Unless the study participants were locked in a room and fed a controlled diet what they reported is highly suspect in terms of accuracy.
They have no idea what these people are actually doing in their lives to affect their health. This so called study was about as accurate as an internet survey.
Hell if I vigorously jerk off twice a day and like to drink energy drinks I have a greater increase than what their so called study found in terms of cardiovascular causes of morbidity. Pretty sure most people will lie about habits like that.
Lol, should have said "You might be mistaken on that as well." Damn you/. for no edit but, and you too Ms Delarco (my 7th grade English teacher) you were right. I can't write/spell worth a damn.
Never been to the Smithsonian before have you? They have an entire wing devoted to the ice age. Pretty sure there was some strong consensus. Turns out they were wrong. Just like the Global Warming display next to it.
There is a graph of the global temperatures in the Smithsonian Natural History Museum. It was an regular up and down wandering average over millions of years . The "global warming" portion of the graph was just a small portion of the same graph that was zoomed in on modern times. Basically they are trying to tell us all this "warming/climate change" is significant even though it is basically just noise.
The best part...the trend line shows the temperature going down not up. Of course this display was back when they were telling us were still in an ice age and all going to die and they needed more money to study the phenomena.
Basically I'm sure we could chart all the dangerous threats from weather/climate and discover a correlation with the funding levels in the scientific community.
Funding going down......"OH NO WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIE FROM.......please insert crisis here [cold/heat/flooding/bees dying/asteroids/starvation/radiation]"
Funding going up....... "Ok just keep it at these levels until I can retire.....er I mean find a solution to the crisis"
Basically I've got my bases covered I live far enough south another ice age will at most just force me to start wearing pants on a regular basis, and I'm far enough from the ocean to enjoy a boost in my property values if the oceans were to rise from global warming. I've got plenty guns for dealing with all the starving looters that either crisis will generate.
Lol, lived in the UK with there CCTV......and it did squat all to reduce crime. The police spent all their time watching the cameras and rarely came out to do anything about the actual crime.
The most amazing thing about maybe a 1/8inch per year change is that gives you plenty of time to plan on moving.
Where I grew up (Missouri) there are mountains, little mountains, but mountains all the same that are the remains of ancient reefs and islands. You can go hiking up said mountains and find sea shells everywhere. We are talking several thousands of feet of elevation.
I'm pretty sure we'll be fine even if the ocean starts jumping up a foot every 100 years or so.
Freedom from what being able to do basic math? What country are you from? Just the VAT alone is pretty much 20% or more in every country. Throw in another 10-25% corporate and 20-55% income tax and you easily get to an effective rate of 75% in nearly all of the countries.
I've lived in multiple places in Europe. I had more freedom back home.
May rise? Let me know when we ACTUALLY see some sea rise. Then we can talk about 75% taxers and regulations that basically make everyone a slave to the government, you know like in Europe.
Citing a source that is trying to sell you services on "climate solutions" is the book definition of "not a valid source".
That's like sourcing a drug dealer on which drug you can take that is the least addictive. Yeah because he has no incentive to lie.
Spent two minutes looking around for other sources, found several that weren't attached to political entities. Pretty much the average damage going up follows along with inflation and population density.
Lol, more flooding in coastal cities......I live in Tampa Florida. The ocean is in exactly the same place it was when I moved here in 2009. Hmmmmm what could then be causing all that flooding?! It's not all the hurricanes and tropical storms, because those have actually gone down in number. Might have something to do with very expensive homes going in right on the water. Might have something to do with the acres of pavement being put in every year for housing and business development without a similar investment for run off water management. No that couldn't possibly be it! I'd like to point out that no one gives a shit about "flooding" when it only affects the are poor. It does though suddenly become a giant issue when rich people get to experience and we never hear the end of it as a "growing" problem.
When I visited here many times as a kid there were whole stretches of empty coastline and Tampa used to be surrounded by citrus orchards. Now the coast is a constant line of condos and beach houses for 2 hours in each direction, and all the orchards are HOAs.
People want us to spend trillions of dollars and give up our rights because their $5 million dollar beach house might be affected. Those of you buying into it are a bunch of sheep, and everyone knows that livestock is a major contributor to the "global warming crisis".
We already have one of those for non-military types of service. In the Air Force we called them nonners (non- sortie producing mother fuckers). Those are people who if they vanished tomorrow would have almost no affect on whether aircraft were able to take off and fly.
I believe the Army calls them POGs (Person other than a grunt)
As soon as they make it past basic training they don't do another "military" thing again in their time in other than wear the uniform and fall out for PT once in a while.
Yep, you are right on the money. That was supposed to be the whole point of nuclear weapons. If someone made a big enough threat you glassed their capital and then the war was over in under an hour.
Instead we have this insanely expensive nuclear deterrent that we are unwilling to actually deploy along with the even more expensive expanse of conventional forces.
That's funny. If you join the military they will pay for your school. In the twenty years I was in. I finished 2 bachelors, one in engineering and one in business, a technical associates degree, and had started on a Master's that I got bored of and never finished.
You could cut the military's budget by 90% to get that, or you could cut the social and welfare programs by 20% and get the same result.
Step one: close your borders so you don't have floods of people willing to work low wage jobs.
Step two: cut back welfare/social programs so when you do work you don't have to pay 60-70% of your wages in taxes.
Step three: cut back on government interference and regulations (and the vast numbers of over paid bureaucrats that go with them) so there will be more jobs than people.
Step four: if you don't want to work like a robot you better start learning how to repair robots. In other words get a better job. No one owes you a job for life that comes with everything you need to get by.
They are somewhere around 1 launch every 2-3 weeks. If they dump out 10-100 of these little guys each launch they could work up to a pretty high number in short order. India space agency already has the record for 104 satellites in one launch so it seems pretty reasonable.
Pretty sure their goal is to just dump out a convenient small amount 10-20 as a piggy back on each commercial flight. That would work well with the decaying orbit strategy with cheapo satellites. It would be pretty amazing for innovation since they could constantly be upgrading the specs as they constantly replenish their numbers..
They could also send out good sized swarms when they do test flights. I could imagine they just dump all 7500 out in one go with a dedicated launch.

Beto is a tool.

Unless total fuck-whit means well read, informed, educated engineer I think you might not be mistaken on that as well.

^^^^^ What this guy said.
Lol, lived in the UK with there CCTV......and it did squat all to reduce crime. The police spent all their time watching the cameras and rarely came out to do anything about the actual crime.
Sounds good to me. I'm a scuba diver and boater. I'd love to have some ocean front property in Missouri.
Lol idiots (journalists)
So don't count living much past the warranty.
I'm looking forward to my property values going up as the beach will be much closer with a 30ft increase.
It's like all the so called digital assistants that are more about helping them rather than me.

Bottle of booze will run you $80 in Europe and $30 for the same bottle in the US. I like to think of an ID card as a massive discount card.

You have 2 other options to stick it in that doesn't result in babies. I would suggest trying those before rubbing some bio agent on your dick.
