I bet it was the same person who came up with the name of the workplace on Archer.
Pissed off some ancient Greek God and is now cursed to come up with amazing names and slogans that will become touch of death within months. Doomed to roam the earth from marketing group to marketing group. When he dies his tombstone will read “here lies the man who named it The Dangerous Life of Altarboys”
Why the hell would it? There is no legal requirement for a presidential candidate to provide tax returns. And there is a huge difference between voluntarily disclosing your own tax returns and an IRS agent exposing somebody else’s returns.
She’s charged basically for not leaving a the premises when told by police, she’ll likely receive a fine.
She’ll be alright and will get a chance to argue in court, a new platform one might even argue. I don’t think this is anything to get rallied up or worried about, civil disobedience works sometimes
And this isn’t the first time. A lot of climate activists (and I assume Greta included) love these non-compliance fines, since it’s basically advertising for them
Unfortunately, he is a product of the American way, remove him from the equation and some other narcissistic, imbecile will eventually walk the same walk.
Unfortunately, trump is just a symptom of a much bigger problem.
Agreed. But sometimes, you need to remove the infection first before it can heal.
Removing trump from the equation removes their rallying point and sends them back into the shadows, where we will build a beacon of light to educate them out of.
They don’t really have anyone else who has Trumps level of support, if Trump was eliminated I’m not sure who would pick up the mantle. He really is the catalyst for all of the problems, and these idiots are incapable of self-organization.
As hard as it is to believe, Trump is the brains of the operation, in as much as the operation has any brains at all.
Pirates had some of the best democracies. Being from the U.S., we have a representative democracy with representatives that get paid off legally (lobbying) to represent the rich more than the poor.
Yeah but they probably won’t get themselves organized in time for the upcoming election. The CIA supposedly have a heart attack gun, and I’m just saying no one would be that surprised if that’s the way he went.
I don’t get it. So someone let 11 yo kid use internet unmonitored and it’s the Internet’s fault? Isn’t it up to parents to know when their kid can go on the internet alone?
I didn’t have internet until I was able to take responsibility for what I do with it. Not because my parents were so smart but because it simply wasn’t available where I lived. The only thing that affected me negatively for life was religion and I totally believe my parents are responsible, not the bible.
Might as well sue the ISP as well. Who else can parents blame for their lack of competence and awareness in what their children are doing in an environment where they can communicate, apparently in an unfiltered manner, with adults ?
It’s really funny. Companies have made all sorts of lockdown programs and monitoring software anyone can purchase for any operating system and then there’s parents blaming other entities for the fact that they have decided not to use those programs.
We chose not to have kids, but still we are apparently saddled with raising the kids other people chose to have. It’s like having a toddler and no door, then your toddler walks into traffic, dies, and you blame the city for killing your toddler. That’s UK law for you.
The guy in the article had the child send him 220 pictures right under a mother and father’s nose before he was caught. A child who, by the way, was 11, barely a teen. Holy terrible parenting, batman. These people should lose custody immediately.
So did NASA not track the asteroid for the last year? Like they just crash a rocket into it and call it good right away? No follow up or deeper analysis? You’d think they would want to monitor it for any weird or unexpected behavior but instead they find out from a high school teacher?
People still think tachyons neutrinos move faster than light because a professional laboratory gathered data incorrectly one time… I’m not saying these high schoolers messed up their data collection, but it seems more likely than them discovering a new physical phenomenon
But tachyons are by definitions just “hypothetical particles moving faster than light”. Meaning if they exist, of course they move faster than light. I don’t know which lab your talking about, but people are absolutely right to think that tachyons are faster than light (if they believe tachyons to exist, which of course never has been proven).
Maybe you have the wrong word here and that people think that neutrinos can move faster than light, since there was a false measurement in CERN? But that one has been reported and updated already.
NASA is run by the federal government. It would make sense that they wouldn’t report something like that, at least at this time, in order to avoid an overreaction by the public.
The teams behind the DART mission are tracking it, and will continue to track it into the future. There is even a new mission set to launch to send another craft to the asteroid to gather more information. So, yeah lots of follow up to come over the next year. It is just far more likely that they don’t really have much to say ATM aside from well, that is not acting as predicted, we need more evidence/data to figure out what exactly is going on. Which is what this students paper basically concluded.
Spoiler alert: a lot more penguins are gonna die (and other wildlife, and people) before large swathes of governments and the public get on board.
A recent climate Scientist who testified in front of congress in 1988 on the topic of global warming, said that it’s unfortunate that humanity has got to taste it first before they spit it out
Its insane, a gut punch to the soul, I have no words for the idiocy and malice unfolding before my eyes. Every day I grow more and more restless, like a frog that is aware the water will boil.
