Not really. Pastors are being pushed out for being too woke and replaced by a more right wing figure. The congregation gets what the congregation wants. They've gone supply-side Jesus.

That reminds me to put on Bagger 288 one more time

discharged via heat exchangers to warm water for the local district heating network.

It needs certain infrastructure to work.

You could also use it to generate electricity. That's 20-40% efficient. With negative prices in summer these days that would still be interesting.

Pyrite rush, like a gold rush but with fool's gold.

The line must go up, they say, and these guys can't come up with all kinds of schemes for subscriptions or selling your data to extract more cash, government is often limiting their marketing, so they're restricted to lowering quality and increasing prices until you run out of customers.

It's more a classic lesson in authoritarianism. Yeah, they can do things that are hard to do in a democracy, but they can also drag down the country with them and you can't vote them out.

Germany: ~15%

France: ~6–8%

Netherlands: ~5–7%

USA: <1%

You need district heating for this to work. Not every place has that, so it's costly to install in places. You could use it to generate electricity, but then there are losses in the conversion.

You also have Stirling generator. No water needed, just heat. But they're more expensive and less efficient, so not used for commercial applications.

I didn't really care about the look. Then I saw one in the flesh in a car show. The thing just looked strange up close. It was cordoned off too unlike the hundreds of other cars there. I guess they didn't want people touching it because lots of greasy fingers and stainless steel body don't mix well.
