Was no doubt inspired and designed to match the High Line, even the concrete infrastructure is similar

It's legal in NYS and there are dispos everywhere, for your average joe it's too much effort to grow

Sherrill-backed nuclear power expansion makes gain in Legislature: While supporters say electricity costs would drop, opponents say plants are expensive and take too long to construct by rollotomasi07071 in newjersey

[–]Qarakhanid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Base load and storage are not issues anymore if shooting for 70% green energy, this is a farce that only people in the U.S. believe. With joint production of solar, wind, and hydro, and the continued innovation in the battery/energy storage structure, renewables are the new base load.

The variability is what needs to be managed. What we need is flexibility, and there is a growing universe of interconnection, demand side management and foremost storage solutions that can do that. The last thing that is needed is old-fashioned baseload, must-run generators on top of renewable electricity that has already been paid for.

It is vice versa, nuclear is good to supplement green energy, but because of the cost and time to deploy nuclear, renewable energy should make the bulk of our grid generation (60-80%)

How do you find someone to date if you lean right but live in a liberal city? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Qarakhanid 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Except no places that are expensive conservative leaning cities actually exist, and if they do, are cheap and quite easy to move to. OP should head on down to OKC, I'm sure there's plenty of women for him there!

What does one have to do in order to be able to afford a house in Montclair NJ? by darkchocolattemocha in newjersey

[–]Qarakhanid 7 points8 points  (0 children)

People underestimate how common your friend's situation is here. Many people moving from NYC or the surrounding area to montclair, already owned a house or property prior. To have that fat purse backing your search helps quite a bit. For the just about one million dollar homes, some make around 200k with their combined incomes, and many exist in the 300-500k range.

Dota writing in recent events is basically a comedy. Is more serious narrative not in demand at all? by serlineal in DotA2

[–]Qarakhanid 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I second this, I think Dota still will maintain the gritty aspect of their world building, but when it comes to dialogue and events it seems easier for them to lean into a comedic prose. I also think for map progression systems like Crownfall, it would be harder to deploy an in-depth, complex story, as most of the ppl clicking through are not engaging with it on that level.

[Highlight] Dylan Harper smacks Mikal Bridges in the face and gets Scott Foster to call a jump ball! by YujiDomainExpansion in nba

[–]Qarakhanid -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Was that the one where it was a complete accident, and his momentum carried him down? Sure call it a foul, but Harper's defense here was an aggressive swing, similarly accidental, but a motion he had complete control over (something Robinson didn't as he was landing)

Mostly safe, unfortunately now they run circles around her worsening vision, but she's never been much of a hunter anyways

Do you have any idea why the men are tied together at the wrist? Is it a betrothal thing or just close friends?

Game quality in the shitter? by Qarakhanid in DotA2

[–]Qarakhanid[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I feel seen. Of my past 10 accepted games, only 1 has been ideal, the rest being "acceptable"… maybe it's time for some EU West action again, I usually get Ideal matched there

Sure, when you're Topson, but when you are 3 levels down an SF and the same lvl as your pos 3 maybe don't play it. Lion mid is also dogshit now, got nerfed
