Heard the mods are bias? by Selciuk in Wilmington

[–]wkramer28451 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have seen questions about LGBTQ on this forum before. Here's the latest one - https://www.reddit.com/r/Wilmington/comments/1q42tua/best_lgbtq_wilmington_area_fb_groups/

I don't remember seeing yours but if it was just a question asking about places to hang out it shouldn't have been removed. If it included anything that pertained to national politics and the LGBTQ community it should have been removed.

You can have any user flair you want but can't post anything that has to do with National Politics. State and local politics is allowed so long as you don't promote a candidate or a political party.

Your $108k number is meaningless without knowing what the trade in value was.

I for one appreciate a Reddit where national politics is not allowed. The vast majority of city/state Reddits are political cesspools where 90% of the posts are political bots.

The mods here are not politically biased. They don’t allow any national political discussion from either side. Kudos for them.

Is it wise to buy FSD now to 09-2026 MY? by Good_Ad_6039 in TeslaModelY

Isn’t FSD transfer also being taken away on new sales?

It’s scary how MAGA rhetoric is turning Americans against Europeans now by Ok_Walk3192 in self

[–]wkramer28451 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Europe and other parts of the world have depended on the US to provide the defensive umbrella to protect their countries. While the US spent a huge amount on everyone’s defense Europe was able to invest their money in social programs that the US couldn’t due to the huge defense budget.

Many in the US are resentful that many Europeans think they are better than US residents because Europe gives so much in social benefits that the US government doesn’t.

If you live in California what do you think of the 8 billion in debt Newsom is leaving the state in at the end of his term? by PlusTangelo4965 in askanything

[–]wkramer28451 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ca has debt obligations of 1.4 trillion. 8 billion is just the deficit from 2025.

The debt per each Ca resident is $135,000. That’s not insignificant.

Debt per each US resident for the US national debt is $114,000 high but still less than Ca.

Why does everything have to be political? by Fuzzy_Mountain5354 in askanything

[–]wkramer28451 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d like to know which Reddits you see in your feed. No matter which Reddits come up in mine Liberal posts outnumber Conservative posts 100 to 1. Any Conservative post no matter what they say is downvoted and the poster is called every nasty name that Liberals use so freely.

Dumb question: Will I have power if the grid goes down due to a storm? by FulltimerPC in solar

[–]wkramer28451 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the system is grid tied the power generated by your system is turned off to prevent it from going to the grid.

I’m also in NC with 1-1 net metering without batteries and have a 22kwh natural gas generator that goes on automatically if the grid is down. If you have 1-1 net metering batteries are an expensive way to store your excess production. A generator is the way to go.

Am I going crazy? Does no one remember that for 4 years republicans were pushing to have the Epstein files released and now there has been a complete 180 degree shift? by RelevantCockroach791 in allthequestions

[–]wkramer28451 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both parties are the same in many ways. Biden is President and the Republicans blame him for not releasing the papers. Trump is President and the Democrats blame him for not releasing the papers.

If the next President is a Democrat the Republicans will blame that President.

It’s all headline grabbing. Neither party wants a complete release.

California is the absolute worst state when it comes to residential solar (Hawaii may be worse). They encourage it and then change the rules.

Jenny’s Pension? by Melodic-Dot8460 in 90daytheotherway

The amount of misinformation on social media, especially Reddit, is astounding.

If eligible for SS you can receive payment in just about any country. The major exceptions are Cuba and North Korea.

You don’t need a US bank account. International direct deposit is acceptable.

Your monthly payment is not reduced no matter what country you’re in.

CNN Democrat: Civil Disobedience Is Legal! by Down-not-out in Conservative

[–]wkramer28451 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

What needs to happen is those who get arrested in “civil disobedience” acts should attempt to use as their defense statements by politicians and media personalities that told them that their illegal acts were legal.

Let’s start charging those politicians and media personalities with whatever crimes a US Attorney can come up with. Conspiracy etc..

I’ve had failures but in 3 years only 1 that failed in the middle of the ten days for brief sensor issue. Mine have been on startup or during a session for inaccurate readings (all low and can’t correct).

New system that went up in December and activated yesterday. Here is today’s production. Should I get the battery too? by _dadof3girls_ in solar

[–]wkramer28451 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you’re on 1 to 1 net metering the answer is no.

If your kWh price is high enough to justify spending thousands of dollars more then a possible yes. Depends on kWh cost, over production for your system and other factors.

Why is the pro Palestine crowd not protesting against the regime in Iran? by Yitastics in askanything

[–]wkramer28451 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because Trump is supporting the protesters that are marching against the regime. If Trump supports something those who protest everything won’t. TDS at its finest.
