There's no right to cheap gas no matter who's in charge.

lot of chatter about BTC miners coming to Texas
They're going to move to Texas.
Do we know where in Texas? If they end up far enough east or west, they might not be on the Texas grid.

I"m sure that will make the power grid so much better.
Charge the out of them IMO, if they want to be here, they can subsidize the rest of us.
Now just convince the ducks and Darrins of that.
Though ducks is too dense to understand what you are saying, there is plenty of good information to inform friends/family being influenced by fox/oann bs.
Me too, RG. Try and convince me as well. Go ahead, just in' try, you in' fart face, you.

I knew I'd chosen correctly the moment that old man held fast thru that long night, came out the next mornin' and blasted hair all over them walls, peeg.
"Both sides."
That was it and that was all. I've never looked back. And I'll grant ya, he was teetering. I wrote him a riot act the evening before on the Twitter. I warned him repeatedly and at length to stand fast in the ranks on -both sides- and as we both know he soldiered in the finest traditions.
Both sides

You can deprogram some of them. There is an art to it. Patience and questions.
Guess so.
Sorry Dale, but you have to know when to hold them and when to fold them, cause you cannot be reached under your blind hatred of Biden and trump’s matization.
I'll hold 'em, in a death grip...

Texas Consumers Lose Control Of Their Thermostats,
Get Another Crash Course In Value Of Competent Regulators
Customers had apparently signed up for a "sweepstakes" where
the fine print in a massive, overlong end user agreement gave control of their own AC thermostats over to the local utility:
"The family’s smart thermostat was installed a few years ago as part of a new home security package.the data collected from such devices (which gives a pretty detailed readout of your daily behavior) was being monetized and sold or shared with law enforcement without consumers' explicit consent.
Many smart thermostats can be enrolled in a program called "Smart Savers Texas." It's operated by a company called EnergyHub.
The agreement states that in exchange for an entry into sweepstakes, electric customers allow them to control their thermostats during periods of high energy demand.
EnergyHub’s list of its clients include TXU Energy, CenterPoint and ERCOT.

Paxton dictates that ERCOT is immune from FOIA
Sweepstakes implies there is a contest. So the question is: so what is the prize, who has won, and when is it over?
ERCOT’S convenient iden y crisis
ERCOT has argued that it is not subject to the public information law because
it is not a government en y.
State Attorney General Ken Paxton (not a lawyer) apparently agrees.
But ERCOT is also facing dozens of lawsuits regarding its performance this winter. Its defense, made in a court filing in April, is that it “will continue to assert that
it is en led to sovereign immunity due to its organization and function as an arm of State government.”
So it’s an “arm of State government” when it comes to being sued,
but an “independent” non-profit corporation when it comes to public accountability.

In short, the will be no accountability for PUC/ERCOT nor for the Capitalists who continue fleecing Texans with their rigged de-regulated electricity market.
when the grid fails in Texas the lege crafts a solution that doesn't solve the problem, but enriches energy companies at public expense and in so doing, indirectly funds its own reeelection.

About 9,300 Avista Utilities customers in Spokane lost power on Monday and the company said more planned blackouts began on Tuesday afternoon in the city of about 220,000 people.
“We try to limit outages to one hour per customer,” said Heather Rosentrater, an Avista vice president for energy delivery.
