like, "i know this is possible, so let's do it"
the argument for equipping houses with their own energy storage is pretty persuasive I must say
having enough spare power generating capacity in the grid just so you can meet the demand when everyone turns their kettles on during the advert break of some soap opera watched by millions, it's crazy

my dad did some of the civil engineering stuff on some pumped storage system when I was a kid and he was explaining this to me, use spare power in the grid to pump water uphill, then let it run back downhill and generate the extra watts when they're needed

and even then I remember thinking "that seems like a pretty hamfisted way of solving that problem"

heh yeah from what i've been reading lately it's hugely wasteful

ok after using itunes on my work laptop i really wish i had an ssd at home ;(
do you not? yeah they're great
i have a cheap magnetic disc in this machine and I'm always shocked when I use the one upstairs how blazingly quick it is
red chamber dream
i have a fusion drive in this imac which is nice for the stuff that does make it onto the ssd, but my music has always been on hd
i bet itunes is really badly optimised too
red chamber dream

which is 100% purely itunes fault, I changed absolutely no setting and did nothing to cause it like all the apple fanboys hound me over. "oh you must've changed the media folder setting cause ur a pc dumbtard" etc etc

its like fuck you, I had itunes playing music one day, closed it, next week opened it and everything was gone.

I knew it was hopeless but itunes support pretty much said "well you can redownload all your purchases!"

and I'm like damn right ill be redownloading my "purchases" but certainly not from your store
red chamber dream
true, but i don't buy music from itunes lol
