I’m on Thanksgiving Break and have nothing better to do with my waking hours than to categorize every single time Mr. Robot appears onscreen. This post only documents season 1!

1.01

7:01--7:25 : Robot with hat and sunglasses talks to Elliot on the subway. He takes off hat then puts it back on. Blue flannel scarf.

23:51--23:54: Robot with hat and sunglasses begs for change outside of restaurant. Blue flannel scarf.

34:18--40:17: Robot shows up holding his hat on the subway. He puts on his hat when he leaves the train. He keeps hat on until they reach fsociety at 38:41 then he removes it. 39:51 is the first appearance of Robot with reading glasses, telling Elliot there’s not much he can do without a CPU. Blue flannel scarf and cardigan.

44:33--48:23: Robot enters with his hat and sunglasses (and snacks!). Once on ferris wheel, Robot no longer has a hat or sunglasses. Blue flannel scarf.

1.02

20:26--25:39: Robot is playing a shooting game without hat or sunglasses inside fsociety. Robot puts on sunglasses and takes them off talking about blowing up Steel Mountain. Red flannel shirt.

42:24--46:27: Robot sitting on pier with hat and sunglasses, reading Resurrection by Leo Tolstoy (for the Tyrell conspiracy theorist in me, eyyyy). Robot takes off the sunglasses, talks about his father, then puts them on before shoving him off the pier. Different red flannel shirt. Gray and orange flannel scarf.

1.03

16:02--19:15: Robot shows up in Elliot’s office wearing reading glasses--no hat. Robot takes him to a bar, he’s still wearing the reading glasses--no hat. Blue scarf. Can’t tell color of his shirt, looks orange.

43:34--44:07: Robot reading Resurrection with reading glasses--no hat. Wearing blue scarf.

1.04

1:33--3:28: Robot with reading glasses reading Resurrection--no hat. Blue flannel scarf. Orange flannel shirt.

6:47--9:56: Robot with reading glasses--no hat. He just kind of stands there doing nothing. Orange/red flannel shirt.

11:07--13:21: Robot with reading glasses--no hat in arcade. Then they’re in a van, Robot is drinking beer with reading glasses and hat. Elliot’s having a monologue about daemons, “Primal urges repressed memories, unconscious habits...Intentions are irrelevant. They don’t drive us. Daemons do.” Elliot throws up. Now Robot has reading glasses--no hat. Scene’s way too dark to see any color.

20:36--22:26: Robot without hat or glasses, waiting with Elliot going through withdrawals. 21:26, Robot has his reading glasses on again--no hat. Red flannel.

33:58--34:23: Robot appears, no hat no reading glasses, telling Elliot he won’t leave him. Red flannel.

40:24--40:46: Robot with reading glasses--no hat. Red flannel.

1.05

4:13--6:20: Robot with reading glasses and hat putting tip in jar after scanning a guy’s badge. Robot in van, reading glasses and no hat. Puts on hat when Elliot is ready to enter Steel Mountain. Blue scarf. Red shirt.

11:12--15:36: Robot with reading glasses and no hat, telling Elliot to tear Bill apart. Blue flannel scarf.

19:51--20:20: Robot wearing reading glasses--no hat. Blue flannel scarf. Red shirt.

37:09--39:40: Robot enters fsociety, reading glasses--no hat. Robot argues with Darlene. Red flannel shirt. Blue flannel scarf.

1.07

11:49--13:20: Robot enters bar to talk to Darlene, reading glasses and no hat. Ugh, lighting is so bad but I think he’s wearing a red shirt.

17:27--20:01: Robot with reading glasses and hat talks with Romero and does some really aggressive shit. The writing in Mandarin is present on the left side of Robot’s hat all the way back in this episode. Robot calls himself crazy and pulls a gun. Fucking hell, Robot’s wearing a green shirt.

1.08

Important note here. Elliot stares at a picture of a barn In Krista’s office. This reminds me of the barn in season 3, which might explain why Elliot stares at the building in season 3 so strangely.

6:12--6:29: Robot with sunglasses and hat. Blue flannel shirt.

9:27--9:38: Robot with reading glasses--no hat. Blue flannel shirt.

31:08--32:17: Robot with reading glasses and hat, speaking with Tyrell in car. Blue flannel shirt.

27:21--28:35: Robot with reading glasses--no hat, hat in hand, enters Elliot’s old room. Elliot tries to push Robot out the window. “Elliot, you thought you deserved it. You felt guilty about this your whole life, about telling people my secret. This anger was never at me. It was at you. Please, Elliot, you don’t have to be angry at yourself anymore. Just let it go.” Blue flannel shirt.

