It shall soon be illegal to speak in person without government authorities present to ensure nothing illegal is being discussed.

The government rep wouldn't have to be present if they could just convince people to carry small, wirelessly connected computing devices in their pockets that contain cameras and microphones. If people were to start doing that, then the government would be pretty much be able to monitor anything it wants anytime it wants. Luckily, I doubt there's much chance of getting folks to carry such a device around with them at all times....

You mean like cellular phones? Ya who would ever carry ones of those around :)

I have Sunpower solar panels on my roof. Here is their rating.. SunPower Corporation (“SunPower”) warrants that for 25 years beginning on the Warranty Start Date1 (the “Warranty Period”), its photovoltaic modules specified above (“PV Module(s)”), shall be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal application, installation, use and service conditions, and the power output of the PV Modules will be at least 95% of the Minimum Peak Power2 rating for the first 5 years, and declining by no more than 0.4% per year for the following 20 years, so the power output at the end of the final year of the 25 year warranty period will be at least 87% of the Minimum Peak Power rating. At 30 years they will still be generating around 80%.. that's not negligible.
