Have you wondered why you have difficulty thriving in America, 6ix? Since you can't accept that you are a stupid asshole, you immediately were attracted to Trump's explanation that your struggles are not your fault. For example, Trump tells you that your CO2 emissions are not changing the climate because "Climate Change Is A Chinese Hoax". Trump absolves you of all responsibility. Nothing is your fault, 6ix.

I'm continually amazed by all of the skills that SIX has learned, from computer software and hardware to carpentry, major house-fixes like foundation repair, hydrology, plumbing, wiring, LADA diabetes management, and car repair. What have YOU learned lately? All you do is obsessively post lies and hate 24/7/365. Get off your ass. Stop lying. Learn something new. Do something useful that you can take pride in. You'll feel better, I promise.

I'm not going to apologize to Second for that waste of time. I've already made apologies to anybody that I was going to apologize to for that behavior a long time ago. I've also never once used the word carpentry. It's not carpentry. I'm not a carpenter. The overlook isn't done yet either, but as I finish that, I'll also be working on repairing and refinishing those stairs. Just like I repaired and refinished that entire room after I began working on the overlook. And I'm sure I'll be doing other things in the meantime, like helping my friend clear out his dad's garage and house, and helping my brother learn more about his computer while setting up his MacOS/Windows dual platform stuff over the phone, and helping my aunt get all of her stuff setup online... And seriously... do you know how much it takes to cook up this sweet blue meth in my bathtub? The shit literally sells itself but cooking just takes up so much of the day.

I laughed so loud dear daughter asked me what I was laughing about! So, of course, I gave her some background ... showed her a few of your before and after pictures... read her the insult and then your reply. She missed the reference to Breaking Bad (LOL!) but thought it was funny too. This has got to be one of the funniest answers I've ever read on this website.

Quote:Originally posted by second: How EVs became so polarized https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/how-evs-became-so-polarized/ar-BB1lTxdL Between 2012 and 2022 about half of all EVs sold went to the top 10 percent most Democratic counties in the United States. Around a third of all EVs sold went to the top 5 percent most Democratic counties. That pattern persisted when researchers analyzed the most Democratic states. “There’s an incredible correlation with political ideology,” said Lucas Davis, a professor of business and technology at the University of California at Berkeley and the lead author on the analysis. Democratic areas have much more than their fair share of electric cars. So why did electric cars become — and stay — so polarized? One reason is that Republican leaders have injected electric vehicles into the culture wars. Donald Trump has railed against electric cars, calling support of them “electric car lunacy” and the push for an EV future “very, very stupid.” Electric cars have taken off across the United States. Even amid news of slowing sales, the country sold almost 1.2 million fully electric vehicles in 2023, more than quadruple the number in 2019. Personal cars account for 20 percent of U.S. planet-warming emissions, but more Americans still prefer gas-powered ones. If that doesn’t change, it will be almost impossible for the United States to meet its climate goals.

Quote:Originally posted by second: Oil industry writes executive orders for Trump to sign The U.S. oil industry is drawing up ready-to-sign executive orders for Donald Trump aimed at pushing natural gas exports, cutting drilling costs and increasing offshore oil leases in case he wins a second term, according to energy executives with direct knowledge of the work. The effort stems from the industry’s skepticism that the Trump campaign will be able to focus on energy issues as Election Day draws closer — and worries that the former president is too distracted to prepare a quick reversal of the Biden administration’s green policies. Oil executives also worry that a second Trump administration won’t attract staff skillful enough to roll back President Joe Biden’s regulations or craft new ones favoring the industry, these people added. Six energy industry lawyers and lobbyists interviewed by POLITICO described the effort to craft executive orders and other policy paperwork that they see as more effective than anything a second Trump administration could devise on its own. Those include a quick reversal of Biden’s pause on new natural gas export permits and preparations for wider and cheaper access to federal lands and waters for drilling. The initiative is just one example of the efforts underway from multiple advocacy groups with strong policy agendas — including abortion-rights opponents — to fill in the gaps for Trump’s potential return to the White House. The presumptive Republican nominee has been a vocal supporter of the oil and gas industry, but the companies often chafed at the effects of his policies as president, including his trade wars and the legal challenges that thwarted some of his pro-fossil-fuel actions. https://www.politico.com/news/2024/05/08/oil-industry-orders-trump-day-one-00156705 The Joss Whedon script for Serenity, where Wash lives, is Serenity-190pages.pdf at https://www.mediafire.com/two

All metal structures in contact with water need to be protected with sacrificial anodes or comparable protective measures. Electricity and metal are an especially bad combination, any electrical fault which causes a current to run through metal in contact with water can cause corrosion to occur thousands of times faster than normal. Let us hope developers and politicians take the hint, and stop throwing our money at inherently flawed ideas like floating solar arrays.
