Patented. UK Made Solar Roof Mounts. Installed in 90 seconds. Slates, interlocking tiles, plain tiles. No flashing, sealant or removing tiles/slates required.

[Thomas Moyes @solvemounts]

Our first solar slate roof mounting test performed last summer. Our seal held water for 3 weeks under 1.5m of water...until we needed the bolt back and had to dismantle it. First success!

@CurrentEnSol Yes, as long as the SE can see the grid, setting its export to 3.68 means it’ll stick to the limit whether it’s causing the exports or not. Same with Sig. Does the Sig gateway act like the SEs CT clamp?

@realfunnyeric Did you noticed how perfect agent was on Replit, how much faster it was when it was free?

The oldest roads ever found on earth are British. 🇬🇧

Rome gets the credit for roads.

But Britain had roads before Egypt had pyramids.🇬🇧

In 1970, a man named Ray Sweet was cutting peat in the Somerset Levels.

His spade hit wood.

Oak planks. Laid end to end across the marsh.

He'd just found the oldest road on earth.

Archaeologists dated the timber precisely — matching the growth rings against thousands of years of climate records.

3807 BC.

Nearly six thousand years old.

Beside it, buried in the same peat, they found a jade axe.

Not from Somerset. Not even from Britain.

From the Alps.

These people were trading across Europe six thousand years ago.

For decades, the Sweet Track was known as the oldest road ever found.

Then in 2009, archaeologists were digging next to Belmarsh Prison in London.

Four and a half metres underground.

They found timber.

Another road. Built in 4100 BC.

Three hundred years older still.

The pyramids weren't built until 2560 BC.

Britain's roads are older by more than a thousand years.

Our people. 🇬🇧

Who looked at the problem.

And solved it.

Six thousand years ago.

Did they teach you that?

I thought it was something I was doing wrong!

Would be good if replit started to hedge, allow codex, more Gemini 3.1, opus is obv the best but not when it’s burning through tokens saying “wait actually I’ll do this” and go off on a tangent.

It’s a shame Grok 4.2 is so far behind on coding!

[Thomas Moyes @solvemounts]

@db_fink Agree, the CfD prices are ridiculous, it shouldn’t get any subsidy, that’s probably £600m that should have been invested elsewhere, instead it’s just another inflation linked liability that’s earning a yeild at bill payers expense

[Thomas Moyes @solvemounts]

It’s ridiculously cheap for buildings, 2 years ago my breakeven for a commercial unit was around 30p/W. Had farmers get payback in 2.5/3 years after tax relief (it’s plant and machinery), it’ll last 30+, if you can use it it’s a no brainer. Utility scale will be cheaper but grid costs and lead times will probably double that price. Payback will be much higher than on roof.

@jonburkeUK Month*

[Thomas Moyes @solvemounts]

@jonburkeUK Quick question, why is Henry Hub (US Natural Gas internationally traded) at 18 year lows WHILST solar deployment in Texas is at record highs?

[Thomas Moyes @solvemounts]

@sarah_go_green @speak2thegeek @raimonick Ask Grok for very simple steps to set it up.

Then ask it if you can connect the API to an AI agent and just talk to it to change things.

Nothing in software is difficult anymore!

[Thomas Moyes @solvemounts]

@watt_direction “In just 3 years”….whats stopping that being on demand?

[Thomas Moyes @solvemounts]

@grok @FutureJurvetson @farzyness Can they scale atomic level chips? It’s sounds really expensive and fragile?

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧 There is something in most kitchens around the world. 🫖

You have probably used one today.

A Scottish scientist invented it in London in 1892.

And almost nobody knows who he was.

His name was James Dewar. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Born in Kincardine, Scotland. 1842. Chemist. Physicist. One of the finest scientific minds Britain had ever produced.

🏅 Nominated for the Nobel Prize eight times. ❌ Never won.

In 1892 he was trying to store liquid hydrogen. Not make a flask for your tea. ☕

He built a vessel with two glass walls and pumped the air out of the gap between them.

A vacuum. No air. No heat transfer. ❄️

It worked perfectly. ✅

He didn't patent it.

He just didn't. He was a scientist. Not a businessman. The science was enough.

A German glassblower named Reinhold Burger had been watching. 👀

He took the design. Made it sturdier. Patented it. Named it Thermos. In 1904 it went on sale. It made a fortune. 💰

Dewar sued. ⚖️

The court agreed he was the inventor.

But because he hadn't patented it there was nothing they could do.

He got nothing.

The word Thermos eventually became so common it lost its trademark entirely. Just a word now. For something a Scottish scientist invented in a London laboratory. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧

Every flask you've ever owned. Every cup of tea kept warm on a cold morning. ☕ Every building site. Every school trip. Every football pitch. ⚽

James Dewar.

Did they teach you his name? 🇬🇧

These islands have thousands of stories the world has forgotten. We find them. We tell them. We put them in front of millions.

You help us make that possible.

@Kevin_Maguire Isn’t something like 65% fuel duty and VAT? Retailers GP is something like 9%? Seems like deflection, get people looking at the 9% and not your 65%…🤔

[Thomas Moyes @solvemounts]

@simone_m_romeo @Plinz Have you considered people have been saying this about Musk for decades? PayPal, Tesla is a fraud, Space X is impossible, neurolink, Boring company, XAi will fail, it’s just your turn to be anti Elon?

You’ll never please 100% of people all the time

[Thomas Moyes @solvemounts]

@PeterDiamandis @grok is the 4 month figure accurate if you remove the poorest 90% of the world? And focus only on developed countries like the US?

[Thomas Moyes @solvemounts]

@nickgiva1 @citrini I asked Grok 4.2 if it was familiar with the research note and to think carefully, what would it do?

It’s pretty good

@realfunnyeric Would this be good for Agent in Replit?
