Matt BlazeSomeone just yelled at me for claiming (in the caption of a photo of wind turbines) that wind turbines are large.
They are, objectively, pretty big. I'm not trying to body shame wind turbines. But there's no denying their size.
Harald WagenerAny wind turbines reading this: you look great just as you are.
Richard "mtfnpy" Harman (he/him)@mattblaze this feels more like somebody is envious of someone else's larger turbine. 👀
mbpaz@mattblaze FWIW, they're generally white, tall and slim. Canonical beauty, isn't it?
Norman Wilson@mbpaz @mattblaze Ubuntu gets no credit for them, but you're right.
Tyrone Slothrop@mattblaze I’m a big fan
(sorry, it’s late here, I’ll find the door myself)
Coles Street Pothole@slothrop @mattblaze Damn. A+ there.
Schamschula@mattblaze I always remember how small the first generation of wind turbines at Altamont pass were in comparison with subsequent generations. The physics is clearly favoring larger impellers, all constrained by materials engineering.
John Quentin Heywood@mattblaze whoosh, whoosh, whoosh
