    uh, as a guy who has only voted 3x for a GOP or Dem in 12 elections, and has open said that he will not vote for either of the 2 criminals, well, it sounds like you are the one that should stop voting.

    From an ROI pov, it was foolish to cut this project. Right now, south Korean companies are working on tizen, while Chinese, as well as Russian, gov are working on on clones. Then you have Europe pushing for something else as well. In each case, those regions have control of the hardware, which means that Google can not control this. However, if Google does ara, it creates an incredible competition at daughterboard level, rather than at phone. In addition, it allows for new players to jump in easily and have consumers make choices, not telephone providers.

    Relax. The whole reason why O pushed private space was to get low costs for space access. Once the GOP is out of CONgress, we will see nasa no longer being used for a jobs bill. Of course, the GOPs nightmare with SLS still has to be killed.

    74 million is a joke. They manipulate their money against the dollar for pushing software. No different than China. In addition, all of the expensive instruments came from other nations. Now, with that said, the fact that a relatively young organization got right on first go was cool.

    I always laugh at ppl like you. You will claim that far right fascists are actually liberal. For example, YOU have called W liberal. Yet, since the great depression, he is considered the most conservative president by historical ranking. Much more so than even reagan. Basically, you have to go back to Harding and Coolidge to get presidents that conservative. And now, you claim that another far right fascists like trump is a liberal even though his policies are further right than Coolidge and harding. Amazing

    I agree that having THIS CONgress is worthless. Few of them , esp in the GOP have done a fucking thing. Hopefully most other ppl are more intelligent than you and know that these last 2 CONgress are in official history as America's worst congresses. Yes, historian rank them as having accomplished the least even when we need them so badly. They have submitted the fewest number of bills. Hopefully, the GOP loss BOTH houses of CONgress and the GOP then breaks up.

    Basically, the ability of the environment to absorb the co2 had been depleted. IOW, mankind had been adding co2 for millenniums above and beyond what nature could handle. Had industrial revolution not happened, then it simply means that this would have been delayed.

  18. So many like to point to industrial revolution for causing this. Yet, what this study is really saying is that for centuries, if not millenniums, man had been overwhelming nature and slowly breaking down its ability to absorb the co2.

    uh, I am guessing that you have never owned a luxury ANYTHING.
    MB, Audi, BMW, Caddy, Lexus, etc all hold their resale value MUCH better than other cars.
    That is why the wealthy buy them. What will drive them down in resale is if nobody wants to own an ICE vehicle anymore.

    Nope.
    What it amounts to, is that luxury sedans are going to take a HUGE dive in resale value when M3 hits the market.
    Then when MY hits, I believe that even the luxury X-overs will have major resale value losses.
    As that sinks into the wealthy, they will INSIST on buying only electric and only ones that are like Tesla.
    They are not going to buy junk like I3.
