Wolf populations are bouncing back in a big way. To the point you need to know about them even in the black forest last time i was there. Bears are also coming back in the south east.
You also want good DC or line imbalance detection/trips or high current neutral breakers. It is often put in, but less rigorously than pure overcurrent breakers because you often run a little imbalanced anyway (ie most houses are only wired with one phase).
Buhahahahaha, oh wait you believe that bullshit. Here is a hint. The core was a really really bad hollywood movie. Not real life. Look it up dumb arse. The internet makes that easier than ever.
You know that many transformers. Especially the big ones, have protections built in that do get tripped in such events. In fact in the last bit one most of the breakers etc *did* trip saving most of the grid. Hence why power was restored hours later.
breakers and any core saturation cutoffs (often installed) will in fact trip, *as they did last time* will high DC currents that are what typically disrupt the gird on one of these events.
Once they have a plan, then they need specially prepared gear, vehicles, etc. They don't have enough hardened / sheltered "stuff" to even have a hope of dealing with a really significant event.
God dammit. Solar flares are not fucking EMP events. It is not a nuke. It will have ZERO effect on cars, boats, planes cellphones. In fact anything that doesn't have a circuit loop measured in hundreds of km is totally uneffected. ie they only thing affect is the grid. That is it. Oh and circuit breakers and other limit devices do tend to protect most of the hardware in that case as well.
You should know better. AGW is *all* politics now. Even many of the scientists are doing it. The science is now irrelevant. Man that is going to come back to bite us in the end.
Citation required. Really. Show that not all predictions are wrong. Unless the prediction is something really stupid. Like we will have more cars/planes/washing machines. Your going to come up empty on anything like economics or politics. And don't' forget the requirement of 100 years.
No it is not. I has produced less science than i have. And i didn't spend billions and billions to do it. ISS was, is and always will be a massive waste of money.
FOCAL is in fact far more plausible than much of the outside of the box thinking. Solar sails can even get you out far enough from the sun. However i am a little suspicious of the diffraction limit claim. It is not really a big lense. Just approximately so, with a massive ball of 6000C plasma in the middle of the camera.
The politicians are clearly totally clueless on the topic. However a few hacked email accounts or wifi routers and some juicy scandals centered around them, and they may just start figuring it out.
Even when a carburetor is not old. They are very complicated and difficult things to fix. I know, i did several times on my 1974 Hilman hunter. The later ones where even worse. My 1990 motor cycle carb had more parts, most moving than you could shake a stick at. Fuel inject is a far simpler system.
The speeding ticket link is not loading. I assume that is for the whole US. And as for San Francisco, 80M sounds like a lot, but for a city of that size it a line item. 6B for a nation (~300B month just for the Fed + local government) is so small you may as well worry about the lack of tax from buggy whip manufactures.
Sure it a lot of money on its own. But in the bigger scheme of things it just isn't.
Yes that is the best theory that matches the data by a mile. You clearly haven't bothered to read ANYTHING other than a few/. summaries about the topic. You are willfully ignorant. You put effort into being ignorant. Then you claim you have some insight.
We would get ISP that would advertise that they don't throttle. I get my full 15MB 24/7 here. I can't see why they would start throttling. They are not about to just have half the fiber go dark.. cus profits. Since it won't affect profits. Not using infrastructure you already have doesn't save money.
Oh god. Not this again. There really is no better explanation. It may feel handwavium to you, but that is because you are willfully ignorant of the data and the theory. There is more data backing up darkmatter than global warming. Also we go through the same ignorant replies below for this topic.
/. Home of people that think they are smart because they can configure a router, but really its a bunch of illiterate idiots.

Biodiversity is not getting reduced from GW. It is habitat removal and over fishing. Plian and simple.

Lots and lots of Hinky meter overload from this post. EMP and solar flares/geomagnetic storms are just not the same thing.

Was hoping for cows. Left disappointed.
Well it is an economics paper. It is not like that is real science anyway. Make stuff up. Get a good story going. Publish in Nature. Profit.

That is always a problem when there is a political bias in what predictions to pick out of the sea of possible ones.

General relativity results in 2x as much bending via gravity as classical theory IIRC (or is it half as much). So there is a difference.
There is a reason why it doesn't get past peer review. Things like last time, no statistically significant force, "but look its a force"! Sheesh.

people say this a lot. Got any data on that. And citation if you will.
good luck fixing a carburetor.Or the fuel pump. How much oil does it leak? Thing about the good old days is, they weren't.
