re: Rolling blackouts in Louisiana?

Not sure what part of LA you live in. We have never had capacity issues in Acadiana.
True. But other things can affect the need for blackouts, like N-1 scenarios when seemingly non-related issues occur like downed lines, or non-scheduled generation outages affecting overall capacity.
There were rolling blackouts in the Acadiana area around 6 years ago, issued by MISO through NRG/Cleco for one day. I do no remember the exact reason, but it was an emergency situation.

Landry has been championing these data centers. Still not sure what Louisiana gets from this. Short term construction jobs? Anything else?
Yes, a shite ton more. There are a lot of permanent jobs and tax revenue.
I am no fan of Landry. However, there is going to be economic stimulus from this. Entergy alone will be building 10 NG generation plants to accommodate. Those will need to be staffed. Now, we aren't talking thousands of permeant jobs from that either, but jobs that didn't exist. Along with those plants, there will transmission upgrades and unknown numbers of substations. Entergy will have to staff up for that too. There will be economic growth that will come with all of this too, but it will take a few years to manifest.
Not terrible. I chuckled.
re: Will Lake Charles become bigger than Lafayette due to LNG?

It wouldn't matter if they did. Lafayette would just go running around Guido yelling at everybody that they were da bigger city, and demand everyone recognize them as such. ..
As a life long resident of Lafayette, I don't know anyone here who wants to see LC not grow. I'm happy for the LNG going on over there and have visited a casino or two, and for a fairly easy drive west. If they get bigger, great, but Lafayette is still growing and the metro area will grow a ton once there are rockets launching to the south.
Although Youngsville is trying its best to gatekeep their growth with dumb HOA ordinances, Broussard is doing things to attract commercial growth.

Preach.
However, I prioritize 3.
All of your points are extremely valid, however, the other things are annoyances. Cheaters will make me not play.

Any update on the rumors of SpaceX buying some land down by Pecan Island?
A quick google search netted this Youtube video. There was a NOLA article of the same headline, but it's paywalled.
Meh.
Probably still getting it though.

Remember when the Pels took the #1 in the West, Suns, team to 6 games in the first round without Zion. Remember when we thought "next year is it"?
Man, those were to the times.
WTF happened?

That’s a staggering amount. It’s enough supply to power every home in Louisiana and Mississippi.
What? Louisiana, today, is 25GW and Mississippi is 16GW. Just saying.
I get that it may be more efficient to use than "equal distance", but using "equidistant" in context bothers me.

Can we get a fitness check on Queen?
There is no need for either to be there. Missi played summer league between his year 1 and year 2, but he needed it. Fears and Queen, maybe not so much.

Other than Supergirl. She's dead weight. The audience response made that decision
She would have been fine as a side character in a Superman movie. Didn't need the full girlboss movie right off the bat.

Climbing things to take pics seems to be a thing for these two.
Not gonna lie, that pic of her hand out with the ring over NYC is pretty awesome.

'Supergirl' Braces for $100 Million Loss: What DC Studios Should Learn From Its Box Office Bomb
They do not want to hear the truth. What they need to do? Firstly, a fairly attractive actress to play this part would have helped. Alcock was ok, not everyone's cup of tea, but good enough. But the next thing is to make sure that actress doesn't alienate half of your target audience with political and woke statement before the movie even comes out Tell them to stay off of social media and train them to answer the questions when it is ultimately asked by the ridiculous media outlets.
That would be a strong start.
Secondly, take a fan favorite story from the comics and tell it as it is written in the comics. And make sure the villain compelling.
The marketing does the rest.
Lobo was meh. The story was stupid. The villain was underwhelming. The fight scenes were okay. There were parts of the movie that I didn't understand, but maybe I'm an idiot. I honestly did not care one bit about Krypto. Even the flashbacks were disjointed and barely built the connection to Krypto at all. They missed the mark on this by alot.

I’ve never understood the hate this board has for zendaya.
I get the hate for bri Larson and Rachel zeigler as they have been openly antagonistic but unless I’ve missed something it seems to me that Zendaya is pretty quiet off the set, her and Tim holland have a normal heterosexual marriage, and the biggest issue is she’s just in everything
I am a Zendaya fan. Have pretty much enjoyed everything she was in.
This would be too much for me.
Once you've tried Mama's and Pizza Shack in Opelousas, go to Kelly's Diner. Good off the radar places in Opelousas.
That looks awesome. I'll try to remember this when I'm going through Jennings.
