Companies have reversed unpopular decisions in the past (just saw a thing about Facebook reversing some AI thing). So there may be some possible chance of them reversing this decision. I’m not hopeful but the cost is cheap, and it has a better chance of success than doing nothing

That is rad. My father started with solar domestic hot water heating, then got some PV solar, never bothered with batteries (it was at a time when batteries kind of sucked). Did ok for our northern latitudes. Power company didn’t encourage it though which makes it feel like a bit of an uphill battle. I’m thinking of doing my own house but again, it seems like you’ve got to be the expert if you want to make it work, and power companies aren’t happy to have your contributions.
I guess I just get a bit - understanding when people say they are scared of nuclear. I do realize that in aggregate fossile has been way worse than nuclear.

Must solve all problems at the same time for entire country, can’t possibly wind things down while building up alternatives. Only good solution is nuclear, ignore all previous nuclear issues, they were one offs that only happened because people were stupid. We now smart humans will never have stupid or corrupt people.
Really I don’t even dislike nuclear, some people treat it as the only option when there are clearly alternatives, and solar and batteries appears to be one.

Yeah it’s maybe not a major hardware error, but telling someone that turning their console off for 6plus hours is the solution to their issue is not something that we’d forgive from any other company. If it’s completely a one off sure, especially if valve offers to replace it. But we shouldn’t wave this off as if it’s nothing because it’s valve

It seems like your getting down voted for 'large amount of broken shit", which I don’t know about, but I agree people seem way to willing to forgive a pretty bad error with this, when I expect they’d not if it was a different company.

“a” has a name: regulatory capture.
Regulators have in the past fulfilled their role, they’ve just been hamstrung.
