      Could you please share information about your attached license? Example: What does this achieve and does it have any use cases?

        You were having a whole ass meltdown claiming solar power isn’t worth it without any proof while ignoring any counter proof and got put on timeout for it and now claim that it’s because the mods love oil.

        How is that fair representation?

          Do you think I’m wrong that this specific product is worth the investment, seeing as there is no evidence it will pay itself off or do any good for the environment? Am I wrong, or am I right but just a bitch about it?

            It’s just a solar panel and those are well known to work well.

            Am I wrong, or am I right but just a bitch about it?

            I’m leaning more towards a bitch who’s wrong.

            So the premise for you saying they won’t pay themselves off was that they’d go bad first which in the age of planned obsolescence is a fair assumption. However people have given you, granted anecdotal, evidence that their panels are still almost as effective after 10-20 years (don’t remember the exact numbers). People have also shown you that the manufacturers give a 20 year efficiency guarantee so buying at a manufacturer that is existing long enough that you can assume they will still be there in 6 years should be safe because if they’re not as efficient you get your investment back.

            So presented with counter evidence you chose to instead double down, grasping at Chinese companies called something a bottom would say when given attention by an attractive top. You threw around big oil somehow preventing them from paying off in the long run.

            That, I think, is frankly rude, very counter productive to an actual discussion, and probably stemming from a lot of frustration about how the consumer is always carrying the burden of doing something against climate change when like ten thousand of us get offset in our efforts by like 50 mid millionaires or 1 billionaire (numbers completely pulled out of my ass but you get what I mean).

            That frustration is completely fair but it’s not what you communicated. I honestly think, that while I wish for more Luigis, we little people also have to do our part. It doesn’t help to get rid of all the billionaires when we still consume as much beef and drive on gas. Getting rid of billionaires is a step necessary to educate people on better ways to consume because they counteract education with populistic propaganda which honestly doesn’t look very dissimilar to what you did.

    Beehaw is known for being way too heavy handed in moderation, though it hasn’t been too much of a problem because they decided to defederate from the large instances, which really killed the majority of the network effect they originally had in the fediverse. Honestly I’d just recommend staying away from them, they’re not a bad instance but you will encounter and deal with a lot of petty shit like this in their communities.

      Talking to beehaw users on communities in other instances is almost always nice in my experience.

        I’ve never had a problem with Beehaw users, it’s not like with Hexbear where people there are assholes who will attack you. Their only issue is the heavy-handed moderation, though my experience with Beehaw users has been few and far between, and that’s not a coincidence, but rather a negative side effect of that heavy handed moderation, since Beehaw has defederated from the largest communities and over-zealously bans users from the instance. Which has the effect of isolating their community, and their users.

        From what I remember a lot of people who were joining Beehaw in the earlier days of Lemmy ended up switching to lemmy.world, sh.itjust.works, or lemm.ee because they were missing out on all the content.

        Do you mean instance bans or in lemmy.world communities? If it’s community bans that’s different since those are often not affiliated with the instance admins. Beehaw though has not community mods, everything is completely and tightly controlled by their admin team, which makes their transgressions so much worse and reflect on them as an instance, and not just one community, or one moderator.

          Communities. Although some mods do have the ear of the instance. None of them seem to like talking about reality.

    Boohoo.

    Hey by the way, you can get money off your electricity bill in CA and OR by feeding your extra solar energy to them.

    But sure, it doesn’t make a difference. Nihilism like this gets us nowhere, and then you have the gall to complain about power tripping.

    Is “cringe” actually against the rules!? If not, I’d demand the rest of the mod team try to defend that! But yeah, it’s probably a better use of your time to just block the instance…

    Oil isn’t used to generate electricity except in very rare circumstances, so I don’t see why they would care that much.

    Definitely a silly thing to say.

      But solar power is increasingly being used to charge the batteries of alternatives to fossil fueled machines.

      Either way, OP probably meant fossil fuel interests in general rather than just oil companies, given the context.
