Oh I see. You're one of those refugees from when Slashdot Japan shutdown. Well your link contains no English text so I'll consider that you're final word and incredibly pointless word.
I note that your attempt to deflect attention from the subject, which is bio-accumulation of radionuclides.
I note your attempt to deflect attention from the subject: Safety of the food chain.
Good work though. You moved the goal posts so far your original post doesn't make sense anymore. I mean since you only seem to care about bio-accumulation rather than the final safety of what you catch I assume all that stuff about being a rich harvest for Japan is irrelevant, poisoning is irrelevant, and somehow you mentioned your concerns about the food chain several times yet seem to not care about the standards that govern it.
Your thought process is truly strange. Have you considered donating your brain to science?
You sound like one of those Linux users. By that I mean those people who preference stability over functionality, whose idea of the ideal computer is one that never changes, never goes down, and always works the same as the day you very painstakingly set it up.
Do you like H.265? It's a next gen CODEC that goes against the core philosophy of Open Source thanks to being patent encumbered to all hell. Well I hope you do like it because the alternative is AV1, and if you want to have any hope of playing that format recently you'll probably want to be running VLC 3.0.5 given the improvements to the CODEC there. Good luck finding that in your distribution repo. If you're running Ubuntu you get 3.0.4. If you're running Debian Stable then you get 3.0.3.
Interesting that you mention outdated Java since that's also normally the bastion of the those micromanaging disable auto-updating to save RAM powerusers. Users who couldn't care less normally don't have outdated programs.
People don't care right until functionality is impeded which happens all too frequently. Years ago I managed to irreparably screw up a Linux distro by adding unstable repos for the sole purpose of getting a current version of Zoneminder that recognises my camera and had a functioning web interface because... you guessed it... the old verion in the repo was built on an outdated java applet.
Congratulations on winning the local lottery. Meanwhile where I am right now I've been warned never to drink the tap water. Fortunately I get plenty of bottles delivered to me daily and for everything else there's fermentation;-)
My point was (and still is): drinkable tap water is not a universal certainty. You have an alternative. Current I do not. Well yes I could boil it but then it still tastes like shit.
doesn't change the fact that everyone has them sooner or later.
No they don't. You fundamentally missed the point. Lumping "health care" together is silly on the face of a wildly differing cost of various treatments. The treatments which are truly financially crippling affect only a small minority of the population.
Everyone dies, but death is mostly free of charge. What you die of however can vary greatly in duration and expense.
You're a very sad man if when talking about injury your first thought is liability.
You'll actually find that there's many places around the world which aren't suehappy or places where liability isn't an issue where glass was still banned because of *injury*. Some of us care about others, and don't just care about the risk of others suing us.
That's called observer bias. The idea that dropping out and learning a trade is a road to riches is just daft and ignores the realities of trade industries:
Those who make it big: - Run their own business, and don't play with a welding machine or a socket outlet. - Work for a major company as staff on a large plant often in the middle of bumshart nowhere, and are lucky to have gotten this competitive and sought after role.
Those who you *think* have made it big: - The guy who charges you $80/h labour while you ignore the fact that he wastes half the day driving between jobs and will not be fully booked. - The guy who is loaded in cash today but can't make ends meet tomorrow because the majority of trade based industries are peak and trough cycles.
And above all: You're looking in the bay area and extrapolating. Sorry to burst your bubble, but unless you have a useless degree in golf course management or art critiquing you'll pretty much find work anywhere in the world.
Then when reality sets in and its ether get a job waiting tables or starve they start bitch'n about some mythical fantasy about being entitled to something called a "living wage."
This is an American problem. If you have a degree and are willing to travel you will be earning a living wage. Even if you are waiting tables you'll be earning a living wage.
I have cousin that is welder. He loves his job. One month he is working on a job in New Orleans, a few months later he is welding high steel in Chicago. His job takes him all around the country.
Oh man your cousin must be bored in his job. Last time I saw an American welder it was a group of 5 that we had flown in to Germany from Texas. We laughed at the number of flags on their fire retardant overalls. Apparently their next job was in France at a Total facility.
A job, ether blue collar or white is what you make out of it.
Aint that the truth! I look to my university colleagues. One is a family man, 3 kids, house, same job for 10 years in the same office doing back office design work. Another friend of mine is launching rockets into space for military research. Another is currently trying to get a FTIR analyser working on the worlds largest floating vessel 500km off the coast of Australia. And me... Greetings from my hotel in Egypt (okay that's a cheat I'm on holiday, but I do fly to Italy for work as soon as I get home and this holiday was free due to the accumulation of BA and Marriott points from my job).
On what planet is a starting electrician only making $10/hr?
Depends, before or after expenses? The only rich electricians I know are those lucky enough to get themselves a steady position at a specific industry or large building project with a fixed longer term income.
A household sparky is lucky to be able to pay off the cost of the truck and tools he needs for the job, let alone turn a profit after travelling too and from site for one hour and then enduring the complaints from the customer who can't fathom why it cost them $60+parts to install a new power outlet.
Please guys, use private messages, or even encrypted services. These are valuable resources. They have science in them. They are related to climate change. The only way these resources will continue to stay useful is if Trump doesn't find out about them.
I am sure I do not know every compound that could burn that color of blue,
I know one: Air. When air ionises it turns blue. This happens during a lightning strike, and also happens during HV arcing. Oh and bonus points: It has nothing to do with compounds and everything to do with temperature.
That blue was not simply arcing
You sound like someone who has never seen arcing.... Or a transformer fault for that matter.
there was clearly a significant amount of deflagration going on
Deflagration is a big word, you should look up what it means before using it.
Enjoy all those heavy metals and PCB's there New Yorkers
Transformers don't contain heavy metals, and even old transformers only have trace amounts of PCBs thanks to them being banned in the 70s and routine maintenance or breakdown maintenance replacing most of those components (especially the oil) in old transformers.
But this is NYC we're talking about. Even if it were PCBs, heavy metals, and your tinfoil hat which were vapourised it's probably an improvement over the air there anyway.
I'm pretty sure it didn't given that it's parent company is reporting massive increases in profits YoY and they were also licensing Unreal last year. Oh and the parent company is Chinese based and sensitive to the recent anti-game movement of the Chinese government so if it were just up to the Unreal Engine and existing IP alone it would stand to reason that their profit would have fallen this year instead of doubling.
And then also remember that realistic shooters come and go while Team Fortress 2 still has a player base 11 years later: https://i.kinja-img.com/gawker...
Should tell you all you need to know about the Free to Play model.
That people prefer to look good when they kick arse (or get their arses handed to them)? In other news people buy wonderfully finished silver iPhones and then pay money for something to cover it up in the hope it makes them unique. That doesn't mean their iPhone is any better.

