Not trying to be a “nuclear shill”, but it is worth mentioning from the article you linked:

The 1.8 million solar panels are expected to generate up to 690 MW and they’re co-located with 380 MW of 4-hour battery energy storage (1,400 MWh).

The capacity factor of solar is something around 25%, so that 690 MW solar array (even with batteries) produces about as much energy as ~160 MW nuclear… So 7x faster, but the costs are closer than you suggest. Solar is still cheaper because the O&M costs are minimal, but pretending 690 MW solar + 380 MW battery is equivalent to 1 GW nuclear is a bit disingenuous.

Mmm, I see, I see, so you’re voting for the only other person who could possibly win this election, Kamala Harris, right?

Ahh yes, of course, of course, so Trump to the rescue then right?

Oh okay, then you’re voting for Harris, right?

I get the joke, but also I was shocked to see in the article:

Thunderbird for Android runs on mobile devices running Android 5 and above.

Who out there is still running Lollipop?! That came out over a decade ago. You can’t even get Thunderbird through the Play Store because Google Play Services dropped support for 5.1 back in July. I have so many questions.

Trump’s Environmental Claims Ignore Decades of Climate Science

The other bits are simply repetitive.

That’s what, ~5 million tons/yr CO2e? That’s on par with the operating emissions of a large business - just for the “air” to fill a single product

WaPo - “Democracy dies in darkness”

Bezos - “I can deliver darkness to everyone in America in 2 days or less”

I don’t know folks… It kinda seems like carbon capture might be a scam propped up by polluters who just want to get away with a few more years of destroying the environment to maintain business as usual.

Grove has become my go-to storefront for general household goods - they have a solid selection of generally reasonably priced jtems, and a strong aversion to plastic. They’re by no means perfect but I feel a lot better with them getting a cut of my money than Bezos.

They’re not going to have the billions of niche items on Amazon, but they’re pretty great for my needs.

But that’s not a burner phone, that’s an off phone.

burner goes from your house, to abortion clinic, to your office, back to your house

Hmm, must be someone else, I don’t recognize this number

-The Government

Thanks, seitan.

Because 1) There’s not enough land on the planet, and 2) A big fossil fuel company has a hard time pointing to a specific tree and saying “that one, that’s the plant that’s halfheartedly absorbing my carbon so I can keep polluting”

CCS is putting lipstick on the fossil fuel hogs - they’ll keep it in the news as part of their quest to dodge regulation.

Cool, so is Bitwarden, hence my concern

I know little about Proton Pass, but how confident are you they don’t also use a proprietary SDK with their open source apps?

This is entirely the point of a cap and trade system. Let the market duke it out over the best path to zero, ratcheting down the amount of credits on the market, so everyone can decide whether to focus on reducing or removing.

Which is real fucking rich after the debate where he pretended to be in favor of providing more resources for people wanting to start a family - the exact thing you would strip away if you stopped funding Planned Parenthood.

I’d find the people falling for this grift comically dumb if we weren’t headed full steam ahead into an election that could be decided by just a handful of ignorant rubes.

it definitely won’t meaningfully change the need to drastically reduce the amount of carbon being emitted

You’re right, but this is also the problem. These oil and gas companies are spending so much on lobbying so they can limp along with lines like:

“We’ll be clean as soon as someone else figures out carbon sequestration”

It’s plastic “recycling” all over again. Yes we do need to spend money on studying these types of solutions, but we need to be VERY careful about letting very powerful industries abuse the system and gaslight their way into continued pollution.

Articles like this are an important reminder - if the major oil lobbyists see this as a good thing, we need to be asking why.

Ahh, so he must be a big time jeans traditionalist. Blue or bust.

Explains why he keeps muttering under his breath about the black and brown jeans in this country. It all makes sense now.
