on the Internet, really just lie?”

For facist exceptions are the point. If you can curry favor you can get exceptions.

“You got to go and join the union. No one else can do it for you.”

For facist expectations are the point

Is there are particular GreenPak device hobbiest can use? They look interesting personally

Honestly the micro inverter on a small circuit level seems like an interesting middle to me. So I can have the ac outlets here and there, but just for non DC appliances.

Reducing the money spent on DC-AC conversion is my main thoughts. If my power generated is all DC, my battery storage is all DC, my servers are DC, my lights, and water pumps can be DC, my car is DC, then switching from AC to just switch back to DC 20-40 feet just doesn’t make sense to me.

I would like to actually find a better formula then the napkin math I’ve done to say when it does and doesn’t have benefit.

Really want to get my hands on a Open compute Rack for my next server build and have the UPS and power rail be all 48v too (as per spec). Again why have another component to possibly fail and use power if I don’t need it.

Baked in would be nicer. It would kind of cool for any landing page just kind of working to get you into the threadiverse. If I keep going to nomoreuserlemmy.org (or whatever fake one you want) it just redirects on the backend for me when I log in to an instance that actually works for me.

PD’s default comms voltage is 5v at the moment too.

I’m for moving up the default voltage, but that is naive take for me. It just sounds right I have no idea the actual pros and cons on that low of level if that messes with components and what insulations to expect etc

Because you could design all of those feature in analog, and make custom boards for every change or have one board you update every few years based on supply, cost, and maybe power performance, but make and adjust features on a minute by minute basis if want to.

The driver, power source, etc can all be more easily separated from the logic too. It could be tiny, or massive. Same software, same controller.

Personally, a remnant of that. Being able to use standard lead acid batteries is a perk, but primarily I find that that voltage range of < 20-50>vdc in terms of equipment is in those 12v increments too. With the powedelivery (PD) extended power range (epr) going up to 48v right now, and the fixed voltages in that spec being multiples of 12 again matching the industry it is now.

With adjustable voltage supplies (AVS) it might matter less (because it can increment in 100mv instead of a couple fixed voltages) but I haven’t messed with that yet myself

I am a big grid fan too. The hope that HVDC ca,n mean longer time with solar on the grid, and more averaged wind power.

Smarter grid ties is definitely something that I would like to see as well, including battery usage. The infrastructurea though isn’t just a potential reduction in wattage needed to be supported in the last mile, but not needing infrastructure at all dedicated to a power plant. Again pro renewables, solar, wind, hydro. Wind and hydro benefit from scale quite a bit, and I don’t think roof top solar alone will cover industrial power usage, so I expect we will have some grid scale plants, but in addition to microgeneration.

Actual book burning is the scientific data and articles being purged and saved (for now) by the Internet archive

Can they even argue they following washed version of “do the right thing”

Now these closed meetings happen at MaraLargo

Agreed. I maybe a radical DC home evangelist but yeah AC has its place still and it being THE standard for home appliances is a good example of the powers of scale.

So far for my home usage I’m standardizing on 48vdc because that is the last multiple of 12 before you go above OSHAs low voltage regs.

From there I really want to standardize further on the power delivery spec, because I just love the idea of smart grid for my home. I can then have dispered batteries in my home for either the primary benefits of that device is portable but doesn’t always need to be (laptop, power tool batteries, little robot thing, car, etc) or as a way to reduce some crazy limited time power draw (like servers starting up, oven running for an hour a day, etc).

From there maybe just Microadapter for a few standard circuits so the outlets work the same.

Both.

The reduction of infrastructure and leveraging existing buildings without reducing their existing utility vs converting a new space to be a dedicated power plant plus the infrastructure to move power from less populus (normal case because the cost of populus land is high due to demand) to more populus space.

I also idealogically support it because it makes more controllable by people and less controlled by an outside entity (a corporation/state).

Transformers, power lines, roads, trucks, and maintenance teams to move from large scale plants to houses also doesn’t grow on trees, but if maintenance in remote places doesn’t happen it can burn a lot of them.

Sometimes large scale plants make sense, but as the back up too microgeneration where the costs of infrastructure to move from unpopulated to populus areas make sense.

I am also a fan of less inverted power in microgeneration though. More and more of power usage is DC anyways. The need to convert to AC as much IMHO, but that is my far more radical take
