What’s also interesting is that you have to factor in the costs and CO2 emissions of the fuel source and it’s delivery method. A new building code for a county in my area was adopted which requires calculations for energy efficient HVAC systems and also CO2 emissions with those systems. Surprisingly, natural gas has less CO2 emissions associated with it, while electricity is 2.86 times as much. This is because grid electricity is mostly produced by fossil fuels, then needs to be delivered to the site but there are many losses along the way. So even if the all electric equipment is twice as efficient as the equivalent natural gas equipment, it still contributes more CO2 production. This is part of the issue with phasing out natural gas and moving to all electric in its current state. But with that is the push (and requirements) to produce energy on site and shift towards net zero energy for commercial sites, which is definitely better than using grid power from an emissions standpoint.

Please yes please I cannot wait!!

Honestly I agree. I think it’s a great game though, at least what it has become, but I think I keep getting disappointed with certain things that are just an issue with the core mechanics of the game. There’s only so much value to adding tons of content if the game is dull at its core.

I have over 350 hours in NMS but every time I try to pick it back up I realize why I stopped before.

Did you pay by yearly subscription? Might just be you already paid for the next several months until it expires, and just won’t renew the next billing cycle.

Otherwise that sounds like a bug that benefits you haha

It’s honestly crazy how poorly this whole thing is being handled. Reddit admins are really showing their true colors and keep doubling down on everything, making themselves look like absolute fools. They realized they don’t have as much power as they wanted and are acting like grumpy children throwing a temper tantrum

This is actually hilarious and I love the creativity and malicious compliance here. It’s also a shame the admins response to this whole thing. They’re trying to claim that this whole thing is just a small group of moderates power tripping when in reality many of the subs held polls to go dark or continue protests. Before this all went down I saw a ton of people saying they should go dark indefinitely in many many subreddits.

Huffman is full of lies and bullshit and that’s the real reason people have so much backlash at this point

Lol, it’s like Spez is trying to act like Elon Musk at this point…

What’s crazy to me is it seems like they just want children to suffer. They want to force women to give birth, but then don’t give a shit about what happens to the children after. On top of that, it’s like they are trying to make them suffer even more for their parents being unable to provide.

I could somewhat get attacking programs for adults. Still disagree, but I guess it’s the “they should be able to provide for themselves” mentality. But then doing this for children when they are literally unable to provide for themselves or have any responsibility for being hungry. Yes, let’s make the helpless children suffer.

Disgusting times we live in.

This has already been affecting me a bit. Now I’m not complaining because I fully support it. But I’ve recently been looking up product suggestions, tech help, etc and many of the reddit links in the search results were private communities. I was like “oh so this is actually having an impact at least.”

I actually wish more subs would stay dark, especially since the CEO was basically like “they’ll get over it soon”

I literally don’t get it either. “BuT It lEtS me DOwNlOaD iT iN AdVanCE” but like are you really that impatient you need it the second it’s released? And before seeing if it’s actually a good game or not?? It’s like people have learned nothing from the constant shitty releases time and time again
