From a Texan: Welcome to the heat dome!

You'd have to try it to find out. I'd like to think they were smart enough to brick this thing if it doesn't call home every so often or maybe it has a unique controller? Maybe you're really badass and can make it happen. They could always try to come at you for...$550 I guess? I think that's what their fine print says.

for the real processed stuff that comes individually wrapped, any place you need an instant melt cheese-turns-into-a-sauce sort of thing

"He captured this feeling of people who are tired of being lied to, tired of being lied to by politicians and officeholders of both political parties," Lotter said. "And they were sick and tired of another poll-tested Washington creation politician. ... I think he taps into that, and he has been able to keep that going."

I've got to be more careful. I've just woken up after facepalming so hard I lost consciousness. So they want to be lied to by a mass media created and tested politician instead?

I'm a little worried about the state level elector shenanigans that have played out since 2020. Is it possible we'll see a state ignore it's own voters?

Why? What should people know about Texas power grid upgrades?

Best I can see right now is ERCOT and others saying lots of upgrades have been made, but not specifics. I can see ERCOT and the legislature going back and forth on a "market overhaul" that no one can quite agree on yet and which favors more on-demand sources (natural gas and such). Can you point to where people should read about upgrades?

I think there is a bad title here, but that's not the title at the link. I don't know where this title came from. OP? The link is a pretty straight forward reporting of this recently released EIA report and doesn't seem to contain much of the author's opinion (apart from being on a renewable biased website).

The author of the article doesn't say anything about "surplus generation", that's a quote from the report.

You don't think the US Energy Information Administration knows what it's talking about? Bold stance.

Thanks! I'm really impressed all the embedded links (at least the nyt ones) to other related articles are also archive links.

Directors already made their deal. Could they still go on strike?

Do it!

That's cool Fran Drescher is the SAG president. Didn't know that. I did know she doesn't really have "The Nanny" voice but I did read her quotes in that voice. Just sticks with you.

I wonder what a LLM trained on the increasingly....shifted content Twitter has recently would look like.
