hahaha I’m not worried are you worried?

Touch my boats, Russia. I fucking DARE you.

Well just to be clear: I’m absolutely NOT shitting on them for doing this, particularly in this geopolitical context. That was my original point, as a matter of fact.

For them? No. For the region and the world overall, because carbon doesn’t give a shit about national boundaries: absolutely.

We can’t keep thinking in terms of “how does it affect country X”. This is a global problem, and it must be framed as such.

…that’s quite pedantic, tbh. I’d say it’s rather implicit that a wind farm wouldn’t be planned for an area that doesn’t experience strong winds consistently.

Can you name any others?

Though the carbon implications are unfortunate, this is quite frankly an extremely pragmatic and prudent decision in a geopolitical sense. Hopefully they can consider reviving the project once all the bullshit Russia is doing concludes one way or the other, but for now, this definitely seems like the right call. Seriously , this is probably the ONLY legitimate reason I think I’ve ever seen for halting an offshore wind farm.

That’s pretty metal mineral

Remember that China is having a bit of an economic crisis at the moment

Also, maybe the IDF shouldn’t have, you know, drove a fucking Merkava Mk 4 through the main gate of the compound and wrecked the UN base’s physical security? Just a thought.

Gotcha - I thought you meant you had seen some sort of demo/article/whatever with a proof of concept, but I misunderstood.

That sounds neat. Link?

All China wants is the mineral and petroleum reserves in Siberia. They don’t give a fuck about the population centers in western Russia.

Tbh those things are great little thin clients to leave near your couch, despite their age

DAS enclosures are super easy to set up. Disk won’t be a big issue if you go that route.

If you’re planning on running containers, tbh I would not. The required virtualization layer (due to macOS being BSD-based) is going to make containers WAY less efficient. You’re better off with a system you can easily slap proxmox (or whatever distro floats your boat) on.

It’s a rule, obviously

Hey man, I’ve got a hammer, and that process looks a lot like a nail.

kill -9 😎

Evidently, he’ll go to an economic conference aimed at boosting Russia’s flailing, war-sanction-crippled economy, instead of a concurrently-scheduled peace summit aimed at finding solutions to Russia’s expansionist war of aggression in Ukraine.
