@stman @theruran @50htz @vidak @forthy42 obviously #nvidia doesn't have any interest fixing it and their #ECC functionality is exclusive to the highest-end #Quadro, #Tesla & #nVidiaGrid cards, usually implemented only in #Software, thus sacrificing ~ 20% of VRAM.

I'm not surprised of this at all, only that it took so long surprises me...

Another thing that ties into this were some interesting discussions here on Mastodon I stumbled across the past week. This is maybe more of a grounded theory approach, but I could notice some connections to not only platform affordances but also terms such as #influencers produsage and #prosumers, which we talked about during the Uni lectures I attended 2 weeks ago - which is also a topic I wanted to get into in general: #musicproducer vs. #contentcreator and #musicmarketing .

Are you familiar with the term, #Prosumers ?

It's when someone both consumes and produces a product and is particularly apt for #solar owners. #Batteries are making it even more lucrative for these early adopters.

Look at the credit this Texas homeowner got for providing power when the grid operator wanted it as opposed to just when sun is shining.

@ArenaCops @susankayequinn
We need for more people and businesses to become energy #Prosumers using their #solar and #batteries which the mini-monopolistic utilities are frantically fighting against in order to protect their profits.
Texas has had such good results from their first pilot test with Virtual Power Plants #VPPs that they're putting another one the grid! #Prosumers https://ftp.puc.texas.gov/public/puct-info/agency/resources/pubs/news/2023/PUCT_Virtual_Power_Plants_to_Provide_Power_to_ERCOT_Grid_for_the_First_Time.pdf
@mediopocillo @johncarlosbaez
Much better to charge the #Batteries in one's home and vehicle when the prices go negative than it is to heat up one's home with unnecessary lights when there is excess production imho. Virtual Power Plants can turn consumers into #Prosumers #VPP

Tesla announces 'revolutionary' new program that it claims will save you tons of money on your bills

Tesla announced a new program called Tesla Electric that it claims will help people to create and sell clean energy from home.

@colo_lee @SWLABR
Yeah, something like that is what I was thinking (haven't fully developed nor will I ever since no one's paying me to nor would it make a difference) and the policy could only apply to sales after the new law was passed also imo.

Anyways, the new opportunities for #Prosumers in the energy sector are quite exciting for #BTM production and storage, for example the results that Tesla Energy are having in Texas this summer are going to make a diff. https://www.thecooldown.com/green-home/tesla-electric-powerwall-solar-wind-texas/

Power to the people: the neighbours turning their London street into a solar power station

Lynmouth Road, Walthamstow is about to become its own power station, with solar energy for 30 homes. Now the artists responsible want us all to change how we heat our homes. By Anna Fielding

The Guardian

Beyond their traditional role of consumers, more and more citizens are becoming ‘energy #prosumers’, who both consume and produce energy.

https://energy.ec.europa.eu/news/focus-energy-communities-transform-eus-energy-system-2022-12-13_en

In focus: Energy communities to transform the EU’s energy system

Energy communities bring together citizens to take joint action to produce local, clean energy, and contribute to increasing social acceptance and investments linked to local energy projects, which benefit communities both at societal and economical level.

Cities can offer new opportunities for prosumers of renewable energy

Europe’s urban centres offer opportunities for citizens to produce renewable energy as prosumers according to a European Environment Agency (EEA) briefing, published today. Cities can play a key role in Europe’s shift to a low-carbon future. Facilitating urban prosumption can help accelerate this process.

Electric vehicles, you might have heard, have a mineral problem.

Beneath the floor of an EV sits a 900-pound battery filled with minerals extracted from around the world. Millions of tons of lithium, cobalt, bauxite and other minerals are mined, processed, shipped and refined — sometimes leaving a trail of human rights and environmental abuses.

Well then you're glad that Biden is bringing domestic production here where we can do it better right?
