Sun played no, or no authoritative, role in developing javascript. I don’t know how they got the trademark except perhaps no one owning it thought they could monetize the trademark.

This bike would have 100 mile range under 25 or even 20 lbs, where most other ebikes would not be able to be pedaled as efficiently to do such a ride.

You do not want to use this. I am warning you. Turn away now.

This generally means a small solar system. Cost per watt is higher than larger systems.

The United States may find a path forward by pursuing market conditions like Australia, where over 40% of homes in some regions have rooftop solar. Soft costs are far lower in the nation, and average residential solar installation cost was $0.89 per W, more than $2.00 per W cheaper than both Canada and the United States.

That path requires oligarchist monopoly utilities to have less influence on oligarchist political parties. Biden’s approach of creating a new green energy manufacturing oligarchy protection doesn’t help with low prices that could be achieved if main utility monopoly obstruction to home solar were removed. FF Oligarchy assists utility monopolies in their lobbying for centralized power production. It is not within US political corruption overton window to help citizens escape extortion.

According to most well funded candidate for skynet, there may be alternative distributions that have been updated in last 16 years. Some of those updates were improvements.

Some sources said 2023 was first to hit +1.5C. Must have been 1.495C. This year is ahead of 2023. CO2 measurements this spring were above the decades 2.5ppm per year, which was the highest decade increase. Temperature increases lag CO2 levels.

Forest fires and spread are at high activitity at current temperatures. Arctic ice keeps shrinking without record temperatures. Natural methane releases even as human activity methane gets deregulated.

There is no expectation of seeing a temperature decrease even if 2025 ends up 3rd instead of 2nd. The precision for exact carbon budget may have been overestimated.

H2 makes the best long term electrical storage, because not only is it more efficient than other cheap alternatives, it can be even more efficient with heat use, and it is economically transportable/exportable and so is not capped by utilization/capacity constraints.

heat storage is extremely useful for complementing winter solar in low winter sun places. Including at small scale. Hydronic floor heating is most efficient use of heat. Heat pumps can very efficiently gain 30C of temperature gain. Sand and construction waste box with water pipes, and heat resistors, flowing through it, can store heat well above 100C that water doesn’t ineffienctly. 2000 liters of just water is sufficient in most locations with a fireplace or EV backup, but sand/dirt/gypsum of 500L to 1000L significantly boosts resilence and heat capacity.

efficient because heat is used for heat. (district heating system). getting electricity from heat is relatively inefficient. Stacked blocks are relatively efficient but concerns over wind resistance.

Mines like datacenters can be in remote low land value areas that have a lot of room for solar, which without grid connections is even cheaper than grid connected energy, and cheaper power than transporting fuel. Surrounding land, certainly not usable for civilization. Most uranium mines in the world have a proper exclusion zone that allows more solar energy than the energy value of the uranium inside the mine.

After mine’s life, power availability means a cleaned up side does have civilization/land value. It also makes it attractive for eventual grid connection to rest of continent, or just “microgrid” short transmission to touristier locations. Solar development of a mining area not only offers cheapest mining operations, it creates future land value appreciation, and power supply revenues. Both significantly improving economics of a mining project.

On mining debt, china has opened fully electric mines. Mining is not an inherently oil/diesel using activity.

Obviously japan is not forced to rely on coal, too.

Could be 3 row suv. $35k is pretty cheap, and cheaper to have unfinished back row and trunk.

In short term, the trends are opposite to Europe or its coastal Atlantic having colder winters, and this opposite trend has many reasons to continue with more warming.

1. Tropical Atlantic is getting warmer. Even if current flow northward slows down, the amount of heat flowing could stay about the same.

2. Air termperatures are warming entire oceans, but especially North Atlantic from North American westerlies.

3. Arctic ocean is not melting at an accelerated rate. It is not freezing as much in winter. This is feedback from hotter oceans in summer, and there is in fact an extreme record low Arctic sea ice volume now and this winter. https://ocean.dmi.dk/arctic/icethickness/thk.uk.php

4. That feedback pattern comes from early summer sea ice extent loss. Hot open Arctic ocean is more the result of baking in the sun for 20+ hours per day then AMOC. Ice regrowth is slowed. Number of days ice free is as important as air temperature

5. Europe’s winter weather depends on coastal Atlantic sea temperature. That can keep getting warmer despite slower AMOC from above factors.

It’s quite easy too. UBI.

Musk has a good talking point about a Star Trek future instead of skynet. But he is part of the cabal going for skynet. Just because Skynet will be programmed for US government and military supremacy in political service to its zionist oligarchy, doesn’t make skynet less of your enemy.

There is a $44B NG/LNG project they have approved but no one wants to buy. It would have a 1Trillion cf NG per year capacity. For 10%/year “payback” needs $4.40 operating profit per mmbtu, which is more than than current price of NG.

NG is a declining use commodity in the world, with EU and China having 10% reductions for electricity last year. Russia and Australia can supply Asia from existing facilities, and even US gulf coast has too much export capacity relative to future demand, and easier expansion possibilities/commitments. There is no room for this new project even if “allies” are subjugated to buying from US.

They sell everything in China, afaik. In Trump 1.0 economy, there was a huge number of unicorn startups (Wework, Doordash, Uber) that lost money. Many of them are profitable today. That practice is good for economy in that equity investors are subsidizing consumer value.

Bottom line is that dumping is a political attack against abundance. Disruption usually requires a marketing effort to ramp up scale, and it would be unreasonable to force price increases on any company losing money, when they would not lose money if their sales volume was higher.

Ford reports that its latest loss per EV is $40,000. It used to be $100k. But they don’t disclose how much of this is plant depreciation, which US rules allow for aggressive expensing. So for Ford, EV cost reporting is a PR operation to get government/stakeholders to stop it from making EVs.

Xiaomi EVs are very attractive vehicles, and previous loss reported was $6000. It certainly would sell well priced $900 higher, but it looks like volume and marketing will let it achieve profitability soon enough.

Ethanol is bad mostly because energy prom pv solar is over 15 times higher.

A circular corn ethanol economy Is not a solution to make it better. Just produces less surplus per acre.

Not clear. Even if no fertilizer use. Harvesting, transportation, fermentation are high co2 emmitters. Where fertilizer boosts yields, it may be a minimal contributor to net emissions.

Land owners making ethanol precursors would want high yield crops.
