"Yeah 6 months without rain in one of the wettest countries on earth" see, how easy you can make na idiot out of your self? What has the last recent 5 - 6 month to do with the other 6 month were we have rain season? Oh, up here the rain season is only 4 month... dumbass.
There never was a problem. There are losses, most grids have a loss of 5% - 7%. However no one talks about the transmission losses of an oil or gas pipeline (they are much higher).
In AC grids transmission lines compensate for losses by scaling up the voltage. E.g. about 130kV in Germany and over one million volts in 3rd world countries like Kasachstan.
AC lines have the problem that they loose power by radiation and induction to surrounding metal structures. E.g. if the wires hang low you can hold up a flurescence light and it glows by the power loss of a high voltage line.
The modern bust word is HVDC - high voltage direct current, as opposed to AC... the losses to radiation don't exist and if you put the voltage in the 10 million volt range, the losses due to DC versus AC (as in Ohm and resistance) are acceptable.
But to say it bluntly: with a 7% loss you only need to produce 7% more energy. The current grid you are using at the moment already does that. But for some absurd reason it is a problem for renewables...
That is why we have in all TV shows where a scientist is questioned all the lab material, instruments, assistances etc present to show the public that every of his word is right.
And when they diagnose breast cancer in my right breast (yeah, men can get breast cancer) I spent about 5 years in research, and ask my friends to fund it, to confirm the results.
Hint: "if you don't trust in *experts*... what is your job? How can I prevent meeting you?"
Flat earhters don't get the question if the earth is round wrong. How do you come to that retarded idea?
The earth is a circular plate. Everyone knows that. The only open question is: is the plate placed on elephants or turtles... are the elephants placed on a big turtle, or are there only turtles all the way down?
Of course there are metaphysical questions, e.g. if all the water is flowing over the edge... where does it go to? How does it get replenished? What do the turtles eat? Where does the elephant poo go?
A monarch caterpillar does not know it can eat fruits. Pretty stupid example.
Most insects can eat 100 times per gram of weight the poison that would kill you... should give you to think about what is going on with GMOed food hat produces its own poison or GMOed food that is resistent to poison put on it.
Why don't you read your damened link, and try to comprehend it.
For animal food GMO is ok.
All food that is tainted with GMO food must be labeled. Allowed level for GMO food in human consumer products is at the 1% range...
Most all over GMO growth is banned. No one really has an issue with eating it. Growing and destroying the local eco systems are the problem.
We don't eat it because we do not want to support that unnecessary industry. That is all. Oh, but that changed since a few years. With GMO food that is poisonous to insects and rats... who in his sane mind would eat that?
So: what material do you use to pump the molten salt to the stage where the decay products are supposed to be filtered out (with what filter?) and to the stage where fresh fuel is added?
Good luck, if you get funding to build one and the patents, we all will be happy. Obviously no one figured the answer to those questions yet, has no funding and no one builds the reactors.
Not even at places where there is no paper work and you simply could bribe one to get the "permit" to build one...
There never will be a MSR... they are chemically basically impossible. The only thinkable way would be to have a reactor made completely of ceramics, with expansion and shrinking factors for every part in it that it: a) works b) works as in: it is cold and needs to start up but nothing is shrunken to much to block anything c) works as in: it is hot an nothing expanded to much to cause leaks or block anything d) can pump the molten salt around (requires magnetic ceramics, or "magnetic engines" covered in ceramics) e) everything needed to adjust/steer anything needs to be ceramics f) can somehow be started from "not molten" into "now we are hot and molten" state g) transfer the heat out so you can run a turbine, oki hat would be easy, just have another ceramics pipe that is suited for super heat at the entrance point and changes characteristics towards the point where is heating the water. But.... then we are at b) and c) and e) and f) again.
MSRs are completely theoretical mind products... mental masturbation, nothing else.
Put some labels inside: inner box "stuff you know that you know it", outer box "stuff you know that you don't know", rest of the paper "stuff you don't know about that you don't know".
The inner box would e.g. be your native language, the outer box would be "you know there are other languages, but you speak none or know their names", or "you don't know angels blood type"... the rest of the paper is the "unknown unknown"... things you have no glimpse about that anyone else knows anything about it. Imagine a thousand year ago living person not knowing anything about fusion... and suns and stars.
Actually I would like to see the list of questions and the rational why they ask about GMOs... looks more like a black ops of pro GMO activists/lobbyists than a scientific study about self presumed knowledge.
If you wanted to make a study about "self presumed knowledge" you would use 100 to 1000 questions about different topics of science and nature... or even politics and arts and sports.
There are even communist countries where you can run your private business as you see fit... or where big companies exist, which are not state controlled...
And there are countries that "officially" are not communist but are run like communist countries, e.g. Thailand.
For the former I leave it to you to find examples, can't be so hard.
Someone who uses the same "account" for FB, WhatsApp and Instagram is an idiot anyway.
FB is based on your real name... your account info has nothing to do with that, WhatsApp is based on your phone number and Instagramm is most likely email address and password.
Sure, all of them ask you: want to access the phones addressbook? And all of them ask you: what is your phone number. But who is so stupid to answer this? (Yeah, Yeah, retoric question):
Do your friends fill our forms giving FB data about you? Obviously not. So the only "data" FB has about you are pixels covering you somewhere in a photo one of your friends uploaded. And that is not "data". And perhaps he mentions in a comment: and btw. sjames was there, too. That could be considered data.
How the funk would FB know who sjames is? And what actually would they sell to anyone about such a photo?
Like you, I'm convinced, strongly even, that the internet makes people dumber.
a) There is no alternative to Facebook. b) There are only alternatives to Instagram that are pointless to use c) The alternative to WhatsApp only works if you can convince your friends to use the alternative
What is next? You explain us all the alternatives to gasoline which is no one really forced to use as he can buy an electric car, hypothetically?
Phone books don't contain personal information, unless you have a weird definition of what a phone book is or what "person" actually means.
Credit bureaus, I assume that is an organization that knows "something" about your eagerness to repay a credit? Usually you sign a paper that your bank my track such information together with such a bureau. So? You have a contract. I guess that such a bureau is not selling anyone truly private information, e.g. how many kids you have, how old they are and on what schools they go?
procedures & tools that avoid them in the first place? From a sane point of few: yes! But probably is cheaper that way... insane, isn't it?
A Null Pointer Exception is really a failure on the part of the programmer to keep track of their pointers, either they're not initializing them correctly or they are being inadvertently/incorrectly changed during execution. No. They come from programmers not reading the docs. Or languages with no annotations like @NonNull.
Every dumb ass can call a library function that clearly states a parameter my not be null with a null intentionally or by accident.
Everybody knows that at night there is no sun and a PV panel does not work. So you are flamebait dumbass, thats all.
As your parent tried to explain you unpolitely: the load curve is at night the lowest. Depending on country 40% of peak, or even 20% of peak: because everyone is sleeping...
Even a dumbass like you knows that... so why flaming around? To look smart? You failed.
You can do maintenance only if you have access to an industrially advanced society: a society that could not sustain itself on solar alone.
What has that to do with me living in Thailand? Thailand is an industrial advanced society. Hence they e.g. have faster internet even in the most rural areas than anywhere in the US.
I simply pointed out to the parent, that where I live, during this part for the year, I have reliable 13.5h solar power: every single day. However: our power comes from the grid. And as we only have a fridge, 2 computers, light at night and rarely anything else running: our electricity is free.
