This is the 'Energy Trilemma' conference, the 3 'battles' are: - Security - Affordability - Net Zero If anyone remembers the 'Training Day' episode from the The Office - it's the slide showing 2 dogs pulling in opposite directions, except it's 3 dogs in 3 directions.

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT Research for my Reliable Britain report required some adjustments to the Subsidy Clock. Or rather, it turned up some errors in how the Clock computes. Today’s update adds £56bn. The Clock now reads £289.6bn since 2002, in 2024 prices. The biggest changes: [1] Carbon in the price of power, now counted in full, in place of emissions trading and carbon tax: +£59bn [2] Grid and balancing charges, now measured against what a Britain without net zero would have paid: −£32bn [3] Each source now carried forward from its own latest published data, not from the day the site was last built: +£28bn (estimated, and labelled so) [4] VAT on household bills: +£4.5bn Every change and every correction is in the log:👇 subsidyclock.co.uk/changelog…

.@janrosenow is not confident of his argument and blocks those who are. His analysis is flawed. Gas drove electricity bills. Weather dependent energy subsidy made it even more expensive in every year since 2002. teapaw.org/janrosenow/status/2116… richardlyon.net/research/rel…

NESO is playing with fire. Disconnected leadership and optimistic modelling are putting Britain’s electricity security at risk. New analysis of frequency data, the Eversheds report, and the Winter Outlook. A thread 🧵(1/12)

I think the appeal with TNG was that it was like a simulation of a world where, if you made compelling arguments, people were swayed and it changed the course of the episode. The characters are all competent and fair-minded, and their universe is one that rewards this.
They used to just play shows like this on broadcast tv

Mick, the bass player from 36 Crazyfists, on a Sony tour bus sometime in the 90s. Lovely guy, great conversation, intelligent. Talked for over an hour, he was the most down to earth band member/artist I ever met. Hope you're doing well Mick
Who’s the most famous person you’ve ever spoken to? Not “seen from far away” — actually talked to, even for a minute. A quick hello, a handshake, a normal conversation… and you still remember it. Who was it?

Oasis’ reunion tour grossed $405 million. Their first drummer took £550,000 to give up his future royalties. Tony McCarroll played on Definitely Maybe, the album that launched Oasis. Then, in 1995, he was out of the band. The timing was brutal: Oasis’ first No. 1 single, “Some Might Say,” was climbing the charts just as McCarroll was being pushed out. Four years later, he took Oasis to court. His claim was reported to be as high as £18 million. The case ended in a settlement of about £550,000. In exchange, McCarroll gave up future royalty claims. In the video, he remembers what came after the band let him go: “I think I got drunk for three years.” Noel Gallagher’s side was that McCarroll couldn’t handle the band’s new songs. McCarroll later called the fight with Noel one of the stupidest things he’d ever done. £550,000 was a huge amount in 1999. But Oasis kept getting bigger, and the deal closed the door on future royalties. Was it a fair settlement for the drummer who played on their debut—or did he sell his share too soon?

A few years after Elite came out, Angus Duggan released Elite-A, an amazing extended version of the game. He added special cargo missions, a game encyclopedia, ship purchases, and much more. Download from tinyurl.com/ADuggan and make it flicker-free at elite.bbcelite.com/elite-a/

“Someone once told me that time was a predator that stalked us all our lives. I’d rather believe that time is a companion who goes with us on the journey. Reminds us to cherish every moment… because it will never come again.” Star Warrior (1983) #ZXSpectrum #PatrickStewart

This one hits very hard. Patrick Stewart was a brilliant actor, fascinating human being, and classic old school gentleman with talent, class, and a wonderful sense of humor. The world has definitely lost a legend. Rest in peace, Captain. 💔

The Manchurian Candidate from billionaire-funded Grantham Institute at the LSE that relies on Chinese students for income is talking nonsense again. NESO forecasts balancing costs to ~3X to ~£7.3bn by 2030/31. Transmission and CM costs to balloon too.
I am afraid that @KathrynPorter26 is unable to tell the truth about energy and climate. Balancing costs add about £3 per month to the average electricity bill. The payments to stop wind farm generation is a direct result of inadequate investment in the grid.
