I hope another commentor can come along to explain things to you, I currently am uninterested.

It’s not canceling, it is simply not raising it amongst people who are opposed to transphobia.

I do enjoy their videos, as they are quite a good source in that regards.

The Onion.

Don’t use nextcloud, even as a professional IT admin / software engoneer it was clunky and complicated to setup and maintain.

It’s also slow.

Immich hosting options or OpenCloud are a better bet.

Blinds can technically be extended but “open” to both light in, and minor light absorption

For renters.

You raise a good point!

I plan to use EcoFlow powerbanks in self power mode to have them be a a UPS that is supplemented bt the sun, which lets me get by the “no power into wall” limitations.

Those would be really nice!

Thanks for bringing up flexible connectors! I didn’t consider that before.

Would blinds be better for not needing more flexible connectors, or worse?

We don’t (yet) have flexible panels that would survive the abuse that curtains experience.

Vertical surfaces are not nearly as effective for the majority of cases in capturing solar radiation.

But blinds then would be perfectly fine no? They can adjust their angle and aren’t flexible.

Windows have lots of obstructions that reduce the effectiveness of a solar panel.

A 10% loss is not bad, even 30% isn’t too bad, because every cent counts.

Putting solar panels behind an extra layer of glass that would need to be kept pristine would be counter productive.

You don’t clean your windows yearly?

The voltages involved in solar panels would create an added source of danger inside the house.

Home/Commercial battery systems like EcoFlow don’t seem dangerous at all to me. I feel like the danger you’re describing is minimal with the wattages you’d get from window panels.

I worked 64 hours a week to pay for my College Tuition.

That is plus 18 hours of classes, and 18 hours of studies a week.

This was for the cheapest college near me at a rate of $4000 a semester.

I love being slaved to the point my grades were low only because of my work. When I saved enough / got scholarships, I was able to stop working, and my grades became a 4.

So in summary, slaving to afford a chance to have a low grade compared to those with wealth who can get to focus all their time to college.

BWHAHAH Shafiq fits him so much

Thank you very much Sis! ✨

I’d like a source on the silica needles?

Buy dimmer, filament style LEDs. They don’t burn themselves out hy heat at least.

Otherwise you’re facing planned obsolescence.

We have that already and I’ve eaten it.

A kid traded my shiny bakugan for a black one at lunch after asking to “borrow” mine. This was during elemental school.

I hold that grudge against your Ryan, I have kept you in the back of my mind for decades and will enact vengeance eventually.

Alibaba, They’re so far away and big that no one can touch them.

My apologies, my intention was more academic focused, and I failed to consider the perspective of it being considered “just leave” alongside the monetary concerns of my statement.

To elaborate:

Some academic scholarships overseas offer stipends, and even work study. Which could help the original poster with filling out their resume, have a place to be, and even find more offerings or places to be.

Leave the country for a masters / doctorate scholarship elsewhere.

Your skills will always find use elsewhere, don’t have loyalties to a nation that cares not for your death.
