As someone just getting started with their twenties, I don't believe it's already over for me. And because I refuse to believe it, I continue to fight, one day at a time, until I eventually disprove the claim "it's over after 20."

I was absolutely miserable during my teen years, never fit in with my peers since i wasn't too keen on drinking (yes, i am from europe, drinking at 16 is the norm), along with my quarrel with my gender and sexuality (i didn't fully realise until quite recently, still ongoing)

And in the last few years, it has been slowly going up. Of course there were setbacks, failures, hurdles with no end. But dsspite that, I kept going, mostly because of momentum. And now I am considerably better than even just 2 years ago.

It gets better. You just have to be around to see it for yourself.

the pi 5 lacks hardware transcoding. pi 4 could do it, but it was deprecated by jellyfin.

maybe consider picking up a (used) mini pc instead.

It also says "DE" next to the logo, so yeah.

I'm sorry, since when was being a nazi in public in any way tolerable? We aren't talking about "I don't like cereal" here, the nazis were arguably one of the darkest times of our history. Trying to revive it is absolutely not acceptable.

From a grid stability point, you can't produce more than is used, else you get higher frequencies and/or voltages until the automatics shut down. It's already a somewhat frequent occurence in germany for the grid operator to shut down big solar plants during peak hours because they produce way more power than they can dump (because of low demand or the infrastructure limiting transfer to somewhere else)

Negative prices are the grid operator encouraging more demand so it can balance out the increased production.

Yes, but why would you want to? We have enough addresses for the foreseeable future.

A very literal translation of me_irl. Most memes are just regular english memes, literally translated without any regard for gramatical correctness.

It was initially presented as the all-problem-solver, mainly by the media. And tbf, it was decently competent in certain fields.
