  1. It takes energy to dig coal. A plant can capture CO2 using sunlight - which is free. If they made the beads out of peas, they could capture CO2 for free and feed people with it.

  2. Pipelines are cheaper for some goods. Who would oppose a pipeline?

  3. The Channel Tunnel (UK-France) is an undersea rail link. The trouble with a Pacific rail link is the "ring of fire".

  4.  @Disthron  Across the Bering Straits? Yes, I think it could be done, but it wouldn't be commercially viable.

  5. Oh TF - you screwed up. The market capitalisation is the value of the shares that are being publicly traded. Trading stopped on Oct 27th. Since then, Twitter has been buying back those shares, so obviously the market capitalisation will fall - it will fall to zero.

  7. Cold kills twice as many people each year as heat does.

  8. It's not meant to power a city, it's meant to absorb a small over-supply, and meet a small over-demand. That would still need thousands of cranes tho.

  9. Too little information, buried in far too much shit.

  11. As shown by the fact that looking at the midday Sun hurts your eyes, yet looking at the setting Sun doesn't.

  12. Yeah, and while we're at it, it's Deutschland, not Germany or Allemagne, and It's La France, not France or Frankreich, and España, not Spain, ...and it's England, not Angleterre or Inglaterra. ...

  13. Ah, man, that was funny!

  14. Your question is insulting.

  15.  @MindeIiux  Ah, you're illiterate - so there's no point trying to tell you anything.

  16. Because both Tf and glass reflect visible light?

  17. In a video titled "SpaceX busted" - every word is criticism. It doesn't matter who laughed at the crash, as TF did not claim Mahlmann laughed. TF makes two comments on the clip, one before "these idiots laughing" and one after - the sarcastic comment.

  18.  @MasonPelt  Ah the old bait and switch: your first claim failed so you change tack.

  19.  @MasonPelt  said "factors that can make something fair use include commentary and criticism. But you have to be criticizing the material you are arguing is fair use." That's a lot of words, let's make it clearer. "fair use include (s) commentary and criticism. But you have to be criticizing" Now, can you spot the fatal flaw in your "foundational understanding of copyright law"? [edit for corrections]

  20.  @MasonPelt  And once again we disagree.

  21. It's anti-nuclear propaganda. Getting the car number-plates right (and telling people so) is to boost credibility of the technical claims - which very few people would know are nonsense.

  22. How many volts?

  23.  @thomasbecker9676  And yet it's precisely that point on which this scam relies.

  24. or it's war. China knowingly exported Covid to the entire world. Limiting its destruction would not be a good thing from China's pov. YouTube serves China.

  26. "In 1869 Alfred E. Beach built an experimental subway line under Broadway, New York, near Warren Street. The line was only 200 feet long. A cylindrical car large enough to hold eighteen people, fitted the bore snugly and was propelled in one direction by compressing the air in the tunnel and in the other direction by exhausting the air.

  30. You can't leave the train until they've turned the electricity off - in which case i think you'd be stumbling around in the dark.

  31. Yes, who could afford to use it - and who would want to?

  32. TF's a believer in the climate scam. He saw some dead trees, and being a chemist, he knew the only possible way to kill a tree is to make it ever-so-slightly warmer.

  34. I'm curious as to why a motor spinning a 14,000 rpm is marketed as if it's a good thing.

  35.  @monster8090  said "Imperialists are by definition people who build and support empires." Like the German 3rd Reich, the USSR, and the Roman Catholic church.

  36.  @agmuntianu  A desert that reflected 60% of its solar radiation back into space, would have a maximum temperature of 15 degC. A desert that reflected 70% would be close to 0 degC.

  37. And much cheaper becuase it eliminates the taxi-driver's wages.

  42. Gold leaf is fragile, and if you put too high a voltage on it, you can  put a crease in it, or even crack it.

  43. So what would photons look like/do in your model air? (and how many photons would there be?)

  44. Fire is a really bad thing in a tunnel, too.

  47. I worked at a VLF radio station for 14 years. 19 kHz at 500 kW. How superhuman am I?
