Hey buddy, you should have further insight into what you’re commenting on maybe before you make highly regarded statements.

I know a few things about PV equipment. Nearly all modern inverters have communication systems for mointoring the system’s output so you can determine whether panels stop working or if the inverter is on the fritz. Nobody except maybe a private homeowner would want an inverter that doesn’t communicate. Also what would the Chinese government get from disrupting PV equipment? No grid is going down because PV isn’t working. Remember the sun isn’t always shining. As of now these alligations are just that, alligations.

I think I’m getting conflicting anwsers. Another person says you can melt certain types of plastic.

Ha, hey ERCOT, we gotta clean these panels every night, takes 15 hours.

Follow up: why are soda bottles hard to recycle? You suggest it has something to do with their ability to hold pressure. Why does that make them hard to recycle?

Nah, if I understood the article correctly they need to mix a bit of the pyrolysis material with a lot of new material and make a product to claim it’s made recycled. They can’t just burn the material and claim they’re making products from recycled plastic.

The plaintiffs in Los Angeles said the soda companies were claiming that the bottles were continuously recyclable, when in reality, plastic bottles can be recycled only once, if at all.

How’s that work? Like how can someone tell a bottle has been made with recycled plastic?

So that means they have $0 of cybertrucks nobody wants?

You don’t understand Texas’s powergrid. It’s a free market, there is little planning or foresight. Large scale power production is provided by hundreds, possibly thousands, of independent producers who can turn their production on as they see fit, in other words, when it’s profitable. Therefore backup generation for solar is already present. If there’s not enough, then the market will dictate how much to build and where. That’s how it works in Texas.

instead of dumping the volatility on ancillary services, which get less revenue, because of their off-time, accommodating wind and solar.

Free market, they can deal with it. Yes, it’s a dumb system, but thems the rules in Texas.

A mandate like this makes room for reliable energy rollout, basically more support for natural gas, and presumably batteries, instead of just crowding out the preferred energy types.

This bill is clearly designed to stifle renewable production in favor of fossil energy. Requiring one mode of production to have or purchase backup generation isn’t fair in the current market system. Do away with the market system first before putting a thumb on the scale.

Also preferred energy types? Energy types with the least amount of emissions should be preferred. Not gas, not coal, not oil, or whatever else Texas wants to burn.

The planet could handle more with modern tech and conservation practices.

I dunno man, I bet the current population trajectory plus improvements in efficiency/ conservation with a lot less capitalism will likely be sufficient. 90% just seems like a lot more work than necessary.

Okay Thanos, that’s enough for today. But you may be excited to know that birth rates across the globe are falling to the point that a population decline is in the works.

I’m struggling to take a lot of these answers seriously. You really think that way about yourself?

I’ve heard good things about buckwheat

That’s so eerie

So they were pushed back to South America once, why can’t they be pushed back again? How’d they get past Panama if there’s a sterile fly production/release facility there?

Is that not true for LFP?

Another reason Slate went with NMC was its superior energy density. LFP packs are durable, known for their fast-charging abilities and use cheaper raw materials. But an NMC pack that takes up the same amount of space will generally deliver more range.

Aside from energy density, what other pros/cons do NMC batteries have? Also how much more energy can they store per unit volume than LFP?

Do note that CCS to NACS adapters should only be used on a supercharger, never on an AC charger.

Thank you, I did not know that.

Okay, so let’s pretend the a zygote is an incest zygote

Nope, I’m out. Bye

Okay no, that’s not how it works at all. The differences in DNA between cancer cell and non-cancerous cell are negligable when compared to the differences between mother DNA and zygote/fetal DNA. If those fetal cells escaped the placenta or uterus, the mother’s immune system would attack them because they’re not recognized as “self.”

Sure, it’s the mother’s egg, until it isn’t. It quickly becomes something else biologically at the moment of fertilization.

Again, the mother isn’t making the cells, the zygote/fetal cells are making themselves.

It’s clear you have some beliefs that are not backed up by science. You also did not understand my analogies. I’m sure you’ll eventually learn this stuff in school.
