Catch them as they fall. Let's start at 50 meters.

I think it's just another type of superstitious thinking, like horoscopes or lucky clothes. Many people just aren't good at risk analysis, so they turn to superstition. They get away with it because most of the serious diseases are now rare.

Perhaps a feasible approach may be to use the Xoreos code base for the NWN2 data load back end then write a 3D game engine interface in Unity. But you'd need a team of developers to pull that off.

I've come to view inflation as a form of taxation. It's a tax upon savings, loans, and pensions. Is it taxation without representation? The Fed seems to control it, rather than Congressional representatives.

Our city (Seattle) just announced we reached 70% of the populace at least partially vaccinated. Crushing it here at least.

Safe to say, the new Aussie law isn't Cricket.

I for one welcome our new demon overlord.

If the generator is more carbon-efficient than a car, then this actually makes a lot of sense in terms of enabling an electric-vehicle transportation future. Using diesel to charge EVs in the outback is greener than you think

No, you suggested a single power source usable on one scale should also work on a much larger source. Is basic math too much for you? It's a scaling problem. The country can't be powered by a single power site. As for the nationwide power source, it's going to be a hybrid solution. Solar, wind, tidal, biofuels, nuclear, and others. We won't need fossil fuels.

Yes it's tacky trolling. Which I suppose, for social media, is the new norm. But I wouldn't want to be associated with that slur. The Democrats have an ongoing problem with African-American Republicans because it doesn't fit their narrative, and the Republicans know that, which is why he was chosen. It almost didn't matter what he said.

I never even mentioned AC until you brought it up. Are you conflating discussions or something? Your reply said, "Did I miss this tremendous development in science that allows us to store electricity?" Yes, batteries allow for energy storage. Maybe your response should have been more specific, yes? AC can drive electric motors, right? Flywheel energy storage. Yes I know the difference between AC and DC, thanks. Right, "large" is vague. Pumped-storage hydropower would be large. Large-scale battery technology is just starting to be deployed, so extrapolate into the future. The limitation is in the lithium supply. No I never suggested that particular storage mechanism should be used to power LA. That's a strawman argument bordering on ludicrous. You can arbitrarily choose a counter-example by picking a large enough target pool, so it's a useless point.

Pre-2020, I'm sure.

Steak fries are evil? 🤔

Perhaps you are associating it with the Hunter Biden laptop? I do remember she reported a stolen laptop with some PowerPoint slides. Anyway, the woman in the report seems like she's just BS-ing.

Strawman argument. You claimed there was no method of storing energy. Now you switched to "large amounts" of energy. I made no such claim. Stop lying. The largest BESS in the world right now has a capacity of 300 MW/1,200 MWh, with an expansion target of 1,500MW / 6,000MWh.

More than 50% of first round draft picks prove to be busts: https://theriotreport.com/more-than-50-of-first-round-picks-are-busts-and-other-terrifying-draft-statistics/ Ironically, the team that has received the most return on draft capitol (2010-2019) is Seattle: https://www.footballoutsiders.com/stat-analysis/2020/nfl-drafting-efficiency-2010-2019 At least under Carroll/Schneider, this is team is known for trading down for more picks. Perhaps the optimal approach then is to go for volume rather than ranking?

The novel is intended as an allegory rather than a commentary on social status. But I suppose we all have agendas.

Ever heard of a power inverter? Yeah, they exist. I'm not sure you know what you're talking about.

The doors will be locked as he flies past.
