And the general store also has bottles of wine costing 10-30 a bottle. I did always chuckle at the bottles of 1972 Petrus in the "fancy wine" section.

I'd have to push back on that somewhat. When I worked there I saw all sorts of people emerging from the flats around the power station. Young familes, young professionals, none of them appeared "wealth obsessed".

In fact, looking at rents on RightMove, it's not out of whack with typical rents for a nice area of London.

Let us not forget this area of London (Nine Elms) was previously a pretty grotty industrial wasteland that you tended not to go to, and the power station itself was at risk of collapse.

I have two and one stopped working, but they were great and sent me a replacement motherboard and a toolkit to swap it over. Did you try reaching out to them?

I bought 32 and wished I got another 6 for the south west aspect of the house ... but still, producing 11mWh a year in the UK on an east/west aspect, electricity bill for the year (even with all cars in the household being EV's) is negative. Battery makes the difference - load shifting is doing the heavy lifting in the winter.

I hope you’re generating more than 11 milliwatt-hours per year, guessing you meant MWh :)

32*250*1400=11,200,000 watt hours, which makes more sense ;)

haha, yes, was typing too fast! MWh indeed.

Also this is why I like dark mode in everything. They're much less noticeable.

discovered penicillin

Tarmac, the breech-loading rifle, the first practicable television system even if it wasn't very good, pneumatic tyres...

Also post war Europe had to rebuild, the US didn't - and lots of scientists headed west.

Library and Archival management systems

Lots of written work pre 1582 that needs to be accurately catalogued.

Source: I used to work on one of the first computerised library management software systems, and plenty of our academic customers had manuscripts dating back that far.

Yep - it's a game changer on the Pendolino trains I get to work as they tilt going around corners. Most people seem to be fine, but for me, it was impossible to get some work done on my commute until vehicle motion cues were a thing and I got > M2 MBP for work.

I thought Mythos was rumored to be around 10tn parameters? Kimi k3 is 2.8tn.
