Maybe add links to data sources and separate items that are objectively negative from those that someone may prefer? (i.e., reliability being low is always bad, left or right leaning being bad is based on individual perspectives.

Economy of scale matters, so does practicality. Which one is generally lasting longer per number of charges and what’s the long term viability of both given the time they were build and the available tech at that time? I totally understand the greater availability of sodium vs lithium. However, will it last? Last time I read much about it, reliability was weak, charge capacity over time dropped drastically, and failures were high. (It has been a couple of years, so things may be changing. )

Something new and shiney can be nifty, but past that, what is this? It seems like an expensive hood ornament that will rust in the rain. Lithium is expensive and toxic to mine, but so are all metals to some extent, and this has plenty.

It seems like it’s buying something 25% off on a $100 thing that won’t last well. Sure, you saved $25 once, but you’re buying 3 of them in the same time frame.

Doesn’t California have some insane battery too?

Typically, this means:

1. You’re sending too much frivilous crap mail.
2. You’re viewed as a time cost with low benefit.
3. Your organization is sending too much crap mail, and no one is reading much of anything.

You control 2 of those. The first two have the same solution, send less mail, and label your crap messages as such. (We all have crap mail we need to send to meet technical obligations, but label it to be easily filtered.)

I just linked it to show the rare piece of bipartisanship. I agree DLST should be done away with. As to which schedule to keep, I find it to be 6 of one and half dozen of another. The difference is just another nit pick someone will find excuses to argue over.

You realize there are places without it, and they’re fine, correct?

Anti-DST… The almost accidental political bridge. Kinda funny actually: https://www.reuters.com/world/us/us-senate-approves-bill-that-would-make-daylight-savings-time-permanent-2023-2022-03-15/

Look at the names of the quotes. Both sides are commenting on how dumb it is.

Then the House got involved.

I’m sure it means something to someone. I’m just not that someone.

Carpet for your only whole $99.

Technology, understanding of false confessing, and a general improvement in process since 1975. I think this is a success story. Sure, mistakes were made. Welcome to human history. However, people kept trying, kept learning, and kept listening. I’ve never heard of that type of action occurring anywhere else. (Admittedly, I don’t really follow law) I’m betting sudden forgiveness decades later isn’t common.

Calm down E E E.

Admittedly, with hind sight being 2020 (pun intended), a Clinton era Democrat spouting party line rhetoric wind bag BS versus someone who abandoned people to die in an embassy wasn’t exactly a clean choice.

Quite often with American politics… I’ll take an unknown just to roll a random crap shoot over what I’ve got. TBH, this year wouldn’t be much different if the RNC had literally chosen anyone else after Afghanistan.

And not all of them are house trained.

For the price of a burger meal, you can make a full meal with on sale bits that are 1000% better too. I’ve seen steaks at $7 for a small serving from a grocery chain. Grab that, some frozen veggies, and a bag of potatoes. You can go a long way on the price of a fast food meal nowadays.

A package of skin on chicken thighs doesn’t even need an oil, just throw the skins in the pan. Large bags of rice keep nicely in 5 gal buckets.

He’s right, though. The mistake of the 1930s was appeasement, lack of involvement, and a reduction of military industrial capacity. Too bad he advocates for 2 of those 3, and even on the third, he supports consolidation versus distribution and diversity of power.

Do you have any extreme conditions that may affect your cluster?

If everything is standard, just go mid to low grade and raid it. If heat, radiation, reliability, or energy usage are funded concerns, then the answer changes.

True, except, we gave ourselves room to be more than 40% wrong. We change. Not well, we’re not even good at it.

Heee Hee Heeee

I’m in awe of the direct links to anything. However, man, people assume the top result of DDG an impressive amount.

I will look around, thank you.
