Internal electric pumps work good. No adapters to lose or hoses to break.

And eliminating/minimizing cobalt from the battery chemistries. That is higher up on the hierarchy of controls.

Nuclear should definitely be part of our power mix. With the exception of terrorism/dirty bombs etc. we should not fear nuclear. We need to keep it as low as reasonable though. 30%?? I have cited it before, there is evidence that human generated heat especially waste heat is...

I welcome the day when people do a fair apples to apples comparison without having to be told or shamed.

Clicks are needed.

I think nuke plants can ramp up and down pretty good. Rods drop in to slow the reaction. Shutdowns take time but. I guess it depends on you definition of fast. Seconds minutes or hours. Economic wise they want to run near capacity. The grid needs to get smarter with short...

Utah and Idaho have the highest Republican majority in the nation such that democrats are not even fielding a US Senate candidate. I am supporting an independent almost libertarian candidate. At least he is honest.

My renter was complimenting me on my classic vw bus until I told him it was an electric conversion. His response was "why are you going to let them win?" Utah is a very red state but I am still flabbergasted. As if quieter, faster, less maintenance, and soon to be cheaper aren't...

It was a slow day. Had to stir some shit up. The topic was weird anyway.

I don't think they needed to prove damages. They just needed to send a cautionary message about market manipulation. Sorbanes Oxley or Dodd Frank where both pre twitter. Twitter and alternate truths are a weird deal and nothing has been updated to regulate this informal yet public...

If course. He has been in consultation with very talented folks from the get go. Yes they will do the work. This will keep him up at night and is a huge ego distraction to get beat on or walk away from.

If Elon is forced to complete the sale I can't see that it behooves him to continue to sue Twitter. (He may sue individuals to the extent that they are not protected by the company prior to the take over.) He will get to work monetizing what he can and writing the rest off as his altruistic...

I suspect Elon's defense is technical analysis of the Twitter bots. That might take awhile. If Elon say's there are more than 5% or Twitter was uncooperative in providing the detail.

Let's talk about the Twitter problem. Potential options. 1.) Elon has to complete sale. 2.) Shifts focus to making Twitter profitable. 3.) Has to sell a shit load more stock driving price down. Or 1.) Sale goes through at a lower price 2.) Same as 2&3 but less. Or 1.) Elon pays the $1B...
