Let's just use the nuclear radiation that pours over the earth incessantly. We're already almost as good at it as we are at burning through our finite resources. Where could we be if all the money dumped into fossil fuels was used for renewables?
Yes thank you for parroting propaganda put out by big oil. If you charge your electric car 100% off a coal powered plant (the dirtiest option generally available), your efficiency is still very substantially better than a gas powered car, and as our infrastructure continues to improve it will have a direct impact on all EVs. Of course if you are running your own solar panels/home battery array, all of this is moot. Can you even imagine what could be accomplished if we were investing into green energy what we are currently throwing into non-renewable energy company subsidies?
If Porsche is building an electric vehicle, then Elon Musk has already won. Elon Musk started to shake up a stagnant century old industry, and if people are competing, it means they are playing his game. He's already said one company can't move the world to electric vehicles by itself.
Oh wow. If you have not had it before, I highly recommend it. A dash of salt, curry, and cayenne pepper on homemade popcorn is amazing. It's really not hard to do on the stove top.
I was actually using it this Monday to test a data entry screen I just made. Sometimes ctrl+ins/shift+ins is a good way to keep from wearing your hands out when you have a lot to move. Either way I like the variety, it diminishes RMS (whoop, used capsloc there)
As for those deriding the term esport, I think you are displaying your own ignorance and falling into typical typecasting. First, go read the definition of sport: http://www.merriam-webster.com... - You will notice that while there is significant talk of physical activity, it is not exclusively physical. Second, while I have played and enjoy watching baseball, I know that I will never reach the skill or compensation levels of professional baseball players, just like I'm never going to acquire the skill or compensation of the best Starcraft players, some of whom earn in the neighborhood of 100k and 170K a year "playing".
Maybe you could once have made generalizations like this and be taken seriously, but the world turns and things change. Get used to it.
I have a laptop where I work, and I periodically stick a cardboard box under my laptop and stand up at my desk. Maybe it's not ideal, but for the price I find it acceptable. You could always try this before you decide to shell out the 1k+, it's not like your body knows the difference. Also, as far as frequency goes, I did the whole 20 minutes/5 minutes thing, though I often forgot to sit down after five minutes.

Really, ./? Now our titles are clickbait instead of informative?
