Where are all the Tankies saying China is ideal society?

Fence, Fuck fuck FUCCCCK!!!

Idk about bandaid, but my glove has small metal mesh that makes it touch compatible.

Very well done piece. A lot of people have said things about the problem. What caught my eye she’s latina running an English channel, so I appreciate not trying to pronounce Latin names the English way, but sticking to the correct pronunciations.

Anyway I feel the outrage, but I’m not in americas, so I don’t know what I can do other than share it with my friends in americas.

Updoot for nepali

Sometimes I wonder if my instance will defederate from lemmygrad, I have hope.

You’d love singapore’s name for the toilet to tap, it’s call NEWWater.

Why is this funny, why am I laughing

I like it, i for int easy to remember. I also use i, j, k as u it vectors and remember at what depth of a multidimentional array in working at.

Do you have a link, is it still active?

I see wired and my immidiate thought is, whatever the article is, it’s not worth it.

I mean i get your argument, but super-critical plants can only serve baseload, they need 48 hours to prime and can generally not operate below 50% capacity, they do yield very high efficiency though.

But I’m not sure where this discussion is going.

Coal power can’t really be used for on-demand scenarios, as coal fired power plants have massive startup costs and also time. Compared to a gas-turbine that can do a cold boot up to maximum production in 15 minutes. Coal needs about 4-5 hours to come to full power and that is with the best expensive technology we have not necessarily technology that is in use. Also coal plants take about 2 hours to shutdown and about 20 hours to be ready to be fired again. It’s just a limitation that we can’t overcome from complications due to coal being a solid fuel.

So whatever coal China has it must be using for baseload, they must have more alternatives if their coal fired capacity is decreasing.

EDIT: adding more context, so I have been hearing this coal as peak load instrument for a while now, so I decided to dig deeper on who is claiming this and why? So there are two claims in this space out there 1st being that for larger plants that can operate at sub 20% capacity can scale between sub20% to 100% in minutes making them useful for peak load, and that is just stupid argument as whatever minimum they are running it is still baseload.

Other argument is actual redisgn of plants that allow for quick cycling, but technology is new and they can cycle even 4x in a day, but they operate at relatively less efficiency and also since they don’t ever go cold they start plants semi hot, they can’t clean the boiler with forced draft, leading to increased maintenance cost during full cleanup shutdown significantly and also they deal with thermal stress a lot more leading to increased cost of wear and tear. Seems like only CGS has been able to operate using this model and their gen capacity is only 480mW so seems like a proof of concept idea than actual possi ility of turning coal into peak load.

But at least it looks possible with some research, contrary to my previous opinion that it’s not possible at all, but seems to be still years before it can reach baseload efficiency and last thing we want to do is run coal at worse efficiency.

No the archaeological survey result just mean it’s inconclusive whether the situation is exactly same or not. No evidence doesn’t necessarily mean it didn’t happen, it just that we don’t know for sure if it happebd or not.

In case of Hagia Sophia, the structure was kept more or less the same, with some features added to make it a mosque. Mosque that was built at the place article is talking about completely razed previous structure (verified by archaeological survey of India) that was built at believed birthplace for one of the more prominent deity and a new mosque was later torn down by crowds in 1992.

Supreme court in India around 2019 decided that since this site holds a lot more significance for one religion than other (no real religion wide belief for location) the land in question would be allocated to Hindus while another location would be allocated to Muslims to reconstruct the mosque.

Not claiming anything about Modi, just trying to present unbiased facts.

I wonder who’s downvoting this

Shameless plug for Mull here too, i use both fennec and mull.

I never found an option in sync either. Not claiming it never had, just I never saw it.

First you commented from McDonaldIsHealthy@lemmus.org and then deleted it. And commented same thing from another account

I don’t think it’s prefer one over the other. For India world is not binary. There is a reason it’s called third world country, Russian partnership doesn’t meant distance from West and western partnership doesn’t mean distance from Russia. India doesn’t have the luxury to pick sides. It has to keep engaging all global partners.
