The purpose of the battery isn’t to power the entire state for 15 minutes. It can respond to market demand within milliseconds, and after coming online was responsible for dropping the average wholesale price of electricity by 90%.

> Eight years ago Japanese tourism was near 100% domestic. Nope, calling bull on this. Not by a long shot. Japan has been a major international tourist destination, particularly in the winter for at least 20 years.

I asked donuts (gTLD owner of .family) whether my domain renewal could be reduced (from $385 per year to something more reasonable for a genealogy hobby). This was their response. Maybe it’s not worth reading too much into the “we can’t cha

I have a late model VW Tiguan and it has a great design with physical controls + large capacitive touch screen. No critical driving functions are controlled by the touch screen. I think this is a very usable approach.

90% of our population lives within 100km of the coast between Melbourne and Cairns. However agricultural usage extends far inland in the temperate regions and there has been a lot of opposition to mining activities in our “wheat belts”.

The sad reality is that our government thinks only in timespans less than an election cycle. Any large-scale national infrastructure project is basically a non-starter now, the Liberals trashed the NBN and they will trash anything else that
