Which system doesn't?

What the fuck is a "net zero" HVAC?

A window. The top models come with a sunscreen.

Fuck that.

Living in New Orleans...with easily avg temps in the mid to high 90's with mid to high 90's % humidity too....AC is a necessity.

That's been long known here....can't fathom why EU is having such a problem simply using AC when needed.

This isn't rocket surgery , this isn't NEW.

Natural gas is common in many southern states....TN, AL, MS, LA, AR and TX.....I've lived and visited there most of my life and it is common.

I've only lived in one apartment ONCE didn't have gas and I will not do that again.....I prefer gas to cook on and is cheaper for heat and water heating than electric by far....

Solar is already cheaper than coal

People and companies are STILL FREE to use all the solar they want, or any other source....

It just isn't mandated by the state.

.. which major American political party claims it is in favor of local control?

I would posit this IS an example of local control.

Most things of this nature need to be handled at the state level.....not at the federal level.

With the economy and high prices, etc....no one wants to force those in a state to enact policies that willl cost the citizens MORE money, and have pretty much "NET ZERO" measurable benefit to show for it on a global....hell, even on a local scale.

My personal mod troll is SO MAD I EXIST.

Rent free all day, all night. They never stop thinking about me.

Then why are you only demonstrating a child's understanding of the situation? A malignant state in decline having massive manufacturing capability is not a positive thing.

However, Florida is a small enough part of the global problem, that what they do locally will have essentially no effect. They couldn't fix the problem with local actions, and they also probably can't make it measurably worse.

Note that the US is not such a small part. That's a large enough fraction of the problem to make a measurable difference. Scale is significant.

I'll never buy one again anyway because they destroyed mine with updates. It was always laggy, but it became basically unusable.

It isn't that the majority of gun owners are actually responsible people, it is that we cannot tell WHICH are the responsible ones and not likely to go all postal.

It reminds me of a political cartoon I once saw. Reagan and Carter were on horse-back herding cows. Reagan asks Carter: Which ones are the sacred cows? Carter responds: You just have to ask'em.

Anyhow, if you want see the results of gun "culture" in the U.S., just look at stats on rates of gun deaths due to homicide in the U.S. to other countries. The stats are all over the intertubes and you too can google them.

hmmm.....so you say you have fantasies involving women in hijabs? That's fairly niche. With some effort, I'm sure you can move into fantasies involving men in hijabs. Regardless, I was unaware the migrants from S. and C. America were Muslim. Who knew?

This sounds like the bot has solved an engineering problem: "how do I thread this needle?" Bot: "Thusly! I'm a fucking genius!!!"

Ah, so if a state government cannot solve a global problem, they should just stick there with their thumbs up their ass and do nothing? Brilliant!!! Collectively solving any problem becomes impossible with that sort of reasoning. Do you work for la Presidenta? That's his sort of "reasoning".
