It's totally helping with my heating bill.

No complaints here.

I have a kind of weird one, I take pictures of construction equipment for banks/lenders. They only ask me to do it about a half-dozen times a year but it generally only takes an hour and it pays $100 so it's nothing to sneeze at. I don't necessarily need the extra money but it's so easy I haven't stopped doing it.

It's the illusion of consumer choice. Your electricity is always coming over Versant lines from Versant plants no matter what. These middle-man companies can only make a profit by charging more than Versant.

Web Design. Love it.

My wife did the same with a community solar salesmen. I was livid. We'll see how that pans out when it takes effect.

Thank you I am located in Seattle Washington I would really appreciate the help

That is an old old old one I am looking for the newer ones

Pretty much all the non-standard offers will be more expensive unless you jump thru their special hoops.

All the no-name providers are shell companies buying power from the same place the standard offer gets it and reselling it to you. Unless they can buy it for less than the state negotiates, you're going to end up paying more.

Most of them rely on you signing up for a teaser rate and forgetting (or being contractually locked in) when that ends.

Yeah I've decided to just stick with being screwed by versant. I was about to do the one that sent out the $100 "gift card" (it was supposedly just a credit towards the bill) but I backed out before confirming anything. Nothing bad happened. Idk if it was a scam but it felt scammy with the info I was given over the phone.

Yeah, and it always will. Price, quality and build speed are corners of a triangle that affect the end deliverable for pretty much everything. And of course, price is always as cheap as possible. So if you design and build to minimums, you’ll get recurring issues like this

Question is Are dealing with these cheaper than building the extra slack into the original system? If yes, then why spend extra money when it’s going to cost more in the end do “build right”?

Sounds like a great place to test the technology, if it works here, it works almost anywhere. Maine's rough on structures.

Most commercial buildings have flat roofs. It's not as though it's impossible to design a structure with a low pitch roof that withstand a heavy snow load.

Kinda chuckling at all the folks saying this is ugly. The model certainly looks nicer than any entry-level mobile home.

600 square feet, no shared walls with the neighbors, all the basic necessities, and a porch. These are being made in Maine, through the hardwork and innovation of Maine schools and organizations. What a fantastic project - I hope it helps many people.

Did he hide the money in that comically large hat?

Did he wear big hats to work?

probably just modeled after a university

You can tell this was designed by those whom have never owned a home before

> According to PEW research center, 68% of documented immigrants are Asian or Hispanic. If you add undocumented immigrants, that balloons to about 90% Hispanic or Asian (With around 7% being Hispanic), and only around 5% white.

You can't add undocumented immigrants into your stat about documented immigrants and then expect the stat to go up to 90% dummy. That's not how stats work. If the stats on documented immigrants are 68% Hispanic/Asian as you say, then that means the other 32% is something else. After all, it's DOCUMENTED.

Adding the number of undocumented immigrants, which we don't have numbers for because they are UNDOCUMENTED does not change the stats of documented immigrants. Therefore if you say 34% of documented immigrants are Asian and 34% of immigrants are Hispanic, then the remaining 32% are white or black. It evens out quite nicely actually. You can't say the majority of immigrants are brown anymore, can you, because Asian, white and black people are not referred to as brown by anyone except the most ignorant of people.

As far as undocumented, there is no way to know the exact numbers, but it's probably very similar, or if anything more white and Asian immigrants because white and Asian immigrants can get into the country easier via visas and then just never leave, as opposed to people south of the boarder who have to take much riskier chances to get in illegally.

What does "Olympic-style gym" mean

A flat roof in Maine? Snow is going to pile up on that.

I’ve been wondering this very same question but downeast area.

Some sort of plasticrete (Plastic and wood shavings mixed together). Flammable probably, but very hard to actually catch on fire. You'd basically have to try really hard to set it on fire, but once it goes up it'll burn like an old tire.

It sounds like Maine housing is involved, so rather than a resale value, they will probably be rented to low income families.
