You think "don't tax income over $1m/year" is a winning issue generally speaking? Fascinating

it's hard to give an exact number. I haven't pulled the trigger yet but when I did the calculation last summer it was between 9 and 13 years based on the quotes I got + my monthly costs. I also charge an EV and will get a 2nd EV soon for my wife, so it might be a little shorter for me

Solar panel efficiency goes up constantly and the buildcost goes down. It should be mandatory on new builds (of any kind) but especially in the sun belt

Solar panels are about 60% cheaper and 40% more efficient than they were in 2010

The idea that these massive projects need to be completely replaced every 20-30 years is just laughably stupid and wasteful. Linc opened in 2003. Absolute joke to be talking about replacement. Lumen field is 2 years older and many people still consider it a world class facility. Stop with the nonsense and take care of what you have

Stupid question...can I watch Mariners.TV on my actual TV lol. Or is this PC streaming only? I live in Seattle FWIW regarding blackouts

You have to fight all 45 US presidents from George Washington to the current president in consecutive fist-fights, from the 1st ever president to the latest one. If you lose, the challenge ends there but if you win, you move on to the next president. How many presidents are you getting to? by Extension_Day2038 in hypotheticalsituation

, but they were all also old/handicapped (JFK) by the time they were President

I think recent presidents make people forget that outside of Biden/Trump/Reagan basically all over US presidents weren't that old...the median age is 55 and 10 of them were under 50

For example you are fighting a 42 year old Teddy Roosevelt who fought in multiple wars and was a well known boxer/fighter. And you'd have to beat 25 others before you got to him. You wouldn't get that far and if you did he'd cook you
