There is a branch of battery research that is only focused on grid storage. It’s the last piece to make solar and to a less extent wind unbeatably affordable.
In a home solar setup, batteries are the other half of the cost and have not fallen as fast as the cost of the panels themselves, the other half of the cost. For fully off grid setups, they quickly become the main cost.
k.
Calling them boomers insults boomers.
They behave exactly a child does when a parent forces an apology.
They have the words they’re expect to say so they do say them but they don’t undersranr why, they definitely don’t mean it and they lack the restrain to not doing whatever they apologized for over and over.
Gen X are worse than baby boomers. They gave us the antivaxx movement.
Killing future children with climate change was taking too long so they went with preventable diseases.
My criticism here isn’t about any specific group or topic. It’s about this aggravating debate pattern where rhetoric is used to paint the opponent’s argument into a morally charged form rather than addressing the actual claim being made.
That style of engagement is not something that ever leads to meaningful discussions.
A similar dynamic occurs in other highly polarized subjects where participants are more focused on signaling moral positions than resolving the underlying question.
This sort of shit has been going on since at least the times of Artistole who championed logic over emotion.
Arguing with vegans is like arguing with antivaxxers, they are positions based on emotions and they have their own version of reality they use to reinforce their believes. They often claim they have studies to back up their claims but the most shallow dive shows them to be bullshit.
It’s literally evident as they try to reframe this as rape. Their need to lean on rhetoric shows they have a strong basis for their believes.
banned phones at the dinner table entirely
I would everyone is doing this. Sitting down to eat together once a day and talk isn’t something only billionaires can afford.
They answered yes while creating a reason to be offended for having to answer yes.
Can’t make this shit up. Impotent rage is some people’s identity.
It is definitely possible to travel and not experience culture.
Thinking you understand culture byecuwse you have the internet is sort of admitting your that type of person.
The problem with talking to randoms online is the things they don’t say because it’s their normal. Experiencing those differences in normals is what is being discussed here.
When I was in school this was a literally social studies topic discuss many times over all the years we learned about other cultures which really reinforces that some people dont pay enough attention to receive any value from travel.
That doesn’t mean other can’t or don’t.
You sound like someone who has never experienced court outside of tv or movies.
The courts process is entirely pragmatic. The entire point is to remove all emotions. The judge is not going to presume malice.
The person most at risk here is their council. It they were aware of this stunt they could cause themselves serious damage.
Go onto a court room and hold up your phone, pointing at the jury. Report back on how that goes for you.
These guys went full techbro.
Never go full techbro.
Ignore these people. Delete kitchen and reinstall. Had this happen once and the plumbing and electrical was all messed up too, only fix was fresh install.
Definitely don’t ignore this, I heard about a guy who did and he had to reformat his entire house. Took all weekend.
Silencing a phone does not save battery.
Is this meant to be an insult? Most kids are average.
Most parents who think their kids are measurable above average are the ones missing half the stupid shit their kid does.
Depends on how many older siblings they have.
Gallons are still countable.
That’s because you don’t understand infosec. It’s assure you, they are unimpressed despite their polite chuckle.
Software engineers predicted this would happen. The percentage of developers that love fixing other people’s code is essentially zero, fixing ai code is even smaller.
If they require low wages, they’ll only get the worst of the worst. Expect this phase to repeat until they are forced to hire for competence and pay above market rate required to convince senior developers to deal with not just the ai mess but all the failed attempts to turn it around.
