What does that have to with Puerto Rico? over 4000 people have died thanks to the Trump administration doing fuck all to help, because of their negligence and incompetence. The sheer failure to handle this utter disaster should be a cause for national and international outrage ], this should be dominating frontpage news, but no the US media is more concerned about Roseanne.Antiboyscout wrote: ↑Sat Jun 02, 2018 5:28 pm https://www.independent.co.uk/news/worl ... 17986.html
One sided empathy only opens yourself up for exploitation.
This can be a place where people who disagree fundamentally can still discuss things without resorting to tribalism, bile, and hatred, but instead engage in rational discourse even on the most contentious of topics.

More like if Puerto Rico didn't depend on fragile solar panels for 40% of it's electricity.unknownsample wrote: ↑Sun Jun 03, 2018 5:20 pmWell if the Trump administration hadn't messed up in the first place and you still haven't explained the relevancy of the article you linked to.Antiboyscout wrote: ↑Sun Jun 03, 2018 4:04 pmTrump Trump Trump, it's all Trump.

That's wrong. A large majority (93%) of the electricity capacity in Puerto Rico is supplied by Fossil Fuels. The balance is supplied by wind, solar, and hydroelectric sources.Antiboyscout wrote: ↑Sun Jun 03, 2018 5:41 pmMore like if Puerto Rico didn't depend on fragile solar panels for 40% of it's electricity.
Their infrastructure wasn't ideal, but yeah, up until the Once-in-a-Hundred-Year type hurricane decimated their power systems they had an at-least adequate power grid. The toughest part has been trying to restore power in isolated rural areas.TGLS wrote: ↑Sun Jun 03, 2018 12:08 amSheer curiosity; did Puerto Rico have reliable power before the hurricane?Fuzzy Necromancer wrote: ↑Sat Jun 02, 2018 8:58 am So, Puerto Rico still doesn't have reliable power,
