Look, it is good that we have solar and wind. But when a volcano erupts, esp one like Yellowstone, solar/wind fail right when you need them. So, if we add geo-thermal, hydro, AND nukes to the mix, we then have decent baseload power.
Not if we will quit trying to buy this before we use it all up. Then the remaining 5 % would be cheap and trivial to bury. Best of all, by combining nuke with solar, we can solve the co2 issue.
yes, Eddie, like nearly all those that have been cracked, runs windows and outsourced to India, some parts. I'm not certain, where, but I will put money down, that India has access to the POS and handle the Sys. Ad.
Some of you will scream that this is racists. You are right, but not on my part, but on yours.
The fact is, that when you pay somebody 1/10 of what you pay normally, and you have enemies that have easy access to these employees, well, all they have to do is offer 10-20x what you were paying. IOW, these companies are paying Indians below $10,000 due to India manipulating their money downwards.
Now, Russians who have easy access to India, come along and offer various indians $100,000 to leave a back door, at which point, the Russians will put in a NEW backdoor and remove the old one.
What is crazy is that fact that so many ignore this situation. And it is easy to spot. Just got to get over your racists attitude and simply copy the VPN streams from India.
Actually, Volvo has been on the road for over a year and have struck multiple ppl and cars.
That is why I mention that the court being in China is the big issue, because Volvo us not ready. They and Uber are simply counting on Chinese courts to protect them.
Nope. Volvo has said that they will cover the indemnity during AP time. The real issue is that Volvo is chinese gov corp owned. As such, any lawsuit will take place, in china, in gov owned court.
Look, ppl have this wrong. Volvo is Chinese owned. Once Uber helps Volvo succeed with ap, then Volvo will sell cars to Chinese owned companies who will then set up in western cities and control the traffic.
Volvo said they would back the cars. But Volvo is now owned by china gov owned company.
So when Volvo, with a level 2 rating slams into somebody ( as it has done multiple times ), the law suit will have to be moved to China. And who thinks that Chinese gov will be fair?
Actually, you have the leaf out there, and truthfully, you can buy them cheap. Though there is a real reason for that.
Instead, wait for a couple of years and look at cars like the M 3. As it is, German car makers are moving to EVs, and want to compete with Tesla. That is going to drive prices down.
We own a Tesla and a highlander. We rarely drive these more than 200 miles in a day. As such, the Tesla is nearly always in range. When we go to the mountains, we currently have to check about route. Only once, did we alter our way to hit the Dillon SC. And in the next year, Tesla double the chargers in America. Basically, we will always have access to free superchargers. In addition, there are now over 13,000 public charger sites in America, not including RV parks. These are now growing at the rate of more than 1000 new sites each year.
IOW, arguing that it is inconvenient is bs.
But, it is a fact that in the next couple of years the resale value of luxury ice vehicles will be destroyed.
So many here are arguing against going with EVs. The arguments are varied. But most are missing a very important point that few car makers and no car dealer will tell you. German car makers are busy trying to compete with Tesla and losing ground. Their sales are plummeting on the models that compete with MS and MX. Some guy looked into why BMW is now advertising against Tesla M3 , with good car bad car data, and found that their 300 series sales have also started plummeting.
German car makers are working furiously trying to get real EVs going. This will mean that resale values of used luxury ICE cars will do a massive drop in value. In.fact, once M3, and MY hit the markets, it is expected that cars that sold for 25k and above will lose their resale value. The real question is not can you afford to move to EVs, but can you afford to lose massive amounts of money? Obviously, if you drive a Kia, don't worry. You have 5 years before your resale values be hit. Otoh, if you bought a caddy, BMW, Lexus, etc in the last 4 years, you should be concerned unless you are the type to drive it into the ground.
You are in luck. The bolt and M3 are available within a year for 35k. And considering that the average accord price is around 30k, well, not much.difference.

Baloney. Ft st vrain ran fine except for the back end. The reactor was perfect.
Reprocessing it in that fashion is worthless. Far better to enact trans atomic and flible and burn up the waste.

To be fair, nuke also received massive subsidies in the git-go . In addition, it needs a lot more, esp on gen 4 reactors.
Worst idea going. Far better to use it up and then bury the remaining 5%

These are not shingles. Imagine the 4x8 sheet of plywood being replaced with an integrated unit. No tar paper. No shingles.

and the point Im making is that they don't in any way, shape, or form, other than making sure that they will keep their money.
Uh, Pennsylvania has no mountains. They have some mole hills.
Nope. Volvo is behind, not ahead. And Volvo trucks are not Volvo cars. Volvo cars are owned by Chinese, which is where all legal issues will occur.

Yeah, that was the calculation. IOW, they used the fact that coal provides less than 40% of the nighttime baseload power.
Ok, that will be next year. Tesla M 3 start at the average price of a sold car in America, and less than average in most of Europe.
Huh. So Ontario gets much colder than -40c on a regular basis? Because those living in Norway swear by Tesla on these.
What route is used for your 500 km trip? IOW, from where to where?
