  1. Re:Press coverage on Rapid Arctic Melt Called 'Planetary Emergency' · · Score: 1

    Except for the melt water from land-locked ice masses. Which, of course, are not yet a topic of immediate interest in the context of polar ice loss. However, the loss of a dense ice sheet may, and probably will, accelerate glacier calving and thereby loss of the Greenland ice.

  2. Re:How is cutting anything being a Democrat? on Poll-Based System Predicts U.S. Election Results For President, Senate · · Score: 1

    And where, oh sage, are your proven domestic reserves that exist in reality and not only on paper? Regarding Keystone, you are aware that this particular project is not domestic in any meaningful sense?

    I met shithouse rats making more sense.

    Yeah, but apparently he lacks the bat-shit craziness and cynicism necessary for a republican candidacy.

    Your goalposts don't just shift, they are quantum goalposts, only taking a specified position when observed...

    You are aware that GCMs are gridded and do in fact predict distributions? For ages actually. Instead of putting the noise into the SNR, you might want to educate yourself a bit before trying to play a "sceptic". And education is not to be found on Watts' site.

  7. Re:On the other hand... on Arctic Sea Ice Hits Record Low Extent · · Score: 1

    What they learn from Watts and Monckton, however, has nothing to do with science, but rather with fitting cherry-picked data to match your pre-made conclusions. That is not a good thing.

    Gas dynamic cold spray. Can be used for extremely resilient parts - commercially, it is used for turbine parts for example. Might be a wee bit out of the hobbyist league, cost-wise, though.

  9. Re:We no longer regulate ads and mail order produc on Should Medical Apps Be Regulated? · · Score: 2

    You mean, you'd rather have a free-for-all abuse and exploitation based on your "free market" religion, instead of science-based regulation agreed upon by the consent of the electorate. Yup. The gubbermint is out to get you. Obviously

  10. Re:It's okay on The Mathematics of 'Legitimate Rape' and Pregnancy · · Score: 1

    Fine morality your goat-herders had there. Well within what every other culture of the time did. I don't blame them for that. Whoever thinks to look at that as any moral guideline these days, however, is scum. The problem is, that fucktards gibbering about "legitimate rape" today, take exactly the position you exposed as biblical in the last sentence. And that makes anyone taking that position less than scum. Less than nothing, to be precise.

  11. Re:is this for real? on Assange Makes Statement Calling For an End To the "Witch Hunt" · · Score: 1

    My analogy is that the UK is threatening to unilaterally cancel the Vienna treaty. On the basis of some ridiculous act they made in the 80s. Which, by itself is already a violation. Yes, they can revoke the diplomatic privileges of the Ecuadorian Embassy. They have to give the residents in there free travel rights out of the country, though. My point here is, if you give up civilized treatment of embassies, expect to be treated in kind.

    If the UK pulls through with its bullshit, China is free to declare the US embassy in China no longer protected, march in, grab whoever they want, shit on the smoldering parts (sorry, those flashbangs set the carpet on fire), waltz out and say "told you so".

    It's the civilized US lapdog that first shat on the Vienna treaty.

    Not my experience, to be honest. I am in the mid thirties myself. You may have been unlucky. I uphold the accusation of assholery on your opinion regarding Tacitus, though ;)

    Gotta wonder how much of an asshole you are in person so that you only find girls like that who would endure staying in a room with you. Oh wait, you are just a misogynist idiot and your stories are mostly anally extracted...

    Ok, sure - look, I never said that the public sector is necessarily always better. That's of course not true. It's not true the other way round, either. Can't really tell you any details, since it's an ongoing deal, but one of my clients is a German-based corp, making all things electric - you may connect the dots from there. Bureaucracy like you haven't seen before is all I can tell you.

    Are you in management then? Or where does this delusion about the supposed efficiency of private bureaucracies come from?

    Oh, look, it is S.Petry. Half of the time spouting christianity in his post history, half of the time advocating to fuck the poor in the ass with a barbed wire wrapped baseball bat, just as Jesus commanded from the mount. Less than nothing.

    I am pretty sure Jesus (if he existed at all) didn't instruct you to shirk all your responsibilities to society and to be a freeloader. As he said on the mount "Fuck you, I got mine", right?
