You have missed the current focus, can we do CO2 capture at power plants is a big question today, likely why this has funding.
With respect such measures are nothing but cynical public relations measures meant to distract from combustion producing a lot of carbon dioxide in the first place. They are not intended to be taken seriously by anyone other than the naive. I'm no greenie, my wages come from coal and oil, so I'm not saying this due to political motivations. As for writing about how efficient resistance heating is, that's after fuel has been burned, steam has gone through turbines, magnets have spun and losses have happened in transmission - so no - not efficient at all and demonstrates that you just put a gut feeling idea down without thinking. Your deadly in a sealed room furnace or those kerosene heaters that kill lots of people in the third world is better at warming a room - add proper ventilation and far better again. This weird shit of scavenging carbon dioxide as if you are in a space capsule makes it very hard to take you seriously on top of all that especially since it's not the carbon dioxide that is going to kill you.
It may make sense to do this to get CO2 out of a house... to clean the internal air of CO2
This is getting very strange. Surely the point here is to get ethanol when you want ethanol instead of whatever strangeness you are thinking of?
but I doubt you would get 100% efficiency when burning that
Why do that?
vent-less Natural gas fireplace
Not just strange - incredibly fucking dangerous to the point of insanity. I'm not just guessing I've worked in a place where carbon monoxide killed a few people.
The rest of us are thinking of it as another industrial process to make ethanol in possibly a more convenient way than currently and not thinking of "cleaning the air" like trying to stop an incoming tide with a spoon.
I had this happen about three weeks ago with an expensive Fuji-Xerox network printer. Their web site was down for a rewrite or something over a weekend so no MS driver for me until Monday. The linux desktops could use it.
Name me something that exists on the Linux BSD platforms that does not also exist for the Windows platform
Seriously? Quite a few specific applications have never been ported to MS Windows. It's as simple as that. The geophysical software that runs on cluster nodes in my workplace does not have an MS Windows version so that's why the nodes do not run MS Windows. There are dozens of reasons why the application was never ported, why MS windows is a very poor environment for such an application and the licencing costs of an MS Windows cluster would be insane - but what really matters is you chose the OS to fit what you want to run and not the other way around.
They get around that by defining the server environment as things that run MS Exchange and Microsoft Active Directory (their version of LDAP). By that stroke of a pen they are leading the pack.
Bad analogy since HVDC is already going in all over the place and will beat that tanker hands down. Consider instead how handy liquid fuel is to power stuff that moves.
Here is a good article to show that Trump is the one you should be taking about but have been conned by a childish "she's doing it too" playground argument: http://www.politico.com/magazi...
Will the F9 really be launching people in the next couple of years? If not I stand by what I wrote, since as you may recall I used the word "currently" but I'm willing to give "soon" a pass even though that's not what I wrote.
Actually in the bi-partisan US election cycle, it's effectively NOT possible to point out flaws in the Democrat candidate without actually supporting the Republican candidate.
It's a big world out there and a lot of it is either laughing at or appalled at such blind tribalism.
And Assange should remember that Trump supports more extreme forms of torture
This "if you are not for me you are with the terrorists" shit again? (since you didn't get it the first time). Wikileaks distributes what it gets. If you guys want them to post something about Trump then send them something about Trump.
He's got things he's bitching about not solutions thus no policies. That you actually believe the wall thing is a bit of a worry though. Why do you believe the wall thing? Have you ever been outside a city or do you just have utterly no idea of what sort of scale is being spoken about?
Just because someone is strongly biased towards a certain point doesn't necessarily mean they will lie each and every time about it
True, but the site we are describing has a very strong reputation for lying. Take a look at all the incredulous comments on slashdot of people agast that Breitbart is being used as a source as an indication.
It's like expecting truth from 1980s Pravda in the USSR (and yes, I know that the name of that propaganda paper translates to "truth", but it most definitely was full of lies).
This "if you are not for me you are with the terrorists" shit again? It's possible to point out flaws in Hillary without actually supporting Donald Trump. Also look up "extreme rendition" to get an idea why Assange doesn't think much of Hillart and feared for his life if he set foot in Sweden again.
It's kind of implied to the point of very blatant obviousness and didn't have to be said to anyone who has their ears open near a TV or radio these days. Are you suggesting that you are not following things so didn't get it?
Trump, on the other hand, mentioned he might nominate Thiel for SCOTUS and might actually go through an honest default on the USA debt
If that happens the future will be like Firefly in that we'll all have to learn how to speak Chinese if we want to buy or sell anything. Do you REALLY want the US to have an economy smaller than Luxemburg?
A libertarian cheering for an autocrat? That does not happen, that is something else, someone who wants a fucking divine right to rule King and not someone interested in liberty.
Why do you keep on pretending that you cannot understand English when you obviously can?
All 3 our launchers, SLS, Atlas V, and F9, are man-rated
Two of those are not ready and do not appear that they will be ready for a few years so that leaves what I mentioned above - Atlas as used in the Mercury project of 1958. Von Braun's body is a mounderin' in the ground and we aint got the moon no more.

Sorry I thought you were serious above. It's getting very difficult to tell the difference between some Trump advocates and a joke.
I have one of those things that apparently don't exist - it's a "netbook" that came with linux on it.

It's easy, WinNT was no more VMS than MSDOS was CP/M. There are similarities, blatant ripoffs of parts but nowhere near the feature set.
Resistance heating is not efficient by any definition and heat pumps don't come for free either.
No. There is electrolysis going on (an electric current is applied from outside) so there is your energy input to drive the reaction.

You spelled Trump incorrectly.
Google "donald trump constitution fail" for many details.

If not I stand by what I wrote, since as you may recall I used the word "currently" but I'm willing to give "soon" a pass even though that's not what I wrote.
Yes but it's not going to be launching people into space this year or the next. Atlas is what we have now.

No that was "Scooter" Libby.

Trump doesn't have any.
