If I could erase any game from my mind and experience it again for the first time, it would be this game. One of my favorites of all time.

Just because it works, doesn’t mean it’s right.
You need to go headless immutable, that’s the key.
I thought things like mirror tests don’t work on cats, because they are such assholes they actively sabotage such experiments. For a time it was even thought cats were very dumb, but later tests have shown them to be actually very smart.
Sure! This is the report: https://unece.org/sites/default/files/2022-04/LCA_3_FINAL March 2022.pdf
It has a description of the methods and the ISO standards they use to determine life-cycle CO2, from the cradle to the grave numbers. It also includes all the references and sources. I’m sure there’s a lot more info available about the research they did, but this is the high-level report.
The UN seems like a pretty reliable source and the report seems very thorough, but I’m not qualified to say where they went wrong. So I would love to see what other sources say on the subject.
Edit: They even state in their report why the value they give for nuclear is on the low end of most accepted literature:
This value is comparable to the lower range of literature values because of the following assumptions: revised energy inputs for mining and milling, including electricity inputs for ISL, centrifugation-only enrichment, longer lifetime assumed for nuclear power plant (60 years instead of 40).
But even if you double the amount, it’s still the best or at least one of the best.
Really? Because they use the figure given by UNECE, that’s a pretty good source I feel? The report it comes from is also very thorough.
What sources have you seen that state a number 10 times higher? Would be interesting to see where the difference is and what numbers they give for other sources.
I think Crowdstrike has many many customers who use their Linux solutions, so you would have to ask them.
They provide corporate products, I don’t think corporations have anything even close to a conscience.
You are right, but in this specific chart, they don’t include things like building the facilities, mining the materials etc. They just use the CO2 released whilst producing power, which with nuclear is very low. You can click on the chart and zoom in on the data, it’s pretty cool. (This is wrong, see edit)
The whole Germany situation is very complex and I was just jabbing, I live very close to Germany and work in Germany part of the time so I know something about it (but probably not everything). To me phasing out the nuclear wasn’t that much of an issue, but it could have been done way slower to make sure renewables filled the gap. Buying gas from Russia with the war in Ukraine is going on permanently hurt my soul.
Quickly phasing out nuclear is also a big middle finger to the countries in Europe that are looking to expand their nuclear power, but run up against long lead times. They would have gladly bought nuclear energy from Germany, which would mean way shorter lead times and prevent a lot of extra CO2 during construction of new facilities. Whilst building new big nuclear probably isn’t useful in combatting climate change, getting the most out of existing nuclear would have been.
The fuel coming from Russia isn’t as big of a deal to me, as there are plenty of sources around the world to buy from. With the amount of gas we’ve bought from the US recently, we could have easily bought some nuclear fuel as well. Now all these sources have their issues, I don’t like being beholden to the US and places like Niger or Namibia can have human rights issues.
Obviously nuclear isn’t the future and needs to be phased out, but in my mind this meant decades yet and not the rushed phasing out Germany did.
Edit: Just checked the source, they actually do include things like mining of the fuel, construction of the facilities, transport of the fuel etc. into the CO2 calculation. Nuclear just blows everything out of the water in terms of CO2. Only renewables come close, but in terms of CO2 nuclear is the best.
Yeah, I mean Microsoft can release something like Windows 11 and still be in business, so I don’t expect a lot will change. But if you had any stocks in Crowdstrike, RIP.
Just to stir up some shit: France is green because they have a lot of nuclear power. Which means a lot of energy for basically zero CO2. Germany could have been green, but opted to shutdown their nuclear facilities in what can only be described as a “hurt themselves in confusion” move.
They are suffering from fallout because of media outlets like the one linked in this post that point the finger at Microsoft and Windows, but I feel this isn’t really fair.
If the kernel module Crowdstrike uses for Linux systems had failed everybody would rightfully point the finger at them for screwing up. But it probably wouldn’t be news since their Linux solutions aren’t as widespread as their Windows solutions are.
If a Windows update would have caused this kind of thing, pointing the finger at Microsoft is justified. But Microsoft has many policies in place that prevent this kind of thing from happening. Their ring based rollout for Windows Updates pretty much exclude this kind of thing from happening.
100% agreed, Crowdstrike fucked up with this one. I’m very interested to hear what went wrong. I assume they test their device drivers before deploying them to millions of customers, so something must have gone wrong between testing and deployment.
Something like this simply cannot happen and this will cost them customers. Your reputation is everything in the security business, you trust you security provider to protect your systems. If the trust is gone, they are gone.
Agreed, but again these updates were done by the Crowdstrike software. Nothing to do with Microsoft or Windows.
In this case it was an update to the security component which is specifically designed to protect against exploits on the endpoint. You’d want your security system to be up to date to protect as much as possible against new exploits. So updating this every day is a normal thing. In a corporate environment you do not want you end users to be able to block or postpone security updates.
With Microsoft updates they get rolled out to different so called rings, which get bigger and bigger with each ring. This means every update is already in use by a smaller population, which reduces the chances of an update destroying the world like this greatly.
More likely people switch from Crowdstrike to another security/audit software provider. And not to put too fine a point on it, but Microsoft will probably sweep up a lot of fleeing Crowdstrike customers with their Sentinel products.
While you are right, this outage has basically nothing to do with Windows or Microsoft. It’s a Crowdstrike issue.
Yeah that dude was fired the moment that picture hit the internet. The mouse doesn’t fuck around.
Elden Ring is absolutely beautiful. Since the DLC they’ve stepped up their game, using shadow and light to make something that’s really special.
The children yearn for the mines.
Nah they just want somebody to do what they want and Trump was that somebody in the past. As soon as he isn’t useful any more, they will drop him like somebody falling from a window.
