Dus een huis verwarmen tot 21 °C (en daarvoor energie verbruiken) is helemaal oké…
Maar een huis in de zomer koelen tot 21 °C –met een vergelijkbaar werkingsprincipe en ook met energieverbruik- is nu ‘des duivels’?
Waarom eigenlijk?
P.S. De warmte die een airco -eigenlijk een warmtepomp- naar buiten blaast, is geen “nieuwe” warmte. Dat is gewoon de warmte die uit de woning naar buiten wordt verplaatst.
Vous savez quoi, France Info ? La Russie, elle en a rien à cirer. La joueuse russe, elle en a rien à cirer. Plus personne n’en a rien à cirer, de vos petites magouilles, de vos deux poids deux mesures, de vos indignations à géométrie variable. Vous pouvez expliquer pendant des heures pourquoi l’hymne russe n’a pas été joué, elle, elle a gagné. Elle a son trophée. Elle a sa médaille. Elle a la fierté pour son pays. Pas pour vous.
Vous, vous êtes restés là, dans votre semoule de merde, à commenter des règlements, à justifier l’injustifiable, à punir une gamine de 19 ans pour une guerre qu’elle n’a pas faite. Et pendant ce temps, la Russie avance. La petite championne avance. Et vous, vous tournez en rond. Dans votre bouillie. Votre purin. Votre petite soupe tiède et insipide.
Alors gardez vos explications. La Russie s’en fout. La championne s’en fout. Le monde s’en fout. Vous êtes juste un bruit de fond. Un pet dans l’eau. Une tache sur le paysage. Et ça, c’est vous qui l’avez choisi.
The Iranian navy, which has been destroyed eight times, has apparently closed the Strait of Hormuz again, because the United States, for the seventh time, won the war that wasn’t a war, so now the United States has to open the Strait of Hormuz that was already open before the not-war began.
The not-war began because Iran had uranium that was totally, completely, beautifully obliterated, so they can’t build the nuclear bomb they weren’t building, which is why the United States had to start the not-war it definitely didn’t start.
Now the United States, which has nuclear weapons, is threatening to use nuclear weapons to stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons, because nuclear weapons are far too dangerous for countries with nuclear weapons to allow other countries to have.
If the United States saw the United States doing what the United States does in other countries, the United States would invade the United States to liberate the United States from the tyranny of the United States.
i saw a mouse with an X-shaped battery compartment.
first thought: this is stupid - who designed it?
5 seconds later: oh.
10 seconds later: OHHH!
the X slot fits an AA or an AAA battery - whichever you've got lying around.
the part most people miss is that the shape also makes it physically impossible to load both at once.
there is no warning label, no instructions and no way to screw it up.
the geometry does the thinking for you.
japanese has a word for this.
poka-yoke = "mistake-proofing."
the product refuses your stupidity before you can offer it.
i wish more things worked like this.
Hegseth: "Europe needs the Strait of Hormuz more than we do. Get in a boat. This is their fight, not ours"
The US closed the Strait which was open before the war. So, it's now Europe's fight?
The White House is completely silent as BBC confirms a consistent pattern of massive financial spikes occurring just minutes before Donald Trump makes market moving announcements. The administration is facing severe allegations of illegally profiteering off inside knowledge.
The BBC just released a documentary on Israeli snipers shooting children in the head.
168 cases. 95 shot in the head or chest. Over two-thirds under age 12.
This has been happening since October 2023.
It is now April 2026.
When 12 people were killed in Charlie Hebdo attacks, World Leaders thronged to Paris for a Solidarity March
But no world leader has organised a march to protest killing 2000 civilians, ~200 children, ~300 women, 7 journalists, 178 health workers, and 3 UN peacekeepers in Lebanon
Dose Ranging for Clinical Safety and Efficacy Skipped for mRNA Vaccines
Rigorous research has been ignored over the 30 years of mRNA research, people paid the price. Safety before efficacy and rationality before hubris. @PeterSweden7@mtgreenee@NicHulscher https://t.co/CCudxGvZo2
In intensive talks at highest level in 47 years, Iran engaged with U.S in good faith to end war.
But when just inches away from "Islamabad MoU", we encountered maximalism, shifting goalposts, and blockade.
Zero lessons earned
Good will begets good will.
Enmity begets enmity.
