Apple's taking a slow lean into AI and at it's core, Apple has always been a computing appliance company.

Easy to see Apple offering a home AI Mac Mini with home Siri support ("All your stay inside your house. Really. Trust us!"), along with easy to impliment IoT applicances.

This is just an evolution of Jobs' vision from the early '80s.

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.
