@heat-geek.bsky.social I’m trying to help someone with a poorly functioning Samsung air to air heat pump. Do you have anyone recommendations for company in the Tamworth region that could help him please?

Anyone know what’s wrong with the UK’s Carbon Intensity API?

Yesterday (Thursday) evening saw the highest transmission network demand of the winter so far, 47.9 GW.

Peak demand is almost always early evening on a cold Thursday; chances are that was the peak of the winter

The trolls seriously thought I would be back - no chance!

I’m not sure as mine is old and I don’t have solar. I’d go Zappi if I did!

Ohme or Zappi would be my recommendations

Agreed. Colin helped convince me to move from an Outlander PHEV to a BMW i3

Chart shows how often European countries have gas setting their wholesale power price in 2021. The UK was top at 97% of the time, with the EU average at 39%

However, the problem is in Britain is we almost always need some gas-fired power. More than any other country in Europe (partly because we’re less able to share power with our European neighbours).

And gas is the one that’s expensive to produce more of…

It’s kinda 😢 that a platform I loved for ten years in which I was happily conversed with experts in their field. The sale of Twitter to that idiot was the death of democracy. Experts were now hounded, trolled and abused by facists and keyboard warriors. I’m glad that I finally deleted my account!

I’m not going to leave X just yet - I hate that sense of being driven away from a place I used to love. But after one day on here, I already know how much prefer it.

So if you see this and would be kind enough to share it to let people find me, that would be hugely appreciated. Thank you.

Are the other members of the FC team on here too?

Oh it’s difficult isn’t it. I’ve seeing so many ‘I closed my X account, now I’m here’ both on threads and here.
Now I’m seeing, ‘due to blah blah something on Threads I’m on Bluesky.
I’ve been on both since the weird South African bloke bought twotter last year. I’m definitely more here though.

I’m not surprised Sarah, because both Facebook and Twitter are now very toxic platforms and you were getting trolled on every post you posted!

That’s great to know as I will shortly be ditching Twitter for good

Question. How did Mastodon do in term of member numbers and is that now declining?
