For those who don’t understand, in a weird coincidence, both Donald Trump and Mikhail Gorbachev have been Pizza Hut spokesmen that starred in Pizza Hut tv ads in their respective markets.

Hardly unravelling, more like being reformed to carry out the current administrations agenda. Anyone not on board is being pushed out. This take that it’s “coming apart at the seams” is pure copium. The only thing coming apart at the seams is the old world order.
Electrical Engineer here, that corrosion doesn’t look too bad, I wouldn’t assume it’s the issue but it’s not impossible it might be a contributing factor since corrosion on connections can cause heat and heat can trip breakers.
If the breaker trips are happening when you do something like turn on the oven or the toaster then it’s just a matter of the electric service to the house being too small for the apartments loads. This can happen if the apartment originally had gas appliances that were later switched to electric or something else (like a hot tub) was later added to increase the electric load beyond what was originally designed for.
If the trips dont seem to correspond to anything you’re doing with electric appliances, then the equipment may be going bad or there may be an intermittent short. Both of which are not something you would be able to troubleshoot (and frankly, if you don’t know what you’re doing, even opening up a panelboard like you’ve done can be deadly).
Either way I highly recommend you either pressure your landlord to bring in an electrician, or pay for one out of pocket if thats not an option.
That’s… tough to define. TBH Consciousness itself is poorly defined.
Even before they learn language they can communicate, and they respond to their parents voices even in utero. If anything I would say that they just slowly become more conscious over time.
As a parent to a 5 and a 2 yo, once kids can communicate they can often be reasoned with. Most things that I ask them as a parent are things they dont want to do, like brush their teeth or don’t throw their toys or share with their sister. As a parent it’s my job to make them understand WHY those things are important and worth doing.
Brush your teeth so they dont decay and need to be cut out.
Dont throw toys because they will break and get thrown away or be taken away for everyones safety.
Share with your sister because if you cant cooperate with people they wont cooperate with you when you want them to.
Breaking down the reasons to language a kid can understand is generally successful and certainly much better than trying to force your kids to comply with expectations based on nothing more than “because I said so”, which was a common refrain said to me and my siblings growing up.
Sorry, did you just say “I wonder if the fossil fuel industry has home solar in its sights”?
Perhaps you haven’t been reading the news, but Trumps “One Bill Beautiful Bill” abuptly ended tax credits for home solar a few weeks ago, between that and his existing tariffs on solar panels, the breakeven period for a home solar setup is now decades.
The residential solar industry is in freefall right now. Thousands of installers are losing or have already lost their jobs.
I guess I take it for granted that this is common knowledge since I work in the industry, but it’s unbelievably bad right now.
Don’t acknowledge it at all, you dont owe the guests any explanation about yourself. Just focus on the couple and let anyone who wonders about your gender presentation puzzle it out on their own time.
That’s not how it played out in Buffalo NY in their last mayoral election. A socialist won the primary and the Democratic party launched a massive write-in campaign to keep their preferred liberal “Byron Brown” in power, to the point they were handing out stamps at voting locations so that they could be used to easily “write” him. They succeeded in keeping the socialist candidate out, and despite winning, their liberal candidate ended up resigning mid-term to take a cushy C-suite job instead.
Technically half of it already belongs to the United States. Even more technically all of it already belongs to America (the continent)
The content of the report seems to contradict the title:
“The report described a series of voltage fluctuations that led to widespread disconnections of power generation in Spain, particularly among converter-based systems commonly used in renewable energy.”
So renewable inverter based generation is at least partiality at fault?
As someone who works in the renewable industry, it became common knowledge shortly after this event that grid-following inverters exaccerbated the voltage fluctuations that led to this outage.