The economy will be great again because some dumb country will sure to wage war for resources eventually in a selfish attempt to make things better for themselves short term while making everyone including themselves die even faster. And we all know how much America loves taking advantage of war to sell weapons!
We’ve been tasting it, I don’t think we’ll properly spit it out before we deep throat the goddamn thing. Undoubtedly we will choke and die on it. Absolutely pathetic
While true that it’s too late to avoid consequences, doomerism is just as much a trap to keep you complacent as climate denial is. If we act now or relatively soon, we can still avoid the worst consequences. It is going to suck, no matter what, but the fight isn’t over.
You people keep saying “we” as if you have any influence. The solution can only be reached through worldwide government regulation that literally cannot be achieved. You’re living in a fantasy when you should be getting ready for imminent disaster.
And it really isn’t even on us to do anything. It’s the corporations. They need to provide the alternative fuel sources for transportation. They need to provide the environmentally friendly power generation. They need to clean up their emissions and toxic waste. This isn’t on “us”. This is on them.
Oh shit yeah! That kid totally learned from his parent that violence was a solution to emotional issues. That kid is fucked for life (which is highly likely to be incredibly short) if at age six they already associate lethal violence as an appropriate solution for dealing with emotions.
That kid will learn the lesson of fuck around and find out in a life-altering/ending way soon enough. If it's starting at age six, educating that out of him is going to be a near 90° uphill battle. And that parent squarely put that mentality into him.
… I’m not sure “90°” means what you think it means… 😅😶
edit: Apologies, I’d assumed it was a compound phrase and not a janky one — as in, “opposite direction and also uphill” (therefore, 180°) rather than “describing a vertical surface as an incline”. My bad. 🤷🏼♂️
This is the same problem ICE cars faced when they were rolled out. It isn't like there was a gas station on every corner when the Model T rolled out. As more and more EVs hit the road, charging availability will increase until we reach a point where chargers are ubiquitous. It may reach the point where every parking space has a charger.
This is a transitional issue that will resolve itself.
Except it's not the same, yet. Currently in the space you can have a fuel station cars can refuel in 5 minutes to full and be on their way making that pump available.
EVs need at least 30 minutes with the fastest charger to get from say 20 to 60 right? In either case they take up the bay. So you need to be able to handle many more at once.
If all bays are fast charge, that's a lot of power infrastructure required.
Now, all isn't lost. There's more ways to charge an EV. For example people can mostly charge at home, there could be ways to charge on the move (I don't wonder what kind of drag would be applied charging with induction) and then, yes charging points which we'd hope are used less often.
But the issue is the promises of X things done by Y year. Since there's just not been enough work done until now.
The footprints of chargers and gas stations aren’t the same though. A lot of places I go have a row of 8-10 spots with chargers. No added footprint really, just installed at the front of the spot. Compare that to an 8-10 pump gas station, even without a convenience store. If you removed a gas station and replaced it with rows of spaces with chargers I think you’d get more cars through over a given period of time.
EVs need at least 30 minutes with the fastest charger to get from say 20 to 60 right? In either case they take up the bay. So you need to be able to handle many more at once.
No. The Hyundai IONIQ 5 and 6 (and likely 7) only need 18 minutes to go from 10% to 80%.
But I can charge my EV at home so I only use public chargers like once every couple months instead of refilling exclusively at the gas stations. I also see a lot of people paying small amounts at the gas station (like 10-20 euros) so I’m guessing they visit them once per week. I have no idea how this impacts the overall occupancy rate but my guess is that a lot of city cars will not use public chargers at all so it’s not like we’re moving all cars for gas stations to charging stations.
It's what I covered later in that message. That we'll need some mix of home charging, fast charging but ultimately if we can get some kind of charging on trunk roads at least, it could just make EVs better than fuel driven cars.
Installing wires is too difficult. Let’s just continue doing it the easy way, pumping liquid dinosaurs out of the ground and transporting flammable liquid thousands of miles.
Gasoline has about a 6 month self life and has to be refined from crude oil at specific facilities that polute the surrounding area.
The supply chain to support gasoline is completely insane compared to plugging you car in at home 90% of the time. Once the wiring is updated to support EVs it’s basically done, no more logistics expense but gas is expensive always.
My apologies I was meaning to share frustration because I agree with you not come off as an argument. I hope you don’t feel as if I was saying you were wrong.
It’s also madness because we did this before at least in the US with air conditioning going main stream on a grid designed to support lights only.
