" "Historic central/eastern Pacific outbreak- 3 major hurricanes at once for the first time on record!""
Yep, ON RECORD. But since the records barely go back more than 120 years, and the sats needed to spot storms that form so far from any habitable area have only been in geostationary orbit for about 50 years, the record is extremely short and says NOTHING about global warming.
Last night I had a conversation with someone about kitchen knives, and then just this afternoon I had ANOTHER conversation with a different person about kitchen knives. Two conversations on kitchen knives within 24 hours! That has never happened before. Sure climate change is to blame for it.
Or maybe you should stop threatening people with kitchen knives.
Hopefully, these hurricanes are heading to California. We need the water — and the shark fins for soup.
I doubt torrential rain from even a mild tropic storm would solve the problem. Well, unless you call washing away the dried soil for good a solution. Those mud slides should give nice picture though.
Bad assumption. There is storm data (and damn good data) going back to the 1850s.
You know what sailors did when there was a storm on the horizon in 1850? They sailed in the opposite fucking direction and sometimes outran the storm, and if they couldnt outrun the storm and it actually was a hurricane they fucking died right there in the ocean.
You know what sailors do today when there is a storm on the horizon in 2015? They still sail the opposite fucking direction.
No you ignorant twat, there really isnt fucking records. Scientists admit it. Why wont you?
You know what the sailors did when they sailed "the opposite fucking direction"? They fucking wrote it into their fucking logs, which fucking were fucking analysed by fucking scientists, and that fucking data put into fucking storm records (that would be fucking {storm records}, not {fucking storm} records of course).
I think that story was about either the Atlantic in general, or Florida in particular. A hurricane hasn't made landfall in Florida in something like a decade now, which was pretty similar to the entire east coast. When Sandy hit it was not classified as a hurricane. I heard a climatologist on NPR mentioning how hurricanes don't care about what happened the previous year.
No major (Cat 3+) hurricane has made landfall on the US mainland since 2005 (Wilma). This is also a record, though not one the warmists like to talk about. After 2005, the doomsayers were predicting tons of (east coast) major hurricanes being the new normal.
Yeah, and the fact since 2005 (which was the most active year), we had three (of five joint years) of the third most active years doesn't show in the icy brain's talks. IOW 4 years since (and including) 2005 were among the 7 most active Hurricane seasons.
Yes. I understand. I'm reacting to the chicken-little-esque aspect of global warming hysterics (oops I mean climate change).
No, you are reacting to some cherry picking shit you read on the usual Denialosphere blogs. There have been 2 Hurricanes this season, 1 of them major. Just because none of them hit land in the US doesn't make them go away.
Yes, what is interesting about this is who wrote it-- this is one of the first detailed analyses of the methods and costs of dealing with global warming that I've seen that is not from an advocacy group, and is written by people who actually have a clue about real world economics.
Which of course means that the "sceptics" will reject it because of the all too obvious financial conspiracy.
1952, Chalk River, Canada: A reactor shutoff rod failure, combined with several operator errors, led to a major power excursion of more than double the reactor's rated output at AECL's NRX reactor.
Many of the other "nuclear accidents" (OMG!! OMG!!!) you're trolling are equally exciting, and this one is rated at 5 on a scale of 1-7.
That accident totally destroyed the building and the reactor core, not to mention the thousands of curies of fission products that were released into the atmosphere, and a million gallons of radioactively contaminated water had to be pumped out of the basement and "disposed of" in shallow trenches not far from the Ottawa River.
. If you decide to invest billions of dollars to have a single plant provide a large percentage of your countries power supply, you'd hope that it didn't just blow up and become useless with such a "harmless" incident. Completely ignoring the radiation, it's fiscally insane.
Closest I can come to finding a "radioactive wasteland" on Earth today are coal-ash heaps outside coal plants. Pretty much nothing grows,and the solid radioisotopes make it as close to a "radioactive wasteland" as you'll find on Earth today....
And ten years later those coal wastelands look a little different, and there are no armed guards who keep you from entering. http://www.theguardian.com/env...
Actually, it has everything to do with free speech. Here in the US, it is absolutely legal for me to say, for example:
"Those pig-fucking ape-brained Germans should be exterminated, each and every one. Everyone should find the nearest Germans, burn them out of their homes and shoot them down as they flee, men, women and children alike. And in the future, little children should be taught in school to celebrate the wholly righteous total genocide of the German people."
Because, you see, in the US I actually have freedom of speech.
Facebook policy, of course, bans such a statement just like it bans bare breasts, but US law doesn't require the censorship of either.
Well, I can say "Those pig-fucking ape-brained Americunts should be exterminated, each and every one. Everyone should find the nearest American, burn them out of their homes and shoot them down as they flee, men, women and children alike. And in the future, little children should be taught in school to celebrate the wholly righteous total genocide of the American people." in Germany without a problem. I just did. Fuck you, you American pig-fucker.
Article 118 of the Weimar constitution forbade censorship with the text "No censorship will take place". The only exception to this article was film. The film industry was regulated by the Film Assessment Headquarters. The purpose of this organization was to censor films released in Germany for pornography and other indecent content.
Yes, clarity is counterproductive. But you haven't clarified whether a non-jew-hater that's anti-zionist is or isn't antisemitic. Or does that change based on your agenda at the time, so you prefer to not be clear so your hypocrisy is less obvious?
The only way an anti-zionist can be non-antisemitic is if he's a "self-hating Jew".
What do the Facebook Community standards have to do with the fact that Germany has strong restrictions on free speech, or that the German government is haunting an American company in order to get its restrictive speech laws implemented?
Do you even think before you post?
Are you too stupid to see that Facebook claims to have stronger restrictions on free speech than Germany, and that Germany is simply asking why they only pretend?
FUCK IMMIGRANTS!
Immigrants are fucking up EU and I can see why SJW from USA are on their hind legs "protecting" useless scum from Africa - you assholes want EU to collapse!
Careful posting that on Facebook - if they believe your "fuck" has to do with sex, they could delete it.
Hate speech is NOT illegal in the United States. Why do people form other countries always assume we have laws against Hate Speech? We have no such laws here, nearly all speech that does not cause an imminent threat of danger (ie trying to agitate a group of people into a riot) is protected.
Hate speech is against the Facebook Community Standards (even in the US), and Facebook says it will be deleted. Germany is merely asking why the fuck they only seem to delete posts when they regard nudity.
Facebook removes hate speech, which includes content that directly attacks people based on their:
Race,
Ethnicity,
National origin,
Religious affiliation,
Sexual orientation,
Sex, gender, or gender identity, or
Serious disabilities or diseases.
Organizations and people dedicated to promoting hatred against these protected groups are not allowed a presence on Facebook. As with all of our standards, we rely on our community to report this content to us.
A devout Christian thinks homosexuality is an abomination and posts some passionate stuff about it.
An atheist posts some passionate stuff against religion - and targets one, like Judaism.
And I have seen things here on Slashdot that could be considered hate speech by the overly sensitive. Look at the posts for any article about diversity in tech here on Slashdot.
If you do not like what someone says ; ignore it, argue against it or make fun of it (Mel Brooks is a God in that domain) - but NEVER ban it because it gives the 'haters" more power. People like banned things.
You worthless piece of shit should be send to the gas chamber.

