FYI: in Europe we use periods instead of commas to visually separate long integer numbers into groups of 3... a no brainer if you had looked closely and seen he made the "same mistake" twice.
This is literally what First World, Second World, and Third World mean. No it is not, I explained what it means in my previous post.
There was no such fourth world. Yes there was, e.g. Somalia and Ethiopia belonged to the fourth world, now they are third world, Ethiopia even approaching "developing nation" status.
Your definition is a retarded american redefinition of the original terms, and was never used anywhere outside of the US. I doubt it was the standard in the us anyway.
It is not, it refers to the Soviet bloc. It never did:D It referred to countries changing from mainly agrarian to industrialized countries, which overlaps partly obviously with the former eastern block.
Facebook should not be the arbiter of what is "true". Actually they should. And that has nothing to do with "free speech"... you still have free speech even if FB marks it as "anti science".
While I agree many bury them, you have agreed to the terms. Expediaâ(TM)s notice is visible when you scroll down to go to pay so it is in plain sight, for example, and is pretty explicit in your acknowledgement that you have read them and accepted them, even if you actually do not do that. Youâ(TM)ve still entered into a valid contract and are bound by its terms. Just because you didnâ(TM)t read it before you agreed to it doesnâ(TM)t mean it is not binding. No, I did not engage into a "valid contract". I bought a ticket. Or in case of expedia booked a hotel. That is all.
Is this a contract she volunteered, or something you negotiated? It is more like she enforces it on us.
It sounds like this is a cat that was already an adult when it found you? Yes. We assume one once captured her to kill (eat/skin) her and she escaped. She likes to stay around, and sits sometimes demanding at her bowl to get some food. But because she is scared, she often sits there out of sight, behind the corner of the door etc.
But if we eat as 5 or 6, she comes... walks around us in about 2m distance. Takes food we throw to her or place 1m behind our back. If the food is to big to eat at once, she takes it and runs outside and comes back a few minutes later.
After she ate enough, she starts prowling in front of our eyes the rice sacks, climbs the walls and looks into every room, goes onto the roof, comes back down, goes into the toilet to drink water, then goes to the door and as the Thais say: "makes her dress", while she is looking at us.
If she is in our house she has special spotting places, she sits there for 20 minutes and watches to "suspicious regions". Then she shifts position to another spot. Then she prowls again and sniffs everywhere, after a time she thinks fitting for the meal she got, she goes. Some hours later she comes again.
The only affection she shows is: she sleeps under my chair... when I'm not there. Or sometimes on top of it. But she never comes closer (unless food is involved) then about 2m when I'm sitting there working.
You could really write a book abut her... she is the strangest being I ever have seen.
Now define "unpleasant behavior", asshole. Harassing other customers, or personell... should be obvious.
But it seems you are one of those rare autists/aspergers who need perfect fitting terms like "discrimination", otherwise you are unable to argue about a certain topic without getting enraged.
Well, I was thinking to write a book about the cat.
You miss read: she has a contract. if we feed her, then she hunts rats. If we don't fee her she goes outside searching for food. And she does not eat anything she kills, she has not even the dignity to bring the catch, she lets it rot where she kills it. I have no idea how she came to that idea of "contract", she does the exact same thing in the next house. She eats a bit, if she likes the food, she starts hunting. If she does not like it, she goes elsewhere.
And she loves human made food, spicy thai food, she does not eat raw meat or raw fish. She even eats dry rice with no spice at all (no sauce etc.)
But I watch her more, after all, as she "lives" in our houses, she so far never let anyone closer than a meter to her.
No it is not arbitrary. If you are to stupid to read: a guy who is living on the street and comes with pants full of shit and piss and dirt in his hair into a grocery store: you can kick him out. And there is nothing "arbitrary" about that.
How stupid are you?
Who decides what the bar is? The other customers, your nose, your instinct.
Or reduce the worlds population to a few hundred million. That is pointless. As the rest will still produce CO2... sigh how stupid are people in our days.
Natural gas turbines have a max realistic efficiency of about 60%. The gas turbine alone, no. You probably mean a "combined cycle gas plant" which is using the exhaust of gas turbines to power steam turbines.
The liquid state of the reactants means the Thorium reactors can use chemistry to allows burning all of the reaction products and separate out the out put products that have a short half life and are completely safe in a yer or two. While the sentence is technically very long, it is not that long. Anyone can comprehend it. However you made 4 scientific (or is it 5) mistakes on chemistry and physics... a) a thorium reactor is usually not run on molten thorium... and the rest just nonsense.
Technically you are only ROMAN after serving 20 years in the legion. So the filthy dirty jewish legionair who killed Jesus with a spear: was not a ROMAN.;P
However you could argue that the court who convicted him was ROMAN.
Fukushima melted down because the backup batteries ran dead before the generators could be started or a replacement power line could be run. No, it melted down because the earthquake also destroyed the cooling pipelines inside of the plant. Or why do you think the replacement power generators did not work?
If they had a "giga-battery" in Japan like Tesla built for Australia then no one would have heard of Fukushima. False, the connection to the grid was broken, too... so a giga battery would be of no use. Unless you want to have one on the area of the plant, but see point one again.
Well a natural gas turbine is about 30% efficient. ROFL
Hey, perhaps you want to re-read my old comments to you. I gave you some hints. Often enough. and the main hint is: read a damn book about energy production/distribution.
if a gas turbine was only 30% efficient, why would anyone buy one?

