Let alone the wind erosion from having exposed soil over winter.

I also and have gone to -46F and for me a thick wool sweater and wool felt coat makes huge difference. I can not even wear my wool sweater until it gets to -20F otherwise I will burn up :)
You must not be involved in the medical field to realize how bad it is especially when it come to diagnosis.
Did you read the report? Doesn't sound like it was safe for him.
Now we know why Isaacman was removed from nomination because he wouldn't have put up with this BS.
Considering nobody in the world can compete with SpaceX currently this seems purely political in nature. The EU is struggling to even come up with an answer to reusable rockets. China is the closest and will likely have something equivalent to the Falcon 9 within the next 2 years. But someone in the USA? People are delusional. Sure it is always best to have competitors but how did that work for Boeing/NASA/Starliner? You can't have two players/competitors if there is only one player in the entire world. And the reason why you need reusability is so that it is actually sustainable to use it! Does anyone here thinking this is a good idea have any idea how much it costs to launch SLS just once??
They could have delivered today if they weren't concerned about reusability.
Catching of a booster which everyone else thought was the stupidest craziest thing ever and they did it on first try.
Even on cloudy days you can generate power. Unless it is very thick clouds I generate enough for my base loads even in complete overcast skies because I have an "excess" of PV panels.
In case you didn't realize he is looking to store ALL of the summer generation into a battery and generate zero power in winter.. so rely entirely off of a battery during winter.. which is absolutely no feasible for a normal person and nobody would ever do.
And the price of the egg?
Nobody seems to think twice about storing gasoline, heating oil, diesel, and/or propane around their place.
For some reason in the USA there is only a single state that has approved that (Utah).
You forgot to mention anybody who has a yard that gets full sun can mount panels there as well. As far as fires you can say same thing about all the fires that currently occur because of propane, gas, and heating oil. Those have become some engrained in society for so long that you don't even think of that as a "fire hazard therefore you shouldn't even have it".
I'm fully off grid today with no issues, even had power company remove power poles. I do heat with wood however. AC in the summer is no issue since that is when I get the most sun anyways.
And yet we still have no place to put that "clean" energy when it is depleted.
Highly likely the next major Xcode update will break it.
The title is wrong, this is about using a completely different scale system.
But put them anywhere with snow, rain, fog, or even just grey skies and they struggle heavily I have winter basically 5 months of the year where I am and have no issues being fully off grid with only solar and batteries as energy sources. You do have to compensate for winter by having more panels and more batteries but easily doable.
Not sure why you say this. I'm on solar + batteries 24/7 365 days a year. Use no fossil fuels. Even had utility company remove power poles from my place.
I'm fully off grid (even had utility power but had them remove it). Cook on electric, have electric water heater, using AC and have enough panels and batteries to not even need a backup generator.
Ive wanted to get rid of all the ports on everything! Thank goodness he's gone and we now have MagSafe, HDMI, and SD card readers back on portables.
I think the average reader will understand exactly what they are trying to say.
Yeah but they aren't making this clear and see people misinterpreting this not realizing that it is in temperate forests only. I don't see how any tree roots can be formed when frost line is feet below the surface.
This is still in temperate forests. It still isn't clear to me if this is true where frost lines are feet below the surface. How can the roots grow in frozen soil?
Searched for some books and didn't find them.. I assume this in't complete list of all USA based books with ISBN published?
Isn't this like any other US government spending that is for prevention? From healthcare to environment the focus is never on prevention.
The guy that laughed at the iPhone when it was first announced.
Simply switching to no-till in the fall would be a huge improvement. I drove by hundreds and hundreds of miles of just pure black dirt fields that were recently tilled up after harvesting in western MN. Even though I live a ways away from there we've had dirt deposited on top of snow in the winter when strong winds come through and pick up small bits of all that exposed soil.
Now delayed to at least July 2nd.
