In the near future, CA will have scheduled rolling black outs as the grid meets its match with growing EV mandates and its demand on the power grid. The price of a CA kWh will continue to soar as a result.

To meet this power demand, CA will continue to quietly import dirty energy, while claiming to be “green”. What a deluxe sh_t show that many Californians are financially suffering from with no leadership course correction in sight.

I think California and every other Blue state needs to get ready to fight Trump on every front. I was depressed after the election but it is time to get work. We need to make safe place for migrants, safe place for Federal workers, safe place for clean energy, safe place for women, for any marginalized person. We can endure for four years and keep the worse of what Trump has offer at bay. The real problem is how to fix issues like fake news, poorly educated people who vote, letting billionaires run the county, how do we stop that. I am not naive I blame Biden to extent. He should have blocked Musk from buying twitter, he should have but some laws on the books to clean up fake news, and had some tests for people before they are allowed to vote. He should have gone after the insurrectionists with his full force.

California has been exporting its brown cloud to Wyoming for decades as they preach their sanctimonious, green, nonsense to the world. It is high time they paid their own bills.

Plutonium Shots on NIF.

Tri-Valley Cares needs to be on this if they aren't already. We need to make sure that NNSA and LLNL does not make good on promises to pursue such stupid ideas as doing Plutonium experiments on NIF. The stupidity arises from the fact that a huge population is placed at risk in the short and long term. Why do this kind of experiment in a heavily populated area? Only a moron would push that kind of imbecile area. Do it somewhere else in the god forsaken hills of Los Alamos. Why should the communities in the Bay Area be subjected to such increased risk just because the lab's NIF has failed twice and is trying the Hail Mary pass of doing an SNM experiment just to justify their existence? Those Laser EoS techniques and the people analyzing the raw data are all just BAD anyways. You know what comes next after they do the experiment. They'll figure out that they need larger samples. More risk for the local population. Stop this imbecilic pursuit. They wan...

Trump is to gut the labs.

The budget has a 20% decrease to DOE office of science, 20% cut to NIH. NASA also gets a cut. This will  have a huge negative effect on the lab. Crazy, juts crazy. He also wants to cut NEA and PBS, this may not seem like  a big deal but they get very little money and do great things.

Rumor corner

LLNS may have excluded the wrong people in last VSSOP? The exclusions were based on outdated job categories and related skills. ULM are now thinking that in the future, job categories and functional areas will have to be re-defined. The next VSSOP/ISP will be based on the new categories and functional areas. The questions I have are: 1) Why didnt they think of that before the transition. It seems like their style is “change things as you go”. Planning is out the window! 2) Who will give input on the new changes? The next RIF apparently is going to be more lucrative than the VSSOP. Depending on the length of employment, a RIFed person, not only gets their 1 week pay per year of service but also from 30 to 120 days notice, essentially 30 to 120 days pay. Please feel free to comment on the rumors or add new ones you actually heard.
