The Magnetic Pole has moved over to the Eastern Hemisphere in the past two years taking the auroras with it. It’d take quite an event to see them today.

Track solar flares in March you may even be able to see an Aurora

I would drive to the Hancock Overlook on the Kanc. I’ve gone there several times. It’s a pretty spot on moonlit nights, and very dark on moonless nights, but easy to get to. I’ve taken my small telescope there a few times in the past, but there is an active amateur astronomy community in NH, so search that out. You son could look though some of these folks high end scopes and he might get hooked on astronomy. I did as a kid…

You may want to hit up New Hampshire Astronomical Society on FB to see if they have any recommendations.

So the solution here is they should have granted him the variance and then taken up IJ’s offer to button up the current law so it doesn’t become a free for all with signs littering the Whites which I think we can all agree is the original intent of the law and one we could all support.

I’ll rent you my house in the lakes region for $6,000 a month. Two full baths, three bedroom. 2200sq foot home on a private two acres in the lakes region. 😂 kidding but welcome. Hope you enjoy it and yes it is expensive here in NH

Your inability to disproves what is sourced shows my statement to be spot on .. thanks

They peaked in highschool and even then nobody liked them.

Someone called in a bomb threat against a specific flight to Florida that hadn't taken off yet.

So my guess would be either someone trying to fuck up someone else's vacation plans or someone was going to miss their flight and had the galaxy brained idea of doing this to delay the departure.

Either way its something very very stupid. Im sure of it.

It’s less an exception to the rule as much as it’s a decision of what constitutes a sign.

It mentions in the article that the town allows murals but takes exception to the fact that the mural depicts baked goods. One can gather from the basis of the suit that there is nothing in the letter of the law about mural content so they should not be able to say that that is not a mural based on subject matter.

As far as small town politics is concerned, one board member absolutely can control the whole board. Think of a typical friend group and how often everyone falls in step behind the strongest most popular personality. Small town politics is typically the same way. There’s always certain individuals one doesn’t want to cross or they get iced out.

Small town politics is also strongly influenced by personal feelings. Everyone knows everyone and everything about each other. It’s always possible that there’s some bad blood involved. Long standing personal dislikes or slighted feelings making someone want to make life difficult for the owner. Total speculation but often when one an established business sells there were more interested parties than just the one who gets the place. That can lead to anger at the person who “won” and petty actions against them.

Username is concerning in this context

What the fuck is wrong with you?

Who is the sponsor of this advertisement?

F these government tyrants

They have volunteer military, police, fire, teachers for those that can’t afford them. You get to repair your own roads and runs on the honor system of not destroying the unmaintained public lands. Of course there aren’t many public lands as the companies that have the strongest militia took them over.

It’s a great place!

They shared a wide array of sources. What’s your problem?

No we dont

lol an article from an org that touts the “Austrian school of economics” oh like the one no actual economist takes seriously?

Lol@ "things to do". Pursue, or look for new hobbies would be my recommendation.

I can't believe you thought leaving me a page long comment and spending that much time digging through propaganda sites was how you thought you were going to prove you're not living in a bubble consuming too much propaganda.

You're hopeless.

North Conway right at the base of Mount Washington in a valley. Has a lot more charm and less crime then southern NH. Just don't go any further North than Mount Washington

The Lazard paper has solar with battery storage at around 6 or 7 cents per kilowatt hour all in, while nuclear power comes in around 14 to 20 cents all in. So even when paired with batteries, renewables are cheaper than nuclear power by a lot.

Also, we're a long way away from a mostly renewable grid and for the next decade or two, using some natural gas when we need to support intermittent renewables will give us a relatively clean grid at a very reasonable cost.

The other challenge for nuclear power is that it's not flexible enough to economically follow load. That means it can only satisfy around 50% or so of a grid's total daily load. So at most it can provide half the solution, and for around 2 or three times the cost of better alternatives.

I'm not anti nuclear and strongly support the generous funding for research on advanced designs that was included in the bills signed by President Trump and also President Biden in the past few years. I also support the new production tax credit for nuclear power that was included in the Inflation Reduction Act. Nuclear power should get credit for its carbon free output just like other clean energy sources.

It'd be great if one of the promising next-gen technologies works out. The trouble is that we don't have anything cost competitive right now and the promising designs on the drawing board are at least 2 decades away from mass deployment.

It does change the end game in that it can't just be continually more intermittent sources...

That is without some other energy storage solution which negatively impacts the economics and most of which have their own environmental issues.

Meanwhile nuclear works day or night regardless of weather conditions...
