None of that has been tried in a court since the supreme Court ruling. And insurrection isn't even one of the charges in the indictment.

We can't have a lawsuit about that till a ruling is handed down saying he did any of those things

Which the Republicans knew, so they just had to delay until he won again and can pardon/dismiss/fire Jack smith/etc

Anus is connected to the mouth. Urethra isn't a through hole I don't believe....could be wrong though.

It's even better than that. There's a vsauce video that talks about what a hole really is and then abstracts the human body down to its holes. I think there's like 7 iirc. ~~2 nipples~~, ~~2 tear ducts~~ 4 holes in the eye near the tear ducts, 2 nostrils and your mouth

Edit: correct holes lol

Ohhhhhh I assumed they were flying to an island

I agree, but off grid solar requires a lot more panels and personal infrastructure owned by the customer than grid tied solar. and a storage solution for night time and winter and cloudy days.

A typical house isn't going off grid and maintaining a worry free electric schedule without a minimum of 25,000$ of panels, mounts, inverters, batteries, BMS, cabling, installation, and permits.

To be fair, the cost is still less than the amount of time the system will last so economically is can be viable but who has 25,000$ just sitting around...you have to be able to install it yourself to save enough money to really even think about doing it.

I am on your side, but we should be focusing on storage technology right now because solar is honestly really advanced at this point. Once those technologies can work together all the arguments against solar that make sense disappear.

Because grid level power delivery is about FAR more than just raw wattage numbers. Momentum of spinning turbines is extremely important to the grid. The grid relies on generation equipment maintaing an AC frequency of 60 hz or 50hz or whatever a country decides on. Changing loads throughout the day literally add an amount of drag to the entire grid and it can drag the frequency down. The inverse can also happen. If you have fluctuating wind or cloud cover you can bring the whole grid down if you can't instantly spin up other methods to pick up the slack.

reliable consistent power delivery is absolutely critical when it comes to running the grid effectively and that is something that solar and wind are bad at

Ideally we will be able to use those technologies to fill grid level storage (batteries, pumped hydro) to supply 100% of our energy needs in the not too distant future but until then we desperately need large, consistent, clean power generation.

Depends on how souls actually work at a quantum level, some people, like NDGT, believe they don't exist.

but if they do then there could be replicant drift from one generation to the next.

Hell honestly, you might not need something as profound as a soul to observe a replicant drift over time throughout a lineage. No matter how identical they are, 2 clones will have different life experiences ranging from things as minor as seeing events from 2 physically different locations in time or space up to something as major as experiencing important life events differently. I don't believe it's possible to stay the exact same when there's so many differences in one life lived to another.

I bet xt prime wouldn't even recognize himself in xt 24.

Yeah Honda and Toyota are goated. Toyota recently is falling hard tho. Be careful if you're in the market for one soon, 2022 and up Toyota is losing their reputation quickly

I always wondered how ford hybrids were, my mom has a regular fusion that has been a champ for 250k miles so far.

Their volt program was excellent. Gen 1 volts are tanks. I have a gen 1, and gen2. The gen2 has 1 big issues with a free recall to cover it. Still a great car.

Bolt is good too so far. I got one with a replaced battery from the recall.

[–] DogWater 1 points 6 days ago

Get a used bolt with the 4k tax credit, you can check if the recall was done to replace the battery and if it was you can get a 2018 or 2019 bolt with a new battery which includes a new warranty for like 10k.
