Balcony solar is a set of diy technologies that require no utility permissions.

In Germany, NL, you can just plug it into socket and it works somehow.

In us you can use powerstations and also adapters that sync draw from battery as it charges from ac in house.

It pays for itself even with more expensive equipment, by not needed license, permission, that can lead to cheap efficient panels costing over 3$ per watt. Small systems that just offset use instead of selling back, have higher revenue offsets in high per kwh priced markets.

 

Mix of focuses between "traditional diminishment of Russia" objectives and the direct threats made by US, in this key security conference.

US efforts to hamstring China are likely to intensify – but Beijing could also benefit from US withdrawal from international commitments or Washington’s alienation of longstanding partners. The survey, for instance, shows that in every G7 country the risk represented by the US has increased more than the perceived risk posed by Russia. The environment, including extreme weather events, is perceived as a greater risk in every country surveyed except the UK and Germany.

It is correct to look to normalizing relations with Russia, and distancing from US in current environment. It will tend to be a slow/quiet process from establishment politics in NATO colonies. By far, the most prescient shift establishment parties can make for electoral chances against "far right" (nato skeptics being their most dangerous ideology) is resistance to US demands instead of continued/increased sycophancy.

More likely would be "heil Trump". Validating Trump as Fuhrer of America. Conservatives might be ok with this. Watch for congress to burn, and blame on DNC, that results in banning the party.

The effect might be from Canadians selling 2nd homes.

If it's not card carrying white republicans hacking America, we're going to have a problem with it.

withdrawn us from the WHO.

This is happening specifically in US because of its intensive dairy/poultry practices. It is a CDC matter. There happens to exist a chicken vaccine, but "concerns over exports of broiler chickens complying with foreign rules" stops its use. No idea if it makes the chickens unsafe to eat or if it's just never been tested.

Everyone I know who was anti-vax first started with the position that covid was fake. They all look at avian flu as just yet another "attack for pure inconvenience" without any giant profit motive.

Yes. As my other comment mentioned, DNC both from pro Israel ideology, and "party unity", needed to support the genocide, and other swing states were at stake. Fetterman now supportive of Trump is icing on the cake.

Russia has expressed reservations about signing a peace plan with Zelensky because he has no constitutional legitimacy as representative of Ukraine (term expired). Replacement would be in the same position to invalidate any "corrupt treasonous gifts to US extortion". So US/Trump is forced to back Zelensky in his re-election, but probably not permawar to hope for taking back 70% of Ukrainian rare earth minerals. Zelensky + actual peace to develop minerals?

 

No word on any financial assistance for "resettling to beautiful communities".

Plan is to develop Gaza for luxury tourism or some sort, but that may be too beautiful for Palestinians I guess.

Not much coverage on here on something outrageous with no regional support.

 

he raises possibility of "China-US" cooperation in lab.

Wuhan lab did have US funding, but Fort Dietrich lab was closed for incompetence after covid.

There were "Military games" held near Wuhan with US participation, before outbreak.

In late summer 2019, there was mysterious raspatory illness blamed on vaping in US, with only US occurrences.
