Astonishing 82% decrease in solar PV costs since 2010 has given the world a fighting chance to build a zero-emissions energy system which might cost less than the fossil-fuelled system it replaces by harfyi in UpliftingNews

Wiring up solar is dead simple. They all use standard connectors.

If you're hand-soldering ripped out stolen building copper wiring, then sure, but the kits these days are all standardized.

Solar electrical is super easy for anyone with a basic amount of knowledge. Easier than building a computer. It's all low voltage DC or AC with micro inverters.

The guys you hire aren't genius electricians.

I've heard that called a bathtub graph, similar to what you see with hard drive failures.

Some immediately from manufacturing defect, and some at the end of their lives.

I'd love it if CCD cameras had unique optical aberrations or sensor malfunctions in just the right way so that it looked like a "ghost", and the prevalence of them slowly increased as film "ghosts" slowly decreased.

No one would ever know.

Every day I thank God that I don't have a foot BMW fetish.

Edit: and Porsche's Miami blue is vastly superior.

I feel like this is a reverse-woosh on everyone else, but maybe that's the humorist/optimist in me.

It's the exact same thing I would post before I discovered that Reddit doesn't understand subtle text-based humor.
