Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

The whole poem by Dylan Thomas is fantastic but that line in particular often pops into my head during difficult times, like these.

You'll need to sign up for a new account on the other instance. I'd recommend you persevere with getting a lemmy.world one and use that as your main one. Keep the one you've got in case of an lemmy.world outage.

Content is generally shared amongst the main instances so you'll generally be able to see the same stuff wherever you create an account. Most of the Lemmy apps have multi-account functionality so you can add both.

Oh dear someone has had a tantrum and resorted to shouting and ad hominiums.

I know solar is good and sounds like it works well for you in your part of the world. My only point is that it's not going to solve climate change like you make out.

I don't play Fortnite or Rocket League lmao.

Borderlands and Full Metal Furies spring to mind.

Always appreciated the levels of drawl it takes to squeeze this into one.

Yes they are the leaders in solar which is they are a good example... If the rest of the world was going at thier pace (it's not) it still wouldn't be fast enough.

Then we've got the degradation to worry about so the panels will all need regularly replacing whilst silver, gold and rare earth metals run out.

Rolling out that infrastructure is not likely to be smooth whilst most countries will be busy footing bills for the ongoing extreme weather. Not to mention the other potential blockers like wars, pandemics and lack of political will.

That last line sounds boundlessly optimistic and condescending in equal measures. Magic is real lol please. Of course I know sunlight comes from the sky and electricity can be used to play games consoles.

Not massively into D&B but this is one of my favourites:

Keeno (feat. Rou Reynolds) - Shelter From The Storm

Fight? Sure.

Succeed without significant loss of life and infrastructure? Doubt.

I thought "cakewalk" was a clever American amalgamation of "a piece of cake" and "a walk in the park".

Turns out it's actually related to slavery, so probably doesn't count.

But then you're just pushing the unknown/undefined part to "feels like".

We cannot define it properly so we can't discuss it formally or make assertions like it's the only thing in the universe that is not an illusion.

You could assert "Cogito, ergo sum." but that's kind of been done before.

Seems pretty realistic to me if Covid is anything to go by...
