This is the problem with all the over 50 Dems. Their policy is 15 years out of date. They not only ignore Trump has changed everything, but the under 35s are looking for different things.
he has the kamala harris thing of spending his whole life preparing to run for president in a political climate that ended 15 years ago. kinda sad as a personal story but not my problem.
Josh Shapiro believes he is uniquely suited to win over Trump voters—but he’ll need to overcome distrust among some in his own party first, Tim Alberta reports: theatln.tc/mR9AHSG4

How can we get Trump on a European/Asian train
President Trump, apparently enamored by the pint-sized Kei cars he saw during his recent trip to Japan, has paved the way for them to be made and sold in the US despite concerns

I stopped in the local party store and the very Trumpy owner, out of the blue complained that his health insurance was going to cost 600$ more a month for him and his wife. No one paying for health insurance out of pocket is going to forget.
"people won't worry about how expensive health care is once we deal with how expensive gas, food, and housing are" is the kind of irrational optimism previously found only in those 32 year old middle managers who think they could win a set against Serena Williams
“.. Some GOP strategists .. voiced confidence that by the time the midterms roll around, health insurance won’t be voters’ top concern, especially if the Trump administration can meaningfully lower the cost of food, gas and housing.

Being an elder GenXer, I remember the birth of grunge. I remember my friends waxing nostalgic about the rock of the 70's and 80's and decided I wouldn't cement myself into classic rock forever. I switch on 89X the CAN alt-rock station and never turned back.
i love the clash, the kinks, the who, and the buzzcocks.
so why wouldn’t i love green day? be reasonable.

Lidar stopped being prohibitively expensive 5 years ago but Elon kept lying about it because he made a bad decision and people refuse to stop repeating the lie.

It's also because they are broken people and because of their environments (family and friends) never saw the lesson in any of the kids shows they watched.
It is kind of funny that the only memes they can make are from kids stuff and not from a book that a grown up person would read

A lot of what we are seeing in heat-pumps and lot of green tech is what's called to Wright's Law. The challenge is that it get the curve to start usually takes a shock to the market and a massive inflow of $$$.

Can you charge on 120v, or no access at all? 120v is viable. I charged my Leaf and now my Mach-E on 120v. I don't drive much though.
If I could charge it at home every night I would)

Aren't we getting about 180w per sq meter with current solar? That a lot of batteries.
TLDR:
6w/m^2 thermocouple driven into the ground. Also:
“Lack of power generation at night means that we either need storage, which is expensive, or other forms of energy, which often come from fossil fuel sources.”
One of these things is completely false, the other is transiently false

A little bit after Sandy Hook my wife and I needed to pickup my son for a Dr appt. My oldest is non-mobile, non-verbal wheelchair bound in a center based program. He was 13 at the time so the school was full of middle school kids all needing constant supervision. /1
From the new HBO documentary Thoughts & Prayers that looks into the impact of the $3 billion active shooter preparedness industry on schools and communities.

This is why they get so mad a children's shows or movies. They point out morality concepts at a simple level and they feel it ifs propaganda to tell kids to be a decent person.
however, the part of it that touches men really tends to create an environment where the notion of simply striving to be a good person is not really seen as a viable goal worthy of emulation

in fairness, my clear bin of obsolete cables is pretty well organized.
Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.
