What works for Europe does not always work when scaled to US proportions..

Eagler

Exactly. There's that whole "massive manufacturing base", and 350,000,000 inhabitants thing. Not to mention states bigger than a lot of nations.


People who wish to be like Europe should move there, and mind their own business.

Technical Support / Server to download Map's
« Last post by Molsman on Yesterday at 09:42:41 PM »
I was just curious,,, Every time I try to download a new terrain it will take me multiple time's to complete the download due to the server freezing, and i have to come back and resume, My Internet is very capable of handling these downloads and I never had this issue in the past,,, my PC is directly linked to my router so no wife or hot spot issues ,,,, Just curious if anyone else has came across this issue ,, just for kicks this is my current dxdiag file not sure if my issue would show up


Thanks
Molsman

I'd be willing to throw back some disrespect if only it wasn't a violation of the rules on this forum. "Some people" seem to get away with it ad infinitum. I get dinged just about every time.

They're not worth it. And you ain't alone.

Trying to avoid being political but some people here make it really difficult. They make being respectful even harder. Maybe their posts will be flagged accordingly. They won't learn but maybe they'll be silent a while.

It's a herculean effort. And don't hold your breath.

Are there any European countries where solar and wind make up a large percentage of their electric?

Yes — several European countries generate a large share of their electricity from solar and wind, often among the highest in the world. Below are the standout examples, with rough, order-of-magnitude shares (they fluctuate year to year based on weather).

Denmark — the global leader
Wind: ~55–60% of electricity
Solar: ~5–7%
Combined: ~60–65%


Portugal — wind + solar + hydro
Wind: ~25–30%
Solar: ~10–15% (rapidly growing)
Combined: ~35–45%

Spain — strong and balanced
Wind: ~23–27%
Solar: ~12–15%
Combined: ~35–40%

Germany — huge scale, lower percentage
Wind: ~30%
Solar: ~12%
Combined: ~40–45%

Many more.


Please try to get your news for legit sources.  Not media that rely on big oil.  :salute

Stand out examples, AKA best case scenarios. And "dependent on weather".

Thanks for proving the point.

“Cro-Magnon” doesn’t mean a separate species — it refers to the earliest European Homo sapiens (around 40k–10k years ago)."


How did they get the age of these species if they date carbon. How can cell tissue in dinosaur fossils still be found dated millions of years old. Determining rocks, how do you know how much chemical decay occurred unless you know how much it started with, and conditions under which it remained. Two sides of the same coin perhaps.

Hardware and Software / Re: Recent RAM prices . . . incredible

I have a ton of extra 8GB sticks of DDR4 but it is 2400 and 2666 speed, so a bit slower but likely fine for an AH use case.

Many thanks, my friend.  I will keep that in mind, as it would likely be fine.  I'm hoping I'll have one system to build prior to March scenario if I can succeed in my pressure recruiting tactics.  :aok
