I miss forum culture so bad.
You would hop between communities without being visible to the community you used to exist in
Social media is like the forum's retarded stepchild
So I went onto a freethinker, primarily ancap/minarchist forum, and all of my arguments got strengthened or (more often) destroyed
So I rebuilt from scratch
i assume Discord is half forum and half social media
Have you ever heard of this source?
Lazard for energy cost comparisons?
They pretty much report that solar and wind (utility scale) are basically cheaper than everything but gas.
Discord is like the old forum system, but it's too centralized re: hosting
*new construction
Discord also doesn't let users start threads or order threads by most recent reply. It's really very different.
@Salacious Swanky Cat no I haven't seen that one. I'll look it over, thanks.
VBulliten forums, miss those days
Pbnation.com <3
Yeah. It’s interesting to look at. It isn’t a perfect comparison though. @uncephalized
yeah very different from a forum
forums are great for archiving information as well as real-time discussion
how so?
Some of them don’t have the indentations.
So it gets weird to me.
It’s mostly from unfamiliarity
There is a pretty broad variety of forum builds, some of them are more readable than others.
I’ve only joined one forum ever and that was recently for electric cars
my favorite forum is social.technet.com
NOT
Don’t know what that is
Lol
I’m a super boomer. Forums are weird to me.
microsoft's forum for support
it's atrocious
As much as I like running Windows as my primary OS I can concur that Microsoft's Forums tend to be ass.
Hehe FondestAlloy is hanging out in voice chat waiting for someone to debate...
He's been there all day
😂
Maybe we should call his family, ask them to check in on him or something
One of you college boys check on him.

*"I think he means 'and you mock me' in a more general sense implying that I am guilty of the same word-salad essays I sometimes make fun of him for."*
No, for saying I don't know what I'm talking about. 🤣
I don't have the essay on line. It's burried somewhere in my laptop.
Solar's intisl costs are high*er* than some options, but the costs come down rapidly; My folks solar paid itself off in 5 years. Since this involves for-profit purposes, the ROI should pay itself off in one year... As ehem, *YOU* pointed out (*"solar works fine"*).
Still irrelevant, unless you propose to build a slot racers track at 1:1 scale. 🤣
In both considerations, we bottle it and ship it either by truck, rail, or pipeline. (And you call me an *"unsympathetic debator."* 🤣)
A tax break isn't taxpayer support. It's an incentive to innovate. 🤣

There are cars already on the road that run on hydrogen, but hey no problem.
I for one give so many negative fucks what *environmentalists* want they couldn't pay the bill in a million years. These are the same sort of people who joined antifa. They can suck my cock. 👿
No, my only motivation is stopping the damage from getting worse, and that means environmental and economic. Hydrogen has net zero damage and reduces economic effects;
***IIRC*** (and I know I'm off but bear with me), right now it costs 25¢ per loaf of bread to move it from a warehouse to a store. By using a source costing 4¢ per mile versus 12¢ per mile, that reduces the *final mile* price respectively, and that savings amplifies the more points along the line it's applied. Reducing the farmer's yearly fuel prices from $2,ØØØ to even $1,5ØØ means he sells wheat at the lower cost.