32:01--33:06: Robot and Elliot at the cemetery. Robot has reading glasses, no hat. Robot calls Elliot “son.” Blue flannel shirt.

1.10

34:44--34:48: Robot hangs up a call Elliot was trying to make to get himself arrested. He’s wearing reading glasses and a hat. Can’t tell the color of the shirt.

36:36--38:24: Robot wearing reading glasses and hat. Here’s a clearer shot of the Mandarin. Robot makes the “sex with your mom” joke that gets him beat up. Blue flannel shirt.

44:02--48:35--Robot with hat and reading glasses in Time Square. He makes a huge rant about pills and advertising and brainwashing. Robot disappears then shows back up on screen with reading glasses and hat. Blue flannel shirt.

I'm curious, what started your passion for writing Brio? Was there a scene or moment that prompted it? Do you have a process or a beta?

Funnily enough, I can actually tell you the exact moment I started writing Beth x Rio fic, anon!

I think I’m one of like, four people who’s been watching the show since 1.01 dropped last year. I watch a lot of TV (although you probably wouldn’t know it from this tumblr, haha) and that varies between shows I watch fairly seriously (like right now: Total Control, Mr Robot, Bob’s Burgers, The Good Place, Superstore, etc.) to shows I throw on in the background while I’m doing other things (Riverdale, How to Get Away with Murder, pretty much all of the superhero TV shows which I really need to quit, haha). Good Girls was a big ‘To Watch’ show from the announcement of it because of the combination of Christina (who I loved from Mad Men), Retta (who I loved from Parks & Rec) and Mae (who I loved from Parenthood), and while I can’t remember the exact scene, I do remember about halfway through 1.01 settling in and knowing it was a show that ticked a lot of boxes for me, and was going to be a show I watched fairly seriously

And I know a lot of people cite the scene at the end of 1.03 where Beth and Rio eyefucked in her kitchen as The Moment they started to ship it, but I actually started to feel it at the end of 1.02, with him on her picnic table helping Kenny with his homework. They just crackled in a way that they completely shouldn’t have given the context of their relationship in the first two eps and I loved it.

I remember starting to play around with my first fic in the fandom - An Antique Form - after 1.06 and getting into the thought of Beth and Rio potentially working together, and then completely scrapping it and re-writing and posting it after 1.08 - Shutdown aired because that episode just completely destroyed me in sooo many ways, haha. After that, I wrote Like an Unsung Chorus during the S1/S2 hiatus, and the first chapter of As If They Knew too.

All my other fics have been posted after S2 started airing. I think the way the fandom sort of exploded certainly helped that - while I write fic because I enjoy it, it’s certainly motivating to post when people are encouraging or sending prompts and you don’t just feel like you’re sending stories out into a void, haha. Plus - TMI - but I was actually pretty unwell with a severe infection in the upper palette of my mouth and up through my sinus very early in the year and have had two minor reparative surgeries on it at different points during the year (my last one was actually about six weeks ago - I’m a lot better now!), and wasn’t able to work easily, and writing fic and answering asks was really good escapism for that.

As for my process - I’m not sure it’s an especially good one, but it works for me. I usually latch on to either an image or a line of dialogue and I start to build a story up around that. Hilariously, by the time I’m done, the original image or line of dialogue is often edited out, but it always works as a jumping off point. I have a few people who I bounce ideas off or talk through issues with (and who I ask about American things!), but I don’t have a beta, which I probably should have, haha. I do have a pretty extensive editing process - and work in writing and editing professionally, so have a system in that regard, but I’m sure things slip through, as they always do when editing your own work.

Gosh, this answer got a little long. I hope it answers the question.

My DIY Solar Power Setup – Free Energy for Life

It is pretty well known at this point that Mr. Money Mustache is enamored with solar power. Besides the obvious Sci-Fi coolness of it (Electricity, Satellites, Futuristic Robots!) and the eco-friendliness of it (energy with zero noise or pollution), in the last five years the money side of things has finally matured, so that solar power is now the cheapest way to make electricity – even before you account for the added bonus of any available subsidies and the benefits of pollution-free living.

A Watt of Solar Panels: From $100+ to under fifty cents (2017) in less than my lifetime (image source cleantechnica). And the 2017 number for the blue side of the graph hit over 95,000 MW.

It works for individuals: In many cases, if you can get a good rack of solar panels on your roof, your monthly savings will be equivalent to making an investment that performs better than the stock market. But the numbers look even better as your solar setup becomes larger, like if you’re running a solar energy utility or a community solar farm.

Related: In recent Colorado Energy Bids, Solar energy is the cheapest option, even when backed by battery storage (Vox).

