The Flock Is OK With This Old Slimeball Jack
The look on Jack Smithโs face during that exchange was the expression of a sane man in a mental hospital.

Interesting discussion on government surveillance and self reliance.
- hooray, higher utility rates cheeseheads!!! ๐
The only dissonance here is between you and the facts. Then there is your false claims/lies about the true cost of solar power. This is all well known, except by you obviously.- Iran?
At what cost to the US tax payer? Another totally pointless war. โข Convoy Volume:โข Escorting 15 to 20 tankers nightly. โข Single-day peaks reaching up to 40 commercial vessels. โข Corridor Used:โข Nighttime shipping operations via the southern channel near Oman. โข Total Force Deployed:โข 46 total U.S. ships and 4 carrier air wings assigned to the Middle East theater. โข At least 28 specific Navy warships rotated directly through blockade and escort duties. โข Operational Cost:โข Estimated cumulative naval operating expenses exceeding $7.1 billion.- Justin Trudeau is Doing a Great Job

Krom keeps crying about peakers while areas of the world keep building out solar at a record pace. Somewhat of a dissonance factor here. Could it be???? Nahโฆ.- hooray, higher utility rates cheeseheads!!! ๐

Iโm trying to keep Texas from making a huge mistake. I beg of youโฆ.get a hold of the governor before itโs too late!!!- hooray, higher utility rates cheeseheads!!! ๐
Aggressively proving how stupid you are.- hooray, higher utility rates cheeseheads!!! ๐
Is that a world wide regulation you want added or removed?- hooray, higher utility rates cheeseheads!!! ๐
Wisconsin doesnโt get as much sun as Texas? Wow, youโre fucking genius. I never knew that. You better email Greg Abbot and fill him in with your profound knowledge on the topic of solar energy production.- hooray, higher utility rates cheeseheads!!! ๐
You have absolutely 0 understanding. and keep proving it with moronic anecdotes like that. This will come to a shock to you, but WI doesn't get as much sunshine as TX...- hooray, higher utility rates cheeseheads!!! ๐
Typical gas peaker LCOE: Approximately 20 cents per kilowatt-hour when operating at about 10% utilization. The most defensible current shorthand is therefore about 0.8 MW of peaker capacity per MW of solar. MISO evaluates resources seasonally using Seasonal Accredited Capacity, considering peak load, reserve margin, outages, and historical performance.- hooray, higher utility rates cheeseheads!!! ๐
Yep. Nuclear is a regulatory nightmare. Not to mention very few communities want one of those things. Data centers are more popular. Is that why the fastest growing form of energy production in Texas happens to be solar? Theyโve recently surpassed California. Your Google is broken. Try harder.- hooray, higher utility rates cheeseheads!!! ๐
How many of these most expensive and complex infrastructure projects are on the OCEAN? or UNDER the ocean?- hooray, higher utility rates cheeseheads!!! ๐
What else would you like to know about the most expensive and complex infrastructure projects on EARTH? What world wide regulations would you like to remove to make nuclear fission somehow less complex and therefore less expensive? Again, I have nothing against nuclear, but you could strip away all the regulation you wanted and the science and complexity of operating nuclear reactors would still be monumental.- hooray, higher utility rates cheeseheads!!! ๐
Can you now break down the costs? How much do subsidies and regulations effect these prices? Those are not the same numbers I got: Existing U.S. nuclear plants: about $32/MWh average total generating cost in 2023, according to industry cost data. NNEI New advanced nuclear: the U.S. EIA estimates roughly $81/MWh for plants entering service in 2030 (2024 dollars). UU.S. Energy Information Administration Long-term operation of existing nuclear: international estimates can be around $30โ$60/MWh, depending on country and assumptions. The IEA/NEA data show a U.S. nuclear long-term-operation case at about $33/MWh- hooray, higher utility rates cheeseheads!!! ๐
Great job proving you have less than 0 understanding, despite me already telling you that neither solar, or wind work without inefficient, expensive to run peaker plants. Those plants have to be able to spin up and shut down quickly, which is what makes them far less efficient than a regular plant that uses the same fuel source. The chart I posted is pricing for those sources in WI, and it has a line to show actual cost of power to users when you combine solar, and the required peaker plants Since you forgot already:- should be the number one issue in this yearโs election
Coming from a programmer who doesn't understand how AI works, that's priceless.- hooray, higher utility rates cheeseheads!!! ๐
Why bother. You can't read and when it doesn't follow your narrative you are blind.- hooray, higher utility rates cheeseheads!!! ๐
Please tell me more.- The Flock Is OK With This Old Slimeball Jack
Attending imaginary Hawks games should be a felony.- hooray, higher utility rates cheeseheads!!! ๐
Elon Musk stated that solar energy will eventually dominate all future power generation, claiming that non-solar sources will eventually drop to less than 0.1% - hooray, higher utility rates cheeseheads!!! ๐
