Reply to Survey on 12,000 secondary school-aged students (12-18Y) shows that although many adolescents are spending considerable time gaming (at least 3.5hours/day),it is not having a negative impact on the wellbeing and 44% of ‘heavy’ gamers reported higher wellbeing than those who play less or don’t play by giuliomagnifico

A lot of modern gaming is social, that's what is attractive to Zoomers. Socializing is good for people, especially if you are only having to deal with some random asshat for one match. Its much easier to be yourself online when you get to choose what you share to people. Hanging out with friends, just vibing is totally good for you if that's difficult to do irl

Reply to eli5: how long would power stay on if the power company abandoned their post? by larsattacks94

Common Solar panels lose efficiency at ~1% annually if I recall correctly. You'd need to replace them in the long term, and possibly find a better source of energy production like hydro and wind. Obviously that's nothing if you're powering just for yourself, and who's to say they won't last 80+ years with minimal wear. Just sharing a small thought about solar in a world where you can't produce more of them

Reply to Aeromine says they have solved many of the problems that have long made domestic rooftop wind power compare poorly to solar panels. They claim their "motionless" rooftop wind generators deliver up to 50% more energy than a solar array of the same price while taking up just 10% of the roof space. by lughnasadh

Waiting on the hybrid for maximum efficiency 🧠 Also interested in using the heat to boil a fluid to rotate yet another engine 🧠🧠 Someone must put me on the creators board of big energy, if you're going to rob investors atleast make it sound cool
