    The secret service is probably not the elite agency people think it is. I bet once you get that job to protect a FPOTUS complacency creeps in. Since there hasn’t been an attack on former presidents on US soils since a long while before this incident. And it’s the other agencies that do most of the intel work. Also weren’t agents caught fucking prostitutes and beating up locals while being completely wasted when they were escorting the POTUS on a state visit a couple of years ago. Very professional wow.













  • You can install solar panels on agricultural land and still farm on it. You just need to install the panels vertically. It’s called agrivoltaics. The photovoltaic cells can actually produce electricity when they are exposed from either side. It’s just that normal solar panels are opaque on the bottoms side. So for a vertical installation you have to use bifacial panels which are transparent on the other side. And the drop in efficiency in a vertical installation isn’t much compared to a traditional installation, since both sides of one panel now produce electricity, even the shaded side that is only exposed to ambient light produces electricity. And they are much more efficient during their peak hours, since it’s much cooler during sunset and sunrise then the middle of the day. PV panels are less efficient when they get hot.

  • And Perez will probably be out after the summer break. Like I predicted at the beginning of the year. There was no chance that dude was going to improve after three underwhelming seasons in the most dominating car of those seasons.

    And this season where the competition is breathing down Max’s neck and the RB isn’t pulling away 30 seconds per race just amplifies the mismatch between Perez and the RB. He is not skilled enough to drive that car to the limit. What’s the point of keeping him on when he can’t even help Max at the front in a season where Red Bull has lost it’s edge.