American way: 1,000,000
European way: 1.000.000
Simple, isn't it?
I mentioned "business trip", or "trip into town", obviously they have more than one car.
One for farm work and one for other things.
Well, I fly about 2 times a year.
I never needed to agree to anything.
A contract is not required, I have a ticket. Perhaps you understand the concept of ticket. Perhaps not, I don't know.
This is literally what First World, Second World, and Third World mean.
No it is not, I explained what it means in my previous post.

since RMS is doing more harm than good to FOSS because of his idealism.
It is not called idealism but ideology.

Apology for what? Did I accidentally insult you?
You might want to read more carefully when you book a flight. Expedia, for example, includes the following on itâ(TM)s booking page:
By selecting to complete this booking I acknowledge that I have read and accept the above Rules & Restrictions, Terms of Use
The Terms of Use are linked to a page that includes, amongst many other T&Cs:
If they link to another site, it is invalid.
Terms of usage are only valid if they are in plain sight ... and not if it is a 30 pages document elsewhere.
A hydro plant in a river or a dam in a valley is renewable. :D
Why you or the US see it different is beyond me
Perhaps some dams are at places where rain/snow/water is not as predictable as it "should be" ...
Now define "unpleasant behavior", asshole. ... should be obvious.
Harassing other customers, or personell
But it seems you are one of those rare autists/aspergers who need perfect fitting terms like "discrimination", otherwise you are unable to argue about a certain topic without getting enraged.
Saying you can decide someone is too dirty to come in IS FUCKING OPEN TO INTERPRETATION.
Yes it is.
But people usually have common sense about it.
You obviously have no common sense.
it is ALWAYS up to the shop owner.
No it is not.
Hence we have laws.
Can't be so hard to grasp.
The shop owner has no right to put someone outside and keep him outside unless he is a DANGER .... stupid moron.
Well, I was thinking to write a book about the cat.

hydro is NOT considered renewable
Hydro is renewable.
However: pumped storage hydro power is not.
Natural gas turbines have a max realistic efficiency of about 60%.
The gas turbine alone, no. You probably mean a "combined cycle gas plant" which is using the exhaust of gas turbines to power steam turbines.
Stop editing wikipedia articles to your liking.
A gas turbine has 40% efficiency up to 45%. Higher efficiencies are possible in obscure configurations but are not practical.
There is no grid in the world that uses a gas turbine with 30% efficiency. You basically would need to make it artificially inefficient.

To ride around on "business trips" or for shopping, yes they are. Or they have hybrids.
Obviously mowing machines or tractors won't be EVs soon.
way more than any studies say we need to meet.
No idea where you got that from.
We need 100% reduction, not a random percentage.
Well a natural gas turbine is about 30% efficient.
ROFL
