Soo, then why did you characterize the solar power as being inadequate for propulsion? That is a meaningless thing to point out - given how the solar is not intended for propulsion. What was your original point?

    Except it does.

    This power helps run the ship’s operations, lowering fuel use and making the ship more energy efficient.

    This is textbook peak shaving. Not to mention the engineering feat of integrating solar with LNG for this cargo application.

    Hopping into the comments to decry the ship for not doing full propulsion via solar just shows your ignorance. It's like complaining about a hammer for not being able to screw in a fastener.

    Why do y'all get so bruised when extremely valid critiques are leveled against the democrats?

    blame democrats for everything republicans do

    Uh, Joe Biden was not a republican. Neither was Obama. And it should be clear the Democrat senators are also not Republicans...

    Lamo to be spouting constitutionalist hopium at this stage of the descent.

    These [rights] are explicitly given by the Constitution and cannot be taken away.

    Then explain how they took away Alex Pretti's rights. Political power does not come from a Constitution; it comes from the barrel of a gun.

    Also keep in mind your constitution is the only one I know of that explicitly enshrines the right to enslave people.

    Joe Biden spent a record amount on ICE camps while the threat of fascism was obviously clear.

    Obama not only discovered Homan, but awarded him with a medal when Homan devised a plan to separate migrant children from their parents at detention centers.

    Every single dem senator voted to confirm Marco Rubio, who has obviously been one of the biggest champions of "immigration enforcement.

    They're not entirely wrong when they say the Democrats gave them a mandate.

    I do agree that this is very rare take from climate activists. Those folks usually know their shit and are pretty radical.

    However, this line of reasoning is definitely a thing among laypersons. It has historical precedent that has its roots in Malthusian population theory.

    These stats capture 1 year of torrenting on a TrueNas scale machine I built as soon as fiber showed up on my street. It was my first ever proper rack mount server. I use this machine primarily for torrenting and jellyfin transcoding via an RTX 2080. The plan is to soon set it up for navidrome. Machine sits around 230 watts. Feel free to offer TrueNas scale tips.

     

    Norway’s sovereign wealth fund will exclude U.S. machinery manufacturer Caterpillar and five Israeli banks from its equity portfolio over what it called an “unacceptable risk” that the firms contribute to rights violations. The ethics committee for Norges Bank Investment Management found that the former produced bulldozers that were being used in the “unlawful destruction of Palestinian property,” while the banks had provided financial services necessary for the construction of Israeli settlements in the West Bank. Facing political and public scrutiny, NBIM has said it will not withdraw from all its investments in Israeli firms but review its portfolio to ensure it complies with its ethics mandate.

     

    On my truenas scale machine, I have a container for gluetun and one for qbittorrent (among others). Maybe a couple times a week, I notice that the VPN connection gets flakey. Qbittorrent speeds go down into the kb/s range. This promps me to carry out an annoying, manual process:

    1. I pause all torrents in qbittorrent webui
    2. I stop both the qbit and gluetun containers
    3. I start the gluetun container
    4. I give the gluetun container adequate time to connect (since the qbit container depends on the gluetun network, attempting to start both at the same time yields an error on the qbit side)
    5. I start the qbit container
    6. I resume all torrents in the qbittorrent webui

    Is there any easy way to automate this process? Preferably one that doesn't require me to learn ansible? I'm hoping the solution could all be done via portainer - which I use.

    Thank you in advance.
