I remember reading that the Great Dying was triggered by methane-producing bacteria. The theory said that their methane-producing metabolic cycle was a new development. But the mentioned lack of oxygen in the oceans would give a big rise to such bacteria anyway.
Methane is a very strong greenhouse gas.
Yes. The US has a law for indirect sanctions, which puts sanctions on foreign companies that do not follow US sanctions. This is already very questionable, maybe even illegal, and fought against by the the European Union, and others.
But how can they take the right to arrest someone for that? It is completely outside their jurisdiction.
The only question arising here is if Amazon should handle such dangerous goods.
Having more people in the warehouse Ofste instead of robots won't make it any safer, it surely increases the number of affected people.
As I understood an issue was also that a parachute would pull on the top, while during start the rocket is pushed at the bottom. It would puta different load on the whole rocket, causing deformations each time and require a more stable construction. Rocket assisted landing creates the load on the rocket in the same way as during launch.
90% of photons from stars end up in a fog. Ok. And that fog absorbs gamma rays.
What kind of fog is that? Photons don't absorb photons, do there must be other matter involved. Are we talking about excited states and ionisation of interstellar gas? (sorry I don't read articles)
CO2 levels take about 10000 years to get back to normal. Well, I think the earth will find a stable state faster than that, once the co2 emissions go down. How many people earth can feed in this time is the important question, which I think is hard to answer.
I think it could also take longer until things get back to what it was, if the temperature rise triggers other changes. But such slow changes shouldn't matter.
Well, there is a reason why the changes within a century are always discussed. These are the ones that are relevant.
Oh, and as a German I am more worried about the Chinese manufacturers than about Tesla. China has a lot of storng companies in this sector, making affordable electric cars. Just still not the same standard as Western cars, but this will improve. Also the Chinse are already delivering motors and batteries for German cars. This is gonna cost a lot of German jobs if manufacturers don't beat them somehow. The Chinese with their large market and low cost are hard to beat though, once they have an established production.
The job numbers in the summary are pretty wrong, no idea where they come from. There are 840,000 jobs in the German car industry. 44.8 Million working people in total, of which 8.2 Million are in the industry,
Yes, does anyone believe that climate models work better than these ecosystem models? They have the same problem, they are never stable.
I am not saying that climate change isn't a fact. The greenhouse effect of CO2 is quite straightforward physics. But I doubt that the complex climate models are much better than the simplest formulas. We know something will happen. And it is probably better not to find out what. In the long run the Earth will most likely fix itself, but in the short run it can go through all kind of unpleasant changes. Historically humanity develops best in the quiet phases of climate changes, we live in such a quiet time.
Yes that's all true, and it is very impressive how good Tesla is, though I don't see why it should be their lunch. They are so good, it makes me wonder how they got all that knowledge. It seems they have exclusive access to better batteries (e.g low cobalt content), and slightly better motors.
But the rest of the car design and production should be pretty straight forward for the existing manufacturers.
I think it is not decided yet how much electric cars will replace ICE cars. ICE cars have advantages: high fuel energy per weight, fast refueling, easy transport of the fuel on an existing infrastructure, a lower cost.
I didn't see the vehicles in real yet, but according to this the Audi has a larger range and battery than the Tesla for the same price. You have to pay $16000 more to get that from Tesla. https://techcrunch.com/2018/09...

Although my Moto Z2 IS unreasonably thin and large, but it still lasts two days on a charge, or a day of extreme usage. The mainstream phones are just overrated, overpriced and not the best for everyone.
Phones got expensive? Here I can get the moto g5 for £125, unlocked and without contact. And it offers much more than anyone needs.
It's everyone's own fault of they can't look past the Apple and Samsung top models. I honestly have no idea why anyone buys them, the ratio of cost and benefit is total crap.
Writing from my Moto Z2 play.
Why? Quantum mechanics says nothing about gravity. And special relativity is so simple, it shouldn't really bea problem to extend it.
I guess Newton's law of gravity would just work with negative masses. And special relativity? Maybe an absolute value of the mass has to be taken somewhere, otherwise I don't seea problem?
... and in the desktop version it does not even show up under "Most discussed".
And in the mobile version the whole discussion is invisible.
Looks like two major bugs in the webpage, or is just my account messed up?
The German subs with fuel cells also have diesel generators because of that.
Their total range is actually larger than the Soryu class. Their endurance without snorkeling is 3 weeks, but I did not find that number for the Japanese boat.
Nuclear submarines can be detected by satellites which look for the heated water that was used for cooling. This is where batteries and fuel cells are better.
I think the most important numbers here are: 250 million tons of zinc reserves, 12-13 tons mined per year. So we run out of zinc in 20 years at current mining rates.
Maybe 2), I don't know. I think 3) is what the summary says can't happen, and 1) would be an unknown process which might be even more revoutionary than an unknown particle.
I have seen 40 year old plastic from the Eastern Bloc, which is still completely fine. It is still as soft as new, not turning brittle after some years like today's plastic.
So the plasticiser isn't leaking out like today's. But it was banned because the substance is cancerous. Why should we care though if it doesn't leak out? And beside the probably less health effects we would get long lasting products. Maybe that's the actual reason why it is banned?
Anyone knows the name of the substance? Chinese plastics were also on the news years ago fora cancerous plasticiser, this could be the same.
You should buy one of these hands free sets for your old car. Just plug it into the audio port and cigarette lighter. It connects to the phone by Bluetooth.
This solves everything, I even use this for my phone that has a headphone jack. The device has buttons to change songs. And without audio cable the phone can be charged without creating a ground loop, which often messes up the sound.

Technically they could be5 years out, I believe that. But regulation-wise there is a long way to go. That's not gonna happen in5 years.