The fun part of this for me has always been the physics. Ever since I learned how much energy the Sun shines onto our planet’s surface (about 16,000 times more energy than all of humanity consumes, even with our current bloated habits), I have been certain that a mostly-solar-electric world was inevitable. The only obstructions were human inertia and politics, which are temporary. Physics is forever.

For example, consider the following map showing the tiny amount of our deserts we would need to cover with solar panels to replace all energy consumption (electricity, oil, gas, nuclear, hydro, wind, etc)

Fig. 1: Tiny land area required to power all of humanity. (image source)

And it’s actually even better than that: the image above assumes an old-school solar panel efficiency of 8%, whereas 18% is now a standard rate. So you can cut the black dots in half again, and then chop a few more times to account for the other existing clean energy sources.

And of course, you don’t have to concentrate the panels and run giant power lines everywhere as implied by the map. You can stick solar panels virtually anywhere and they will start working like little employees for you, tirelessly cranking out energy (which is equivalent to money) and automatically.

Which is of course the real subject of this article.

My DIY Solar Project

The new solar array at the MMM HQ workshop generates more than enough power to run the whole property year-round, plus charge the electric cars of the various members.

So naturally, I have always wanted to have my own solar power farm. Until now, various excuses kept me from getting it done: no great places to put panels on the roof of my main house, slightly unfavorable local regulations, but mainly a lack of knowledge of exactly what to buy and how to install it.

I vowed that whenever I finally got this project done, I’d write up a report to you, to spare you some of the research and time consumption that I had to go through.

So let’s get into it!

Part One: Show me the Money

As you can see from the picture above, I’ve started by building a relatively small solar array. There are twelve panels, each about 40 x 60 inches. Each one generates 300 watts of electricity when the sun shines, and when you run the numbers for my climate, the whole setup will crank out about 6100 kWh/year of electricity, a chunk which is worth about $732 per year at average US power prices.

Pretty amazing – enough energy to run my coworking space and Mrs. MM’s adjacent retail store… from a chunk of pretty black glass that is about the same size as a single car parking space!

Meanwhile, the wholesale cost of this equipment broke down roughly like this:

12 solar panels at $130 each: $1656 (a total of 3600 watts at 46 cents per watt)

12 Optimizer modules (which increase power output during partial shade): $650

One SolarEdge 6 kW Inverter (converts the DC current from the panels to AC for the grid): $1102

Various brackets, mounting racks, bolts, and wiring stuff: $460

So my total cost, due to the very good luck of having a friend who is both a dedicated Mustachian and the owner of a booming solar company, was $3900.

That’s the best case, but even after you add normal profit margins plus a 30% tariff that The Donald recently levied on solar panels (and remember the panels are thankfully only half the cost of the system), you can still buy a similar Complete kit for $6000 including shipping.

When you’re measuring the annual return on your investment (or “payback period”), there’s only one thing that matters on the cost side: price per watt. I ended up building this system at about $1.08 per watt, which is low by today’s standards but will soon sound high.

And remember, there are usually tax incentives to cut this cost further – you can take 30% off the top of this cost due to the US Federal “Investment Tax Credit (ITC)“, and possibly more from your state and local government or utility.

The Great Solar Journey to Durango

Last year, I met a badass Mustachian entrepreneur named John. He was in Longmont to visit some family here, but his real home base is in Durango, Colorado where he runs a successful solar installation company called Shaw Solar. There are a million stories that need to be told about this man, but for now we’ll start with this one.

Knowing how long I had been interested in a do-it-yourself solar project, John decided to step up and help me get it done at last. We went over technical details, calculations, strategies, and costs. All of this culminated in me taking a spectacular roadtrip to Durango along with another local friend, in May of 2017.

It was quite a trip, for much more than the acquisition of solar panels and advice. Durango is a stunning little town, and it turned out that John lives in a community of equally impressive siblings and friends – for example his brother Charles who DIY-renovated a 50,000 square foot school over a 20-year period, which has now become the jewel of Durango’s downtown.

Time For the Build

I drove back from this trip full of confidence and energy… only to end up storing the solar panels for months in my studio building as I worked to finish higher-priority parts of the Headquarters building, then waited for the time and motivation to plow through the building permit application.

It took another visit from John to really kickstart the project, and once we worked through it I realized my worry was completely unfounded – if you know what you’re doing, a simple solar array can be completely installed by two people in a less than a day’s work. Here’s what we ended up doing.

Step Zero: Research and Permit

Begin with the end in mind. The amazing Kari Spotts (LPC’s lead of renewable power metering) helps me swap in a new dual-flow electric meter at the successful completion of this project.

