Exposing the Learning-Curve Myth: Why Enhanced Geothermal Cannot Follow Solar’s Cost Trajectory - CleanTechnica
Why EGS will not follow solar’s rapid cost declines. Slow doublings, mature technologies and high CAPEX keep it expensive for decades.

Just another way that oil companies corrupt the news.
🛢️ Fossil fuel companies are disguising ads as news articles, eroding trust in journalism and fuelling climate disinformation.

Democrats file police complaints over Trump’s posts accusing them of sedition
Democrats file police complaints over Trump’s posts accusing them of sedition
Several congressional Democrats filed police complaints over social media posts from President Donald Trump calling for them to face arrest and even punishment by death after they advised U.S. service members to defy illegal orders. At least three lawmakers — Reps. Jason Crow (D-Colo.), Chrissy Houlahan (D-Pa.) and Chris Deluzio (D-Pa.) — said they contacted U.S. Capitol Police and filed complaints about Trump’s threats, which they said has undermined their personal safety and the safety of their offices. Though the complaints are unlikely to result in any further action by Capitol Police, it marks an escalation in the tensions simmering between Trump and the six lawmakers who urged U.S. service members to defy unspecified illegal orders. The three lawmakers — along with Sens. Elissa Slotkin (D-Mich.) and Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.) and Rep. Maggie Goodlander (D-N.H.) — appeared in the video earlier this week addressed to service members and intelligence community members. Each of them are either military veterans or worked in national security before being elected. Trump lashed out against the lawmakers on Thursday in a series of posts to Truth Social, even appearing to advocate for hanging the Democrats, reposting another user calling for that like “GEORGE WASHINGTON WOULD.” “SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH!” Trump wrote in a separate post. Errin Cecil-Smith, a spokesperson for Houlahan, confirmed the office had filed a complaint, saying they treated Trump’s threats no differently than “all threats targeting Representative Houlahan.” She said following Trump’s posts, the office received “thousands” of calls and emails — which they alerted Capitol Police of in their complaint — and two of their district offices received bomb threats. Cecil-Smith declined to comment on whether Capitol Police had responded to the complaints. Capitol Police did not respond to a request for comment. The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the reports. But Trump said Friday he wasn’t threatening the lawmakers, but doubled down on decrying their statements. “Modern day is a lot softer, but in the old days, if you said a thing like that, that was punishable by death,” he told Fox News’ Brian Kilmeade on Friday. “I’m not threatening them, but I think they’re in serious trouble,” he added. A spokesperson for Crow’s office also confirmed they had filed a report, which was first reported by Axios, but couldn’t immediately comment on the status of the complaint. And Deluzio’s office told The Washington Post that he had also filed a complaint; his spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment. “If that’s not a threat to violence I don’t know what is,” Houlahan said Friday in an appearance on “The Daily Blast with Greg Sargent” podcast. “Even if he for whatever reason didn’t mean it or doesn’t act on it, he’s just unleashed a lot of people who are not necessarily well on me and my team and my family, and that’s also a crime.”

1) Start the worst European war since 1945 and commit every imaginable war crime
2) Decide how you want to be rewarded for your aggression
3) Leak the list of your desiderata to the US press
4) Wait for the US president to enforce your wish list on your victim.

Of course they will cheat and squirm so we'll have to fight, but the names are coming out.

The #COP30 Mutirão decision is here. On the one hand, we had the COP30 President speak in the closing plenary about the need for a roadmap to phase out fossil fuels.

On the other hand, no such roadmap appeared in the final text.
