  1. Re:Solar's problem is political not technological on MIT Report Says Current Tech Enables Future Terawatt-Scale Solar Power Systems · · Score: 0

    no

    established utilities meet demand 24x7, while residential solar can't do that for most the country. it's simple engineering, residential solar "isn't there" yet. And those who do have it are parasites since they are subsidized on the backs of the rest of us taxpayers.

    The likely answer is to never have residential solar at all for 70% or more the country, but rather have large collection grids in wasteland. The enviro whackos will fight that too, but those wanks had better start considering what the alternative is

    No, it's called "You don't understand the Intel product line", that's a feeble processor for business use.

    Wrong about my employer, our accounting system is elaborate software on AIX (with various Oracle on Linux DBMS backend) that also needs very powerful client.

    The i5 chip alone pulls 70 watts in my desktop.
