Trains, trams and trolleybuses are betteer becausr they can be powered by non-carbon energy. Buses and cars have to run on diesel or gasoline, which may be cheaper now than a few years ago (and sourced from withing the country instead of the middle east) but it still contributes to global warming.
Anyway public transport really only exists in 'the Metro' It is either useless or non-iexistant in small towns that are hundreds of miles from the cities.
:Since every land area except for the Antarctic is claimed"
Did you know that a number of countries have claimed part of Antarctica, in fact I don't think there is any part of the land that isn't claimed by someone. These nations include: New Zealand Australia Great Britain Norway Argentina Chile France
However the US does not recognize these claims. I think the main US base dpwn there is in the Ross Dependency (NZ territory) but we let them use it since they fly out of Chch
Well here its currently cloudy and later on today theres a good chance of rain, with it turning to a mixture of snow and rain tomorrow morning In the northeast of the state theyre expecting multi inch accumulations.
It is March after all, and spring doesn't officially start til sunday/
a heat seeking anti air missile locks on to the hot exhaust of a jet engine. It needs to fly faster than the target since its coming from behind. A small drone isn't going to be fast enough, even if the plane is landing or taking off.
well March 21 is the Equinox, so astronomically it should be the middle of spring (in the northern hemisphere.
Anyway in the few days left of official winter, it couldn't really get cold enough to make up for all the warm days we have had. Especially as all the snow has melted.
"Unless ye prefer Tabs Mix Plus - I always found TMP to be too much Kitchen Sink, less stable, with a slower turnaround in bug fixes, AND functionally worse compared to TreeStyleTabs, if yer flavour is Side Left|Right Tabs at least."
FWIW Tabs Mix Plus also just got updated -when I reset FF after the update installed.
There have been different Batmobiles throughout the history of the comic and movies My favorite is the Adam West one from the late 60's I saw one of those in real life at a Con a few years back. Anyway who are they going to sue next - tool companies that make utility belts?
There could beviruses that infct humans on it (HIV, Ebola Zika,etc) as well as computer viruses. Destroying it with high enough temperature is the best bet. For example thermite
