In my experience banning the troll only agitates it. I was thinking, why not give them their own little sandbox, where only users marked as 'troll' could see posts by other trolls?
the water absorbs the gamma too quickly which results in a smaller "fireball" and a smaller blast, dirt even more so. The "fireball" is the point where the color temperature of the radiated photons drop out of visible and into the IR spectra. Remember even a small nuclear blast is a big blast
An average bolt of lightning carries an electric current of 40 kiloamperes (kA) (although some bolts can be up to 120 kA), and transfers a charge of five coulombs and 500 MJ. The voltage depends on the length of the bolt, with the dielectric breakdown of air being three million volts per meter; this works out to approximately one gigavolt (one billion volts) for a 300 m (1000 ft) lightning bolt. With an electric current of 100 kA, this gives a power of 100 terawatts. Properties of lightning I don't think it's possible to isolate from 1GV, that will rip atoms apart.
That would have no practical benefit, any point on the cable or gondola would start a corona discharge that would eventually arc over, even airplanes get hit with lightening.
3 drag carbon nanotube cable through a thunder storm 4 light up like Uncle Fester
The electric potentials on Earth often get pretty extreme during an electrical storm and carbon nanotube are conductive. I've seen videos of carbon nanotubes exploding when irradiated with a flash of light, that's a bad combination! If they shoot rockets into the sky to bring down lightening trailing a thin conductive wire or even a conductive contrail imagine what something massive like a space elevator cable will do!
I remember seeing an actual video of the command module orbiting the moon taken through a big ass schmidt-cassegrainian camera telescope, you could just barley recognize the CM and it as on the ragged edge of the usage resolution. To image the flag from Earth or LEO is probably impossible but the Hubble would be the tool of choice to find out for sure.
Actually the Russians are the de facto masters of hybrid parachute-thruster technology, not only do they use it for their spacecraft their military use the same technic for parachuting heavy cargo in military airdrops.
The blast is deceptive, it is generated by the released gamma radiation being absorbed by surrounding matter rather than by the contents of the bomb absorbing energy. On Earth nuclear explosions have a big blast because their is plenty of atmosphere to absorb the gamma, radiate less energetic photons, and expand, a nuclear burst in the water is much less effective blast-wise than an airburst and a in-ground blast is down-right disappointing. In space there is no practically atmosphere so there is little to expand due to the energy release except for the ablative coatings in the engines themselves. Eventually we'll be pushing asteroids around by detonating nuc's near them which will vaporize the surface facing the release and generating the expanding reaction mass.
Mr. Paranoid Admin with a God complex had big freakin' huge vulnerabilities on his precious network?
Nobody ever assumes that an evil cr/hacker will find the hidden backdoor installed for Mr Paranoid Admin's personal use. The other thing is since SF had no security policy in place, how do you determine a connection is unauthorized anyways? The biggest problem I see is too many people making network management decisions on the fly, it's hard to see the big picture when your flying by the seat of your pants.
Their governments prints these really cool manuals, if read them rightside up and front to back they are in English, if you flip them upside-down and read from back to front they are in French!
I've seen experiments conducted by aquarists that show adding micro-nutrients also reduce algae blooms by allowing more advanced plants to out-compete the algae for phosporus.
Well that's a given after all if people aren't buying fuel, then the State isn't collecting fuel taxes so we'll be switching to a usage model and every road will be a toll road and every car will have a "speed-pass" so billing for the recharge will be easy once the infrastructure is in. I wouldn't be surprised is the cars and the power companies don't start negotiations when you plug in and you'll never know if your buying or sell electricity.
Why not rent an appropriate vehicle for the three times a year that you actually haul the boat or pick up some drywall for the kitchen remodel, an own the economical and environmentally sound daily driver you use for commuting every day?
What I'm saying is that AGW is not proven, climatology isn't even a science by any stretch of the imagination, it reminds me of astrology, something that scientists did to feed themselves in the hopes they could squeeze some real science in along the way with the fancy telescopes purchased by patrons interested in superstition and religion.
Yes there are plausible mechanisms for climate change modeled on computers, and there is considerable supporting evidence to make reasonable people suspect that climate change is exacerbated by human activity, but it in my book you still fall short of proving causality, being correct by accident doesn't mean your methodology or conclusions were sound.
There is only one difficulty for them - many people who remember cold winters of mid-70s are still alive - you can ask them : there was too much cold, not hot, weather those days.
yep I'm one of them, we used to snowmobile around here at about 33 degrees N in Michigan all winter, now you have to go up to 45 degrees to get the same snow we had back in the '70s.
Not real likely, seawater has a pretty complicated buffer system in which calcium plays a large part, but fortunately most calcium salt are very insoluble in water and the water is naturally saturate with calcium. As adding CaO will increase the pH, the additional CO2 absorbed will decrease it, overall the pH will increase slightly and presently it's a tad too low.
All of this can easily be tested in a saltwater aquarium.
Seems to me that one well conceived and executed Controlled experiment would be all it takes; otherwise you will have a difficult time convincing rational people Global Warming is proven to be caused by human activity rather than a coincidence. A population of one make the statistic unconvincing, I've done enough computer programing to be unimpressed by computer models.
fish don't fuck in the water, whales, dolphins, seals and walruses fuck in the water but not fish; in fact you should be glad you don't know what fish really do in the water, it makes fucking look pretty neat and tidey!
Don't see how, you could buy them wholesale at about E5.00, sell a case of 10 for E100.00, tack on E15.00 for shipping and handling, make us happy and make obscene profits saving the environment! If it were possible, somebody would be doing it already

Oh yeah, Bussard Ramjets rocks as long as the Syncrotron Radiation doesn't fry your ass.

It shouldn't be that hard to send a cache of fuel to fuel a return trip.

yup, eight engines and the same firing order as a small block chevy engine.

Three years ago I saw a zeolyte that absorbs phosphorus, being sold to water gardeners specifically to inhibit algae blooms!

Obviously you haven't smoked a lot of marijuana or done LSD or you would have noticed it around 1969.
