California’s latest attack on rooftop solar comes from AB942, which would retroactively break contracts with millions of solar consumers by cutting the compensation they receive from providing energy to the grid if their home is sold or transferred. Those with solar leases, who are predominantly lower income, will be forced to buy out those contracts when they sell.

Why would the state do that to solar users?

For the same reason they’ve spent the past several years trying to make it financially untenable for homeowners to add rooftop solar: Too many officials have bought a key utility company excuse for rising energy prices — solar “cost shift.”

I'm not a fan of him ascribing an action to "obviously it must be this reason" without any backup.

Biden was doing industrial policy to bring in manufacturing, so naturally Trump abandoned it.

(I wonder what the d-d-democrats bad people thought about the post before I said that. It's Republicans that don't want to.)

“This is crazy, we voted for Trump, we trusted him, his word, what he promised Latinos,” she said.

Luna added that many Latino workers at her job were now staying home because they were afraid of being arrested.

“I hate that I voted for him. Now I fear for my family and their families. We must come together and do something about this,” she said.

Article changed it to "could be deported" and said nothing about arrests etc. Sounds like clickbait.

Plus, you don't want to get dizzy! You gotta rotate the other way around to be a pro.

The Merriam Webster link didn't say it was incorrect as the guy implied. They said it's a correct form and gave the history.

"Headquartered" in Latvia. But really it's Russian.

 

Much is said about lead and crime rates, I'm wondering about the more mundane things.

 

Backwater? Growing power?

 

Like there's video AI to enhance video, but podcasts have so many bad connections with guests it's horrible to listen to. They need to run out through an audio AI.

(Don't even get me started on asking the President questions when the fucking helicopter is in the background. Who tf can hear anything?)

 

According to a report in the Financial Times, unnamed sources close to Honda said that the automaker would be willing to resume talks only if Nissan CEO Makoto Uchida stepped down and retired. Last Tuesday, the Financial Times reported Honda CEO Toshihiro Mibe’s relationship with Uchida had deteriorated after Honda’s boss finally understood the depth and breadth of the company’s financial mismanagement. Then, another twist.

My personal thought: Nissan's Board of Directors will boot him if they think this merger is crucial.

 

In order is Norway, Switzerland, Sweden, German, Netherlands, UK, Canada, Belgium, France, US, Japan, Australia, with Norway so far ahead they have a different font color.

 

Question works for Amazon, etc.

 

Mr. Trump is ordering the director of national intelligence and attorney general — neither official has been confirmed yet — to spend the next 15 days coming up with a plan to release the JFK files.

Mr. Trump's order also will declassify more records on the 1968 assassinations of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and former senator and attorney general Robert F. Kennedy. The DNI and attorney general will have 45 days to come up with plans to release the RFK and MLK files.

 

Like I know embers and sparks travel, but I never imagined this absolute flurry of embers
