  1. That's odd, because 40 years ago the aclu fought for the rights of nazis to match in skoki.

    Seems pretty tolerant of abbhorent political views to me.

    Well them , rural preppers and back to nature folk in general. Of course there will be that transitional period when machinery is breaking down and you will have people swarming out of the cities destroying everything in their path. It all depends on how rapidly things happen. Emp ? Bioweapons ? Financial Breakdown ? Nuclear exchange ? Democrats win the midterms ?

    All sorts of ways to really damage society.

    The only 6 year old here would be you.

    During the 1980s, the idea of a dam reemerged. The National People's Congress approved the dam in 1992: out of 2,633 delegates, 1,767 voted in favour, 177 voted against, 664 abstained, and 25 members did not vote.[24] Construction started on December 14, 1994.[25] The dam was expected to be fully operational in 2009, but additional projects, such as the underground power plant with six additional generators, delayed full operation until May 2012

    It doesn't even have the world record anymore.

    The Three Gorges Dam is the world's largest power station in terms of installed capacity (22,500 MW). In 2014, the dam generated 98.8 terawatt-hours (TWh) and had the world record, but was surpassed by the Itaipú Dam, which set the new world record in 2016, producing 103.1 TWh.

    Seems hydro maxed out in 2016. I guess there is also no more water for hydro left anywhere...

    Yeah because accounting for a flat 24% of the worlds generating capacity with a long term growth rate of less 1/2% of base annually isn't maxed out.

    Hey are you going to bite the bullet and pedal to operate your computer, read books by candle light or do you just figure you will be privileged enough to make other people live that way ?

    Solar, wind, and batteries aren't technical issues, I am thoroughly convinced the people that react so badly to anything that points out flaws are operating under religious belief and couldn't calculate RMS power if you handed them the formulas and told them the values of the variables.

    If you go back a few years here, you will find the usual idiots saying that batteries won't be needed because you will just be transmitting power from areas where it's sunny.

    Now that that boats sailed they are shilling like there's no tomorrow for the battery makers.

    Makes the argument that eugenics really was a good idea.

    You mandate renewables like solar and wind that have well known problems such as outages that happen whenever it gets cloudy or the wind has a lull. In solars case it also doesn't work at night, which is when most people will be plugging in the electric cars they were forced to buy.

    So now the grid needs a giant set of batteries to cover the problems of the ill considered generating technology. Then with a straight face you have reporters that can't tell the difference between power and energy talk about how much of the costs that shouldn't have been there in the first place, the new project saves and what a wonder it is for grid stabilization when reliable power generation would have made the added stabilization unneeded in the first place.

    You need to talk to Dan Rather, Rolling Stone, and Time Magazine about their editorial choices.
