Most of everyone else would agree that it is a lack of political will.

Greyghoster ,

Well it makes sense as the people banning abortion are also making sure everyone has a gun.

Greyghoster ,

There are ads on the radio in Perth that are spruiking how essential methane is to industry. What’s most annoying is no mention of the devastating effects on the climate crisis. Greenwashing at its finest.

Greyghoster ,

Here I am, surprised that the US has troops in Chad.

I suppose that once you have laws that allow blocking one type of site then other sites will be pretty easy to be added. A precedent sort of thing. Done once then others will follow.

Pretty amazing that piracy is such a hot topic such that freedoms can be curtailed but everyone’s right to an AR15 must be protected.

Greyghoster ,

Only the highest of priorities for this guy!

Greyghoster ,

Sounds like more shooting between Chinese and Indian soldiers with little to show for it.

It took years of campaigning for Australia to ban asbestos but we did in 2003. Lots of legacy in buildings that causes no end of risk for firies dealing with burning buildings and tradies fixing them. The fact it took so long is a testament to the power of lobbying. There should be jail time for those who perpetuated it.

Greyghoster ,

Insurrection affects people at all levels of civic life including those who want to be dog catchers. Does this ruling make Congress the arbiter of all these assessments or merely the president?

Greyghoster ,

Ahh, Mike Johnson and the Russian GOP.

Greyghoster ,

We still use disinformation when, given the seriousness, we should be calling them what they are, lies.

Greyghoster ,

Given that Russian doctrine is all about disinformation and deflection, is he actually worth listening to until there is something on the table?

Greyghoster ,

Because Russia is so good at it and effectively does it all the time as well as it being doctrine.

Greyghoster ,

What’s the likelihood that the billionaires driving the work from office campaign are really trying to reestablish their power and instil fear in their workers again? It’s all about control so they can squeeze and fire people as they like. They sound like psychopaths.

Greyghoster ,

Disinformation or more accurately, lying, is Russian doctrine. Everything that they say seems to be a lie and designed to delay appropriate action.

Greyghoster ,

Trump just says stuff, brain farts really, that his MAGA sycophants just lap up and suddenly approve. On day soon they will be cheering as he jerks off in public.

Greyghoster ,

Never watched this Carlson fool but it seems that others do to their detriment. If you are so desperate for ratings that you need to give a platform to Putin, your life must be in tatters.

Greyghoster ,

What can you say when a religious group gets together to promote drowning people in a river? Maybe they have misunderstood the second coming of Christ is about judgement.

Greyghoster ,

It’s amazing that rentals are going through the roof all around the world, there seems to be different reasons everywhere but the problem is the same. The underlying problem is probably capitalism underscored by neoliberalism which drives laws and policies to support short term, high growth returns.

Greyghoster ,

That’s a lot of rapes. Aside from guns do Texans actually care about anything. They obviously don’t care about women other than sex objects.

Greyghoster ,

Be interesting to see how the appeal goes. It’s going to take a while to thin out those Trump judges.

Greyghoster ,

I thought that many white male academics dissertations would get a bit of attention but a woman? Well I suppose someone has to be first.

Project Kuiper: Amazon's answer to SpaceX's Starlink passes 'crucial' test (www.space.com)

Project Kuiper: Amazon’s answer to SpaceX’s Starlink passes ‘crucial’ test::Amazon’s Project Kuiper, which uses optical inter-satellite link (OISL) technology to connect more than 3,000 satellites in a mesh network that blankets Earth, just cleared a final hurdle needed to launch next year.

Greyghoster ,

Given that these low orbit spacecraft only last a few years before they deorbit, I wonder how long this incredibly expensive and climate destructive industry will last. Most industries try for low cost of ownership while this one seems to built in high maintenance.

Greyghoster ,

Australia has all cigarette packets an olive green colour with the usual graphic pictures as well as the same font used on all of them. Seems to work and the manufacturers have slunk off to their kennels.

Greyghoster ,

You probably grew up in the era of digital clocks and watches. If you used an analog watch you would know why it was easier to say a quarter to 10. 😁

Greyghoster ,

No it means that they grew up using a 12 hour, 60 minute circular time system. Habits form when you learn stuff and can last a lifetime.

