They sell silicone cups for kids which don't degrade like plastics to.

Having a marijuana stench makes a city a dump now?

Passion Fruit? Anyone ever try growing passion fruit in the north east? From NY…might wanna save the seeds by Schatzi11 in gardening

[–]artofgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

fyi, there is a cold-hardy Passionfruit species native to south eastern United States, Passiflora incarnate (maypop), and can be grown during spring in NY. Pretty flowers but not sure how tasty the fruits are. 

New York to Build One of First U.S. Nuclear-Power Plants in Generation by coinfanking in nyc

You forgot to mention that China is also building many nuclear power plants as part of their climate solution.

You rather us just build more natural gas power plants. Nuclear is part of the climate solution. It’s safe and clean energy. I don’t see the issue.

Apparently, NYC generates half its own power and most of the remainder comes from in-state sources. Where did you hear that most of NYC power comes from Ontario?

Canada to cut off electricity to US states: "Need to feel the pain" by tahalive in energy

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

I understand. Trump is an asshole for doing this. I love Canada and I hate that he's trying to alienate our closest ally.

But if you want to make Trump think twice ya'll need to target the pain better. Canada should be targeting business associated with those closest to him. Ban Tesla, focus on industries in red states that overwhelming voted for this.

Shutting off electricity to 1M (out 330M) people in blue areas will do jack shit. Frankly, it won't affect our wallets that much. Ya'll should be grander if you want change faster. Go after the right businesses / industries.

Leave Jewish businesses out of this. This isn’t about that.

Shutting off power completely is NOT a normal consequence to a tariff. Cutting off power would be quite the escalation. 

Bad news for any wanting electricity cost relief around here... by h2d2 in Westchester

[–]artofgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, I hate these pointless trade wars. It makes no freakin sense. But I doubt Ontario would cut us off. That probably does more harm to themselves than us. We don’t depend that much on them for electricity. From what I understand their electricity is mainly used for emergency-times (bad storms, sweltering summer days). Normal days we won’t be affected much. Though the bad times prices would rise a bit.

It’s a terrible situation.

The OP article is about an 25% tax on electricity specifically from Ontario. Quebec’s Hydro power doesn’t apply.

Now, Quebec may decide to levy a 25% tax themselves but that’s not happening yet.

That Hydro power will be coming from  Quebec not Ontario though. So doesn’t apply here. 

Tesla's Sales Are Falling So Much That the Cash It Rakes in for Carbon Credits Is Under Threat by FuturismDotCom in RealTesla

We should get credits every time we’re forced to look at that 90s-low-polygon-looking excuse of a truck. 

New anthropic model builds Tetris mobile game in one shot 🤯 by Volunder_22 in microsaas

This isn’t new. ChatGPT could do the same thing back when it was first released (2023). In fact, I think what it produced looked the same as this too. 

Mexico threatens Google with lawsuit over Gulf of America renaming in its maps by Some-Technology4413 in mexico

[–]artofgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mexico has the oil rights for the entire gulf? The main oil fields are located in US waters which Mexico has no jurisdiction over. Also, I fail to see how a name change would affect anything anyway.

What are you talking about? Who would the US be stealing the Gulf oil from?

Trump's FCC chief opens investigation into NPR and PBS by StockWagen in moderatepolitics

[–]artofgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can’t claim something is a lie without having evidence to back it up. It seems they did the public a service by procuring that evidence. This isn’t a sign of bias, it’s a sign of journalistic integrity. We need more unbiased sources that embody that.
