Hey, this one is pretty good!

I knew someone who actually did this with an iPod years ago

What is ohs?

*Quick Google

Occupational Health and Safety?

Cross post bots? Why cross post bots?

Bing, with the same prompt:

I'm excited that this is already happening, and I expect this will be a common practice with used car packs. A pack can be worn enough to be impractical in a vehicle, and still function well as stationary storage.

Egg sandwich, along with mayo

Wow. Not just words, but proper reflection of words?

I've never understood what kind of person willingly takes on the challenge of outrunning a bull

I work with CNC machines, and those were unaffected. But the measuring devices we use to double - check tolerances and record the fact that our parts are good went down. The computer that tracks the number of good parts and scraps for the day were also down.

So, we kept running and did more manual checks with micrometers and gages. Work slowed slightly, and record keeping had to be on paper for a while and entered manually on Monday.

Also we couldn't clock in that day, the time tracking computer was also down. So a head count was taken and also entered into eh computer once it got running

Are you looking for people who consistently and exclusively write negative comments on all platforms at all times?

Pushing to make the data centers more efficient seems like a missed opportunity to demand that they use renewables only, or else cut them off the grid so they're forced to generate their own energy while also making it very very expensive to pollute.

Essentially, it seems like legislation could force data centers into a spot where they have to divert some of their profits into building up more renewable energy - for themselves and for the grid

Well, I'd rather see blankness than another ad.

Some I would definitely talk to regularly, some I already don't talk to even though they are family.

I've seen other discussions come to the conclusion that rooftop solar on a warehouse size building would be more expensive than the whole infrastructure of parking lot shades. They said that the entire structure would need reinforcement. Not a problem on new buildings, they can be designed to take the extra weight from the start

There's also leverage to make a bulk deal for the panels and installation because it's Walmart or whatever, rising cost of electricity (depending on location) shortening the payoff time, grants and tax breaks for renewable energy, the value of a green energy initiative for a PR push, attracting more customers because their cars can park in the shade.

If they have to design custom canopies, wiring solutions, etc, it would add to the costs a lot.

Wouldn't all of those costs be offset by the power generated? At least, the solar power would reduce the stores' draw from the grid. At most (depending on the size of the parking lot) the store would feed the grid on sunny days.

It seems to me that investing in the panel canopies, controllers, and modified grid connection would soon pay for itself and then fund the installation of the same for the next store.

Generating world peace.

The world would become a better place, and no one would be able to trace it back to me. I get to live in a warless world and still have my privacy.

Yeah, sometimes it's hard to believe that people are different from each other
