The power just got turned off by PG&E at my GF's rich mom's house in the California bay area. This is a rich community and her and her neighbors houses are all in the 1.5-3 mil range. It's actually fucking over. People have turkeys to cook. what the actual fuck is happening?

100% planned. Probably a liberal rich neighborhood full of assholes who complained enough to force the wiring upgrade. Owners are getting back at these people.

Also if its 1PM on Thanksgiving and you're still cooking you are a failure.

A&W claims they did a "blind taste test" and people liked them equally. But is there any other supporting evidence for this claim?
were the fries as good? was the burger & toppings really as good? Were the locations as good? Why aren't any of the other dozens of explanations considered before blindly accepting a butthurt business owner's BS claim for why his business failed.

as far as fatties go, I think they'd trust their bellies more than numbers. sounds like complete bullshit

Monopoly power at work in Northern California right now. My friend worked for the judge that created the ruling that's causing power to be turned off all the time. The only way NorCal will stop being a huge shit fire hazard is if people are inconvenienced enough to fight against the monopoly power of pg&e. Sad but true this is the logical conclusion of libertarianism.

Solar panels don't actually give you power, they give electricity to the grid and the grid then gives you credits. I shit you not, your solar panels are not yours but you had to pay for them.

That all depends on how you set it up. You can charge batteries locally but afaik fewer people do that because it costs more than just sending it to the grid and getting credits.
