I guess a good way to hold onto another person's identity is to quickly open a bunch of accounts and move a bunch of times so the real person can no longer answer the identity questions.

And the defense against that is to buy your own information from the dark web because the credit agencies aren't going to give it to you without answering the questions correctly.

It's like the guy who squatted in his own home to make the squatters leave.

What environmental problem are you trying to solve by criticizing the amount of plastic Amazon produces?

The problem of microplastics and leachates entering our groundwater and food supply.

As a social media company, Reddit's value in training AI models is limited to that where engagement is valued above truth.

But I wish them luck anyway.

We still need liquid/gas fuels for aviation, construction equipment and so on, so it makes sense to keep some of the infrastructure in place. Air to Fuels may not be efficient but it may still contribute less to global warming than extracting virgin petroleum out of the ground.

Oh good, all they have to do is decommission the old nuclear plants that shut down in heat waves and build new ones.

Except France is the same country that's been building a new nuclear plant since 2007 and it still doesn't work.

Second how much does a kWh of solar cost at 9 pm?

That depends on the latitude and time of year.

How much does a kWh of nuclear cost in a heatwave?

I've found that when Amazon says to order by a certain time to get delivery on a certain date, they're usually right.

But when they're wrong, you can't prove it because the confirmation email never tells you the expected delivery date.

A test engineer would be a good choice, but a better one would be a safety engineer, one who not only knows that things will fail but also who anticipates how they will fail and how the system (pilots and aircraft) will detect and react to the failure.

Worries about "the image of the industry" are nonsense. People won't stop flying.

Whoopi Goldberg did.

Yes, there are many alternatives to plastic that we don't use right now because the economics don't work out.

Or instead of charging anybody, just require retailers to accept the waste plastic and then either recycle it themselves or return it to the manufacturers to recycle.

Recycling plastic uses more energy than it saves.

Then to avoid paying that cost, retailers will stop selling single use plastics. Problem solved.

Rather than recycle, we should charge people for and refund them to return their plastic trash to the garbage man.

Or instead of charging anybody, just require retailers to accept the waste plastic and then either recycle it themselves or return it to the manufacturers to recycle.

It is not putting out the same product as a coal or gas power station because its supply is unpredictably intermittent

That's a myth.

Yes, you could use it to pump water into a pumped reservoir system. Or to heat a thermal store. Or maybe to generate hydrogen by electrolysis.

Yes, or to charge a Powerwall or an electric car with V2G/V2H.

So gas plants with very short startup lead times are used to cover when the wind is not blowing.

That's already obsolete.

If it's anything like California's SB 478, the advertised price only needs to include all mandatory fees, aside from government taxes/fees. So if Comcast allows you to bring your own modem, then the rental fee is optional.
