@VeroniqueB99 Good job. I've not gotten anything from them for at least a year. It's definitely possible.

@VeroniqueB99 Most people prefer ease of use over peace of mind. "Amazon has everything so we get everything from Amazon."
Well, flock Jeff Bezos and his ilk. Not a cent from me any more.

@royaards it's a shame. The position that Amazon fills really just fell out of the technology. They adapted to become essentially the Sears Roebuck of their age. If Sears had been a little bit more on their toes it could have been them.
My dad had stories of Sears' abuses when they were King. What goes around comes around.
In either case, we have levers. We have labor and safety laws, federal, state and local. Whoever is King in whatever age must be policed by them.

I canceled my Amazon account in 2022, and haven't bought anything from them since.
Going to set up a rule on my LAN to block Amazon.com, FaceBook.com, X.com, etc.
Just give them no air, and no money!It would help to setup a site that provides alternatives to Amazon, a marketplace where you can buy stuff from non-Amazon sources, one that does not collect a hefty cut from both sides, nor promote needless consumerism.
Buying from FB ads has been very, very unreliable.

"Buying from FB ads" 😱 ... you're asking for it!
"Just give them no air, and no money!" we should try that with dumpf and magas....

Got off FB too, in 2023. No meta, no whatsapp, no instagram, no threads.

What upsets me most about the billionaires from Walmart and Amazon is that their companies continue to make record profits while the salaries for many workers are so low that many of them need food stamps (SNAP) to survive.
I can't understand that a government allows companies to be profitable while not paying a living wage but requiring the government to pay money to the workers.

@royaards how is it sad?
as I understand it, it was a news website that did great work then sold the property to a bilionaire for shitloads of money whereupon people who dont use misinformation all stopped reading it.
nobody died or got hurt. I assume reporting staff who tried to switch careers from news to propaganda in order to stay on the payroll had a weird and unpleasant time of it but we each face normal change and choices in life, not exactly a big deal.
@falcennial @royaards I think that the sad part is that people lost their jobs, in a shit job market no less.

Violent Femmes - We Can Do Anything (2016)
Chi scrive di musica mai avrebbe pensato di poter nuovamente (o per la prima volta, nella stragrande maggioranza dei casi fra cui questo) riprendere in mano la penna per cimentarsi riguardo i Violent Femmes. Il loro silenzio, intervallato da sporadiche apparizioni dal vivo, sembrava di quelli senza via d’uscita. I... https://noblogo.org/available/violent-femmes-we-can-do-anything-2016

@srtcd424 @float13 @mdione indeed, in both safety and ability to scale down photovoltaics are much better than wind turbines
(which is why wind turbines are mostly a power plant level thing, while photovoltaic on the home is often a better choice even in places with more wind than sun)
(also, this is definitely a case of whyNotBoth, each in its own suitable environment)

@mdione @srtcd424 @Mr_GHARice @float13 the smart bit inside the inverter box decides how much energy should be taken by the panels, batteries or grid, and how much energy should go to the house, batteries, or grid
the panels are ok with only providing less energy than they could produce, with no ill effects, because electovoltaics are *magic*; (I assume that there is a bit more heat going around, but still less than what would have been released by the sun hitting a dark-ish roof, so easily dissipated)

Sotto l’asse, i capponi europei crepano
Di questi tempi, gli assi europei sono soprattutto tattiche fragili da crisi esistenziale. Quello italo-tedesco non sfugge alla regola mentre l'Europa dei capponi di Renzo cerca la quadra

@alorenzi magic :D
i pannelli non producono oltre quanto viene richiesto dai carichi
(suppongo ci sia un po' di calore in più da qualche parte, visto che il sole ha colpito la superficie, ma non a sufficienza da causare problemi)

@Mr_GHARice I think you're answering a different question, that of "what happens if the main grid generators go down (f.i., disconnected from the grid) and the solar panel is still connected". My question was "what happens if there is no load", and similarly, "who actually provides the energy if there is load, solar vs grid; and what happens to what is generated but not used". On the grid side it's regulated by generating more or less energy depending on load.

Ma sì, tranquilli: continuiamo tutti a utilizzare Amazon, Twitch, Alexa e i server AWS… poi lamentiamoci che in Europa “non c’è innovazione”Spoiler: le alternative all'altezza dei Big Tech ci sono eccome 👉🇪🇺 https://scegli.app🇪🇺 https://techineurope
