When everyone is broken, cold and skint the stomach for a warm meal, electric and war will be thereAt least we showed Putin though stood up to him with all those sanctions, right.
I hate nimbyism but bugger that. I don't want that in my backyard so would not force it in anyone elses either. it risks knackering water tables and within months of trialing it in the UK there were earthquakes. we are where we are though not investing enough in renewables. we could be net zero already in terms of energy generation the tech is already here.
we are not so as a country gonna have to pay the price but I believe with the right investment renewables, and storage can still get us out of this mess. ( nuclear is still needed however at least for now unfortunately you can't knock up a good nuclear power station in a few months.... as shown by hinkley point
also need to uncouple gas from renewable prices as well to really see the benefit of going renewable.... if that means paying a huge premium for what gas we do need so be it if the renewable stuff costs peanuts.... and show that in the breakdown on people's bills so that they can see where the cost of their bill is really coming from
Turn the valve on the meter.How can I turn my gas off coming into the house?
Would a move to a 4 day working week help much?
It would lower demand, but we'd lose some productivity. Although I don't know about you guys, I think I'd be more productive on a 4 day working week if I knew I was getting a 3 day weekend out of the deal!![]()
No I’m not alright Jack. Just SC has increased 20p a day per fuel ish. We are talking about £150 a year. Yesterdays rise has ultimately taken us from £1200 to £3500. Mainly due to unit charges !Standing charges used to be half my bill... and that was using a pc 10hours a day.
they probably still are even.
I'm guessing you don't live alone so "I'm alright jack, fraction of my bill"
So we should have just let putin do whatever he likes right?At least we showed Putin though stood up to him with all those sanctions, right.
I thought we were?So we should have just let putin do whatever he likes right?
Too lazy to reboot it all the time lol.I always turn my pc off when not in use. It was wasting electricity and money, even when it was cheap.
It amazes me some people don't.
For my older games and indie titles, I do play them on the steam deck. Plugged into the 28" monitor via the JSAUX dock, everything plays great at 1080, 1440. Modern AAA titles at that res won't play well, but I don't play them anyway. The reason I moved to playing on the deck wasn't due to electricity costs on the main PC though, but because the steam deck is so quiet.Too lazy to reboot it all the time lol.
I imagine gaming on a steam deck will be far more energy efficient than a pc now
I am curious those who decided to hate Labour for life from 1979, if will forgive Tories for this assuming Truss does nothing or very little.Think the government will get scared. They don't care for the poor but as businesses and their core votes lose more and more they will have to act.
If they do not they will be unelectable for multiple terms.
If it gets as bad as it could (no more help) people will be wanting truss' head on a stick.
And I mean literally. People will be losing family to this. It doesn't get more serious.
Most of the time people forget past government ills. But this? I think this could haunt the tories for years and years.
Yep boots quicker than normal boot here, and shut down in 2-3 seconds.Hibernate is pretty quick to wake up if you have a decent system. Attached USB drives do slow it down though as it has to wake them up.
think we should go further against Putins friendship group - china/IndiaSo we should have just let putin do whatever he likes right?
No I’m not alright Jack. Just SC has increased 20p a day per fuel ish. We are talking about £150 a year. Yesterdays rise has ultimately taken us from £1200 to £3500. Mainly due to unit charges !
Standing charge is not the main issue and I don’t understand why people go on about it so much.
Then you're post above could you're last one until you're able to pay you're bills in order to switch on the electricity again to be able to turn you're pc on to reply to this post lolso what happens if you dont pay the bills ?