On the upside they can play AV1 unlike the version from the Debian Stable repo.
i don't think people care about that

The ones that are really socialized are notoriously bad, like Canada's for example.
30th for overall health care outcome vs 37th for USA.
35th for overall health vs vs 72nd for the USA.
12th in life expectancy vs 31st for USA.
And it costs a small portion of what it costs in the USA.
Yeah if I were in the USA I would be wishing for a notoriously bad healthcare system too.
You could have just said you don't have a reference to link. But since you have a head full of names and numbers you can provide one right?
It's a liability problem then.
You're a very sad man if when talking about injury your first thought is liability.
You'll actually find that there's many places around the world which aren't suehappy or places where liability isn't an issue where glass was still banned because of *injury*. Some of us care about others, and don't just care about the risk of others suing us.
No. I'm just pro-good-life. I never threw away headphones. My old ones have a cable, and my wireless were bought after aptx came out.
Did you chase after the latest shiny gadget and are now complaining? Shame on you.

Well technically arcing releases a shitton of Ozone so you still shouldn't breath it in :-)

Today's games look nice but play like a 5 year old designed them.
It also happens to be what often makes them fun.
we need to add our own battle royale mode into Fortnite" and -boom- the rest was history.
Metoo usually doesn't sway players to drop one game for another.
