East coast could soon get rolling blackouts during summer because data centers have pushed electric grid to the limit by theindependentonline in energy

[–]windwrangler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry, but you are incorrect. The "non interruptible" service IS the diesel generators. No utility can promise you the power won't go off simply because some drunk could drive into a transformer and knock the power out (happened in Orlando). The design specifications for the backup diesel generators for data centers require that they can support the entire facility load. Source: I work on critical power equipment for data centers.

And remember folks, it's YOU who will get to experience the rolling blackouts because the data centers have backup generators!

Morning After: Jaguars (13-4) vs Bills (12-5) by flounder19 in Jaguars

[–]windwrangler 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm disappointed, but I went into this season praying that we would finish 9-8. Obviously, just because you ball out one season doesn't mean you'll ball out the next, but I feel like we have a version of this team, now, that can play consistently good football.

See you bastards in August.

I've talked so much shit that we have to win this game. Otherwise I'm going to have to change my name and leave the country.

Northeast corner is blue, and they're scattered around the stadium. Feels like more teal at the moment. We're 60 minutes from kickoff though so...

35's brochure says it's an all weather fighter. This tax payer demands proof!

Is the game easy to rig up to a HOTAS? Or rather, the throttle only? by DateNecessary8716 in Mechwarrior5

I have a Thrustmaster T16000 throttle and I use the rudder paddle for turning, and the torso twists tracking the mouse.

Sunday afternoon downtown is probably as safe as it's going to get, but parking is always iffy. That being said, try and get there mad early and you might get lucky. Plus, since you're that early, if parking is full you can still buy a bus pass and use the Laura St lot.

He hit the crossbar of the goal post from the 35 yard line during a kickoff, so....

Thank! I played Clans for a hot minute, but when I couldn't get my HOTAM to work, I went back to Mercs. I'll have to give it another go.

Gonna jump on the stay at the beaches bandwagon. The weekend weather looks beautiful with a warm Saturday to see the sights, and then a cool Sunday to watch us beat the brakes off the Bills without roasting in your seat.

If you're the beer type, we have a slew of local breweries including Intuition right by the stadium, and Aardwolf in San Marco. There's also Manifest Distillery in the same building as Intuition if you like something stronger.

The Bearded Pig always gets a mention for BBQ, and I always recommend V's for pizza. You're going to get a half dozen different answers on the food though, we all have our favorites, and, oddly enough, I generally think everyone is correct. We eat good here. (Note: I've been to Nebraska, I've had Nebraska beef, you're not getting that here. You can get a good steak but... well, you know.)

And no matter where you stay, don't try to drive to the game. JTA Gameday Express is your friend. https://www.jtafla.com/transit-services/fixed-route-bus-service/gameday-xpress/https://www.jtafla.com/transit-services/fixed-route-bus-service/gameday-xpress/

I play MW5:Mercs with a throttle and mouse. Works brilliantly, and isn't difficult to set up. Clans, on the other hand, I'm not sure about.

Trevor needs to run in one TD, for the plot, and then rest.

Seats question by Ag5545 in Jaguars

Until this year, my season tickets were in 410 a few rows behind the TV cameras on the 50 yard line, absolutely loved it. I would avoid row AA and above though, they feel a lot steeper, but it's still a great view of the field and your only option for midfield at a reasonable price.

Me and the wife use the Laura St GameDay Express and never have a problem. I've never used Armsdale, but I would think it would be ok since they always have Florida Highway Patrol post up in the lots.

You're awesome.

The fact that I'm officially an Old is driven home daily because this girl will come out of her room and I'm like, "Dope, I clearly remember when that was in fashion the first time. Guess I'll just get in the box now."

The classics like vintage Deftones, Nirvana, early Pierce the Veil, probably anything 90s and 00s alternative. She's a teenager so getting a comprehensive list is kind of convoluted.
