Motherfucker is 6'2 - 250 and looks like he can bench press a Vespa. Not sure what she was hoping for

Dylon spits a hot fiya, man

Whats your take on temu

One answer could be to croudsource it. A mesh network of generative and storage nodes, like someone with solar and a home battery, but large enough to backfeed as needed. Perhaps on an hoa/neighborhood scale. If it could be incentivizes and achieved without undercutting the grid then it could eliminate the need for peaker plants

Also if it's cold as shit

That's akin to our rates, im about 13c/kwh delivered. I use about 1.2 to 1.5 mwh per month (with natural gas furnace and wood stove), so 2.50$/kwh would make me shut my house off at the breaker and call it camping.

Good point, for aome reason i was thinking more off-grid than load balancing economics. The battery would probably help lower power by filling when power is cheap and supplying when the rates spike throughout the day

At 50 bucks a day it would pay for itself pretty quickly. Not sure what prices are by you but here you can get a brand new stove with auto-temp and a catalytic converter and everything installed for 10k to 12k, or get a decent used stove and have someone install it for 5k +-

Solar is quite poor in Northern winters. Wind + solar + heat would be a better bet, but the battery required to heat your house for more than a day with low winds would be prohibitively expensive unless you added geothermal to the mix like a geothermal heatpump which is also very expensive. Betweem the gear, battery, geothermal, all installed your probably in the 80k$ range or more. A wood stove would be the best bet

I'm going full Bilbo Baggins is i make it to 111 years old

Pretty sure it directly replaces "for real"

You should make a series list of episodes, it's a pretty good format to remember all the crazy stuff that has rolled through lately

Would this not be s05e01?

Good distinction. I imagine anyone typing into a google search bar with an android device nearby could have their keyboard mapped though, if Google ever wanted to do such a thing.

They'll just use all the other methods they have to track what your typing.

Researchers had artificial intelligence listen to the sounds of typing through a phone and over Zoom, with eerie results.

Excellent distinction. Ty for the info

Is that picture from before or after the missile hit? That ship looks like it belongs in a treeline behind someone's old barn

Besides maybe coal

Everything I find shows them as still being subsidized and receiving the lions share of energy subsidies, which is fine in my book.

They do get subsidized pretty well, which is a good thing in my book.
