Suppose someone was on the fence here, and willing to hear you out instead of believing OP.
Because, as I said, while I agree with most of what you said, you’re doing a big disservice to spreading your message.

I understand very well the implications of the negative price, which is why I advocated NOT to spend trillions in nuclear, when issues of balancing demand and production can be solved for a fraction of what nuclear costs.
I agree with most of what you’re saying, but the way you’re presenting it is almost confrontational.
True, self-diagnostic in a strict sense isn’t a thing, but as you point out after, a collection of symptoms can speak to one’s experience. Finding this insight, in my case, was an eye opening moment because so many things in my past and in my day to day suddenly started to make sense.
Coming to terms with this realization is especially useful for people who have strong negative views on mental health issues, and driving people to “self-diagnostic”, as in recognizing that they may be neuro divergent, is a worthy effort.
It doesn’t replace actual professional help and diagnosis, but it’s a first step that needs to be encouraged.
This.
Also, tie together more countries’ power grids to even out production and demand of renewables, and reduce the need for other backup sources.
For a fraction of the cost of nuclear, increase the storage capacity as well. We’ve had days where the price per MWh was negative in many hours, because of excess production.
The barriers to carbon free energy aren’t technical, they’re purely political.
So the innovation that was patented is literally “cut it partway through”.
Patents are inherently stupid and only serve to stifle progress. Change my mind or otherwise just downvote away, works as well.
People here be discussing the wrong thing, or am I the only one thinking that patenting a roll of paper is incredibly stupid?
It’s a damn roll of paper. How much of a genius do you have to be to come up with that? People have been doing it for millennia, the only difference is that it used to be so expensive that no one would think of whipping their butts with it.
This shit is like tobacco. We all know it’s fucking awful and makes no sense, but some assholes insist.
So treat it the same way: massive taxes (upon purchase, but also yearly), banned in many public places (underground parking, city centers, …) and there you go.
I like my A sheets, but no paper format is good on screen, it’s a whole different medium.
Data privacy AND not having to deal with more bullshit AI? Oh my, how will we ever cope with this… /s
If not frien why frien shape?
This is what they want you to believe…
You should consider sailing it instead, I’ve heard boats are actually decent at that.
That’s kinda like saying “I got the better kind of herpes!”
TIL. Ty stranger!
All of which require you to get a licence to drive lorries. Your point?
They cannot.
EU safety rules specifically forbid sharp edges (kudos to the visionary who thought about including that one…).
Additionally, it’s weight is absolutely ridiculous, to the point that you cannot drive it with a standard B licence (you need at least C1, which requires specific classes and written + driving exams).
Not to mention, many streets simply cannot accommodate a car so large, and there’s zero parking space for such a monstrosity in most city centers…
Edit: actually I’m not sure if Iceland included these specific EU rules, so maybe they can actually sell it there?..
I’m picking up this book on account of that sentence alone. Thank you!
I was so disappointed this one wasn’t in OP’s post, it’s amazing!
Maybe this invention revolutionised how we clean our butts, or maybe it was utterly trivial and 20 different ways of cutting paper rolls were patented that same year (note that present day rolls don’t even use this method).
But that’s irrelevant to the point that seems to be implied here that patents somehow contributed to it’s success. They don’t, an invention will be useful or not based on its own merits, not on the fact they’re patented.
They exist to ensure whoever registered it makes a profit, which is why they’re being exploited way past the point of making up for any good they were supposed to bring…
