I don't think ludicrous is the right word to describe voluntary load shedding. If it were mandatory, sure. Asking consumers to lower their usage (if they can) for one hour on one specific day is fairly reasonable.

Not at all defending it but drivers realize that if they stop in the car lane they have to open their door into oncoming traffic to get out. If they block the bike lane there's half a car lane to open their door. It's safer for them, fuck everybody else.

1800 is usually during peak demand though.

They decided to not make it a phev after doing some testing a few years back. Otherwise I'd already own one. Especially since they have AWD on the hybrid now.

Not uncommon to find available to buy just uncommon that they are actually bought/installed. The retrofit options are vastly cheaper and mean you don't have to replace a functioning toilet.

They also make stand alone bidets which would sit next to a toilet, but they're even less common due to space constraints.

But what if we refined that oil into plastic and used that to cover the books instead? That way people wouldn't get oily fingers from reading.

Please don't doubt that their Bluetooth database links your Mac address to a wide variety of socioeconomic data gathered from thousands of third-party providers. They don't need the cameras to know who's black or rich or a 4 year old on an old Wi-Fi only iPhone riding in a shopping cart. The cameras certainly help, but they're not required for surveillance pricing.

Probably also a way to track items on the shelves for inventory and ordering. Potentially a way to make sure employees and straightened up the isles/products at the end of the day.

Probably not for surge pricing, they already do all the tracking with Bluetooth for the most part since everyone always has their phone and no longer turns off Bluetooth to save battery.

Aww dang. Well at least you already have the fix whenever you find the time to do it.

So uh, most dish washers will heat the water if it comes in too cold. It's a little more expensive than letting the water heater do it, and it'll take longer to finish. you usually just set it to the hottest wash option, and it'll heat the water inside the wash tub once full

Repainting everything twice is still easier than dealing with wallpaper

Extruder's clogged, somebody grab the poop knife!
