  • Solar is heat sensitive? I mean yes it operates at sub optimal conditions, but it still operates also during summer solar energy per m2 is higher due to more optimal earth tilt than during winter months.

    So solar panel operating at 15% of 100W absorbed produces 15W in summer. Same panel in winter operating at 20% capacity of 80W in winter makes 16W. Yes summer is lower output, but by not that much. And if it’s not heatwave conditions it’s even better.

    Anyway back to the main point, there solar panels operating at 48 degrees right now that I just visited this month.

    I know this woman that is a friend of a friend, she is hot by almost all definitions. She is i think 45 right now, but still looks fine. She is trying to find a guy to marry for the 6th time. Her plan is straight up pretend to be richer than she is, get married to rich growing people and get divorced and ask for significant money. Her first marriage last 10 years but 1st husband made millions while they were married and she got a 80m settlement. That’s when something clicked in her. She has “earned” (I say earned because that’s what she says she does) another 180m from 4 other marriages after that.

    She is a complete deplorable person, but fuck if she isn’t being smart here. She puts money in trust to retire well and make sure her daughter is well taken care of. Only thing I feel sad about is, she is teaching that to her daughter as well. Daughter is about to turn 18 in next year or two, and already talks about finding a billionaire for the daughter.

    Only thing I would give her, she does help her friends quite a bit. Our common friend actually got around 40k for downpayment for the house. And from what I see she does treat our common friend quite well despite our common friend being just another pleb like me.

    In my experience, attractive people are used to get what they want because society subconsciously favors them. I’m not generalising as there are plenty of attractive people that are good human beings. But I think attractive people tend to be narcissistic than their non attractive counterparts.



  • Oh yeah? I’m jealous you never had to worry about what job to do in the economy that will feed me. I had few months where I was going door to door, hoping someone wants their lawn mowed or windows washed so I can eat that night. And I’d say I’m privileged ones because I knew this kind man who was willing to lend me his tools to mow and to clean windows. I’m lucky because I got a scholarship for tuition for university and I don’t have to worry about what to eat anymore.

    But for the few months I relied only on window washing and lawn moving, I remember I at least had 4-5 days where despite going through 100s of houses, no one needing the services. But Please tell me how absolute of a control I had about what I eat with 0 earnings in that day and my networth being essentially 0. I guess absolute control I had was starve.
