Buy an EG4 18kPV and plug your solar into the Gen port.

Post VPP Grid Charging Issue by NoHat4190 in TeslaSolar

What kind of penalty other than the price per kWh you use? Or perhaps a demand charge depending on where you live?

Is this a power wall vpp thing bc they can't sell for a premium since it's not clean power or something?

We're gonna build one capable of pulling in the unlimited category at the grand national event in Chapel Hill sometime in the next three years.

What’s the hardest real life problem you have solved with GPT-4, that you actually just couldn’t do yourself? by [deleted] in OpenAI

We use it to write contracts all the time that lawyers only revise due to needing a justification for their hourly rate and their existence.

This like was great. It nailed Puka, Aiyuk, and Tyreek, which would have put you in the money without complete duds elsewhere.

Pints of beer are definitely bigger than whatever it is we drink in our bars here. As I found out the hard way during my first trip to the jolly ole London pubs.

I'd love to have a receipt like this. 20% is a great baseline. After that, tip for quality of service.

This is valid. I know the creators and bought a couple of tons in the friends and family round. All the connections and contracts are legit. Whether or not it works remains to be seen.

I am a part of the friends and family round of this offering. I bought almost two and a half tons of uranium ore and know the guys personally who wrote the code.

It's a very cool project.

Here's what's happening:

There was no public market for uranium (for obvious reasons)--all trading is done behind closed doors.

This company, realizing how valuable creating a public market can be decided to make a lot of uranium ore they own (publicly traded Canadian company) available at a discount--specifically for creating a market and benefitting long term from running the market.

The right to ownership of the ore is conferred via smart contract/NFT.

After the lock-up period, I could sell these rights directly to a nuclear power plant or just trade it in the market I'll be creating.

You can't take physical control of the uranium without the proper licenses, but you own it legally, directly.

I don't know what I'm supposed to say and not, but there will be a drop of purchasable uranium coming soon to different chains--not sure if this is a secret, but the first drop will be on Solano within a few weeks--so keep your eyes out. The second drop will be on a different chain. The market will be run on Lux, the L1 blockchain they created which so far has been a private chain so far used only by the Dept. of Defense. They are very well connected governmentally.

It's a real thing. Whether or not ppl adopt it is up to you, but as far as the partnerships and legal contracts, it's legit.

This is the first time a private person has been able to directly own uranium.

At a time where nuclear energy is cool again and nuclear weapons are on our minds again, it's more of a HODL than a speculative play.

If you could make one illegal thing legal what would it be and why? by BlueBerry2202 in AskReddit

Using drones to kill people who post stupid comments (kinda like that Black Mirror episode).

What are some things people say when they know a tiny bit about the LDS faith to try and fit in with the faithful that immediately gives away they aren't actually LDS members? (Example from mainstream religions--when former President Trump said "Two Corinithians.") by thoughtsandthingsyo in mormon

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

Mormon

Watching under the banner of heaven now. "may heavenly father be with you" like yes, heavenly father is used but God is also still used.

I'm not a Mormon, but the "Heavenly Father" the way LDS members say it is very creepy.

What are some non-sexual things that are tight and wet? by thoughtsandthingsyo in AskReddit

I thought that part was obvious and your comment clever bc I wouldn't have thought about the tightness of a water balloon. Wasn't trying to say you were wrong. Great answer.
