I suspect a mix of batteries and baseload delivery from the sunny side will be helpful. Even a few more hours of daylight from across the country can help batteries "last longer" by shortening the demand period.

I believe Starlink was used to guide Ukranian drones. I think this has nothing to do with poor people in rural areas and everything to do with ensuring deployed military devices work. Modulo of course the egotistical whims of an insane Amer

Looking forward to the day when solar dominates and we can transmit from the sunny side of the world to the dark side... I think there are already some plans for a pan-European grid, maybe even a European/Asian grid. The bigger the gri

One thing to consider is that Republican affiliation is a minority opinion, so it makes sense that they would be outnumbered in a random sampling, though I would expect 2:1 rather than 3:1.

Long COVID is still a thing, the nAbs immunity is pretty paltry because the virus keeps changing its immunity profile so much. T-cells help but also damage the host because of how COVID overstimulates them. A big reason people aren't d
