Don't believe the meat-industry propaganda.

Dissolve the mucus membrane? Wow, meat-industry propaganda written by RFK,Jr.?

Except those "dietary reports" were nothing but meat-industry propaganda pieces, conveniently spread by "influencers" being paid to do so. There's nothing unhealthy about Beyond Meat, or Impossible, or Gardien, etc. But, as we know, lies spread fast, especially when backed by money.

This was grotesque in the extreme.

In many cases, solar energy is now cost-competitive with, or even cheaper than, electricity generated from fossil fuels, particularly when considering the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE). While initial installation costs for solar can be high, the long-term operational costs are significantly lower due to the free fuel source (sunlight). Furthermore, the costs of fossil fuels, especially coal, are increasing due to environmental regulations and the need for carbon capture technologies. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10] Here's a more detailed comparison: [5, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16] Initial Costs: Solar panel installations require a significant upfront investment, while fossil fuel power plants have high initial construction costs and ongoing fuel expenses. [5, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16] Fuel Costs: Solar energy utilizes free, renewable sunlight, whereas fossil fuels like coal, natural gas, and oil require ongoing fuel purchases. [3, 7, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21] Operating Costs: Solar panels have relatively low operating and maintenance costs compared to fossil fuel plants, which require constant fuel delivery and maintenance. [7, 8, 15, 16, 22, 23, 24] Levelized Cost of Electricity (LCOE): LCOE is a metric that compares the lifetime cost of generating electricity from different sources. Studies show that utility-scale solar is now competitive with, and sometimes cheaper than, new natural gas plants and even existing coal plants. [1, 2, 25] Environmental Costs: The environmental impact of fossil fuels, such as air and water pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, is substantial and often not factored into the direct cost of electricity. [5, 6, 26, 27, 28, 29] Tax Incentives and Subsidies: Solar energy often benefits from government tax credits and subsidies, which can significantly lower the overall cost for consumers and businesses. [1, 2, 15, 16, 25, 30, 31, 32] Future Trends: The cost of solar energy is expected to continue to decline as technology advances and manufacturing scales up, while the cost of fossil fuels is likely to increase due to resource depletion and environmental regulations. [4, 5, 7, 33, 34, 35] Regional Variations: The cost competitiveness of solar vs. fossil fuels can vary depending on location, with regions with high solar irradiance and favorable policies potentially seeing greater cost advantages. [15, 16, 36, 37, 38, 39] Specific Examples: A study by pv magazine USA, found that new-build utility-scale solar, even without subsidies, is less costly than new natural gas and competes with existing gas plants. [2] Another analysis showed that solar with storage can cost as little as $0.04 per kilowatt-hour (kWh), while fossil fuels can cost up to $0.22 per kWh. [7] In California, where the cost of natural gas is high, solar is already often cheaper than fossil fuel options, according to Smart Cities Dive. [37, 40, 41] Challenges: While solar is becoming more cost-competitive, it's important to acknowledge that it's not always cheaper in every scenario. Intermittency of solar power and the need for energy storage solutions to ensure reliable supply can add to the overall cost and complexity, according to Smart Cities Dive. [4, 36, 37, 42] In conclusion, the cost of solar energy is rapidly approaching and even surpassing that of fossil fuels, driven by technological advancements, declining costs, and increasing environmental concerns.

What do you want to bet that Samsung is monetizing the user data they're collecting? So, they lock the users into their OS, and that OS sends them ALL of your data for Samsung to sell.

Didn't a similar thing happen with Wink? I had a Wink system, it worked beautifully until a certain "music" star bought into it and totally fubar'ed it. After flailing badly, it went subscription-only and then, of course, died from lack of interest.

In rural Virginia where my parents live, their only non-wireless internet service is from Brightspeed. It's 1.2Mbps/256Kbps DSL that is offline more than it is online. And they have to pay $90/month for it. Parents switched to US Cellular wireless and it is almost as bad. They're going to give T-Mobile Wireless a try, hoping that it will at least remain online more.

How will Google survive? It's so brave of all these people, all 10 of them, who switch to an alternate search engine. So brave! Can we have yet another out-of-breath article about switching search engines? How about one switching from Windows to (GASP!) Linux? (yawn)

Stop listening to faux news. I go to San Francisco regularly. I have friends that live there. It is not in any way a "hellscape". That's bloviation from reich-wing "news" telling you that, not reality. I was last in SF just a few months ago, stayed at a Union Square hotel. At no time was I in any danger walking at night to go to restaurants or to a bar. Maybe you should visit sometime instead of relying on liars with an agenda.

I had a LG CX OLED. Now it have a B4 OLED model. All you have to do is turn off all the advertising BS. They spread it around in the menus but it isn't difficult to find it all and turn it off. We watch YouTube through the TV, but everything else is watched through the Plex client on the Google TV Streamer that is connected to the LG TV.

Many areas of the state of California ARE zero-emissions, and the entire state has had periods where the only source of power was renewables. We are quickly working towards that being the case all the time, not just intermittently. Even when fossil-fuels are involved, it is natural gas plants that are considered very low carbon emissions, not coal-fired monstrosities.

I had a reddit account for many years without any issues. I made one comment about smiling while scrolling past Elon Musks obituary. Reddit permanently banned my account, claiming I was "advocating violence". I appealed to no avail. I can't even create a new account, even with a different email, it gets banned within a few minutes. But, I discovered I really don't need reddit anymore, so that's a plus.

If you'd bothered to click the link to the website, all of your question are answered. It has over 32 cubic feet of storage in the back, more than some SUVs. It has left and right cameras that continuously display the view of side mirrors directly in the line of sight of the driver. The rearview is also from cameras, with a normal lens for regular rearview and a wide angle for parking. In the video, the rear lights appeared to be blinking because they are LED. If you video most modern cars that have LED lighting, the lights will appear to be blinking in the video. It does have airbags for driver and passenger. It also has A/C and can do 0-60 in less than 6 seconds with a top speed over 100 mph, which should be more than sufficient for the average driver.
