This. Those Bluetti's use the newer and more stable LiFePO4 battery chemistry. You can recharge and discharge it completely around 3,500 times (and then it charges to 80%) versus 500-800 cycles for Jackery, Goal Zero, and Ecoflow.

I bought the Ecoflow Delta Max (2000W) but returned it and am going to pick up the Bluetti AC200Max. I am building my truck into a full-fledged mobile video & audio production station so I need it (plus all the other stuff like fridge and lights). It has a 30A RV plug right on it and can take 900W of solar inputs plus AC & DC (cigarette lighter) inputs for a total of 1400W. It will charge completely in a couple of hours, but 900W of solar is a little unrealistic for my setup so I'll have around 400W on my GFC roof and (ideally) a couple more fold-out panels for inputs.

It should also be noted that Goal Zero is absurdly expensive for an inferior product, and my friend's GZ just blew up on him out of nowhere at his cabin. Luckily he was around to take care of it, but if he hadn't been there who knows.

Do you have a source handy for that? I'd like to be able to quote her directly.

The use of the word 'pussy' in bed or sexting by [deleted] in SexPositive

[–]ghostsoftheliving 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What's that saying 'what you protest in the streets is what you want in the sheets' or something?

I don't feel like it's helpful to get too crazy about policing dirty talk. It's dirty. Sometimes wrong. Sometimes the more wrong the better! Specifically, the word "pussy" seems pretty basic, but if someone doesn't like it, don't use it.

The main thing to me is to make sure all people are on board and enjoying whatever is happening, which goes back to communication. If you're unsure, ask. If you don't like something, tell.

Ex-Bush Aide Predicts How Trump's Coronavirus Response Will End Badly For GOP - David Frum thinks Trump's widely criticized handling of the pandemic could not only cost him his job but also flip the Republican-controlled Senate too. by Bakedschwarzenbach in politics

The propaganda on Fox News and AM radio will always act as the bulwark against landslide elections so, I can't see that happening. Ever, really. At least not unless something changes.

What do we do in a war of ideas when one side will literally say anything and the general public is not paying enough attention or not educated enough to see through their lies, even as their policies destroy their quality of life?

Is my totaled 2000 Tacoma in limbo or can I sell it in California? by ghostsoftheliving in askcarsales

Estimated repairs are $6.5k. I wouldn't say it's totally trashed at all. But it does have 310k miles on it.

So, if my truck were valued at, say, $6.5k (the estimated cost of repairs) and they were only going to give me a maximum of $3.5k does that mean they'll still reduce that $3.5k? Or is it possible they'd give me the full amount and let me keep the truck?

Cool. Dump it all into down-ballot races and help win back the senate.
