Having a decent amount of stuff at the ready right when you need it is being well off. If you need to go on a scavenger hunt begging for each item you use only several times a year and have to settle for misfit, worn, dirty, partly broken or unavailable items because that's what somebody is able and willing to lend you, you're poor.
Funny how the leftist movement tries to convince people that being poor is great and the way forward. It ain't, and one should struggle to avoid the temptingly easy path downhill.
How does "The temperature in Phoenix, AZ could become closer to freezing from August to September." sound ? Yeah, it could be technically right, but do you really think this is the preferred phrasing to state that temperatures could drop from the hundreds to the nineties ?
Make no mistake, 'more acidic' instead of 'less alkaline' is a sure indicator of alarmist intent. Whenever one sees it, one does not read further to know from where the wind blows, and one may even suppose that the writer doesn't even know that seawater is alkaline.
Why did the electronics in my charge cable fail 6 months after the two year warranty ran out, costing me more than 600$ (the bill says EUR 578.99) for a replacement ?
$600 is more than a year worth of electricity driving my otherwise awesome Better-Looking-Volt-Than-A-Volt (Opel Ampera).
Electronics not subject to end-user abuse should be designed to last the lifetime of the car. If they don't, they should be replaced under warranty.
Then the facts of the long-time trend - even after all the massaging, tweaking and adjusting of the historic record - being near or below the lower error bars of said cluster are proving previous and current state-of-the-art climate models very wrong.
Just what exactly do you expect will happen if you almost double the amount of the atmospheres main persistent infra red absorber? And if you think it will have no effect can you please explain why you think this.
I'm just curious because I'm sure your stand is based on sound scientific reasoning rather than a rather pathetic attempt at self justification for a "lets carry on business as usual I don't care" approach to the issue which unfortunately is a standard human response to a lot of big problems.
The mean temperature may rise 0.6C. Could be marginally less due to negative feedbacks (hitherto underestimated cloud cover) and other random causes (more than average volcanoes popping, the sun having a fit, an asteroid impact...), could be marginally more due to positive feedbacks (water vapor amplification, hitherto belied by the facts) and other random causes (less than average volcanoes popping, the sun having a fit,...). Let's assume another doubling follows after that before we can't pull any (hydro)carbon out of the ground anymore, because it's not worth to get. We're looking at 1.2C worst case, coming from a post-ice-age low.
I'm old enough to have lived through a significant part of the warming period, and experienced and wise enough to see and comprehend that its supposed negative effects are ranging from undetectable to utterly insignificant and easily adapted to, and will continue to remain so.
AGW biggest problems are its side effects: destructive interference by an idiocracy of dogooders, busybodies, recycled leftists and politicians and the time lost by more sensible people having to push back. Look at the cost to the society due to loss of productivity by this discussion alone.
Where average speed limits are among the lowest in Europe, where speed camera's are EVERYWHERE and where police make it their first priority to deal out fines for driving 60 kph in a (inappropriate and clumsily signalled) 50 zone over dealing with a severe and country-wide burglary wave. Yet accident rates remain among the highest in Europe.
Belgians and Flemish in particular not being too different from Germans, it's proof that treating drivers like children results in drivers behaving like children.
Is it like "cooper?" Or is it like "kiper" - rhymes with hyper?
None of the above.
Take the 'eh' sound in the very beginning of 'earth', keep it completely flat and put it at the + marks in k+p+r, the first for 100ms and the second for 20ms.
You won't be too far off, though your final 'r' will still give you away.
...utilities failing could mean some price spikes and other problems.
Like no power being available at night, and unstable power during the day.
I'm amazed by the dumbfuckedness of solar panel owners who think the grid is an infinite source or sink, decoupled from the reality of production and demand.
Ah, so nuclear power is safe only where people never get lazy?
Ah, so aviation is safe only where people never get lazy? Ah, so eating out is safe only where people never get lazy? Ah, so driving is safe only where people never get lazy? Ah, so swimming is safe only where people never get lazy?
And so on, and so forth.
Something being intrinsically dangerous is not a reason by itself to stop doing it. Regulations and self preservation are among the tools to mitigate the risk to acceptable levels.
To better understand just how depraved the people are who made it.
I'm not joking. Supressing it gives them legitimacy - "the video the government is afraid you'll see" - but letting people watch it exposes the inhumanity of those who made it for everyone to see. The kind of people who might be convinced to join ISIS by watching this video are already so warped that censoring the video won't stop them. But no normal person is going to watch it and come away with anything but deep-seated disgust for the killers.

If you want a smaller form factor than the ZED board, there is MicroZED.
Be advised that working with Xilinx tools, be it ISE/Planahead or Vivado, redefines frustration to a whole new level. While the actual Zynq hardware is decent, the development tools are a bl*ed s*g p*e of s*t full of bugs and undocumented 'gotchas' that chews for hours before throwing up a diarrhea of incomprehensible error messages and/or generate an unworkable result.
Xilinx support is laughable, you will at best find very cryptic hinglish that may or may not be related to your problem but certainly does not do the needful.
Make sure to charge by the hour when contracting, or when you're in the other seat, take out a big liability insurance against workers going postal or suing you for mental abuse.
given xilinx's history in the past, whats the toolchain situation?
in the past i've had to deal with license servers, multi-thousand dollar licenses, being locked into windows, having to reverse engineer internal formats because the tools wouldn't work for me, having day-long synthesis/test cycles because their routing was so abysmal, etc
admittedly I'm an old fuck, so thing may have changed
i scanned the page, but they dont seem to say a single thing about tools.
what the situation?
No that much has changed. The good is that there are free Webpack editions for certain chips. The overwhelming bad is that the long cycles and the unexplainable bugs are still there. It's easy to lose 50K$ on needlessly wasted engineering time over the course of a single project.

Maybe this is more a film noir with a scifi plot device than an actual science fiction movie.
Still, great suggestion. It's vastly underrated.

WTF does that even mean?
Minus 2 times ?

Given that Germany ist best of Claß now und Hochdeutsch ist eine kick-aß Sprache, I'm almost starting to be tempted to doubt you did us a Favor :-)

Units and laymen...
An interview on the radio a few minutes ago mentioned "a community windmill that produces 5MWh."
I assume said windmill probably generates 10 rotations and rotates hundreds of amps.
"Shit to choose from" more accurately describes the offering than "nothing on."
Actually, it took 32768 years. Then its short int turned negative and killed the dinosaurs.
There may be applications for that kind of storage with a unique capacity/throughput/latency combination.
Funny, my arch-enemy, that we share another interest but AFAIK it has been done successfully, so we disagree - again.

I thought the whole point of becoming a politician was it doesn't carry the social stigma of being a prostitute.
Isn't it the other way round ?
