Nothing like using someone’s own comment structure to correct their correction. All in good fun though.

You’re thinking of Wireshark. WireGuard is a VPN.

Sadly no hardware AV1 decode though. Though it can apparently decode AV1 in software up to 1080p.

There is of course the supposed capitalistic reason of doing so, which is to make it more lucrative for others to build additional homes. Additional homes should in turn dampen the prices again. This however hasn’t been panning out the last few decades, as the prices have kept inflating.

What a beautiful image! It reminds me of my childhood, when I used to play outside with my friends until the street lights turned on. We would ride our bikes, play hide and seek, or kick a ball around. Those were the days of innocence and joy.

Yes, Firefox would also be a great alternative. Chromium itself, on which kiwi is based, is a open source webbrowser supported by large corporations. As you were already using chrome, kiwi will bring you a more familiar experience.

The underlying blink engine, which these browsers (chromium, kiwi, edge, opera, Samsung, etc) use, has a combined market share of over 70%(over 80% on desktop). This can be both a positive or a negative. For you the user, it ensures compatibility. Every website with any kind of active development, will run in your browser, as who would ignore over 70% of the market?

Though while it is open source, having one engine this big, and being mostly backed by large corporations, will possibly bring issues similar to the internet explorer days of old. A stagnating non open standardized web. This makes our support for alternatives a possible necessity to ensure a open and free web.

Firefox is a great alternative, though of course with its own quirks. Being on the smaller side, though rare, means website support isn’t always there, so that would be something you’d have to be able to deal with. I would definitely try the browser yourself and see if it fits the purpose you seek.

Kiwi would be a possible alternative. It’s a Chromium based webbrowser that supports dark mode websites natively. As if that wasn’t enough it also supports extensions. You can simply install those from the Chromium webstore. So if its native dark mode implementation isn’t to your liking, you could use one of your preferred extensions. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kiwibrowser.browser

Going by their estimate of 36.000 households and the Dutch average yearly household usage of 3.500KWh that would be 126.000 MWh per year. One turbine is rated for a continuous output of 16MW which assuming it runs continuously, would give you 16x24x365= 140.160 MWh in a year.

I would assume they actually mean 36.000 households yearly assuming average weather conditions.

For households it depends on your contract with the energy companies. There are certain contracts which let you pay a fixed fee on top of market prices, but you’ll move with hour by hour fluctuations of the market prices. This might be interesting for those with smart homes who can schedule many of the more energy intensive appliances to run when prices are at expected daily lows. Or because you generally dont use much power in the expensive moments for your region.

These contracts however also remove most of the protection you enjoy from price spikes due to technical failures in the grid, or errors in weather prediction for renewables.

Well technically… https://youtu.be/jyQwgBAaBag

Shouldn’t window’s compatibility mode solve most of those?
