  1. God damn. Well done.

  2. Touche; mod up.

  3. ...and low fat

    That's good; you're up to date with the current, pervasive notion that "Paleo" means "Atkins." However, it doesn't... and if you begin to look closely at those who adhere to a strict high-fat diet - perhaps by looking in the mirror? - you'll soon realize (if you're willing to admit it) that they begin to look old as fuck very quickly.

    The anthropological/archaeological and biological evidence clearly indicates that even though fats/oils can represent a viable alternate energy source for human beings (what the fuck else are you going to eat north of the Arctic Circle?), we (i.e. the Great Apes) our digestive and metabolic systems are highly optimized for fruit consumption.

    Big Pharma has managed to convince us that's carbs are toxic, which was quite easy because it's only a partial lie; refined carbs from grains and legumes are indeed toxic... and fructose becomes toxic in the presence of fat (fats/oils, stress and lack of sunshine all drive insulin resistance to the moon).

    With this in mind, we need to scrutinize and regulate every fucking purchase and transaction that anyone can make, to be certain that one party isn't taking advantage of the subconscious state of the other party.

    Or you could shoot yourself; I'm all for the latter.

    That is quite a bold assumption.

    Not at all; it was a statistically-likely guess. Now go change your diaper.

    I have to agree with this; I've met a few great people from Wisconsin but also a lot more duds than from surrounding states such as Minnesota and Michigan.

    There's no question that Wisconsin is the 'Oklahoma of the upper Midwest (even Texans and folks from Arkansas and Kansas - none of them places to write home about - recognize OK as the twilight-zone shithole that it is).

    ...those white privilege cro-mag ice people from the north

    Jesting aside, the 'pure cro-mags' are sub-Saharan Africans; the rest of us - particularly those from 'The North' - are the bastard half-breeds (~2% Neanderthal or Denisovian/Neanderthal).

  9. hey're talking about 12,000 satellites!

    This is Musk. The first ten thousand satellites will take twenty years and all be *tests* - but after that, things'll proceed swimmingly; I expect each "Big Fucking Starlink Satellite" to provide facilities for at least fifty thousand space colonists.

  10. many orders of magnitude higher pressure than a hard vacuum

    Can the difference between zero and [any figure over zero] ever be measured in meaningful 'orders of magnitude?'

    Bill, your lack of engineering sense is showing.

  13. And how does "a society" achieve self-awareness?? I kid; it doesn't and you're just talking without thinking.

  14. I merely quote one of the most important and self-evident pieces of wisdom that [one could attempt to live by]... and I'm modded down by the masses. Considering the state of things these days virtually everywhere, and that logical, rational and emphatic abilities are outliers... I'll happily accept those negative points as a blatant, if inadvertent validation.

  15. That being said, I can sympathize a bit with folks who are legitimately offended by something like this (primarily because death as a whole is a subject that requires concern/consideration when talking about it in certain contexts), in contrast to those who are essentially allowing themselves to be offended on behalf of some other entity/group.

    That's being overly charitable. Offense can never be given; the choice of whether to take offense or not is entirely on the part of the 'offendee.'

    The desperate schmucks who've shorted Tesla would love nothing more than another headline but the implication here (that Li-ON is even less stable than some of us may have realized) affects Tesla only indirectly... and effects their [viable, prospective] competition equally.

    Eyebrow raising but otherwise changing nothing.

  17. Why should they? There is no logical reason for them to do so.

    Clearly your ability - or lack thereof - to comprehend the answer to that question greatly depends upon where you're located on the "spectrum."

    Sure, if you defining "conservative" as someone who's pro-police state... and you're comfortable with your circular reasoning.

    By the way, a true conservative (by the U.S. definition, not the European use of the word) would, to over-simplify, be "anti-cop." It was the liberals under Hamilton that began pushing this big gov't, pro-police fascist (pro-aristocracy; anti-little guy) so perhaps it's time to dispense with your convenient but effectively useless worldview...

    This again. Di you know anything about oil shale? Hint: it's not the same thing as shale oil. Oil shale needs to be mined and economically accessing the Green River Formation requires 'in situ' technologies that don't even exist yet... and that's just the start: oil shale is a horrible, inefficient mess like oil-bearing tar sands.