Yes. If you give that script access first. IOW no, not really. If you instead block it, you have to enable it before it can even ask again.

Windscale was not a nuclear powerplant.
Windscale was used to recycle fuel from and for NPPs. You can't just ignore it to brighten up your safety statistics.
1952, Chalk River, Canada: A reactor shutoff rod failure, combined with several operator errors, led to a major power excursion of more than double the reactor's rated output at AECL's NRX reactor.

Plus it was so bad, he mentioned it twice. I remember the time I died of radiation sickness after visiting the barren wasteland that is Chalk River
He mentioned Chalk River twice because two accidents happened there - did the radiation also burn that from memory?
Closest I can come to finding a "radioactive wasteland" on Earth today are coal-ash heaps outside coal plants. Pretty much nothing grows,and the solid radioisotopes make it as close to a "radioactive wasteland" as you'll find on Earth today....

Fuck you, you American pig-fucker.
True: Germany has limited freedom of speech for centuries. It didn't prevent the Nazi rise to power, and it arguably contributed to it.
Wrong. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

The only way an anti-zionist can be non-antisemitic is if he's a "self-hating Jew".
Because Facebook is run by Americans, who seem to have a better grasp on what is actually hate speech and what isn't?
So "You should die in a gas chamber" is hate speech in the US but not in Germany - according to Americans? Or what? Do you have a fucking point?
Define hate speech.
You worthless piece of shit should be send to the gas chamber.
Wow, the GP gave a list of grey areas and you posted some clear hate speech to try to refute him.
No, I posted hate speech to test his words. Looks like you at least are as much a free speech hater has him. Burn in hell, Nazi scum.

Maas requests that Facebook obeys the law and deletes posts containing hate speech and calls for violence. Such shit is even illegal in the US.

The Nazis mercy-killed morons like you.
True: Germany has limited freedom of speech for centuries. It didn't prevent the Nazi rise to power, and it arguably contributed to it.
Perhaps it's time for Germany to actually change its "interpretation of freedom of speech" instead of clinging on to what hasn't worked historically.
Maybe you should read the Facebook Community Standards before looking even dumber. Too late.
Define hate speech.
