It probably boils down to the definition of "user" vs. owner/admin/host ... But I wouldn't be surprised if those definitions were unclear or missing entirely.
Imagine the stuff they wanted to keep secret???
Here's a taste: https://climate-reporting.org/undercover-in-project-2025/
We are!
Organisers of the Army of Drones campaign say they have built or purchased an extra 3,300 drones. Some 400 people have even sent their own hobby drones in the mail.
Well said. We're on the same page, and I totally agree.
Although I absolutely think we've gone overboard on tipping, I genuinely think tipping shouldn't be completely banned. Rather, ban expected tipping.
For instance, last time my wife and I were in London, we, as a clueless American couple, visited a tavern during their busiest period after work. We left a few pounds above and beyond the bill because it was clear they went above and beyond to serve us promptly and excellently despite the fact that they were literally overflowing with patrons. That's how tipping should work.
Yes, the reporting is incredibly lazy. Such is The Guardian's standards.
Drax is the largest power station in the UK. Assuming the figures in Wikipedia are in the same ballpark as the nameless report that The Guardian is referencing without citation, Drax has a capacity of 3.9 GW. Ratcliffe-on-Soar Power Station is capable of producing about 2 GW of net electricity. It's doubtful they're actually running either to capacity, but we can estimate that Drax produces roughly double the power as Ratcliffe-on-Soar. That means Drax is still roughly emitting double the carbon per watt.
It would be nice to know whether that figure includes biomass transport across the Atlantic...

As they say: Some people want to watch the world burn... Other people want to carry the torches.
I salute your bravery.
The chemistry is substantially different, so we'll probably have to wait until scientists run some tests to get a more precise set of parameters that affect degradation. I expect failure modes like dendrites are basically impossible with solid-state, but electrode cracking is still possible. There might even be new and exciting ways they can degrade! Regardless, this is still great news.
Engineering Explained has a good summary: https://youtu.be/w4lvDGtfI9U (Piped link: https://piped.video/watch?v=w4lvDGtfI9U)
Maybe it might override the name in people's minds, thereby stealing attention away from that other guy.
Ironically, there's a whole movement that directly fights that sentiment by deregulating the supply of housing. It's called YIMBY. When housing is a rarity, it's more expensive, so why not make more housing?