Greyghoster ,

Just different and from a different school of thought. If you consider the convenience of conveying how close the time is to the hour, it’s actually a quick shorthand. I can see you don’t like it however it’s just the way people think of time. It’s not like they can’t do the math because if they have a digital clock they have to convert 9:45 into a quarter to 10. It’s the way they think about time.

Greyghoster ,

View it from their perspective, they all converse perfectly together because that’s how everyone told the time however other people want to change the rules. They aren’t being rude or impolite just using the system they grew up with.

Greyghoster ,

Isn’t it amazing that a psychopath who goes around fermenting war and terrorising his people now wants to turn women into baby factories. Sounds like Republicans.

Greyghoster ,

The perils of autocorrect and less diligence in checking the result.

Greyghoster ,

Pretty much what the tobacco industry did when rich countries started to reduce and control tobacco use. Asia, Africa and South America became major growth markets.

Greyghoster ,

Wait a minute? Disney just decided now to get off xitter? Isn’t the story really about how bad is Disney’s judgment?

Greyghoster ,

Apparently companies like to deal with Google because it has a superior search engine. That’s why users use it. What companies like is the adware hooks. Time to use DuckDuckGo and Firefox.

Greyghoster ,

Not enforceable, not retrospective and not policed. Time for laws.

Greyghoster ,

Whatever the case, it was a major win for greenhouse gas reductions in Europe. We can thank whoever did it for that.

Greyghoster ,

An interesting take on why the nuclear industry stalled. A big picture approach however it says it is not an area for engineering innovation and big is better if you want an economic industry. cleantechnica.com/…/nuclear-energy-free-market-ca…

Greyghoster ,

Coal power is being killed in Australia by renewable energy as it is comparatively cheap to install and has ridiculously low operating costs.

Greyghoster ,

Yet again irrigating to feed cattle which apparently only 10% of people eat.

Greyghoster ,

The SMNR format suffers from being small and therefore difficult to be cost effective and that renewables are 4 times as cheap. Not easy to make money in this environment. cleantechnica.com/…/nuclear-energy-free-market-ca…

Greyghoster ,

Sounds like a very expensive argument to invest billions on the hope that something might happen 😬. Hope it’s not my money.

Greyghoster ,

It’s always interesting that there is a right to bear arms but not here or there. Maybe the only place to bear arms is in the closet.

Greyghoster ,

And suffered radiation poisoning for months, if not years, after. An actual hero rather than a B movie star.

Greyghoster ,

The sad part is that he may be right because the urgency to transition off fossils is lost in our desire not to be inconvenienced. Don’t mention the bribes (some call them donations) to political parties, candidates and Supreme Court judges.

Greyghoster ,

I don’t think we care in Australia. The design rules are pretty much behind the pack, so much so that we run the risk of being the dumping ground for 3rd world vehicles.

Greyghoster ,

Chinese parent company stands out here. Not sure what that has to do with parental controls and excessive time spent unless they are alleging that the Chinese government is trying to waste Utah kids time.

Greyghoster ,

There was research on this at least 10 years ago where approaching traffic was detected and the lights were dynamically adjusted to improve traffic flow. This is the first time I’ve heard of this since.

Sadly, no one is considering optimising pedestrian traffic flows as they tend to have to wait at beg lights for increasing amounts of time. If we want liveable cities then we need to consider walking as a priority.

Greyghoster ,

As I recall it, the system used cameras or maybe radar to detect the cars some distance away so it had time to optimise the lights. The Google system seems to be based on historical data which probably the quickest way to improve using the current technology. My observation is that most traffic lights are set and forget so there are probably huge improvements possible.

As google data is based on mobile phones, they probably do have data on pedestrians as well as cars which could be promising.

To really fix things there will need to be new technology to allow realtime adjustments which introduces the opportunity to detect bikes and pedestrians.

Greyghoster ,

There are confirmation hearings and supposed investigations before these judges were appointed. Whoever did the investigation failed and should be fired as well as their bosses.
