Green energy isn’t a very profitable business and probably never will be, at least compared to oil. That’s why it’s so challenging to make the switch. So it’s not exactly a prize.

I have my Frontier fiber installation scheduled for later this month. I'm positively giddy for my call to cancel Comcast once I know the new setup works.
No matter how many times they rebrand or try to bring people back, they're a shitty company and I'll do my damnedest to never give Comcast another penny.

Coming out with an app to compete with something that already blew up. Yeah, sounds like it’ll work the second time around. Add me on Google+ so we can chat about it /s

Our household hasn't had cable TV in years, better part of a decade at this point, but Spectrum has been, sadly, the *best* ISP we've had. And we've had Google Fiber and T-Mobile 5G in the past 3 years. So maybe they've found their niche as both Google and T-Mobile failed miserably.
And I'm so sick of "Up to 1Gb"...either it gets 1Gb or it doesn't. It's fucking binary. If you're advertising 1Gb, you need to deliver. Especially when they trot out bullshit like, "That's not intended for Wifi...only direct Ethernet connections." Who still connects home computers physically anymore aside from networking nerds like me? And even then I'm still maxing out at like 600Mbps.

Didn't they have a chat AI so convincing an ex-engineer is suing them on behalf on the AI saying it's sentient?

For the alt-right to pretend to think about issues outside of Republican propaganda is hilarious.
Ah, you participate in antivax subs.
Stupid people think they are smart by ignoring experts for the political figures they follow.

Having a territorial monopoly can only help so much when your organization tries it's best to be the worst it can be.

Ah yes, idiots always think random facebook posts are the same as actual experts.
In this case the official line from the Republican party was lies and misinformation about covid and vaccines. Is that what you mean? The lies of the alt-right?
​
Oh, are you an antivax moron pretending the CDC lied?

Hey Shell, what are you doing about the Nigerian delta you’ve trashed?
What you say? You mean nothing?
Yeah, don’t use Shell for your fuel needs. Go elsewhere.

Shell is interesting study/company. Back in 2021 they released a white paper claiming that peak oil was reached in 2019, and that whitepaper market the shift in Shell as a company. They reduced investment in new oil rigs and wells, they pocket (or rather pay out) extra profits (from money not invested into new oil wells) and they seem to be trying to switch both from "growing demand" to "stable demand" and from "oil company" to "renewable company". They might pull it off, they might not, but this will be studies for decades.

Well, track down their power providers. I guarantee they're buying offsets to make that claim for you.

It's unclear what misinformation they are talking. And the fact-checkers, are they really checking the facts?

Like most of Europe. Which is still funding the war. I don't think anyone funded Putin's war more than the Western world.