This is the part that stops most people before they even begin. The quickest shortcut is that if you’re not interested in these details, find someone who is, to catapult you through it. But if you have enough curiosity to learn the details, here they are:

How big a system should I build? In general, the bigger, the better. The cost per watt goes down as your system grows, making it a higher annual yield on the investment.

“I don’t live in Colorado. How much juice will I get out of it where I live?” This part is fun: The National Renewable Energy Lab runs a great, free calculator called PVWatts that does it all for you: factoring in average weather and solar angles in your area, even allowing you to specify solar panels placed at any crazy angle you like. (In other words, your house doesn’t have to have a perfect South-facing roof).

“Do I need some of those Tesla Powerwall Batteries too?” No. Unless you’re building an off-the-grid cabin, in almost all cases you will want to “grid-tie” your solar array, so you can effectively sell your surplus electricity back to the power company (and thus, other nearby customers), cleaning up your whole town and saving the huge cost of batteries. The Powerwall works great if you want protection from power outages, however, and can even pay for itself if you live somewhere with a smart grid that allows day/night price arbitrage.

“How do I get a permit to build this thing?” Your city’s building department probably has a page describing how to apply. For example, here’s the one for Longmont. The trickiest part is generating a “one-line diagram”, but I cheated by just photoshopping my own details into the example provided with my city, leading to this result, which they approved without question.

Step One: Layout

I had a nice, simple roof that was already facing South, tilted up at a 30 degree angle, which is just about perfect for solar panels. But you can also put them on other slopes or flat roofs, and they still work surprisingly well.

I needed two rails for each row of panels, and the rails get supported by “L”-shaped brackets bolted into the roof. So I ended up with this configuration:

Laying out support brackets, rails, panels, and power inverter.

Important consideration: Because I was putting this on a garage roof (technically “unoccupied space”), I was able to squeeze them all the way to the roof edge. If you are installing on a house, your city’s fire code may require that you leave a 3 foot walking access around the edges. Sometimes it’s wise to think outside the box: a garage roof, a standalone ground-mounted rack if you have lots of unused land, or creating the new workshop/carport/garden shed you’ve always wanted in the sunniest part of your yard.

2: Install your Brackets and Rails

Once you figure out where to put the long “lines” shown above, you measure them out and snap chalk lines right over top of your existing roof material. Then, use some sturdy 2.5″ lag bolts and washers to hold down the L-shaped brackets that come with the solar racking kit. Pre-drill each hole, and inject in some “Through the Roof” sealant with a normal caulk gun before driving in those bolts – this creates a permanent watertight seal. (There are also special brackets to accommodate different roof styles like tile and metal).

Once the brackets are in, you simply use the supplied slide-in bolts and nuts to attach the long rails, straighten them up nicely, and lock it down. Doing all of this with a cordless impact driver makes it quick and clean.

3: Bolt down and connect the Optimizers if you’ve Got ‘Em

These are just little flat boxes that you connect to the top of each pair of rails, about 6″ from the eventual right edge of each solar panel. There’s one optimizer for each panel, and it acts like a babysitter – monitoring output from the panel, compensating for voltage changes when necessary (such as when shade hits that panel). You’ll notice that each optimizer has four wires protruding from it, and there’s one optimizer for each panel. This will make sense in the next step.

Optimizer mounting (face down), plus a good shot of the connections between roof, brackets, and rails.

Once all the optimizers are in place, you connect each pair of longer wires together with the incredibly convenient fast-click connectors. The positive and negative wires have differently shaped connectors so you can’t accidentally reverse them.

You end up connecting inverters to each other, and each panel only to its host inverter, like this:

Inverter to panel connections

If you have two lines of panels as I do, connect the far end of one line to the far end of the next line, so you end up with a long series of optimizers where both ends terminate with a loose wire on the end closest to your inverter.

Grounding is Important: Using the supplied grounding screw terminals, connect all the rails together with bare 10AWG copper wire. From that last terminal, you’ll be running a length of the same size wire down to the inverter.

4: Install the Solar Panels!

The bottom of each panel has two long output wires. Use clips and/or zip ties to keep the cables tidy so they don’t dangle onto the roof too much.

This step is better with two people, especially on a steep roof. Starting at the furthest corner from the location of your inverter, connect each the panel’s wires to the matching ones on its host inverter. Set the panels down straight, and use the click-in clamps that come with the racking system to clamp down the panel using your cordless drill/driver.

By the end of this step, you’ll have one or more tidy lines of panels with just two powerful-looking DC wires poking out the end, with connectors to go.

You’re now ready to build the final run of wire, which will enter a metal conduit and travel through your roof, down the side of your house, and into the inverter.

