1·20 days agoThe first step in not living in a shithole is to not build a house in a shithole, e.g. swampy Florida.
Unbounded risk-taking such as insuring people building houses in risky locations will lead to bankrupting the country.
If insurance is going to cover it, then there needs to be stipulations on the home owner to reduce the risk - for example, building the home out of steel and concrete, raising the structure high enough so that floods and storm surges cannot reach indoors, etc.

You could spend the money, but you also need to consider whether that money is well spent. Batteries do not last forever. Maybe that money is better spent on R&D to develop better batteries first. Also natural resources and environmental impact needs to be considered. Batteries take natural resources to build and also occupies a lot of space.
20 years ago, we also have the technology to run AI workloads. Except we probably had to deploy billions of CPUs to match the capability of today’s GPUs. We have the technology then, but it is not practical. And that money was much better spent in the R&D that lead to today’s GPUs. So similarly our batteries probably needs to be a few magnitude better than what we have today before it is practical to use.
You need to consider more than just solar farms. There are many roof top solar systems on people’s houses. That’s what I’m referring to regarding logistical nightmare.
Second, if we are just going to cover up solar panels, then it really defeats the purpose of having it. A better way is to come up with ways to store this excess energy to use when there is low production and not have to depend on fossil fuels at night.
Your “technically you can” is actually a huge logistical nightmare to implement.
Having electricity rates go really low is intended to incentivize people or companies to sink the excess energy to wherever they can. And also to discourage producers to produce more at that hour, if they are able to.
1·2 months agoThings are so tiny nowadays, you could probably cram a tiny processor w/ ram, and 5g modem into something the size of one of those cylindrical capacitors. Of course getting by the scrutiny of US engineers receiving a product with that would be a little harder.
12·2 months agoWhat is this place? How do I get back to my AOL?
2·3 months agoPretty amazing that Iguazu Falls and Victoria Falls ended up in roughly the same place!
Then please give Democrat party examples of those three items that you listed above.
- Police State: Thin blue line flag flyers all support Trump, they are all against Black Lives Matters, which is protesting about police brutality
- Making Free Speech Criminal: Republicans banning books in Texas because it doesn’t agree with their world view
- Private Interests over Public ones: Republicans wants to give school vouchers to religious schools and take away public school funding
Lee Teng-Hui is the man that helped Taiwan transition into a democracy.

37 Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few;Matthew 9:37

I’m Chinese and I am also extremely weary of hiring someone from China. Pretty scared of CCP spies TBH.
Damn, Modi can redeem himself by just doing it again, but this time, stick a dagger in Putin’s back!
Maybe the title of this post or the article needs to be updated if solitary confinement itself wasn’t the real issue, but rather that it was a transgender woman being transferred from a women’s prison to a men’s prison?
Same, running a E5 2697 v4 (18C/36T) (Broadwell) that I bought used about 2 years ago. Also have a server running Ivy Bridge CPU.
I don’t game much, but this CPU is perfect for productivity type of work.
