  • I wouldn’t consider a country that cannot manage its own power supply “successful.” I suspect the US would be more willing to help if Cuba stopped being a one-party authoritarian state that sides with America’s geopolitical enemies, namely Russia.

    Edit: Yes, Texas sucks as a country. They aren’t one but would be a failed nation if they tried. They aren’t even a very good US state as far as states go. Your Texas argument just supports my statement above even harder.

    Edit 2: Cuban grid operators are blaming an influx of air conditioning units (residential & business) as being the stressor that brought down the grid. This story does not jive well with those here arguing the problem is US trade policy regarding the island nation. Cuba did not run out of oil. It can get equipment to operate the grid. Heck, Turkey send Cuba seven mobile power plants to assist the grid. None of it is working because Cuba has a serious brain drain issue. Educated people leave Cuba. The grid likely failed because the people keeping it running left the country.















  • As far as I know, there are only two independent rolling distros that are stable: Void & Solus. Solus comes out of the box ready-to-go with little-to-no tinkering, with a good aesthetic appeal. I like rolling distros because there’s no retiring my version. I keep it updated and it keeps getting updates. Support for life.
