Good stuff.

There's a mod for surviving mars that puts a poo poo ton of sovietwave music in the game as a radio station. I really recommend it for anyone looking to fire up the game again.

I mean we in this

No for real though, Albert Camus is some real good poo poo. It's gotten me through some spells.

Also I have a home with a tiny home and a tinier home if anyone wants to garden with me while the planet dies.

E: oh and a third tiny home.

i have looked at buddhism for aid in this respect. i'm not buddhist, but i do occasionally meditate or ponder on the idea that all life is dukkah. it is really hard to not constantly get wrapped up in what's going on, and obviously i do all the time. but i work to try and maintain this idea that i can experience emotion without giving myself over to it

Have you tried looking into the Tao?

I found it more useful than flavors of Buddhism.

It's more direct and raw and less about poo poo that matters.

If there were a religion that was like "lol, lmao...nothing matters" it's the Tao. Except it's not religion. That's a bad word for it.

Pick your poison. A lot of folks like the Tao of Pooh as an intro. The main text is like....poetry that's hard to parse. I'd try and find one that isn't boiling it down into a pet project or metaphor.

Honestly, Alan Watts on YouTube is a great amouse bouche.

The 2021 Northern Hemisphere surface temperature was also the sixth highest on record. However, the land portion of the Northern Hemisphere had a temperature that was 1.54�C (2.77�F) above average and the third highest in the 142-year record. Only the years of 2016 (second warmest) and 2020 (warmest) were warmer. Meanwhile, the Southern Hemisphere had its ninth warmest year on record.

Siemens Gamesa: stormy weather buffets the wind turbine maker

The sector in general is having a rough time, but the Spanish-listed group is not just a casualty of externalities

So much for the winds of change. Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy, which makes wind turbines, kicked off the year with yet another profit warning.

This year�s sales are now expected to fall as much as 9 per cent year-on-year, compared with previous guidance of up to 7 per cent. Adjusted ebit margins previously expected to rise between 1 and 4 per cent, are now forecast to shrink as much as 4 per cent.

There are only so many profit warnings a company can get away with, and investors were quick to dump shares, driving them down 11.4 per cent in morning trade. SGRE�s peers, facing similar challenges with bottlenecks and inflated costs for inputs like steel, were also marked down. Shares in Vestas fell by 6.6 per cent and those of Oersted 3 per cent. This trajectory is nothing new either. The Danish duo have lost 40 per cent in the past year while Gamesa�s share price has more than halved.

The sector is having a stormy ride, buffeted by everything from supply chain disruptions to slowing wind speeds. Problems appear to be more sustainable than profits; SGRE flagged supply disruptions in the previous quarter too. Delayed orders mean idled capacity. But the Spanish-listed group, 67 per cent owned by Siemens Energy, is not just a casualty of externalities. The rocky ramp up of its 5. X onshore platform, which is facing design challenges, is behind schedule. Customers are delaying projects and higher costs resulted in an onerous contract hit of �289m in the first quarter.

Shareholder optimism, which fuelled rapid rises in 2020, has long since been tempered. Valuations however have deflated more slowly. SGRE�s first quarter ebit margin of -17 per cent, excluding integration, restructuring and other costs, is a long way from the 8-10 per cent long term target. The underlying case for wind turbine makers and the power they provide remains robust but the timeframe is elastic.

👍

Just want to emphasize this. Not only is he doubly relevant and prescient due to the Plague and all, but there are few better roads to understanding how to find Meaning than the one Camus seeks to impart.

The struggle itself toward fighting collapse is enough to fill a man's heart. One must imagine every poster ITT, happy
