But solar panel costs are falling way faster than battery costs.

We also use it for engine displacement.
Our heat pump didn’t really kick in the resistive auxiliary heat until temps were well below 0°F, but humidity also plays into that. It wasn’t ever running the resistive heat exclusively.
If sized correctly, heat pumps also don’t really like setbacks in the winter. Just set the thermostat to whatever and leave it – don’t have it cool down at night and warm back up in the morning.
/c/flashlight sends its regards
If you own anything with “white” LEDs, I have some bad news for you…
7? Psh.
Try 40.
No but seriously, it’s addictive. One moment you’re like “I just need a good flashlight” and the next you’re telling somebody how the flashlight they got from Lowes has terrible tint and CRI compared to your hand-assembled copper and titanium pixel camo Emisar D4v2 with dedomed Nichia 519As you got for like $120 from a Chinese guy named Hank.
*since 2020.
If my cowboy math is correct (assuming two parents and two children), that comes out to about 292 people per year or 876 since 2020.
With a population the size of the United States (330 million), that means that, for a given year, 0.00009% (rounded up) of that population dies as a result of a family annihilation. For comparison, around 40,000 people (including around 1,000 children) die in vehicle accidents annually in the US.
Not that family annihilations aren’t horrible. They are. But, from a purely statistical perspective, there are much more frequent horrible things that we don’t talk about as much, for a variety of reasons.
This is the comic Salvatore based his skit on.

I see someone else has discovered the gold mine that is SkyCorp Home Video.
Everything means nothing.
Wait, there’s a 3000k SFT-40?
This is fascinating stuff! Now I kinda wanna see one of us build it…
As we’ve seen over the past decade (well, past few decades, tbh), changing the word only moves the objectionable meaning onto the new word. The goal is to address the meaning, but it feels like so much energy is being spent on addressing the words themselves that the meaning never gets dealt with…
…which I guess is understandable for those who have given up hope of the meaning being addressed, but then why spend the effort on the word?
Memes, uh, find a way.
Talks about Perseverance.
Image is of Spirit or Opportunity.
Absolutely, just like there’s some things a horse can do that a car just can’t.
I don’t plan on buying a horse or needing to do those things, and I don’t think the vast majority do either.
The end result is that there will still be ICEs in niche applications, but those who know how to operate them and the supply chains that currently make them cheap and dominant will slowly die off.
