What’s also interesting is that you have to factor in the costs and CO2 emissions of the fuel source and it’s delivery method. A new building code for a county in my area was adopted which requires calculations for energy efficient HVAC systems and also CO2 emissions with those systems. Surprisingly, natural gas has less CO2 emissions associated with it, while electricity is 2.86 times as much. This is because grid electricity is mostly produced by fossil fuels, then needs to be delivered to the site but there are many losses along the way. So even if the all electric equipment is twice as efficient as the equivalent natural gas equipment, it still contributes more CO2 production. This is part of the issue with phasing out natural gas and moving to all electric in its current state. But with that is the push (and requirements) to produce energy on site and shift towards net zero energy for commercial sites, which is definitely better than using grid power from an emissions standpoint.

Please yes please I cannot wait!!

Honestly I agree. I think it’s a great game though, at least what it has become, but I think I keep getting disappointed with certain things that are just an issue with the core mechanics of the game. There’s only so much value to adding tons of content if the game is dull at its core.

I have over 350 hours in NMS but every time I try to pick it back up I realize why I stopped before.

My tired brain accidentally read this as “anti-trust” laws and was surprised but excited, but then was confused reading the comments. Then I reread the title and was like oh fuck, this is messed up as hell. My excitement died in .01 seconds.

Seriously fuck these people. They are more obsessed/concerned with trans people’s genitals than actual trans people…

What is the point of this kind of post and what kind of beneficial discussion does it bring to the platform? It’s one thing to discuss what they are actually doing or saying, and it’s another to assume what they are thinking just to make some point about them? We shouldn’t stoop to their level and make assumptions about their thought process. Conservatives will do the same thing based on the BS they hear and assume all left leaning people desire to kill babies and force gender change surgery on minors, which we all know is not true. This post is basically doing the same thing.

Sure many conservatives have brain dead “political opinions” on actual science and fact, but this post doesn’t help in any way

This is literally insane. I’m baffled how things like this become enforceable laws. It’s almost hilariously flawed. I’m sure many people will be very uncomfortable with bearded men in the women’s room, and the many other awkward scenarios that could happen. It’s also downright dangerous for trans and even cisgender people

Did you pay by yearly subscription? Might just be you already paid for the next several months until it expires, and just won’t renew the next billing cycle.

Otherwise that sounds like a bug that benefits you haha

I literally don’t get it either. “BuT It lEtS me DOwNlOaD iT iN AdVanCE” but like are you really that impatient you need it the second it’s released? And before seeing if it’s actually a good game or not?? It’s like people have learned nothing from the constant shitty releases time and time again
