It's often a disaster recovery type of thing.

Every accusation is a confession, huh?

I am very surprised that Rankine gets such a high cursedness score. Isn't it just the same as Kelvin but based on Fahrenheit instead of Celsius?

135°.

The non-right-angle is downright cheeky.

Exercising eminent domain can mean a long and expensive legal and media process. I'm not sure about Texas (or the rest of the US, for that matter), but many projects in the first world do everything possible to avoid using it.

Boeing and Microsoft: same shit, different cloud.

It appears that the door design is unchanged from the previous generation.

The problem is not with any specific part of the design or any model of plane. Grounding the Max again will not help past fixing this specific fault.

It is the fundamental corporate culture. The same poor QA, both in design and production, affects all current Boeing aircraft.

Winston Peters (NZ First leader) is a total alcohol, tobacco, and racing (horse, greyhound, whatever) industry shill. I doubt he exactly needed to be bought, but this is certainly part of his price for being part of the coalition government.

ACT (secular libertarian free market folk) probably mildly supported it, and National (general centre right; largest party) is probably much the same.

Hate speech and cancel culture are usually considered somewhat opposites - cancelling is usually a 'weapon in the toolkit' against hate speech or whatever else you don't like.

In cloudy conditions, the team estimates the range could be 50 kilometers less.

In other words, the solar only adds about 50-60km/day to the battery.

Another case of putting solar panels on specific things not being a great idea. Chuck the panels on a convenient surface pointing at the sun and connect them to the grid. Connect your load to the grid. Job done.

We can talk about solar windows/roads/cars/rivers/canopies when we've run out of space on houses and commercial roofs. They already have grid connections, structure, and are protected from damage.
