Horrible choice of tie. It gives Italy 1922-1943 and brings out an authoritarian vibe. 10/10 not recommended (for Office).

Get ready to be asked to send confirmation through FAX 👀

The same logic applies. Maintenance, parts, transport, energy distribution, etc. Indirect GHG emissions may be huge depending on how the logistics are (not) planned nationally.

But the only way to know is to actually crunch the numbers and check 🤷‍♂️

The world sure hopes it is negligible 😅

That will depend on the type of power plant. Assuming solar, there will be GHG emissions associated with producing new parts (mining minerals, actually fabricating the parts, etc), transporting them (produced locally? Or shipped across the world?), and so on...

Those indirect emissions can be huge!

Looks like the original post was deleted, here is the updated one.
Save the date, my fellow computational alchemists! The upcoming '26 Workshop on Free Energy Methods in Drug Design will be held in Barcelona, Spain, on May 4-6, 2026. The registration link will be sent soon!
