Most people hyping solar and wind ignore the need for natural gas or expensive battery backup power If they included it, solar and wind electricity is "more expensive than almost any alternative" According to Bank of America advisoranalyst.com/wp-content/upl…

Remarkable video presented in Saturday's Army-Navy game showcasing USS CARNEY DDG64. The count of "22-0" presumably refers to Houthi-launched missiles and aerial drones - this is a higher number than what's previously been reported

How does the winter cold affect wind and solar output? In Germany, on the few days of <0°C, wind and solar output averaged 12GW, half the output of milder 5-10°C days. Moreover, on these cold days electricity demand was 10% higher.

Lest we forget, 80 years ago today the greatest armada in human history was hurled at the Normandy coast, with the ultimate objective of smashing the Third Reich. Thousands of 20-year olds were asked to do what nobody should ever be asked to do, but there was no alternative.

Our former President showed tremendous grace and courage under literal fire tonight. So thankful for his safety and so sad for the victims and their families.

By “steal an election” do you mean having the FBI lie to the FISA court 17 times to get phone taps on an entire presidential campaign then having political operatives & the IC employ Mccarthyism & concoct a ridiculous conspiracy theory that the president is a traitor & working

The US is mostly run on fossil fuels, also in 2023 82% of all energy (not just electricity) consumed comes from coal, oil and gas Nuclear is 9%, renewables (mostly biomass) is 9% Solar and wind contributes 2.5% eia.gov/totalenergy/da… x.com/BjornLomborg/s…

X has cautioned me that I haven't posted anything original in a while, and therefore I may be a "bot"; and therefore my "reach" may be limited. Well I'm not a bot, unlike X, which is all software, and therefore definitely a bot. Something about the pot and the kettle?Elon Musk

The Andromeda galaxy is 6 times bigger in the sky than the full Moon: it's just too dim to clearly see it with the naked eye. This composite image shows what it would look like at night if it was just brighter. [📸 Tom Buckley-Houston]
