over the highways makes more sense.
However, if the median is say rocks, or concrete, then by all means go for it. After all, animals really do not live there to any great degree.
BUT, doing an automated install on parking lots really makes a lot of sense. It can be set up so that the cars are under the panels. That protects them from the elements. In addition, light->heat now becomes light->electricity.
Interestingly, I am going to guess that asphalt gives off a lot of chemicals as it heats up. That would include CO2, but also things like methane. After all, asphalt is simply LONG CARBON hydrated chains. heat provides the energy needed to break it up.
Please, for the love of god, would you ppl QUIT DOING SOLAR FARMS. Building this over land is about as stupid as it gets. Do it over parking lots or roofs. Those sites convert light into heat. Lands convert light into sugars. If you are worried about AGW, then you need to reduce the FUCKING HEAT. If you are not worried about it, then quit subsidizing solar.
Fucking idiots.
coal plants ARE more efficient. However, China does not turn on the pollution controls on their plants (it would cost them 5% of the energy). ALL of The coal plants are built close to cities to minimize the energy losses. The gov does not care about the citizens. As such, by China switching to EVs, things are going to get WORSE, NOT BETTER.
Now, as to America, we currently buy the majority of EVs made in the west. We buy more than Europe. In addition, when Model 3 hits the market, the majority will go to America, as will the majority of MY. Both are highly sought after around the world, and it will be America buying 1/2 of these or more.
And I have to say that I love our 2013 tesla model S. I was just in it upgrading the lights to those by abstract ocean. And yes, I am American.
they buy stripped cells from Panasonic. These are then assembled into various levels of packing and have loads of sensors to react to temps, heat, etc.
Obviously with Tesla have the TOP RATED CAR BY OWNERS, means that they are above and beyond other companies. Year after year, they come in tops, even though the early ratings of each model is low. Right now, they have a manufacturing that equals what GM and the rest have, only it is done differently. They are in the process of moving the final assembly line to being 100% robotics which will make them churn out 3-10x the cars that the next do.
And if this was not the case, then why is China pushing this DIRECTLY at Tesla? China does not care about the others since all of the new car start-ups are in silicon valley, and not in Detroit, Japan, Europe, etc. They all want what Tesla has.
advocate for your kind? What exactly is our 'kind'? If you mean for Americans, esp. considering that we funded them, then yeah.
OTOH, if you are like Bill O'Reilly and this is about keep whites supremacy, then nope.
racists? nope. Nationalistic? ABSOLUTELY.
Everybody expects America to NOT be nationalistic, while we are the LEAST nationalistic, with the most open borders.
It is killing us.
actually, local gov are BEGGING Google. The issue is that the GOP at the state and national levels are fighting it for their fascist friends.
However, the google fiber is a money maker, while the indian wifi is a free give-away. BIG DIFFERENCE.
The pollution is from electricity plants since they run 85-88% coal ( and not 75 like one part of gov claims ).
EVs are actually going to make things worse on pollution, but allow them to massively oil imports.
BTW, it is not foreign brown ppl. That is where the new google CEO is from. He is simply shutting down projects in America and transferring them to India.
there are ppl on this site that have still not heard of BO, and others that read about it about for the first time with your post.
They just need to understand that it will be a while before humans launch and that SpaceX and Boeing really are all that we will have for the next 4-5 years.
well, BO's new shep. capsule will not work for orbital work. As such, they are not in the running on this.
Likewise, SNC is not developing a crewed version, at this time. They are strictly focused on cargo.
It would be nice to see Dragon V2 work on other launchers. In particular, Atlas or Delta.
I suspect that Dragon will be ready much sooner than cst-100.

And those Intel ppl were correct.
China has over 20 EV car makers and not a one worth a damn.
If you look carefully, they are targeting only 1 company with this:Tesla.
Battery and car manufacturing.
The pollution is from electricity plants since they run 85-88% coal ( and not 75 like one part of gov claims ). EVs are actually going to make things worse on pollution, but allow them to massively oil imports.
Musk has given up IP/patents pertaining to EVs. He is not giving up manufacturing IP, which is what he is loaded with.
where ever he builds will be sell out. No sense allowing China to wipe them out.
BTW, it is not foreign brown ppl. That is where the new google CEO is from. He is simply shutting down projects in America and transferring them to India.
while charging America 100/month.
but extend free wifi in his native India, along with sending most job openings to India.
Way to go google.
Seriously, they can do it for him, just have to find the right ppl.
How funny. Tesla is the furthest ahead and put all those companies to shame for not doing anything. Now, the old car makers are way behind.
No, that is illegal. In fact, that is exactly why the other half of this lawsuit is about that.
and yet, their abort proved successful.
there are ppl on this site that have still not heard of BO, and others that read about it about for the first time with your post.
They just need to understand that it will be a while before humans launch and that SpaceX and Boeing really are all that we will have for the next 4-5 years.
also, note that was for CERTIFIED flight.
They will likely send up crews before the full certification.
well, BO's new shep. capsule will not work for orbital work. As such, they are not in the running on this.
Likewise, SNC is not developing a crewed version, at this time. They are strictly focused on cargo.
It would be nice to see Dragon V2 work on other launchers. In particular, Atlas or Delta. I suspect that Dragon will be ready much sooner than cst-100.
personally, I am far more concerned about SpaceX solving their 2nd stage issue. Hopefully, they really have found it.
