I used both and things felt off. WinAMP of old was no nonsense player. Once version 3.x came it wasn't as popular and it was much more of a polished product but came with bunch of features that weren't needed in my opinion.
Just like everyone else, at one point I used WinAMP, then when they started the upgrade to new and significantly more hardware demanding version I switched to Aimp, which to this day I use as mobile application. Am no longer on Windows, but I still miss those applications. VLC simply doesn't fit that role of a music player.
Open sourcing WinAMP means we'll probably get a ported version for Linux, which I am very much looking forward to.
Kind of stupid idea. There is a place and need for light weight transport that is assisted bicycle. Our law classifies these (and electric scooters) as light electric vehicles and has special set of rules for them. Things like when driving on pedestrian paths they can't move faster than 5km/h. On roads maximum is 25km/h but they have to wear reflective west. Kids must wear helmets, etc. For the most part sensible requirements.
That said I am of the opinion everyone should take a test to participate in traffic, bicycles included. For bikes there aren't many rules they need to know anyway. They can skip almost all of the signs except those for the right of way. So it would be easy test but a necessary one. And simply bar kids on bicycles in traffic lanes and that's it. Safest for everyone.
I can believe people took up on this offer. As the saying goes drowning man will reach for straws. Issue is they probably oversold reliability and safety.
Grid is constantly adjusted by adding and removing power plants from the system to meet the demand. This process is not always automated because frequency needs to be synced and sometimes that's really hard to do automatically. For solar it shouldn't be a problem, wind, steam and hydro are different beasts. Here's a nice video showing the process of connecting hydroelectric power plant.
Edit: Here's another video on the subject. Worth the watch.
No. They came up with their own proposal, said they accept it and Israel got to see it at the last moment and of course refused it. So now we have headlines how Israel is attacking Rafah and refused ceasefire proposal which didn't even include release of hostages just bunch of demands from Hamas.
Okay, all electricity goes out, planes start falling, sewage gets clogged, no more coal for heating so that goes away as well, no plumbers and repair men to fix shit. So, I'd assume a chaos.
Translated: Dear suckers who keep giving us money for half-finished products. We are sincerely sorry, sorry for getting caught. We thought we could squeeze through with this one, but apparently our PC fans are not as gullible as our console fans.
Motorcycles are greener than cars anyway. Less wear on the road, less traffic jam influence, fewer parking spaces, fewer materials to produce and maintain, etc. Am fairly confident you 40 year old motorcycle is far greener than a new EV. Sure, EV will eventually offset its own manufacturing and material cost, but it will take a while, especially if we take into consideration where the electricity comes from.
