Let's talk about #Microsoft reaffirming its commitment to 100% of its electricity consumption with #renewable #energy purchases. First, this is a good thing, especially in light of their plans for data center expansion. It's not just empty promises, they actually did achieve this for the first time last year. Look, I don't like everything Microsoft does, but they do deserve some credit here.

I find it kind of neat to think that the #solar (and #renewable) power uprising is unstoppable at this point it does not matter if you don't think it's worth it, in the long run solar always wins due to near-zero operating expenditures, and in the short term solar also wins because even high efficiency panels are literally cheaper than plywood these days. and if you're worried about the nights: guess what, (e.g LiFePo4) battery cells are now also like 50-100$ per kWh. Fossil fuels are losing.
