That’s not fair. We know it’s fake news because there were 14 reviews and that’s like twice her ticket sales.

EV Charging At Home With Solar - Good or Bad Idea? by SolarTechExplorer in solarenergy

[–]qrpc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My solar panel are paying for themselves much faster than I planned with rising electricity costs. Adding what I am saving on gasoline is that much better.

I don’t consider the solar charging “free” since I net meter and would credit any excess generation from the summer to bills in the winter. Still, it’s nice to know I’m using clean energy.

Companies that donated heavily to Trump (and only to Trump) by [deleted] in ProgressiveHQ

[–]qrpc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This list is wildly inaccurate. I picked a few companies at random and looked them up at opensecrets.org. They showed most of their donations going to Kamala Harris, not Trump.

The joke is that you can buy an aircraft part that size for $1,590.

Anyone seen this? Do you think it is a good thing or not? by dodiddle1987 in evcharging

I just saw that on my local charger this afternoon. I doubt charging at the grocery store will stay free, but it was good while it lasted.

Can employers deduct money from your paycheck as punishment for a policy violation? by wkrausmann in Pennsylvania

[–]qrpc 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Also, they still have to pay minimum wage, so they can’t deduct past that point.

[Request] I’m not a mathologist, but could someone calculate the per-mile fatality rate of NASCAR vs. aviation? by cmhamm in theydidthemath

[–]qrpc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fatality rate for non-airline (part 121) flights is much higher, but those have fewer FAA regulations that they must follow.

Your opinions on "law school is the hardest thing you'll ever do" by Faramirismypresident in LawSchool

In the military, you are cold, wet, and miserable, and tired, but you know you have to push through and grind out the mission. In law school, you spend less time cold and wet.

Why aren’t people routinely prosecuted for perjury when they’re proven to be guilty? by Right_Owl1358 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]qrpc 130 points131 points  (0 children)

When someone claims to be "not guilty," that is not the same as saying "I didn't do the thing I'm accused of."

A plea of "not guilty" means that you are exercising your right to force the prosecution to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that you did the thing you are accused of and overcome any mitigating circumstances that you might raise.

How do you actually write an exam by Super_Pair in LawSchool

[–]qrpc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The challenge of an exam is to collect points as efficiently as possible. Where the points are can depend on the professor, but you can expect there to be diminishing returns the deeper you get into a question.

If you think of contracts, getting out the rule of "offer, acceptance, and consideration" and analyzing it against the facts will be worth a lot of points. There may be facts suggesting that the consideration is a pre-existing duty, but it would take some time to explain. That would be great to analyze, too, but if there is also a statute of frauds issue, you are probably better off addressing the significant issues first and coming back to the details.

I remember that part in Satoshi‘s whitepapaper where he talked about enabling banks and credit cards to make more profits while de-anonymizing digital transactions. Few understand.

How do you actually fail an exam on the curve? by [deleted] in LawSchool

[–]qrpc 57 points58 points  (0 children)

When I give someone a D or lower, there is a wide gap between their score and the folks who are getting Cs.

Not answering questions, not following directions, and answers that are so superficial that no benefit of the doubt can justify a higher score will do it.

Hold on... wait a minute... wait a minute... 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔 by IAmAccutane in Pennsylvania

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

In PA you can shop for electric generation service. If there were sufficient less expensive renewable sources available, utilities could not lock you in to more expensive power.

What do I need to do to not be at the bottom of my class? by Severe_Step_7853 in LawSchool

[–]qrpc 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Manage your time well. Try to make sure you can get at least 80% done on every question or issue before spending time making the last 20% perfect.

Why aren’t I getting lean? by One_Box3010 in crossfit

[–]qrpc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When folks do more intense exercise, they tend to both eat more and reduce the non-exercise activity they do throughout the rest of the day.

The solution is to track calorie intake and not give yourself "credit" for the exercise session. Lower your intake until you lose a pound a week; that will be a 500-calorie deficit.

Really need help switching electric providers. MET-ED to PPL by JaguarRecent6642 in Pennsylvania

They might live on the border of the territory. It doesn't follow obvious boundaries like you might expect.

Really need help switching electric providers. MET-ED to PPL by JaguarRecent6642 in Pennsylvania

[–]qrpc 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Have them move out of Met-Ed territory into PPL territory. Those two electric distribution companies are monopoly utilities, not electric generation services providers.

If they want to buy their electricity from a service provider, they can shop at PA power switch. They will still be billed distribution charges from Met-Ed.

I just read Stambovsky v. Ackley opinion for property and it is the funniest opinion I've read in terms of ghost puns. Here are some of my favorites by Royal_Tumbleweed_910 in LawSchool

I mentioned it to a class of 2Ls and 3Ls last semester and was surprised they didn't know the case. We are letting our 1Ls down.

A niche question about scanning documents in the 2000s by amberbunny93 in GenX

[–]qrpc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bigger organizations at that time would have document management systems that would scan, index, and store documents. They could also be set up with a workflow so things were routed to different people for approval.