5: The Home Run:

Drill a 1″ hole in your roof and put a roof boot over top of it, tucked under the upper course of shingles. From there, your goal is to provide a protected path to get the high voltage DC wires to from the panels, down to the inverter.

My city required 3/4″ metal rigid conduit, which gave me the opportunity to learn about the various fittings and connectors that are part of working with conduit. I also bought a conduit bending tool, since there are many more outdoor electrical projects still on the docket for the MMM HQ building.

I ran a length of metal conduit up from the inverter and just beyond the roof boot, then transitioned to a downward-facing connector to some flexible conduit, just to keep the wires covered until they get under the panels. All three conductors including the ground are running through this tube. If doing it again, I’d suggest using a different conduit box for that transition. Also, you can switch from a bare ground wire to a stranded, insulated ground at that point – much easier to pull through!

6: Mounting The Inverter and Connecting it all to the Grid:

The part that sounds the most mysterious is actually one of the most simple:

Hang the inverter on the wall using the supplied bracket and a few screws

Connect the conduit and pull in the DC wires from the solar panels into the inverter’s connection box. On this Solaredge unit, there are nice spring clip terminals.

Do the same on the other side of the connection box, running a length of 10/3 household wiring (for outputs up to 40 amps) right into the breaker box, as if you were hooking up any other 240 volt circuit.

Inverter mounting, including the conduit going up through the roof (left), out to the main breaker box (right), required warning stickers (red), and how it’s hooked up inside (bottom)

7: Get it all Inspected and Power it Up!

The inspector will probably have a nitpick or two with your work. Stay strong and make any required corrections, and pass that inspection. Then you flip on the AC breaker, the DC power switch, the inverter’s main power switch, and poke through the menu systems to make sure everything is set to run the way you like it.

For this Solaredge system, I had to run a “Pairing” step with the power optimizers (see manual), and add a TP-Link Wireless Repeater/Bridge to allow the inverter’s wired Ethernet connection to join my existing property-wide Wi-Fi network. Which happens to be the the spectacularly good Google Mesh Wi-fi system.

So What’s Next?

From this point on, it’s all on automatic pilot. The system generates electricity every day, which reduces the Headquarters power bill down to zero. In winter, the days are shorter so we might consume more than we produce. But in summer, a large surplus will more than make up for it.

My inverter from Solaredge comes with a really nice monitoring features, available from both a phone app and any browser. Plus, you can share a public version of your page with anyone. Here’s one I made for the MMM-HQ array.

At the time of writing, I’ve had the system online for 27 mostly-January days, including a couple of writeoffs where the panels were covered in snow. It has still averaged about 10 kWh of electricity production per day, which is more than the average consumption of the whole facility. Put another way, the 265 kWh of electricity is enough to power an electric car for roughly 1000 miles of driving.

The monitoring tool also estimates about 410 lbs of CO2 emissions prevented, which is 0.2 tons or about $4.00 worth at current carbon cleanup rates. If you happen to care about running a carbon-neutral life (or business) as I do, this means the carbon offset makes your solar electricity about 15% more valuable in your mental accounting.

I can also double or triple the number of panels on this particular system (once I decide on a good place to put them) without changing the inverter or any of the grid-tie connections, which will greatly improve my annual return on investment. It’s just a LEGO-like plug and play to connect more panels to an existing rack of them, plus the inverter has a second set of inputs if you are running in some wires from a string of panels you have placed somewhere else.

My power company pays out a check for any overall surplus at the end of each year, purchasing the power at a wholesale rate. But many regions are more solar-friendly than this, giving you a full retail or even higher rate for solar-generated electricity as an incentive to go green.

The Final Word:

Solar energy is strangely fun to produce – most people report satisfaction far beyond just the monetary benefits. It gets you out there rooting for the Sun, and for your fellow humankind to follow suit and start harvesting it alongside you. So if you’ve been considering getting it done, the time is good.

Thanks again to John Shaw (shawsolar.com) for all the help with this project. If you have questions about the details or the industry in general, please put them in the comments and both John and I should be able to weigh in.

And if you happen to own a home or business around Durango, CO, contact Shaw Solar directly and tell ’em who sent you!

Rough Edges Alert: I’ve started by publishing this article in an unpolished form, so If you see incorrect details, please let me know and I’ll clean it up over time after publication.

Harmony: So, slayer, at last we meet. Buffy: We've met, Harmony, you halfwit. Harmony: I'm the halfwit? Um, excuse me, but look who's fallen into my... trap. Buffy: Harmony, when you tried to be head cheerleader, you were bad. When you tried to chair the homecoming committee, you were really bad. But when you try to be bad ... you suck.
