This video is nothing but confirmation bias narrated over stock video clips. By the same logic used in this video: - Bicyclist in traffic accidents are much more likely to die than those in SUVs. Also, because the physical size is so much s

Suicide cable joins two 120v (from different phases) to a 208v. Most high powered lighting fixtures require 208. Super illegal, but often facilities do not have the correct electrical setup and people use this to get around it. I almost got

You are insufferably dense. This has nothing to do with economy, inclusivity or any other BS from the POTUS website. Energy production has to be ramped up and down to match utilization in order to keep the grid stable. That is much more dif
