wait as long as possible to choose between SpaceX and Blew Origin? You mean wait to see who will give the biggest bribe?
The only urgency is to give a big fat pile of money to another oligarch and rake in more grift

Do what you want way up there. The swing between summer and winter amount of sunlight is drastic. However, down here? The change makes it much worse. It takes months just to get back to baseline after the clocks change. I just donâ(TM)t care, either pick one or just move the clocks 30 minutes one last time and keep it there. why has no one thought of this? Did the Canadiens study that? Move the clocks by 30 minutes and keep them there.

Nowhere did I blame renewables. I was replying to someone talking about the huge price spikes pointing out that they applied to people lucky enough to have power.

We were out 5 and a half days for the derecho. We were in a hotel out in Sealey.

We had a generator for Beryl, but hadn't had it wired into the house yet. We had a lot of extension cords.

Later, I got the inlet and subpanel wired in. We ended up powering the house on gasoline pretty regularly without any named storms until we moved away from Houston.

*** for customers who can still receive power.

During the freeze in 2021 or so, we had rolling blackouts. Myhouse was without power for 26 hours, 14 hours, 11 hours, 5 hours, 5 hours, 7 hours, 3 hours, 1.5 hours, 30 minutes, 45 minutes, and 12 minutes or so that week.

Also, wind turbines kill approximately zero humans per gigawatt-hour. That cannot be said of coal or natural gas plants.

âoeThis? This is Slashdot. This is what happens to people when they get too sexually frustrated.â

Are you suggesting that Alzheimerâ(TM)s is sexually transmitted?

Oh ho ho⦠you sweet summer child. Daaaaw, look at you with your little APIâ(TM)s, a few desktops, a server thinking this. Itâ(TM)s just so⦠so KYOOOOOT! You. Are. Adorbs.

There is a lot of BS on slashdot these days so itâ(TM)s awfully nice to see a post like this every once in a while. Good on you both.

As a sidenote, I love strange new worlds as well. I donâ(TM)t understand anybody saying they didnâ(TM)t like it. Didnâ(TM)t give a cent to Paramount for any of it eitherâ¦

No, but the only reason they want to buy it is CNN. Is it isnâ(TM)t especially quality anymore, but itâ(TM)s the last even slightly liberal news Outlet in America and is trusted across the world.

I used to visit countries in Asia that lacked stabled electricity. I used to think âoe why canâ(TM)t they just build more capacity and eliminate their corruption?â Now America is squarely in this position

We have always been at war with EastAsia.

This is how my mother consumes âoenewsâ now.
She told me everything is just so negative these daysâ¦
Ya think? I wonder why?
