Everyone would like to replace the diesel generators with something carbon free, and high-priced island economies are good places to experiment with renewables. I'm assuming that over the next decade or so, all roofing materials will have photovoltaic collection included by default. If you need 'shaded roofing' for some spot that never sees the sun, you will have to special-order it.
But if parts of Hawaii need baseload power over what their rooftops can provide, they might consider ocean thermal: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
The problem with the runner-up Canary and Baja runner-up sites is the rather low altitude in comparison to Maunakea, which wastes the potential of such a huge instrument. China's Qinghai Plateau, on the other hand, is also in the northern hemisphere and has qualified large telescope sites at over 17,000 feet. Not only would the seeing at such an altitude be incomparable, but China can easily lock out the Greens, who were the real instigators of the anti-telescope movement in Hawaii. They could easily shift their opposition movement from Hawaii to Europe, just as it was earlier moved to Hawaii from Arizona.
No, it was the other way around: a $1.5 billion project funded entirely by an international consortium, opposed by "natives" wheedling for a handout. I hope it gets built in China, with Hawaii getting nothing.
There is a kernel of seriousness to this: the problem with Hawaiian solar is that there just isn't enough acreage on Kauai, Maui, Molokai and Oahu that you can pave over with solar collectors without it ruining the environmental esthetics. It's not Nevada, where there are large flat, dry areas that nobody cares about. The Big Island has the same geothermal potential as Iceland, but that possibility has already been howled down on the same grounds of vague territorial sacredness that is currently being used to drive the astronomers out of the state.
You can't build infrastructure in Hawaii. Those pricey diesel generators will be belching carbon forever.
My town has several arches like this one, including some that are equally likely to collapse in geologically bad weather. What we mean by this is a soaking midwinter rain followed by a hard freeze. We had a rockslide on one of our pinnacles earlier this winter. There will certainly be others. The next one to go could be a large block that has been cracking from the edge of our largest sinkhole for several years. The crack is steadily getting wider.
This is not about smartphones and computers, although right-to-repair would benefit every owner of these devices. It's a battle going on in every farm state over being able to repair farm equipment.
Now we have a public database of exploits that can be sealed. Start hiring Americans again, even if it means going so far as recalling developers over forty, and get these vulnerabilities fixed.
When was the last time you went to college? 1982? I suspect the lack of current data is on your side.
For me it was 1969. Did you know that college students had sex back then? With each other even, and no Junior Anti-Sex League campus tribunal to stop them? And lots and lots of it, too.
You don't need a lot, and there's *lots* of hills near Lake Constance. Some positively pointy (;-))
I have relatives in that area. It's a pretty and expensive part of Germany, so being able to put the pumped storage offshore is a neat idea and would probably save money.
I have always wondered: for land-based wind turbines, has anyone thought of building a flywheel storage unit into the base of each tower, just under the ground surface for safety? This would add up to a lot of storable power for a large windfield.
If users perceive Uber to be mistreating its drivers or in some other way being a bad actor, they can use Lyft instead. If users object to a city's single and protected medallion cab service, they can go to hell.

THIS factor, not economic theoretics, is the primary reason we need private space programs.
All of the imperial units were designed to fit human scale. The foot, for one, began as the actual length of some king's foot. What our all-wise ancestors didn't realize is that their imperial units developed without being related to each other, the factor that makes life so much easier for metric users. Knowing that your one-liter soda bottle, if filled with water, weighs one kilogram, is one of the superpowers that French chefs make use of. Our recipes, meanwhile, are full of teaspoons and tablespoons and fluid ounces that are hell to convert to each other.

Fortunately, because the air over Phoenix is about forty percent news-'n-weather helicopters at any given time, your conspiracy chopper won't get very far.
User modifiability of Caller ID was put in as a convenience for businesses which want to have all their phone numbers identify as the same identity. But it's such an inconvenience to everyone else that we will have no choice but to freeze caller identities to prevent criminal spoofing.
Force them out of the factories and you will force them into child prostitution and drug dealing. These children will work one way or another or they will not eat! Wish people would understand how the world really works!
Child prostitution is for lamos living in tourist-trap towns. Todays' children forced out of work sign up with Al Shabaab.

"One of the big motivators for piling tons of stuff onto one truck is because each vehicle needs an expensive driver."
No, it's because freight containers come in two standard sizes, with road trucks being sized accordingly.
If I want more decimal places, I can google it.

Probably the same people who thought that Apollo 13 was fiction.

And apparently, it's got puffins. For those of you have not seen this species, seagulls designed by a committee.

At Home Depot you can find the thiotimoline right next to the gender fluid.

Fuck you and your prison culture. You're stupid racist fucks.
Oh look, a European. The student quarter you used to have good times in is now a refugee no-go zone. Enjoy.

I see only too clearly what today's problem is.

they do this to screwdriver handles too so ppl don't use it has a dildo
Is this is true then Orange Is the New Black loses a significant plot point.
I'm not suggesting no Caller ID, but that Caller ID information be legally frozen when a line is provisioned and not be modifiable by the user.
See what I mean? The imperial system doesn't even have an internally consistent definition of 'cup' and 'gallon'.
Your fake bolded insertions would make my real story into a fake story.
The TLC police force is totally legal in NYC, and operates as a special-purpose police force for taxi regulations. It has a long history of thuggish abuse:
