Three steaks where I live are now 60$ from a supermarket, I think many people underestimate the general inflation of goods prices as well. When youre measuring things in dollars its going to be a bad experience, if you measure in gold or some other commodity its actually getting cheaper.

Left leaning people live in gated communities of urban sprawl when they get rich enough, just look at SanFrancisco.

Everyone becomes a nimby when their traffic may get worse or a shadow might block their sun, this is human nature irrespective of left/right.

As opposed to green energy companies propaganda that rarely even mention the need for storage? Theres a tangible reason most countries arent fully moving to it for baseload power, its not a conspiracy.

Heres a longer video on it if you can stomach the fact nuclear is better than solar/wind:

I wont even get into the fact most refining and manufacturing is done in China using subsidized coal, and is why they are the leader in solar/battery production.

I always assume they had additives in closed loop systems, but you're right you'd think there would be something.

The study included Germany too, did it not?

The point of the study was including the effects of intermittency and non-dispatchability, which is what makes LCOE a flawed metric.

Do you have a study then, dont just come and take a shit.

I want the study to include storage, and maintenance obviously, and any backup power required for 100% grid reliability.

I'd guess because its all heat energy in the end, so you need something that expands and compresses. The only alternative I suppose would be like sound waves, or mechanical energy, or whatever a battery does.

Steam is able to play most Windows games now via Proton. You can wipe out the cancer that is data mining you and feeding all your porn habits to the US government.

I learned recently that it was the Babylonians who invented the hour and the minute as a unit of time, and they used base 60, which I thought was pretty neat. Then we created seconds and milliseconds in base 10.

Do we think that the war with Iran was started in order to win the next election?

 

Daggerfall is the prequel to Skyrim. I'd never played it until seeing it for free on Steam recently.
