steady rate of high power for one. except for hydro and geothermal, but those doesn't fit or scale everywhere.
solar and wind are great to supply additional power, to cover spikes, and a large residential setup will stabilize the old grid. however they don't have a constant high power output and have to be built at 30-50% over capacity to get to the minimum useful outputs.
that said most homes should have a 3-5 kw solar setup that feed right back into the grid. The power generated would be enough to run their home air-conditioning setups in the hot summer months and a bit of electric heating in the winter. if 50% of homes in a given neighborhood loop had that the spikes would even out during the summer.
Large scale residential solar deployment though can end the price imbalance. As you need solar at the exact time the sun is out. If your solar unit generates 80-120% of your air conditoning power needs.
That will help with demand and load balance spikes. At least until we get Mr fusion that runs on fecal matter.
Your grandfather did those things to survive. Refrigerators didn't exist you had ice boxes may e if you were wealthy. So food wouldn't keep people canned food to preserve it so they could eat. You want fresh chicken you had to slaughter it, or buy it from a butcher who recently slaughtered it.
They didn't clothing stores like we do know, or grocery stores. You want fresh fruits they were only available in season.
If he didn't shovel coal in his furnace he would freeze to death. Many did from that or from carbon monoxide from said furnace. Hell indoor plumbing only became a thing in the 1920's. At least on a Practical level. Most areas didn't get electritcy until after WW2.
You will quickly figure out how to kill to survive if you find yourself starving with a knife in hand.
You have learned more by the time you are 18 than he did by the time he was 40. At least for book knowledge. Street smarts and expirence not included. We are teaching calculus to high schoolers. Half of his high school class wouldn't have had a 5th grade reading level in today world.
Standards change. Accept all of them and not just the tiny fraction you can see. Or in the words of an iwa jima vet I once knew. I fought so we can disagree. That is the right. For that I will never forget him.
Your eye muscles are fine. What degrades is your lenses. That is why corrective optics and laser surgery work. Like the Hubble they adjust the optics of light going in to clear up errors
You blink to to wash away dirt but with organic lenses you also have to replace the cells themselves. Cells don't always replicate properly.
Some of those binary blobs though can be useful to move such a way. I recently had to merge, name match , rename and update a few thousand files on windows. I had to manually move them to a unique folder for initial seperation but the I typed ls -name:export-csv l..\list.csv
I then was able to use excel to match file names to what I wanted them to be renamed as and the used another csv to do batch renaming of the files in seconds with the csv containing the files to be renamed and their new file names.
That would have been much harder to do in bash.
While powershell is a bit wordy (think AppleScript wordy)and binary blobs can cause other issues it really isn't a bad set of tools. Better than dos cmd.
No Santa Clara county will just borrow one of the FBI units and not tell people it was used. You aren't being paranoid enough.
Personally I am waiting for a really high profile case to be dropped because of it. Right now all you have to do is force the police to disclose how they tracked you and they start dropping cases.
A BMW sells for a different price in California than Michigan. You can go to Michigan and pay a different price and transport it yourself, or just buy it locally. This is done all the time in the USA. Different states having different prices. What is so special about Europe dealing with it?
This isnt a big deal. You then have to pay again to reregister it in your jurisdiction.
improving poorly rated customer service runs contrary to the comcast business model of doubling your bill after your 2 year deal is up.
I dropped cable because my $80 a month bill went to $160. There is no other isp in my area, so comcast can charge whatever they want. If comcast wants to improve customer service they first have to stop raping their customers.
Warehouses are slow to adapt. And run on low margins 20-30 years is more reasonable. Because warehouse rarely move and will require massive overhaul. Hell barcoding is only deployed to 40-50% of warehouses. That alone should tell you how low margin warehouses operate. Barcoding with software and hardware is $10k, another 10k to deploy it, yet most warehouses can't afford that.
Not true. Electricity can wear out. The time frame is much longer but it does happen.
Electricity has resistance. resistance adds heat. The sun adds heat. hot,cold, hot, cold, that changes the temperance of the metals, making them brittle. Granted it takes a while. but over time electric cables wear out. Then you have the insulation materials which ear out faster, when those break you get shorts.
That isn't even talking about erosion and physical damage from being outside.
So yes solar panels can wear out. You might get 30-50 years out of one but it will happen.
If you have to go to a third party community that may or may not have updates then your mode is broken. Xda is nice if you are modding it, etc. however if you want it to work without spending an hour doing so then it isn't the right place. And yes the last time I tried and failed to install an xda android rom my device was trashed. It was my fault I missed one of the 50 perquisite steps required.
Hell there are days when I think it would be faster to compile android from source on the device than use those roms.
You should read how the bible treats women. It isn't any different from sharia.
Females are considered second class citizens in all monotheist religions. Fortunately the USA and most of Europe is made of descendants of various pagan religions that Christianity had to adapt to. Christianity had to add local customs. Things like Christmas, Halloween, new years, Some of those pagann religions had women as equals. It took centuries. But it happened.
Exactly. The big trick way back when was a limited written history. When craving into stone tablets you only hit the highlights and none of the gritty details. So people ended up duplicating each other's work hundreds if not thousands of times before paper copies started getting created. And even once we had paper the data was so far separate from each other that compiling and knowing what was in the complications took another couple of thousand years.
Even today you can't get all of human knowledge easily. you have to duplicate someone else's work a lot of the time. Just look at Operating Systems and the not invented here ideology in software. And that is with easily transmitted data.
Useful things like making weapons, and making beer got passed down verbally, as those would save lives. but spoken and memory communication is at best a hit or miss affair. It is why I wonder why we want to talk to computers as it is a horrible method of data transmittal.
I don't have any issues with my iphone6. okay I have one issue. at work and only at work I have to turn off and then turn on the wifi to get it to connect. At home, at a dozen other places no problems. but at work i have issues.
Then again it could be an app thing. there could be one app that is crashing her phone. I know if I am at work and I try to use a wifi only app it can crash the app. but if I turn off and on the wifi it works fine. But only with my works Access Point. Any where else I don't have that issue.

Take a look at hong Kong airport. They built an artificial island.
Buildings cause sudden changes in wind direction which is more dangerous than speed from one.

When it comes to older generations thinking younger generations are whiney, lazy, idiots sample size doesn't matter.
Old people almost always think that. I am not sure if it is a product of getting old, jealousy of the young, or what.
But you can read newspapers from 100 years ago that had the same articles in them.

My macbook is from 2009 and supports the latest osx just fine. Sure I don't have some features due to lack of hardware,but speed isn't an issue.
I have owned three I phones since 2008 averaging three years a phone.
At work last year we upgraded to windows 7 and windows 2008 server. That how far behind ERP software is.
Can you tell when looking at a normal webpage which ads are legit and which ones aren't?
The answer is of course no.
All advertising is malware.

Not sure of the brand but my mother's microwave was bought in 89. Still works just fine. So that is 26 years. Massive beast too.

yet how often do you actually reboot? Once a year? twice?
Tin foil is beneath government budget levels. We must now gold plate the interior of our space ships.
How stupid must your plan be if politicians actually call it stupid?

Enlightenment took Christians 200 years and they still aren't done.
Muslims are 500 years behind Christianity. You have another 7-800 years before they will improve.
Enlightment was fought by Christians and still is.
