  • I imagine as we move to renewables, a lot of places are gonna have similar situation. Maybe not as bad, but I don’t know what the situation with the taxes there is.

    There’s a fixed cost associated with having the infrastructure that maintains a wire from consumer to producer functional, if you’re not paying for electricity, you’re paying for all the transmission lines and other hardware.

    I can’t imagine any grid making it profitable for people to sell power to it, sounds like a nightmare to try and balance load with random home setups bumping it up and down, but a fully self-sufficient solar home could probably eliminate all costs but maintenance for the grid connection, if you want backup to solar.


  • If it’s homework, the teacher has to grade multiple classes with 30-something students in them, so they probably ran on autopilot at that point.

    …equally likely, they had a laugh but this is not an acceptable way to answer it. Most likely done by the dumbass “funny” kid in class who already tired them out.


  • Ozempic and the like also affect impulse control (and a whole lot of other stuff, the health effect research is technically ongoing).

    So if you’re on it you don’t feel the desire to snack, it helps you moderate yourself, and I guess it stands to reason it would lower the impulse to drink too.

    Though I’m just guessing here, take this with a grain of salt.
