En Uruguay el golpe fue en 1973. La dictadura cívico militar se mantuvo hasta 1985

I've seen this before and it only worked to turn right-wing parties into far-right ones

Es que estamos en la década tarada. Siempre que quiero pensar lo opuesto veo algo que lo reafirma.

Totalmente

La demanda eléctrica se está volviendo más flexible (vehículos que pueden cargarse en distintos horarios, termotanques, centros de datos, etc). No es tan complicado como parece y tampoco hay que olvidarse de la geotermia, biomasa y biogas, que son más flexibles que la nuclear.

Durante momentos de baja generación renovable se usará un poco de todo: baterías, importaciones, hidráulica, respuesta a la demanda, gas y nuclear. Ésta última comparte una característica con las renovables: cara de construir, pero no de operar. Por eso, sólo conviene si se usa constantemente

No nos va a salvar la nuclear, aunque es cierto que es la fuente con menos muertes. Económicamente, usarla en países con bajo potencial renovable y/o alta densidad de población no es mala idea, pero usarla por momentos para apuntalar el sistema hace que se convierta en un agujero de recursos

He's literally Milei's copy. Milei uses AI for everything, even to create pictures of his 5 dogs (he tries to convince us that they're alive). He also uses it to attack opponents, inventing things like Ku-k 12 virus and pictures of Lali Espósito, a singer and actress, stealing poor people's money.

Are you kidding me? Guys, you use boilers for heating that run on 100% fossil fuels but complain about AC which runs on electricity and is at least 2 times more efficient. I thought The Guardian was serious and reliable.

Same where I live, Uruguay. The only problem is that I guess they wear faster due to the movement of the branches

Nice. Could you improve the translation function? When I touch in translate, it just opens Google translate but it does not translate anything.

Starmer is too occupied being transphobic

The UK needs to extend heat pump subsidies to air-to-air ones. They are cheaper and provide cooling. Shading, insulation, and ventilation (if used correctly) are great ways to save on cooling, but they can't replace air conditioning in humid or hot conditions

I can't see why it wouldn't be possible to generate more electricity. Its demand has been growing for centuries, and now we have better tools to manage that growth.

Energy is more than just electricity. Although we will use more electricity, systems like heat pumps, electric cars, induction cooktops, furnaces, etc waste much less heat than their gas counterparts.

It could be. I suppose economies of scale also matter. Heat pumps are relatively new in the UK. I remember that back in the early 2010s, the cheapest inverter air to air heat pumps here (Uruguay), were around USD500 or more. Now you can find them for less than 350.

I suppose that's because in Australia the most common type of heat pump is air to air, especially ductless units, so the installation is much simpler. The same applies in most of Asia and Latin America
