Yes, you’re right and to my knowledge there isn’t anything similar to the “no cow on the ice” in the English language.

Well, Wiktionary translated it to “the coast is clear”.

Originally it was “No cow on the ice, as long as its butt is on dry land”.

My issue is that I would often start on something like “like peas in a pod” but directly translated Danish, which wouldn’t be something people would say.

I saw a floating dick with two penis rings on it. But I guess that depends on what’s on your mind.

The worst part for me is mixing sayings and the construction of sentences. I’ve never been that good at English grammar, but after using English more and more, my grammar in my native language have gotten worse. I’m half way in a sentence, in my native language, before I notice I’ve started on an English saying, but directly translated to my native language and it makes no sense. But, there’s no cow on the ice, as you say, because my wife and I are like pots and pans, as you also say; we are the same way.

Fexofenadine is also by far the best I’ve used for my allergies. I have no side effects from them, no sleepiness and they work in 20 min. I use the 120mg variant.

I have nothing to compare to, but I recently bought a Dell OptiPlex 9020 for $15/£13. It works wonders. I run a handful docker containers and a VM and haven’t experienced any issue since I bought it. It’s my first time experimenting with a home lab setup.

But still, wouldn’t renewable assets suppliers have an incentive to install assets in these areas? If the spot price is high and they can produce “free” electricity, their earnings are a lot higher than the fossil fuel plants.

I don’t know how wide spread smart meters are in the US, but it should be fairly simple so have an extra tariff on these kind of consumers, or perhaps just tariffs during peak periods.

At least it could be enforced that the surplus heat from data centers had to be reused in some way, could be residental heating or ptx.

Torrentio have been unstable for me the last couple of days and i couldn’t get it to work a few hours ago.

I don’t think it’s all bad in the long run. A higher base load also give higher incentives to install renewable energy. In Denmark we have issues with the cannibalisation effect, i.e. We have reach a point where it’s no longer financially viable to install more renewable assets. We often see negative power prices on windy and sunny days, which forces the renewable asset owners to either turn off their assets during these periods, or pay the negative spot price.

In certain periods they might have cheaper prices than regular consumers and in other periods it might be more expensive. They just have a fixed price agreement. No producer of electricity hands out free power.

How would that work? With a flat fee or depending on whether ai companies are tipping the scale to a more expensive marginal price within a price period?
