I freaking hate RLS

My partner grew up in the rural South East. Says it's pretty normal to lose power randomly throughout the year.

Sorry, I was tired when I posted that.

They reduced the batteries needed for an existing system by improving the control module and pump motors to more rapidly adjust to sunlight variation. It's good, but more of an iterative improvement.

Also... It's not a novel solution, and tbh it's a little unclear if it's an actual improvement at all.

For example, looking at the pictures it seems to be maybe a 1500 watt solar system. Such a system might need a $500 mppt charger and a $600 48v, 50amp battery. Their system still needs the charger and a battery of some sort. So, how do thier equipment cost compare to the old system? They don't really make that clear at all. Also, their efficiency metrics don't really make sense to me. It'd be nice if they'd produce a figure like gallon per watt between two comparable systems running under identical conditions on location.

Anyway, the whole think feels a bit self aggrandizing.

What a waste of time. The Internet archive is not in any way associated with the US government except by geography. I hope that "hacktivist" get a clue.

Not as exciting as it sounds.

Tons of people already are. The following site is useful for searching papers using ai https://consensus.app/

Wait... What? The article seems to imply that the water is consumed, but it's referencing the water used in cooling loops.

My partner and I moved into my parents house 2 years ago. Rent was getting too high and we were running out of options. We all get along well. Early 30s, btw.

I have to say after watching the videos, boo to the corpo for the weird exploitative lies, but kudos to the two women for staying in character! They legit put effort into moving like the real robots around them, and all while in what were probably uncomfortable costumes. I hope they get positive social media attention!

If you don't mind me asking, why don't you like this other girl? Was she mean to you?

I'll be honest, this is confusing as hell, so I might be misunderstanding.

I think it's a little hypocritical that you want it to be a chill, no drama space with the bros, but you also want to exclude a girl because you see her as competition for the guy you like who is in this group.

I understand you had a bad experience with her, but you said that the guys don't know that. From their perspective, you're just excluding other girls for no other reasons than seemingly to be the only girl in the group and perhaps to have exclusive access to your crush.
