I have them on my roof.  No I don’t wipe them. We have too much sunshine as it is.

why was it so costly? how much did cost to mine the silicon, aluminium, copper, lithium, plastic, manufactured, installed, wiped clean every month? (they're major pain in the ass to maintain) ... if it's too costly that it needs taxpayer subsidies, it's very likely a bullshit losing proposition, that some grifters are scamming and ripping off taxpayers with ... usually.

ooh thank you. a new oxymoron for my collection:
'functional government'

It’s a one in 20 year hailstorm on panels with an ROI of 3 years and an effective life of 10 years.   Not to mention the hailstorm only hit a small part of Sydney.  

As for the rest, it’s 2018.  Not believeing in science is only fashionable on YouTube conspiracy channels.   There’s no scientific proof rings as hollow as the cigarette companies that still claim there is no link between cigarette smoking and lung cancer. 

... ever seen what happens to a solar array in a golf-ball sized hailstorm?

Just more risks/costs that coal, oil, gas, nuclear plants are robust against or have amortised/solved already ... no-one has all the answers and the biggest problem are those that think they do and assume authority above the natural market of ideas and solutions to enforce their will on others. At huge expense for everyone inevitably.

The environmentalism cult in it's current pseudo-scientific/romantic form has become a plague upon humanity, there is no doubt about it that now. A descent into superstition and romanticism seems to be accelerating with the collapse of the fiat/debt monetary regimes (based on economics faking as science anyway) ... things are not as bad as being lied about but large coastal populations are prone to regular disasters (fossil history is quite definitive about that), so disasters are always in the 'news'.

The planet is as 'healthy' (whatever subjective gaia bullshit that means) as it has ever been, and in fact Earth is quite agnostic about the state of it's inhabitants. Any large asteroid strike, geomagnetic reversal, geomagnetic collapse, true polar wander, X-class solar flare strike, or supervolcanic eruption phase belittles all the pathetic, politically-motivated environmental alarmism when Earth's human habitability is viewed objectively.

Newsflash, the earth has barely warmed in 35 years (~0.2C at last measure) ...

and latest discovery of solar physics models points towards that we are heading into a grand solar minimum for the next 2-3 decades ... typically associated with longer, brutal winters and large-scale crop losses

You could always just move somewhere without a functional government. Parts of Somalia and Afghanistan would
be obvious choices.  Or maybe the Papua New Guinea jungle? The outer islands of the Solomons are pretty lawless.  And you could go today.   It’s not like they have a government to stop you.

forecasting a bumpy road ahead

The biggest problem I see with the partial government shutdown is that it won't be permanent. The other problem is that it's too small in scope.

gah. you're right. tired here too. medium term lol. sleep tight

LONGterm never has been bearish

Of to HODLrest
Eyes falling down ..... good night WO hodlers

Obviously not. I'm only guessing at another leg up tonight without any more pullback. Medium and long term is clearly very bearish.

I expect it to be much worse that that. This 'up' action is no bull run. Not a chance.

finex prices right?
maybe but

The most interesting bit is the bitch in the background filming the whole scene - as if one video operator wasn't enough.

It might be even worse than that, actually.

franky vs maxwell is getting q entertaining

A retest of $3.81k for support might happen first...just sayin.

actual evidence/footage of r0ach after a day @the WO

I don't know to laugh or to pity this lost soul COCKr0ach. It reminds me of some guy I knew, who slowly developed schizophrenia with exactly the same symptoms. One day he drowned himself because of his demons. RIP. Regarding this BS statement: shocking speed in reduction of supply [for the silver I guess]. This is either a wet dream or a manipulation lie. There is not even a slightest reduction in the supply and never will be. As for the price, 20 years at least are needed for the bear market to come to a halt. And even then no upward movement is guaranteed. As for the second statement: unlike bitcoins which nobody actually needs for anything. This is so true as to say that men need only food, and money are just useless paper. With that logic, silver is also not needed, except if you want to tie it around your neck and throw yourself in the water, like the guy I knew. May be writing BS posts here is the last step before this painful destiny, I guess. Imagine that - Bitcoin price went from 175$ where it bottomed in Jan 2015 (around the time our scizo-r0ach sold) and reached 20K$ in Dec 2017. At the same time r0ach bought silver because, you know, it is very useful to keep it in his basement. And the price crashed from 45 to 10$. And like a drawning guy catching a straw, he hopes some n00b can be influenced by his scizo arguments and buy silver to become like him - poor and mad.

Very few people in US are getting (or will be getting) a pension.
Those who do, typically have a "bad" pension.
49% income coverage  vs 63% for OECD.
Just numbers:

The "screw" part still applies.

I plan to work as long as I can, probably.
