Yeah.

Even if it's not required, someone should have considered the schadenfreude and PR disaster from something like this happening.

Thanks.

Wasn't paywalled when I read it.

 

Only 37 percent of Europe’s surface waters are in good condition, warns the European Environment Agency. Climate change, habitat degradation, freshwater overuse and pollution are key threats. "Our waters face unprecedented challenges," said EEA Executive Director Leena Yla-Mononen, highlighting risks to Europe's water security.

Clear and concise. Thanks.

The charger is made for the battery, it's just that the newer batteries have somewhat more capacity. Thanks for all the extra details.

Very easy to understand analogy. Thanks for that. Makes it very clear on how it works. Doesn't sound like a too small hose should cause problems then?

[–] CAVOK@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Good answer and explanation. Thank you.

It's a power-tools charger that came with the tools. The earlier batteries were 1.5Ah, the newer are 2Ah.

Presumably the guy had to go trough some sort of "security clearance" to get a job like that, so someone fucked up.

Wish you were too. Amazing how such a monumental decision could be taken on a simple majority vote, and without a plan on what would happen next.

Could it be that Farage & Johnson are actually underpants gnomes?

  1. Leave the EU
  2. ???
  3. Profit

Buying emeralds in a childrens game for 10.000€ is really funny though. NGL.
