You can have as much solar as you want but without batteries you will still need alternative sources. Also there is the fact that there simply isn’t enough sun in most of Europe in…

All that shouldn’t be necessary without all the anti-consumer regulations which distort the market and inflate prices. On the other hand you have all the “socialist” countries in N…

Australia is pretty unique since it’s extremely suitable for solar. Countries in more northern latitudes, especially in Europe (where you need alternative sources in winter regardl…

10-100+ MW of panels?

Solar doesn’t really work in Europe during winter outside pf the southern countries so you still need alternative sources.

It’s not that useful if you don’t have enough storage. And in more northern latitude you’ll still need to turn those plants back on since just won’t at all for at least a couple of…

Well no. Iran is not in a great state and is not doing that well. They are just willing to sacrifice and suffer through several magnitudes more than US ever could.

> The American right has wanted war in Iran Yeah but at least the brighter ones there like Bolton would have preferred to start a war they knew they could win at least by defining …

I think returning (to some extent) to the status quo is possible but only if Trump’s admin is replaced or at least neutered. Then both Iran and US can make a deal without losing fa…

Yes, Trump certainly did this to help Ukraine. Despite doing as much as he can to minimize US support for Ukraine since he came to office… Also that implies he (or his cabinet) is …

A healthy and successful society can’t exist in combination with a winner takes all (or strongly leaning towards it) economic system. While the pie is growing due to increasing pro…

I have no problem eating meat as long as people are driving F350 and using private jets. So who should go first and why is it not the ultra rich?

Because it’s not very tasty? Also hoper processed foods “infused” with nutrients don’t sound very appealing.. Most people (in western countries at least) don’t really optimize thei…

Because fish farms are generally stationary?

I assumed concentration is a bigger issue than just depth? If it’s done in open sea instead of fjords that also should be an improvement. Of course fish farming in entirely unprote…

In Europe not so much. At least the base Model Y/3 are competitive or even cheaper than equivalent Chinese models.

Price? They are quite cheap these days relative to comparable cars from other manufacturers.

Currently price has little relation to manufacturing cost, though

Except the CCP seems perfectly fine with with allowing (semi) private companies to compete and innovate freely and it has worked out quite well for them..
