- 51Posted by CaptainKirk 1 month ago to If Solar and Wind Are Now Cheaper than Fossil Fuels, Why Don’t We Have More? The LCOE Scam.LOL. It used to be a Late Night (Letterman) thing.
Headlines from the future. My favorites were:
- $100K starting salary for Nintendo Players
and
- Oat Bran... The Silent Killer
The latter one really nails it. Because what we think is "great" (like LOW-FAT) can turn out to HARM people in the future.
It reminds me to think ahead. Also, there is some truth to the land becoming brittle. A (gone) friend got his PhD and worked with the Japanese on Earthquake prediction, using this as the basis of their research, and it was panning out very well...
Crazy! - 52Posted by freedomforall 1 month ago to TGIFfunnies 11/7/25 EDITION: Bad Ideas!Move to NYC
Thanks, OUC. 👍 - 53Posted by freedomforall 1 month ago to If Solar and Wind Are Now Cheaper than Fossil Fuels, Why Don’t We Have More? The LCOE Scam.Premise for sci-fi novel?
- 54Posted by CaptainKirk 1 month ago to TGIFfunnies 11/7/25 EDITION: Bad Ideas!Had to comment. Quite Awesome Collection.
Seeing other siblings...
Her response:
"You never know..."
"But that's because we can't know. We haven't figured out that incest is bad, and marrying first cousins is wrong..." - 55Posted by CaptainKirk 1 month ago to If Solar and Wind Are Now Cheaper than Fossil Fuels, Why Don’t We Have More? The LCOE Scam.Yeah, I don't know what to believe any more.
Because I know there are so many lies.
Elon Musk made the comment... Take 3 Mile Island, and convert it to solar, it would produce more power.
I am stunned he said that. It cannot possibly be true.
Not to mention... Praying for no Hail Storms.
And "For how long"...
That said, they are finally advancing the technology pretty well. But I still can't believe.
Besides, I imagine this HEADLINE in 2185
The Earth is Dying b/c Too many Solar Farms...
... Effectively we didn't know the Earth itself needed the heat from the direct sunlight to avoid becoming brittle and THIS Explains the high frequency of earthquakes everywhere...
LOL - 56Posted by 73SHARK 1 month ago to TGIFfunnies 11/7/25 EDITION: Bad Ideas!The praying mantis one was my favorite.
- 57Posted by JakeOrilley 1 month ago to Mamdani's Socialist (Democrat) Plans Will Only Make NYC WorseVery True. Thank you John McCain.... But at least they tried. It will be interesting to see how many of the promises that Mamdani made will even be tried.
- 58Posted by freedomforall 1 month ago to Mamdani's Socialist (Democrat) Plans Will Only Make NYC WorseThe entire point of government is that politicians lie to get elected and the people never knew what they were really going to get.
Example: GOP promised to kill Obamacare to get elected. - 59Posted by JakeOrilley 1 month ago to Mamdani's Socialist (Democrat) Plans Will Only Make NYC WorseAnd then this morning (11/7), Mamdani and his handlers come out with all of the things that have to change immediately when he is sworn in - disassociate everything NYC does/has that associates in any way with Israel. NYPD training with IDF, any investments with any company that does business with Israel.....and so much more. And this is the city with the most Jews outside of Israel?? Do they realize what they have just done to themselves?
- 60Posted by $ Olduglycarl 1 month ago to If Solar and Wind Are Now Cheaper than Fossil Fuels, Why Don’t We Have More? The LCOE Scam.Not to mention, solar and windmills are horrific for the environment, never mind Whales and Birds.
- 61Posted by mccannon01 1 month ago to Mamdani's Socialist (Democrat) Plans Will Only Make NYC WorseNew Yorkers will enjoy their choice especially well when Muslims throw down prayer rugs in the busiest streets and avenues five time a day, weather permitting of course. At least there will be plenty of city wide loud bellowing in Arabic preceding the events to warn everyone of what's coming.
