I'm enjoying watching the escalating "what the gently caress, wha..what th...WHAT" from this thread that a lot of Hoosiers experienced when it was introduced It makes zero sense unless you factor in that the utilities are incredibly powerful here. When the issue is the utilities paying the highest rate for the free energy they're getting, why fix that when you could rip the whole thing up and force everybody to just give them a bunch of money

Bert Roberge posted:Can some redhat lurker in this thread tell me how to love Trump? If you have a nice life goin' for you, there's no reason for you to love Trump. You need to believe that the world is doomed and always has been. "Trump is steering into the skid embodied. Trump is Pepe. Trump is loserdom embraced. Trump is the loser who has won, the pathetic little frog on the big strong body. Trump’s ventures of course, represent this fantasy: this hope that the working man, against the odds dictated by his knowledge, experience, or hard work will one day strike it rich — Trump University, late night real estate schemes, the casinos. Trump himself, who inherited his wealth, represents the classic lucky sap. But Trump also equally represents the knowledge that all of that is a lie, a scam that’s much older than you are, a fantasy that we can dwell in though it will never become true, like a video game. Trump, in other words, is a way of owning and celebrating being taken advantage of. Trump embodies buying the losing bet that will never be placed. He is both despair and cruel arrogant dismissal, the fantasy of winning and the pain of losing mingled into one potion. For this reason, the left should stop expecting Trump’s supporters to be upset when he doesn’t fulfill his promises. Support for Trump is an acknowledgement that the promise is empty."

It's a pretty decent article from someone who no doubt lurks this thread, btw. It is definitely overwritten, but hey - that's medium.com for youquote:Thus these Trump supporters hold a different sort of ideology, not one of “when will my horse come in”, but a trolling self-effacing, “I know my horse will never come in”. That is to say, younger Trump supporters know they are handing their money to someone who will never place their bets — only his own — because, after all, it’s plain as day there was never any other option. https://medium.com/@DaleBeran/4chan-the-skeleton-key-to-the-rise-of-trump-624e7cb798cb#.8qludoxoi

This is the thing I don't get, the Mojave Desert as well as significant portions of the southwestern US is worthless land that (mostly) cant be farmed, mined or ranched. Why in gods name aren't the southwestern states fighting tooth and nail to turn that barren wasteland into a major industrial center of the US with titanic amounts of Solar Farms? Nevada, Arizona and others could become industrial powerhouses by supplying power to the rest of the US but something seems to be stopping them. Maybe i'm missing something?

It probably isn't going to be enough to power an entire average home, but they're becoming extremely common as a supplement or to run some high load stuff like AC or whatever Once installed it's free money basically, because the first X watts you spend every hour will always be whatever watts are generated by the solar

Pretty much the only thing that will save us from failing the Great Filter at this point is if some virus or bacteria evolves that infects and then renders oil stores unusableAnime Schoolgirl posted:well there's also the issue of people dying or getting genetic mutations from coal runoff, coal being unprofitable in 5 years and oil in 15, air quality, and the simple fact that people won't want to live in your state if you're hellbent on ripping them off sorry I owe it to the shareholders to extract the most profit I possibly can right now

if it was just them paying wholesale for whatever excess energy that would be lame but at least it wouldnt be fuckin insane. hell, even refusing to pay anything for excess at all would still be robbery but at least it would make some kind of hosed up sense. if you can't use your own drat panels without paying the power company that's just off the wall bonkers

"Graham: Any Trump ally working inappropriately with Russia 'needs to pay a price' By AIDAN QUIGLEY 02/15/17 10:06 AM EST Sen. Lindsey Graham said Wednesday morning that Russia and any ally of President Donald Trump working with Russia needs "to pay a price" for their involvement in trying to influence the election in Trump's favor. " If it is true, it is very, very disturbing to me, and Russia needs to pay a price when it comes to interfering in our democracy and other democracies," Graham said during an appearance on "Good Morning America" on ABC. " And any Trump person who was working with the Russians in an unacceptable way also needs to pay a price." Story Continued Below Trump called recent news reports that his aides had contact with Russian intelligence officials during the 2016 elections "fake news" Wednesday morning and said the "Russian connection was non-sense which was an attempt to cover-up the many mistakes made in Hillary Clinton's losing campaign." Graham said if reports are true, Congress needs a joint select committee to examine the communication between Trump aides and Russia during the campaign and Trump's business ties to Russia. The South Carolina Republican senator said he and Democratic Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse of Rhode Island are doing a preliminary investigation. If they determine these communications did occur, Graham said it would be appropriate to call a joint select committee. "The Congress is not fake," Graham said. "There are real members of Congress up here, Republicans and Democrats, who love our country and are going to make sure that checks and balances that have been in place for 200 years work, even when the president is in your own party." Former national security adviser Michael Flynn resigned Monday night for telling Vice President Mike Pence he had not spoken about sanctions with a Russian ambassador when they had, in fact, discussed the matter. During the campaign, Trump called on Russia to hack Clinton's emails and said he would consider lifting sanctions on Russia, positions that differentiate him from congressional Republicans. Tennessee Sen. Bob Corker joined Graham in saying that Congress and the American people both need more information on the connection between the Trump administration and Russia. Corker added the White House needs to stabilize itself to deal with more important issues. "That is the elephant in the room that has got to be dealt with in the most appropriate way," Corker said Wednesday morning on MSNBC's Morning Joe. "The American people need to understand, we need to understand. And it needs to be dealt with quickly, and we need to get it behind us." He said it would be 'appropriate' for Flynn to testify before Congress to clear the air. "If I were the people leading the Trump effort at the White House, I would want to make sure, with all of the suspicion, that everybody fully understood what has taken place. Otherwise, maybe there's a problem that obviously goes much deeper than what we now suspect," he said. Graham said if there was a relationship between the Trump campaign and the Russians, "it begins to explain some of his behavior." "It's OK for Trump to disagree with Lindsey Graham and other Republicans on how to handle Russia," Graham said. "It would not be OK to have the Trump campaign receiving assistance from the Russians. That would be a game changer."" Politico Lindsey O. Graham fucked around with this message at 05:17 on Feb 19, 2017 |
