How much do you have to pay for the ability to have a backup, or are you lucky enough to be charged more or less nothing if the batteries don’t go out?

What do you mean by not friendly towards grid tie? Do they charge you more for having solar (supposedly some places in California may have this)? Did they tell you you can’t sell solar power back?

I’d like to hear more about this.

While my current use case for a car would not allow me to purchase an electric vehicle, my future case would. However, I am planning to wait for solid state vehicles. I don’t like how prone to thermal runaway lithium batteries are in their current state. That, and I don’t like the trend towards bigger and heavier vehicles.

Don’t get me wrong. I’m happy to own a large diesel truck for when I need a truck, but it feels like such a waste as a daily personal commuter vehicle. Most of the time, it’s literally me and my spouse. Sometimes we have groceries, sometimes luggage. It’s such a waste of space and energy to be transporting an extra 3000 lbs around

That’s really funny. My electricity prices have basically tripled over the past two or three years and my use hasn’t changed.

With the push towards AI data centers that seem to have coats pushed to the average homeowner, I do not think an EV will be the most cost effective option, at least in “car” form.

Maybe an electric bike or scooter would be more cost effective

NATO is a defensive alliance.

The USA is one of the host countries. Would likely have to find ways to schedule games in Canada or Mexico

Sounds like Seattle

It is so strange to agree with Sepp Blatter.

This KDE bug was reported in 2013. I’m scared to look up the Windows bug report date…

First of all, I don’t use LLMs. Second, I made my point specifically because things can be missed if you rely on utility (only checked if a difference in water pressure makes it to your faucet) or public news (may not report if it’s only your municipality).

Are you being intentionally hostile for a reason?

Yes

So, sometimes it doesn’t make the news and it doesn’t affect your faucet. Sometimes a loss in water pressure affects most people but not you. I’ve had it where the utility will report it but if I don’t know there’s a problem, how will I know to check?

That’s when I subscribed to my municipality’s alerts

Huh TIL the nuclear bombs used two different technologies

Thank you.

At the risk of sounding like grandpa, I could have sworn in production used to be “is cooking UP” instead of just “is cooking”.

The fluidity of language.

“Valve reportedly cooking”

Ever since “cooked” became a thing I have been unable to understand titles like this (or really the slang use of cook)

Based on the article, it looks like Valve is creating a native Linux version of the game.

I have a conservative rep and I’ve thought about writing to them - but not for the reasons you state.

My plea would be to replace the speaker as the House isn’t working but they are getting paid. Even if the senate comes to some compromise, it still needs to be passed by the house IIRC.

Amelia近幾年去過香港嗎？

That says a lot about the Dutch

The elephant in the room is why did this kiddy diddler get selected? If he didn’t get selected, they wouldn’t need to deny his visa

Broke the fuck out? Bought than found out?
