It's not for any of the above. Grid systems will have many batteries and not need excessively fast charge/discharge rates. Evs still can't really use them because they're simply too heavy for the energy density. Longer range evs already need beef8er suspensions and chew through tires from the weight. Going even heavier with even larger batteries isn't very feasible compared to the alternatives.

My first computer ran on 5 1/4" floppy disks.

They're far more useful as stationary power supplies, so really, it doesn't matter much in most cases that it can fully charge in even 2 hours.

Right now we're seeing lots of roofs start to show damage and leaks from rooftop solar. The industry is going to have to figure out a better way because people won't be happy about the trade of cheap electricity for expensive roof work. It can be done well, but these companies that pop up and install panels as cheaply as possible are going to screw things up.

It'll cause them to drop out and become permanent cheap labor that can be exploited due to not having a highschool diploma.

Sounds like college.

If the public got to hear first hand all the black humor that goes on in the EMS field, society might further collapse.

Yes. I enjoyed the simpler "rock paper scissors" offense/defense of the older games. There is such a thing as too much and it would be nice if game developers didn't always feel the need to add way more stuff to every sequel.

I enjoyed the fighting simplicity of the original pokemon games. I could recognize and know the names of 151 pokemon and their weakneses/strengths. Now there's too many pokemon and too many counters and hybrids. Too much work to keep track of.

I can already speak to every animal. It's them speaking back that's the problem.

 

Twas the night before Christmas

and all through the house

everyone felt shitty

even the mouse.

With mom at the whore house

and dad smokin grass

I settled down

for a nice piece of ass

when out on the lawn

arose such a clatter

I sprang from my piece

to see what was the matter

and out on the lawn

I seen some big dick

and I knew in a moment

it must be St.Nick

he flew down my chimney like a bat out of hell

and i knew in a moment

the fucker had fell

He filled all our stocking with pretzels and beer

and a big rubber dick

for my brother, the queer.

then he rose up the chimney with a thunderous fart

the son of a bitch blew my chimney apart

cussing and cursing as he rode out of sight.

pissing on all

having one hell of a night.

 
 

All of a sudden my clutch went from totally normal to very hard to press down. It's now been this way for quite a long time. It's a hydraulic clutch (clutch was replaced by a shop a few months prior to the issue, but me and the shop....did not get along.) in an 06 tribute with a 4 cylinder motor.

Looking for what I'll need done in order to not have to break my leg to shift the thing. Thanks.

I figure it's something the shop didn't do correctly, as it was supposed to have new flywheel, pressure plate, clutch disc, pilot bearing and throw-out bearing but there's no way to verify they replaced it all or did it correctly and the problem started suddenly about 3 months later.
