Thank you! I hope the undecided can choose to see a way in which the USA can become a happier and more balanced society. Instead of just having these weirdos on the menu.

I humbly ask, what is, or what does it mean ‘Trump’s MSG rally’?

Better for what?

Moving parts and complexity makes it more prone to failure.

Also, how much energy do you need to keep this working? It’s not said on the website.

Granted, both kettle and this zori trade energy and complexity/failure-potential for convenience. Much more so the zori. How much is unknown. On the simple, less-energy end, you’d use an electrical resistance in an insulated jar.

All electric kettles will fail at some point. They have moving parts and are designed for obsolescence.

In my place I use a kettle that allows me to boil 1 cup of water. The filter mesh has failed long ago but the water does not have hardness. Instead I use a small improvised cap to keep the flow of vapour to the cut off thermostat (usually at the bottom of the handle).

small scale solar like this is quite inefficient compared to grid-scale stations.

grid-scale generation is much more effective, both in cost and generation efficiency.

Can you explain a bit better on the magnitude of these differences and why they exist? Thx

Because, as I walk through the city, it is 10x more common to find an e-scooter blocking the sidewalk than an SUV?

Or, maybe, because SUVs do not go at 25kph in walking areas?

I can absolutely agree with this…

to be clear about what’s a real problem, and what’s not. (…) Pick up trucks and monster SUVs are -the- a problem and we need a public debate about those 3-4% biggest cars, the space they claim and the danger they pose.

EDIT: My city has specific, identified and plenty spaces for e-scooters. Either the rental e-scooters break down (too) frequently, or (some of!) the users of those are assholes that abandon them at random.

Look for “Portugal: How much of the country’s electricity comes from renewables?” in the bottom quarter.

Is it hard to believe or have you not thought about it hard enough?

I’ll take your word. Thanks

Except your comment and the post seem to exist in different frames of reference.

Same content on archive.ph.

The first advise is get expert help.

Find a civil engineer or a structures engineer and ask them.

That crack does not look good. If I remember correctly cracks with more than 1mm gap should not be ignored.

If you don’t want to follow any of the previous advise, carefully monitoring for movement on the crack on a medium to long timeframe is, IMHO, the most irresponsible you can be.

Great post! Thanks for this.

"Ninety percent of the world doesn’t need to reduce their [personal] emissions, but most readers of The Washington Post probably do,”

*same article on archive.is.

Thanks! And that is a very fair point.

I’m not sure I understand your stand. Are u implying nuclear power stations should be made even if not profitable?

Somehow I always think of the migrant boats crossing the Mediterranean. I hope events are unrelated.

In a lot of places the words ‘tea’ and ‘infusion’ are used interchangeably. Might be that…
