Well, the future has arrived in the US but not everywhere else 😬

Trump was wanting increased expenditure to increase American arm exports but most NATO members seem to looking to buy from anyone else. Definitely a win for America.

ICE are public servants and are knowingly breaking the law by obeying illegal orders. The Nuremberg trials dealt with that following orders stuff.

Apparently concrete water tanks, the type on a lot of rural houses, are naturally fluoridated. My kids have really good teeth which was a surprise given the number of fillings I had as a child.

We are supposed to trust our governments however it is pretty obvious that a Trump could come along and seriously misuse the backdoors that were said to be necessary to protect us. It doesn’t matter if you trust the current mob, it’s a rogue future mob we have to guard against.

I suppose people won’t see the irony of the rapist, convicted fraudster, impeached president’s policies being endorsed by a serial killer.

Pretty amazing, the NZ conservatives mount a major attack on Māori and are then intimidated by haka. Snowflakes.

There are a couple of things about battery storage, a grid built on renewables needs ride through capacity and it needs to be able to meet surges in demand. In fact all grids do. Batteries do that and remove the need for hot standby gas generators but at the moment due to lack of capacity, not all fossil fuel generators. A lot of focus is on batteries as the backup for loss of wind or sun, the spread of renewables over a large geographical area and interconnected grids provides greater assurance.

Lots being installed around Australia and are a lot cheaper than gas power generation for covering peaks.

That’s where batteries and other storage systems come into play.

Isn’t porn a staple of the religious conservative? I’m sure they will vote for this in the belief that it doesn’t apply to them.

I suspect that everybody is currently unsafe in the US.
