I feel like you shouldn't ask your friends to put their lies in writing.

Donald Trump's sentencing is coming soon, hopefully they both get equal treatment
The new Prius Prime has an optional rooftop solar panel.
According to an article in Slash Gear you can get about 4 miles of range after 9 hours in the sun.
So it has the potential to marginally increase your range on the scale of a short commute under ideal circumstances, but it's not much apparently.
Some more context from a BBC article
But Yair Lapid, one of Israel's most influential opposition politicians, was quick to offer his backing to the embattled prime minister. His Yesh Atid (There is a future) party hold 24 seats. He said the prime minister "has our safety net for a hostage deal if Ben-Gvir and Smotrich leave the government".
Not if you want the fighting to continue so that you can keep using it as a talking point to get Trump elected.
That wording is all you should need to hear to disregard the poll...
That's a pretty extraordinary assumption to make.
Regardless of how you feel about that option there is little support among voters for withholding support for Israel until a ceasefire is reached. Less than 25% among all respondents, and less than 33% among Democrats and Independents who I'd consider potential Biden voters.
If you have a different poll I'd love to see it.
I found this article about a NPR poll which has a breakdown of support for Israel by age group and party affiliation.
I'm not sure exactly where Biden's position on the Gaza invasion falls on this poll, but it seems closest to "Support Israels right to defend itself while encouraging a cease fire". Biden definitely isn't withholding all support, and he definitely isn't fully supporting the military actions against Hamas.
About 33% of Democrats and 27% independents think the US should suspend aid to Israel until there is a cease fire.
Similarly 38% of gen z/millennials think there should be a cease fire until there is a suspension of aid. This is the smallest voting cohort at about 36% of the population according to Wikipedia, and also the least likely to vote historically. Perhaps voter turn out would be higher among this group if we had a different candidate, but no one is going to cater their political platform to a group that had never reliably voted, especially if doing so costs them votes among reliable voters.
Among Gen X and older less that 19% support a stopping aid until a cease fire happens. This is the largest and most likely to vote voting cohort.
Also noted in the article, Biden has a 15 point lead over Trump among baby boomers who have very little support for a ceasefire.
Right? I want a PHEV so range isn't something I really need to think about.
Fun fact: the person your replying to had absolutely no idea that a desalination plant was involved in this process.
Since a lot of people seem to be jumping to extreme conclusions about this based on specious assumptions, here's how the process works according to the article:
Magrathea — named after a planet in the hit novel The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy — buys waste brines, often from desalination plants, and allows the water to evaporate, leaving behind magnesium chloride salts. Next, it passes an electrical current through the salts to separate them from the molten magnesium, which is then cast into ingots or machine components.
If you're doing a lot of reporting I highly recommend getting familiar with Quarto. It's incredibly flexible for writing ad hoc reports, automated reporting, dashboards, presentations, etc. You can use python, R, observable, or Julia.
