Everyone please take a moment and have a little empathy with GSY. Bad day for them. Very bad day.
QuoteMud field to actual deliveries inside 1 year.Hats off to Tesla for this achievement.
I think I supported you, that's special. What is special about the others?
As for believing that nobody needs personal vehicles? That is normally a position held by City dwellers and students who have 0% visibility of the real world.
Those of us who live in the country know different.
Rivian’s R1T pickup starts at $69k. For about that price, you could get a cybertruck with 2.9 second 0-60, more (500+ mile) range, and 50% more towing capacity. The cybertruck is not just a pickup truck. It is a utility truck with sports car performance.
That's how we roll in Germany. On Sundays, we meet in big townhalls and consume energy never produced. Great tradition!
German electricity come mostly from fossil fuels.
Bullshit!

As I commented to Neven, running a Tesla on main grid in the US would not meet the current EU regulations for g/km CO2. Germany is at the upper end in the EU at 77g for an EV charging, on average, on the grid.
As for products which have not even been invented yet? Solar Roof 3? Invented, manufactured, delivered in test samples. Announced as a product to be ordered from the website with "short term" delivery times.
You will note I didn't need to bold that. Tesla does the bolding for me.
As a consolation I watch Tesla and their excellent approach to EV and other FF free initiatives destroy you corrosive beliefs as time goes by..
You have blinkers on. When we call you on it, instead of proving your point, you call us names and provide cherry picked figures.
A single example please.
Erm, let me see.
How about Tesla is going to fail in Jan 2019 and Giga3 is going to be a mud field when it fails?
No?
Tesla cannot manufacture cars at a profit, not even one, they will have to keep borrowing forever and will eventually go bust?
No?
Solar roof 3 is a fake and they will never ship any?
Granted that one needs a little time to play out....
For each of these predictions we were roundly abused for doubting you and called idiots and morons.
Tick Tock.

QuoteI was told "sig" has blocked you from personal messaging.This happens automatically when the user has put you on the ignore list, it's not a separate blocking as far as I know.
As your numerous and often sequential posts are low on content and high on mockery and name calling, I expect Sig is is not the only one to have taken the rational route and blocked you.
The world is the shape it is today because of centuries of progress. It will not just change to something else because we deny ourselves the fruits of that progress. It will change to something else by using the fruits of that progress to go forward to a better world.
Yes, that something else will be 3 to 4 °C of warming. For starters.QuoteA retrograde society stagnates and stagnated evolution is pruned by nature pretty quickly. If you could find a talking Dodo, they could explain it to us.
Dodo explains: Homo sapiens exterminated us.
I know I'm living in Austria, and so I should shut up. I also don't know a poor man who couldn't bike to work, and so praise Tesla SUVs. But my problem is not with your viewpoint, my problem is that it isn't your viewpoint. It's conditioned, regurgitated, unimaginative thought that you are just repeating like the obedient schoolboy you have been all your life (and taght your children to be as well). That's how we got here.
And now you're fighting for that conditioned thought to remain dominant, even though the numbers show you where it'll lead to: 3 to 4 °C warming, for starters. And numbers are supposed to be your forte. I guess you expect your offspring will be useful enough to concentrated wealth to be allowed to enter Elysium.
Why don't you go to some forum for old folks who think neoliberalism is the god that ended all gods, and complain about stupid, radical, ungrateful young people there? Hail the system, our benefactor, and may it live forever, and all that.
We already live in a retrograde, stagnated society. We've been living in it for decades and it won't change into 'something else', unless systemic, radical changes are implemented. You may not like that, but that's because you're old and your brain is too conditioned to adapt. Support the young, instead of keeping them down, and maybe one day they'll forgive you.
Early loss of ice area inside the Arctic Basin as well as outside easily explains the accumulated heat. Check out the series of attached charts (big thanks to Tealight / Nico Sun for providing these in real time). Note the AWP calculation does not take clouds/weather into account, just solar angles and ice/water albedo.
Not surprisingly, the same areas with the highest anomalies are the same ones with relatively delayed refreeze. I expect this pattern to continue in November and December.
Tesla guarantees you will save money with solar!
When we get the next load of DOOM BANKRUPTCY from gsy, here is some context.

Grim Start to U.S. Auto Sales Stirs Alarm That Collapse Is Here
- Toyota, Honda, Nissan suffer double-digit drops in September
This insolation graph gets posted from time to time, but I think it is missing a cruicial component for best understanding. So I added it. At approx 350, the insolation/radiation balance seems to be achieved.
As we enter the final month of melt, we can see that pretty much all the sun energy excess is in the past, and now a good stirring is what the melt doctor should write a prescription for.
(Once the ESS finishes melting out in a week or two, conditions for cyclone creation will be as ideal as possible in the Arctic.)
Do you have a paper that you can quote to back this figure up?
... many people today fail to appreciate how difficult it’ll be to sustain colonies on the Red Planet.
We have sustained a small “colony” on the International Space Station for 20 years.
If this prepping thread were real (and not just for daydreaming and amusement) then you would be talking about the best ways to grow food low-tech, the best edible mushrooms, how to bake bread from acorn (like Bruce Steele), the best ways to get clean water, hunting with bows, discussing whether goats or sheep make more sense around a farm, the most resistant fruit-trees that can be grown without spraying, mudbrick-techniques, etc. I think if the proverbial SHTF most of you won't last a week. Sorry. Time to get real.
Patagonia would have a good climate, but the scale of suitable climate in the Southern Hemisphere would be much smaller and allow for something much more primitive than the N. Hemisphere.
By the way, the first flights of the huge rocket are nearing for the creation of a Martian colony.
The heat has to travel much farther and faster (away from shore) than it has previously in order to maintain the melting. momentum. Otherwise, we're looking at a relatively inert body of warm water.
If society truly collapsed, all the nuclear reactors would meltdown and the Northern Hemisphere would be uninhabitable within weeks, and the Southern Hemisphere would probably follow within a few months. So you would probably just be dead.
Here's an interesting article on selectively breeding cows with lower levels of methane-producing bacteria in their digestive tracts.
Predicting the weather 2 weeks out. Cool.
Where you see a prediction, there is none.
I think the weather would have to return to not only ridging but a dipole anomaly by no later than July 25th to have a shot at the record.
It just doesn't look like that is happening.
Wipneus describes Fram volume export as near normal for the month based on piomas data.
Taking the Pacific side as a whole 2019 currently leads the pack. Compare and contrast with the Atlantic side:
OK, so the snow is melting. This happens at this time of year.Yeah, and the same happens with sea ice, and with the frost in my freezer if I unplug it.
Dumbest thing I read, your entire comment.
Should we then close the thread and talk about football? Come on, ice is gonna melt, more or less who knows, who cares, hey its freaking normal in summer!!
How snow melts out in May and June, on continents and on ice, is relevant to what’s gonna happen to ice, be it causality or correlation, and I pay good attention to it.
Calma there buddy! I think you are reading Gerontocrat's comment with some weird lenses on.
Assuming BAU:
blah blah blah
Assuming Not BAU:
