This X account was formerly my only account. Soon after upgrading to paid status I lost access to it - not sure why.
So I opened a new account under my name John Bennetts, with pseudonym rotarybloke.
I can't now get into the rotarybloke account.
Does anybody know how I can choose which account I login to?
@EdnStuff@peter_tulip@clairlemon How Ed came to that conclusion is obscure. The link is to a $35 subscription. Details on the link do not justify Ed's claim.
@DTDavisPhD@peter_tulip Google is your friend. The information is not hard to find.
Maybe start at the bottom of the list here and read up: https://t.co/h0Wnrcj5PV
Alternatively search for vaccines individually, for more details.
Refocussing... I am an Australian. I note that you are in London.
Lucky Britain, with no ban on nuclear power so the discussion has restarted after a drawn-out and expensive interruption to your nuclear power plans.
Australia's national grid manager, AEMO, now faces weekly concerns over banning of nuclear power in a high RE system.
@KathMorrow90 IMHO, Australia's party system is not a mirror of USA's is primarily due to (a) voting systems for the Senate and House of Reps and (b) Massive confidence in the AEC.
We are very lucky.
Oliver, that is not the majority opinion. Renewables now have a pre-paid guaranteed range of subsidies that have no equals in the fossil fuel marketplace. Nuclear power in Australia has been immorally completely shut out for 30 to 60 years and counting.
I look forward to seeing FF's shut out by the electrical power market, not due to nuclear power or legislation alone, but due to the combined effects of "All of the Above" in a fair energy market which includes transmission, distribution, storage and firming as well as the value of damage to the public's Commons, all allocated to the users fairly and not lumped onto those with the least capacity to pay: the YOPSI.
YOPSI = Young, Old, Poor, Sick & Invalided.
Ditto, except that in my case the Captcha device in the registration process does not believe that I am human, despite multiple tries.
I intend to sit quietly as an observer before deciding whether or not to transfer, but one thing is certain. I can no longer function effectively on TwiXter - it is full of loony posts.
Thanks for taking the time to post. You have explained perhaps 1% of the issue.
Tesla and its related companies know no limits to their hunger for public money, whether in USA or elsewhere.
German forest clearing, miscellaneous state and national capital contributions abound.
Then there are share market antics. Recent rises in Tesla's market valuation exceed the total Of Blue Oval's market valuation. This has nix to do with true value... or does it? It has to be related to shareholder expectation that Brand X will gain substantially from newly establishing access to the inner workings of the US Government, the largest and deepest trough of public money in the world.
My expectation is that Elon will, as he has done so often be another pig lining up at the government money trough.
The only difference will be that he will be even closer to the deep end and in a better position to control the flow.
Which of his public companies do not rely on multiple streams of public money?
@CJHarvey56@AlboMP@TonyHWindsor@RobOakeshott1 I note that you referred to quality Independents and to "the Greens".
Given the Greens' aggressive, relentless sniping and blocking of Labor in recent years, I agree.
Current Greens do not represent quality in any comparison to the Windsor/Oakshott duo of days past.
@xskinn@fretfulpig Still here, Ian? I expected you to migrate by now to where I am going as soon as I can pass an "interesting" Captcha quiz which I failed twice yesterday.
@JonesHowdareyou The mine removes up to 200 metres of soil, rock and coal as it marches across the valley.
The total moved on that site is of the order of 1000 million tonnes.
It is not surprising that earthquakes happen as the ground adjusts to the changed loads.
Is not he on gardening leave currently?
At $18k or so weekly pay, buying time while doing nothing for the stipend is a pretty attractive wicket.
I'm not in the least surprised that he is slow to depart.
He eventually must leave an organisation of his own shaping with exactly no runs on the board, despite having plenty of work on its plate.
Another one to add to a growing list of influential supporters of nuclear power.
It's time for Australia's electrical & construction trades unions & Greens politicians to rethink their stances or be left further behind.

Then he comes back, claiming 30 years of experience data handling.
I could claim more than that, but my point is not personalities... it is factual. Germany's electricity is excessively expensive, is driving industry away and this is despite spending hundreds of billions of euros eliminating nuclear power from their grid while retaining coal and gas.
Of course I am sensitive to the German problems, because they mirror Australia's Eastern states so very closely.
This will be over for me very soon. I am on my way to Bluesky, but not today. Too busy. Hopefully tomorrow.
