North Hyde sub station burns

This thread proves our overlords are in a race to the bottom.
Transformers do explode, especially when they are old and internally break down.
I have seen not a peep about how old these three super transformers were, how many blew, nor much of anything else.
Three years ago this facility was sometimes running at over capacity, which sounds dangerous especially if it goes on for years, and was to be upgraded, but nobody is telling me what if anything was done:
North Hyde 275/66kVNG comments:Radial spur - downstream from Iver. New datacentre connection in late summer/early autumn2022 - starting at 30MW and ramping up to150MW as the need develops.Existing two cables will need uprating - projectnow confirmed, due for completion in 2027.Further works needed to rebuild the 66kVsubstation and indicative timescale is 2033.SSEN comments:No available headroom, Pending ModificationApplication with National Grid to increase FCO andSCO capacity. Timescale TBC by National Grid -Indicative 2030.

I would mention that if you are holding your retirement in privately held physical gold, you are making a huge mistake. You want most of your retirement in something that grows, and compounds. If you invest in a broad stock mutual fund, there might be 50% losses every decade or two, but the high growth will still give you 8% average yearly return after taxes.
Holding some physical gold can make sense, but that should not be your entire retirement plan. Physical gold, outside vaults, has a huge transaction cost, so if you buy and sell it quickly, you are going to lose a lot of money.
If you feel the transaction cost is too high, gold is a freely bought and sold object, so you can just find someone who wants to buy your piece of gold and sell it to them directly. If you have trouble doing that, then it draws into question the whole point that gold is a good replacement for fiat currency. I have no problem finding people willing to accept fiat currency.
Tyson does not give financial advise, he teaches about science, mostly physics. I do not see how that will scam you. Maybe the problem here is you are confusing the scam with the reality of the scam. trump tries to sell you magic(the scam), and Tyson tells you the physics(the reality of the scam).
I live in the real world, Walt. I know countless people who had their pension stolen by banksters and lawyers. Our politicians make it easy with legalized bribery.
Pensions are tied up in bonds. The upcoming capitalism bankruptcy is designed to steal our pensions. I used to think physical gold was a safer bet. Now I'm a little worried.
The age of defined pensions is long since gone. You are left to pick your own retirement. That makes it tough to be stolen, but easy to lose due to bad decisions.
Gold makes sense at 5% to maybe 20%, but it makes no sense at 100%.
Again, I live in the real world. The upcoming capitalist bankruptcy will steal our pension no matter how safe we believe it is.

Heathrow was warned over 10 years ago that North Hyde was a major potential weakness.
Ministers and Heathrow chiefs were warned a decade ago that a ‘key weakness’ at the airport was its main electricity supply, The Mail on Sunday can reveal.
A report by Jacobs, a major consultancy, highlighted in November 2014 how electricity outages could completely shut Europe’s busiest airport.

Market makers determine value. A good example is bottled water. Very few of us still drink tap water. They can manipulate the value of gold the same way. Electronic connections requiring gold don't want to pay $3000 an oz, so I'm worried they will intentionally crash the market.
Seems reasonable.....also we have no idea how much gold there is, a lot of it is secret.....supply and demand theory breaks down at that point.
I have been told that America has been working for 50 years to manipulate the value of gold down because they did not want any competition for the dollar.
Trump makes it clear that competition to the dollar speeds up the fall of empire. We won't be able to start Wall Street wars after de-dollarization. The US will have to STFU or nuke the entire planet. I still can't believe I lived long enough to see empire in this much trouble.
There is no hope, we have committed too many crimes, justice demands that America power be eliminated.
And it will be, one way or the other, perhaps with global incineration.
You are patriotic in ways war pigs will never understand. The constitution says we need to fight enemies foreign and domestic. Empire is my only enemy. I have no problem with the people of Russia and China.
Thank You.
I do not believe the rap that the Chinese just want peace and to trade.....they in the early 70's were hatching their plan for the fall of America, and the Russians (Soviets) who had already been working on that project for many decades assisted.
And now they are blood brothers, completing the project.
Some tell me that 55 years ago when the Chinese were making their plans that they did not include the forceful sinking of the West and the American Empire because they hoped for a planned for America allowing the peaceful rise of China as America and the West was in retrograde.
I dont believe it......this is not who the Chinese are.
