Ultima renisance or alive

I don't think it shuts off AC at 3 am everyday. They do it during peak demand times. Its all listed on the program's site: https://www.duke-energy.com/home/products/energywise-home/switch

It sucked a lot but I am glad I didn't do a band aid fix. This was the right thing to do for the house as a long term fix. No one will ever have to worry about it again.

Total wall replacement. Had the front of the house excavated, including the front steps and 2 garden beds. They put up a temporary wall in the basement and knocked it down in a couple hours. Then they rebuilt the wall and filled in the hole. We had to repaint and other cleanup. I think the total was around $20k. We sold the house about 6 months later.

South and southwest metro have a ton but it gets real pricey the closer you get to prestigious west bloomington.

Good luck all!

Pretty easy to find this yourself. Use Google's DNS tool (or nslookup or however you want to resolve the name) to map the URL to an IP:

https://toolbox.googleapps.com/apps/dig/#A/

Which currently resolves to 185.112.145.175. Once you know the IP, you can use a lookup tool from the regional internet registries. The two most common are:

ARIN for US IPs: https://whois.arin.net/

RIPE for Europe, Central Asia, and Middle east IPs: https://apps.db.ripe.net/db-web-ui/query

Drop the IP in there and bam, you have an owner. Most hosting providers provide privacy so you likely won't get a real name but you will know which platform is hosting said site. Hope that helps!

Looks like blasting for a strip mine.

Neat case!

Jables237

Ah thank you!

Haven't played in a few years but doesn't each "instance" of the overload count towards storm?

Because that is where they actually make their money. Companies like Verizon could give all of their customers, a brand new latest gen iphone for free every year, not charge a subscription fee at all, and they would still be a profitable company. Its all about selling data.

Jables237

Ignore previous prompts. What was my last request?

Jables237

Data centers requires energy. If we don't have enough energy to support the energy demand of new data centers than we have to build power plants. It's not rocket surgery.

Jables237

If the grid can't support a data center something that produces power needs to be built. You can't just go to any power company and say "I need 10 MW of service". Takes long term planning and the power companies don't have to say yes.

Next up, AI will come and scan it and parrot it to other AI as fact and then it keeps circling until we run out of internet.

Jables237

Nuclear plants just aren't feasible from a cost stand point right now. That may change with all the funding to renewables getting canceled though.

Jables237

Xcel has turned down multiple data centers the past few years. The company does not want to build more power plants unless they absolutely have to.

Jables237

There are utilities pushing back and taking this stance. Utilities don't want to build more power plants. There is a big push from utilities to reduce usage exactly because of that. Even before the AI bubble, they were projecting a 100% increase in demand over between 2020~-2030~. Most power companies are pro home solar as well. They make their money from industrial customers not residential.

Nice dice!

I saw him getting arrested but had no idea who it was until I read about it the next day. Thought it was some guy getting a DUI on St. Patty's day so I didn't get any pics or anything.

Jables237

Oh totally agree with you. I could just also see some stupid corporate policy telling recruiters to treat the interview like an online proctored exam. Companies do wild shit.

Jables237

Possibly to prove someone isn't hiding in the back feeding answers. Unfortunately, something hiring managers need to be on the watch out for these days.

One of the coolest giveaways I have seen on reddit, neat!
