Temporary planet designation for its birthday!!!! Time for Christmas spirit, y'all!

On that note, Santa and all his elves will have drowned from North pole melting long before then.

There is also expense/time of hygiene, laundry, drycleaning, restaurant lunch/coffees/snacks

I too want to work from the golf course.

I liked the meme posted a month ago...

"Great. I get to delete my work email and collaboration apps from my phone"

Musk made a rant last year interview that "It is immoral for you to work from home if people building your car, or delivering your food cannot". As an employer, you have the option to pay more for extra expenses/time involved in coming to office if that is super important to you.

Any suggestion that Crimea doesn't prefer being in Russian Federation compared to under nazi rule committed to destroying them is delusional propaganda. Crimea was transferred to Ukraine in late 1950s. No one there had to bother learning Ukrainian language and little Ukrainian emigration occurred there.

Biden?

They would need 4, but Murkowski, Collins is 2. There is plenty of money to bribe republicans to favour Pharma, or agriculture sustainability (deportations), though I'm not sure if congress can "stop" a declaration of national emergency martial law.

It is unclear how if these are US operated missiles, and authorization was for Kursk region, how they all got fired at Bryansk.

Extremely hot oceans and great lakes are causing mass rainfall events near them. If the US or Jews were using energy weapons, it wouldn't be against the US. Venezuela, Cuba, Palestine, Russia could be destroyed by daily local record rainfalls.

The global warming is not real therefore all climate disasters are US attacks, loses to oceans are boiling right now from global warming, and the US military would not need to attack US and allies in order to "fake" global warming.

Maybe Trump can promise them "no more hurricanes".

One key problem with using military, in national emergency martial law power, is "put anyone brown looking onto a bus". Don't you carry your citizenship papers on you at all times?

The economics of batteries are that they must be fully charged and discharged daily to pay off. A 2 day average cycle is double the cost of energy in using them.

In spring and fall we get positive happy headlines that "all electricity was provided by solar/renewables" during 1 hour or so during a day, or that electricity prices went negative. These seasons are low demand with good enough sun. Batteries get let those days/seasons get to 24 hour power from renewables, but then summer heatwaves won't fill demand even with more sun, winter will not charge up the batteries enough. H2 electrolysis is needed to have enough solar and batteries to cover all those needs, and then use H2 to cover winter supplemental needs. H2 supports not just more solar, but also more batteries. Makes sure batteries can always discharge before the sun comes up.

imagine refueling times is not necessarily going to be critical for all types of commercial use-cases.

Commercial vehicles, need to pay operators for downtime, and downtime is time not earning revenue. it is a bid deal to them.

Aviation struggles with the relatively low energy density in H2.

At $4/gallon diesel/kerosene, a plane will cost 100x in fuel as its purchase costs. We can already produce green H2 at $2/kg compressed. Which is equivalent to $1/gallon gasoline fuel when used in a FC. Redesigning planes, and delta wing for long range specifically, for H2 is worth liquifying the H2 for the weight savings and range over compressed. It's also that price that can compete well with commercial EV charging.
