Yep, the Pacific DC Intertie sends HVDC from the Bonneville Dam in The Dalles, Oregon down to LA, supplying LA with up to half their residential power needs. The Columbia River powers most of the west coast.

Once we start talking long distance transmission HVDC becomes cheaper around mile 500 than our standard AC.

Both AC and DC have their place, and applications each are particularly better suited for.

It warms the body to see the canon dutifully respected

No shit, right? I hope the judge ruled this with prejudice, pissed off from the audacity that a lawyer would even try this nonsense in a courtroom. If I were that judge, I would have sanctioned those prosecutors and advised the bar to retest their qualifications.

Idk if it's cuz I pay for YouTube premium, but I know that I can watch that right now on YouTube. Maybe free users can too, im not sure.

Not gonna lie. I know about 50 women with psych degrees. Out of these 50, exactly 2 of them use those degrees and theyre both escorts.

Women should sue higher education writ large for the swindle that is a psych degree. Any promise that it would lead to work was a known lie. That shit is crack to women. Go figure out yourself, and other people, sprinkle in true crime and look at that. Dean's were more predatory than pimps.

Yip. I took the government what, 17 years..? from suing to breaking up AT+T, and they were the largest company in America that entire time.

At+t tried to slap em with some exorbitant long distance charges and Uncle Sam got tired of the fuck around.

To today; Google's been showing the wrong people the wrong kind of ads. Showing representatives ads for laundromats and daycares that offer drivinga ed after looking up how to launder money and traffic children. NO google, I did NOT mean THAT

Man idk, Im able to prepare my chicken, beef, pork or fish in a manner that ensures no bones slip thru. This can be especially trying with certain fish. But if I can do it, so can a company. If a company can't figure out how to do that and sell it at a price point they want, maybe they just shouldn't be selling that.

We don't see fugu on the shelves next to deli made California rolls. tragically

Noted. I'll see you in the ER after I go in for an existential breakdown. If words don't mean what they say they mean, what does anything mean? See a shrink, get labeled with PTSD, then I can sue the shit out of faceless corporate shitbags.
