It’s hard enough to express this in a first language

Even then it’s safer than playing with rocks it seems.

It’s hell. But at least you can dial boot the damn thing.

Also significant politics within the field preventing integrated approaches to control. It’s possible we could target specific species of mosquito that are vectors for deadly disease, with the intent of eradicating the disease by suppressing the vector. It would be the greatest collective undertaking of human kind. We’d have to shelf things like international borders and profits.

We’re stuck with being annoyed in any case.

Also ticks.

Chances are you can find a cause in your community people have gathered around.

Sometimes though you might be in aplace where there’s just no community for you which is a reality in various rural areas. You might need to make the drive those 3 counties over.

If it’s real bad you might need to decide between your roots and living closer to communities you mesh well with. Depends on what’s important for you in life and where you can find work.

Volunteering is a great way! You can also go to festivals with clubs (free market, ren fair, hobby conventions) and ask how to get involved. Just walk up to people and express intereat and ask how to participate. Oftrn they’ll be excited to get you into the community.

Pick and choose. You’ll meet a lot of toxic people. You need to identify toxic traits such as bullying or people ignoring your needs.

Lastly, you’re going to mesh with some people. The people you end up talking to for a long time. It’s 1 in a thousand for me. So, wide net.

This reads as ar anxious attachment and underdeveloped boundaries.

Your needs and wants are valid OP. You deserve autonomy in your own life.

Your friend, intentionally or not, seems to be manipulating you and taking advantage, and you seem to be enabling that.

You should discuss having a partner with them, and what that would look like. They should work with you to promote your needs and wants and fulfillment. That’s what friends do.

This isn’t about changing the Iranian government or taking nukes away. Neither will happen even in full out war. Just going to be a lot of suffering and dead people. Many if which couldn’t care less about state affairs. When USA inevitably gets sucked into boots on the ground we’ll have another generation of youth either dead or returning with broken bodies achieving yet another Pyrrhic victory for the US. Yet another generations Vietnam.

The easiest solution is to send the power somewhere else where it can offset the use of fossil fuels. This solution is fraught with political hurdles, subject to market forces (due to privatization) and often grid compatability issues(looking at you Texas). It is, however, a time tested and common method for mitigating excess production.

Having knowledge in power electronics i can confidently say the DC output of solar is easily and regularly inverted in phase with grid. In fact, DC is often used for undersea cables switching AC to dc then back to AC, All at extremely high voltage and varying demand(up yo 600kV/600MW but varying by installation).

Wind turbines go online after the blades start spinning and connect to the grid in the same way as any other generator, controlled by internal electronics. Power is regulated through blade feathering and can be turned off as supply exceeds demand. This, other than for maintenance reasons, is why you might see one turbine spinning while the next is standing still. This capability actually means the grid is MORE stable with wind power.

Any further fluctuation is managed in the same way as conventional power generation.

You have the best hard seltzer full stop. Also how’s USA cosplay day lately?

*woman.

The word you meant is woman.

Makes sense, didn’t mean to yuck your yum. Just seemed like your reasons were surmountable with cheaper alternatives and an additional system seemed to me like a large cost. But you want the console, and it seems a solution that better fits your wants/needs.

Please, i don’t want to be self aware of my accent in my first language.

Also the two pronunciations of “the” noted above are different mouth shapes. “Uh” un butt versus “ee” in jeep.

You can use a controller on PC and also connect to this display with the same responsiveness and colors. I always thought consoles were for the exclusive games and to play with friends, not performance or graphics.

Beautiful! It’s also a bonus action reaction cantrip.

Thriller.

LUT - A table appears 10ft above your target and falls on it dealing 1d6 bludgeoning.

“LOOK! UP! TABLE!”

Don’t be so hyperbolic