- 62Posted by mccannon01 1 month ago to Mamdani's Socialist (Democrat) Plans Will Only Make NYC Worse...and the sooner the better.
- 63Posted by Lucky 1 month ago to Danish Cattle Dropping Like Flies After Government Mandates Methane Enzyme Inhibitor (Claimed To Be "Safe and Effective")Coming back to this after .. The Government Sandwich-
There is some work in it, some science (tho' it does not work).
Suppose it did work,
suppose it was cheap,
suppose your cattle thrived on it just as with the usual feed
- then what?
You would not bother, no value.
No value for value. - 64Posted by Lucky 1 month ago to TGIFfunnies 11/7/25 EDITION: Bad Ideas!Yup the gov sandwich is worth a mention, economic with the materials of ham and cheese, and constructed with some skill. No one buys to eat, a few sales just to look at it.
- 65Posted by Lucky 1 month ago to If Solar and Wind Are Now Cheaper than Fossil Fuels, Why Don’t We Have More? The LCOE Scam.Good article, right on all counts.
- levelized cost, good explanation- the unreliable babysitter, if you choose the unreliable service, you need to pay the reliable service as well if you want actual babysitting.
- Canada, has vast hydro-power and minerals so can sell much cheap electricity and aluminum, so just agree on a commercial price and buy, high tariffs are a rod for your own back.
-cheap electric power and China. Cheap and large scale electricity is essential for AI, IT, and industry in general. China pulls out all stops, truly enormous projects. Trump appears to agree but lacks power to bring it on, well that may not be his job, but whose job is it? Apart from Russia, other nations are on a feel-good suicide mission claiming electric power will come from sun beams sea-breezes. - 66Me dino has one tacky shirt left from the 70s that was once cool to wear.
Now I would not be caught dead in it.
I do have a use for it, though. I use it to wipe dust. - 67Posted by CaptainKirk 1 month ago to Mamdani's Socialist (Democrat) Plans Will Only Make NYC WorseCall me surprised that someone with an automatic just rip a line straight up both sides of the street.
I remember Dearbornistan before the -istan was added. LOL - 68Posted by JakeOrilley 1 month ago to TGIFfunnies 11/7/25 EDITION: Bad Ideas!Excellent OGC!!!! I got to the dress for the 70's one and had to go check my closet.....and Mamdani and NYC - that is too true! the warning sign that Subway now has to have in there stores...thanks for the collection!
- 69Posted by JakeOrilley 1 month ago to Mamdani's Socialist (Democrat) Plans Will Only Make NYC WorseToo close... but it is going to be interesting to watch.
- 70Posted by JakeOrilley 1 month ago to Mamdani's Socialist (Democrat) Plans Will Only Make NYC WorseAs am I - well said..
- 71Posted by JakeOrilley 1 month ago to Mamdani's Socialist (Democrat) Plans Will Only Make NYC WorseDo not see a way to right that ship - They just threw it away. London is a great example of what happens when you elect a socialist Muslim. I believe that Britain cannot make it without London, but I do believe that the US can make it without NYC. That is my hope......
- 72Posted by JakeOrilley 1 month ago to Mamdani's Socialist (Democrat) Plans Will Only Make NYC WorseNYC keeps reminding me of AS - I was told several times by a NYC liberal that there would never be a problem with NYC - it was WAY to big to fail. I wish I could get with her now and ask again.
- 73Posted by JakeOrilley 1 month ago to Mamdani's Socialist (Democrat) Plans Will Only Make NYC WorseThey voted for no personal property. They need to live with that decision.
- 74Posted by JakeOrilley 1 month ago to Mamdani's Socialist (Democrat) Plans Will Only Make NYC WorseAn excellent reminder kddr.....
- 75Posted by mccannon01 1 month ago to Mamdani's Socialist (Democrat) Plans Will Only Make NYC WorseThanks. I wish I added: Islam and Marxism would see you dead if you don't think like them, but free America wants you to have life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness no matter what you think. Oh wait, I think I just did.
