I get the sentiment but… When sun isn’t shining the negative prices cause problem for baseline power producers who need to turn off their power plants to avoid the zero to negative power prices.

This causes the power prices to become volatile, since the investments for the power plants that run during the night need to be covered during the night only.

Eventually though the higher price volatility will encourage investments into either demand side adjustability or energy storage systems. This will play out in energy only markets.

The other alternative is to implement a capacity market, which will divide the cost of the baseline production across different production hours by paying producers more for guaranteed production capacity.

I bought one of their long style bbq lighters and was so angry when it didn’t have a refill port. The thing cost over 10 €, how does it not have a refill port?

Hmm, this must be fake, in Finland it is a truth universally acknowledged that a swedish man in possession of a computer must be in want of another man.

I imagine yes, as its the same protocol, same pins etc. USB C comes with extras, but I figure they are just not connected.

In Finland there is a party whose social feed was full of line items from the national budget they thought worth eliminating.

Full size apple trees get big, I have some on my property that are over 5m tall. There are small varieties that stay under 3m though.

I don’t think the above poster doubts their ability, only that they might be less incentivized to do so compared to, say a country that has repeatedly voiced their wish to annex Canada.

Ah, the gentleman’s fuck around and find out.

I think Picard is no stranger to speaking softly and carrying a big stick

Except with the borg.

Using base 2 you can count to 1024 without using finger segments.

My experience with country level regulation suggests yes. Usually this sort of thing is targeted at protecting domestic firms from other EU firms. There is always some good sounding reason to do it.

In this case I don’t mind at all.

Ah, well that settles it for me. Thanks for linking the article!

While understandable, I really want to know what the people of Greenland think.

I don’t remember the last time I actually LOL’d at a comment. Thanks!

This is a big foreign policy and legal question for Finland: what can be done about this sort of activity under maritime law.

I was even more surprised when I found out Lwaxana and the enterprise computer had the same actress.

Objective cronological order or subjective? If subjective whose?
