The Picosecond Pulse Labs bias tees hold a special place in my heart.

If you have a TV, you likely already have the receiving device. Antenna can cost, or you can play around with wire length and orientation.
It's mostly so that I can have SSL handled by nginx (and not per-service), and also for ease of hosting multiple services accessible via subdomains. So every service is its own subdomain.
Additionally, my internal network (as in, my physical LAN) does not have any port forwarding enabled
everything is over WireGuard to my VPS.
For a while I thought the Google AI result had a pretty logical, well thought out, practical solution
use glue.
I am devastated that I got rid of my 2000s HP LaserJet (with Ethernet). Only flaw it had was that it didn't have a duplexer.
In addition to the financial implications, that's why we're stopping at 2. We get kids, the kids get a sibling, and it's a little below replacement level.
My method:
VPS with reverse proxy to my public facing services. This holds SSL certs, and communicates with home network through WireGuard link configured on my router.
Local computer with reverse proxy for all services. This also has SSL certs, and handles the same services as the VPS, so I can have local/LAN speeds. Additionally, it serves as a reverse proxy for all my private services, such as my router/switches/access point config pages, Jellyfin, etc.
No complaints, it mostly just works. I also have my router override DNS entries for my FQDN to resolve locally, so I use the same URL for accessing public services on my LAN.
The grid needs to balance input and output. You can't just "throw away" power.
It's a real problem
not the "electric companies are losing money" part, but the "we need to keep the grid balanced" part.
Concentrated solar and wind are a bit different though?
Afaik photovoltaics are fine running open circuit, i.e., disconnecting them. Thermal solar, and wind, are (I think) much trickier (but covering things for solar thermal, like you suggest, is perhaps feasible).
No, unfortunately, you can't.
Ground doesn't typically dissipate power, rather, power is dissipated in the circuit/load
so if you just hook a wire to ground, you're dumping gobs of power into the wire. If you do this in your home (DON'T), best case it will trip the breaker, worst case it will melt and catch something on fire.
It's easy enough to burn a kilowatt
just boil some water. But it's entirely something else to burn megawatt, or yikes, gigawatt scale power.
Wouldn't be surprised if he thinks the bad guys won the American Civil War, too...
