Holy shit this is incredible. I have wanted a way to permanently hide shorts forever, thanks for sharing. Also it’s actually recommended by Mozilla which means it has active security audits on it, impressive.

Good point, it’ll be good to see their public revenue sheets when they reach that point, 500 mil seems like a lot for the site but it is global so maybe there’s more cash flow outside the US.

And we used to have to manually write the hexadecimal values of colors in arrays by hand to generate them. Uphill, both ways.

You angered a few of the rugrats with that comment. LoL j/k xD :O ;-/

I have stopped contacting family members because the constant emoji spam kills all desire to have a conversation with them. Feels like empty meaningless chatter.

It almost feels like talking to a child when I see emoji spam from people. Emojis are just cheap, which makes them way less valuable by definition and added visual noise distracts from the point.

This sums it up. It’s meaningless noise. I wish there were a stable way of removing all emojis from a page via browser extension. Chrome’s kinda broke youtube comments, filtering out comments that didn’t have emojis, haven’t looked for a firefox replacement yet.

Solar’s lack of moving parts is something people overlook, too. Hail storms supposedly rarely damage them, and if they do, you can just replace individual panels.

It depends, $180/mo for 25 years is the agreement and it’s directly connected to the grid both ways which required additional work from the power company to inspect and approve. I think given the projections it was rated for about 25,000 kWh per year * 25 years (approaching 85% efficiency after 30 years), which is a good amount of total production for my needs. Edit: it’s worth considering what $180/mo will look like in 5 to 20 years… it will probably be significantly cheaper compared to other power sources because it’s generated locally.

I just installed a 9.3 kW system with individual microinverters under each panel for grid stability and it is absolutely amazing how much you can power all day without threatening a massive bill at the end of the month. I still import power at night, but the power companies usually have agreements where you get credits for all wattage exported to the grid to cover your imported power at night, because both parties win in that contract.
