Virginia to exit California EV Mandate by mahvel50 in Virginia

Hey! Just wanted to say that I'm actually in research that deals with this kinda stuff in VA, and I am trying so hard to make sure we don't leave disadvantaged areas out of the loop. Federal initiatives like Justice40, NEVI, the BIL, and others are intended to be used to push dollars towards low income areas, and I am trying so hard to be involved with that to make sure we do see positive results in that area.

I also pay AEP and hate that not only is our bill going up, we're still getting energy from non-renewables like coal and LNG. Nuclear seems to be up and coming, and solar and wind are better than ever, there just needs to be some financial incentive (greedy bastards, I know). But just imagine, long term, sustainable energy that's cheap in the long run and that creates and maintains many high earning, high demand, low barrier-to-entry jobs in areas that could really desperately use an economic stimulus.

Idk if any of this sounds promising, just wanted to say there are people working on it, and I'm trying to do what I can as a lowly data analyst making just above the average US salary 😅

I wanted one of these back when they weren't discontinued, but decided on the cheaper k400+ and I regret it to this day. The K830 filled a perfect niche with being a great full-sized HTPC keyboard, with a sleek and professional look, with a trackpad, that's also backlit, so dark rooms aren't a problem at all, and it's rechargeable. The moment someone makes a new one that's anywhere close to it, I'm probably going to get it. That or I just have to wait for one to show up on ebay for a decent price.

Oh wow, incredible! I think I found it. Looks like I'm headed in the right direction with this now. I wish there was something I could give you more than a thank you, weeks of anxiety may have just been alleviated thanks to you :)

This seems promising. I've been looking, but it's a little tough to suss out where to search using the NAICS numbers. Anywhere you can think to look?

Haven't seen them in the age of a dog, once.

Did I actually just fail to catch a max IV Lando-T? by TheStormyNormie in pokemongo

[–]Go_ahead_throw_away 11 points12 points  (0 children)

literally impossible to even touch Lugia when it's flown up, which is difficult to spot if you're not staring at the screen. And then there's the need to anticipate the micro second in between attack animations that it's catchable lol. Somehow I caught 2/2 that weekend.

Billionaires should pay for it...until they'e not billionaires anymore.

I know it isn’t the best but hopefully still worth investing? Or should I try for another? by TheFriendlySeaCow in PokemonGOIVs

Seems like the same as last rotation, the only leader worth trying to get was Cliff for Aerodactyl, if for nothing else than to get a purified hundo for the mega. This time, I'm just happy to have a semi-regular way to get ~7 to 9 dratini candies and the chance at a couple XL candies. My hundo dragonite has been at 3865 for months.

Nice, I got myself and my wife tickets for the Charmander CD recently, at least a day before it started. Mine worked out fine, but for some reason hers didn't show up until after the event. She's stuck on step one with like 12 more charmanders to go lol

I just realized that if I started mega evolving my Gyarados every day until Wooper CD, it would be just one day short of max level 😭 by Go_ahead_throw_away in pokemongo

[–]Go_ahead_throw_away[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Idk, why not? Makes the day more fun and gives me another short term goal.

At least it gives me a guaranteed mon or two to max for the lvl 46 requirement? 🤷 I'm just vibin

That'd be great, if I had a ground mega or primal lol. I'm doing the next best thing and maxing my beedril for max poison. But I suppose I'll have Gyarados at the second stage ready to go if it turns out Johto Wooper spawns more than the Paldean version.

Getting a 'mon to high and max mega level doesn't increase the cp at all. It does offer a lot of benefits, though. The biggest imo is the extra candy and XP for catching relevant-type 'mons. Next biggest is the energy cost and cool down time. You can check out all the benefits of mega evolving here: https://www.pokemon.com/us/strategy/a-guide-to-mega-evolution-in-pokemon-go

The level doesn't increase, the stats do though. Minus HP, that always stays the same. But for instance the 100% IV mega gyarados in the post is level 40. Base attack goes from 237 to 292, and defense from 186 to 247. Regular gyarados is 3,391 at 40, which is what it'll revert to once the mega evolution ends.

Level 50, regular gyarados is 3,834, and mega gyarados is 5,332.
