The Tesla battery is there to provide very fast response (sub-second) load balancing in order to prevent the sort of cascading blackouts that happened in 2016. It does that very well, while saving considerable amounts of money. (It's much cheaper to draw from a battery to deal with transient demand than spin up a power plant.) And no, Victoria didn't shut down all businesses. In the face of a massive heat-wave some of the largest users were asked to cut production so that the AC could stay on.
I know, it's a waste of time replying to people who think the use of all caps is a persuasive rhetorical technique, but as an Australian I feel some sort of duty to correct people spouting nonsense about my country.
I put dibs on AOC for Australia. In a few months we'll have a mob of unemployed wannabee trumps with ministerial experience. Free to anyone who'll give them a good (or preferably not so good) home. Pity there are no prison hulks left. There's that whole convict thing we owe the UK for. Not that that would be fair. We're pretty happy with the people you sent like this bloke and especially this one.
How much piloting do you think the average astronaut actually does?
It depends. Armstrong's piloting was legendary. (The moon landing took real skill but it was Agena incident that showed he really did have the Right Stuff.) Shepard, on the other hand, was pretty much just payload on his most famous flight.
but I think I know why those four people did. Probably something to do with the fact that you falsely claimed that the oligarchs in question are anti-Russian. Even the RT report you link to wouldn't go that far and it's RT.
(For the uninitiated there are pro and anti Russian groups in Ukraine — they tend not to get along.)
In short your claim of fake news is, surprise, fake news.
Please don't use that word to describe people who aren't actually in the business of causing injury or death*. It's inaccurate and makes you sound like the Daily Mail.
* I shouldn't have to say this but I probably do. Nothing in my post is meant to support or excuse the people behind this attack.
