It’s patently obvious to see what bothers him. It takes no effort at all to identify it. 100% agree about history’s judgement. 👍

Try hard Trump has such a fragile ego he’ll accept false peace medals (FIFA) and someone else’s peace medal as if they actually represent something of substance. He will never receive an award of any true merit and it burns him up to know it.

I don’t do Xitter and, respectfully, please don’t try to determine what I choose to comment on.

If the US wanted to improve their country they would embrace immigrants and deport all ICE agents

And a much higher honour than receiving a FIFA peace medal.

Trump is actually reading from Putin’s play book on the Ukraine.

Hang a damp towel over a fan and it will drop the temp by several degrees. Multiple fans even better. Alternatively go hang out at a shopping centre or cinema

That’s grouse. Now I feel eleventy hundred and ninety years old.

100% correct but you may wake up and find that you don’t love your career anymore. But then that’s easier to manage than dealing with the wrong man.

If Trump does receive the prize it will taint the Peace Prize for decades.

A key issue is being anti-Zionist is equated to be antisemitism. The Australian High Court has recently ruled that is not not the case. Zionism is an ideology. being Jewish is about racial and cultural origin. You can be anti-Zionist without being antisemitic.

Our apartment has 80 down lights across 6 rooms. Originally they were halogen lights. 12 years ago we switched them to LED. It reduced our average daily power consumption by 3kWh a day and we haven’t had to replace a globe in that 12 years.

28 x 475W panels would be 13.3kW. With an average of 5 hours generation a day annually that would be 66.5kWh. The average daily consumption in a 4 bed, 3 person household is 22kWh. Unless you have a huge requirement that’s serious overkill. In mid summer you’d get about 120kWh

If you get an EV make sure you get one that can export from the car to a household battery or inverter. The avge EV battery is 60kWh. The avge home uses 20kWh a day. Without a house battery the car can provide the 10 to 12kWh panels won’t deliver at night and still leave plenty car charge

A larger battery won’t necessarily help with winter off grid energy. That will depend on the kW size of your solar panels and where you live. The unknown is what grid top up cost will be in the non peak hours if you are on a time of use tariff.

There are already EV chargers that plug into a standard household power point. It’s not a fast charge but generally used for overnight charging.

I do solar assessments for large installations. Let me know the. It’s you are in and how many kW of panels you have installed and I can give you guidance on battery size. I don’t represent any solar or battery sellers.
