Same in Vienna. Even the short bus routes are 2/3 full for most of the trip. These are long articulated buses with IIRC 60 seats. I can't see a average of 10 being true even if you include the nightline buses (runs when the subways finishes).
Believe it or not, predicting the tomorrow weather is much much more complicated than predicting the climate in 10 years.
This is in fact not true. Yes predicting weather and predicting climate is *different* but thats not the same as easier, and is most definitely *not* easier. In fact many climate models do model weather in about 20min intervals IIRC generally on a coarser grid with simpler local models to ease the computational burden. Even the idea of ensemble averages is used in both fields, and typically anyone who studies weather also has studied climate and visa versa to some extent ( often even wider geosciences in general).
These things (weather and climate) are not as separable as/. wants to believe. And climate forecasting has much less of a precedent with respect to predictability than weather forecasting (we have less experience with 100 year and even 10 year "forecasts" )
You grow up a product of your environment and you don't really look back until you're 30 and realize what could have been..
They could have been much much worse... You could have been born in a worse family, or in a worse country. Or you could have had mind shattering trauma earlier or worse... etc.
The thing about "imagine how awesome things would if...." fail to even acknowledge how good things *are*.
What are you smoking. What a lawyer can or can't do has nothing to do with what they should or should not do. Legal obligation or otherwise. ditto for patent applicants. When was the last time anyone got penalized for patenting something frivolous? There are no consequences to either the patent office, the patent applicant or the patent attorney for deliberately filling for something they all know is not patentable. Its gets through anyway. And if later, after costing a lot of people a lot of money the courts say it should not have been granted. There is no fine or fee or liability for it.
So they keep on doing it.
Its far more expensive to defend against a patent that is later ruled to be invalid that it is to get one. That is assuming your not bankrupt before its all over.
you don't need infinite densities for black holes. In fact as the mass goes up, the density goes down. A Finite density object with a radius smaller than the event horizon radius is a black hole and is indistinguishable from a more dense object since the event horizon radius will be the same if the mass is the same.
I watched the unedited version first. It looked as it was presented. Begging to shoot unarmed civilians that was *rescuing* the injured. When they found out that children were in the van the answer is "well the shouldn't bring children to a war zone". The US brought the warzone to their *home* city, a city with families in it, ie children etc. Its their job to not fire upon civilians. The pilots even lie about being shot at. In a *gun ship*.
It looked no more innocent than the edited version.
Where I live, I don't need to afford any cure or treatment. I just get it. Rich or "poor". Hell I even get money to sit on my arse if i am happy enough with just a roof over my head, heating for the winter and food in my tummy. Since i still get health care, i also still have my health.
Europeans are generally more educated and less likely to grow ass roots into the couch for a free TV lobotomy than their US counterparts.
I wish this were true. We are not better than the US, but we are a lot older...... You would think we would learn something from all the extra experience. But it just isn't true.
You mean like the genus Heinz-Christian Strache head of the FPO party in Austria? The guy is an bigoted idiot and totally ignorant of even the most basic things for his line of work. Yet more than 20% of the people voted for him.
We can "see" darkness. There is no light there in any wavelength... even the CMB. So the "dust blocking light" doesn't work. Lumpiness does not affect galactic rotation and still doesn't really work for large scale structure. Mass estimates wrong? Well then binary stars etc would orbit with different periods to what is observed and galaxies would be either much brighter or dimmer than they are.
The rest of your theory's are "worse" in the sense you are adding not a particle but a force, or changing forces themselves than a dark matter theory and don't explain the observation of the bullet cluster.
Your final speculation is close to just claiming that the FSM did it. Practical useful theory's are preferable(aka dark matter) to "we can't understand".
Every alternative theory to dark matter explains *less* of the observations than dark matter does (typically only one thing ie galactic rotation, but not CMB or large scale structure). Like or love it, its the best theory that fits the data that we have. And despite the fact that its wasn't well like for a long time, a better theory just have not been put forward.
That would have slowed down with the *rest* of the baryonic matter that we did observe, because its affected by the other forces. The massive amount of mass that we can literally see its gravitational influence was not slowed down and hence is at best only very weakly interacting as far as all other forces are concerned (most importantly the electromagnetic). aka "dark".
Dark matter is not "dark" in the sense that's its hard to see. But dark in the sense that it pretty much only interacts with other matter via gravity. And we have "Seen" it. Many people including myself had to just admit that dark matter is the best theory to explain the observations after the bullet cluster discovery. I (and many others) where not such big fans of the theory before this.
Planets make up less than 1% the mass of the solar system. We expect about the same ratio of other systems. Also brown dwarfs are tiny compared to a "real" star. So 3x the number of *stars* is not the same as 3 times the mass. In fact the mass estimates won't change much at all. Its not like we haven't though of this before you know.
No! They could just stick the bomb up their arse. Will you then submit to a cavity search. Let them put their hand up your arse? Or vagina? Or your daughters vagina because someone maybe could perhaps put a bomb there?
How many bombers have been stopped? Oh yea, *none*. They only one that tried, got on the plane.
Even if the first option does exclude all terrorist based plane deaths. Boring old aircraft crashes are still far more likely to "kill" you. The Fact is that there really just aren't that many would be terrorists out there, and the few that are, are so stupid that all they can do is set their own scrotum on fire.

You guys have really really crappy trains.
The highways didn't build themselves for free. Rail subsidies are on par with road subsidies.
Yet considered completely acceptable when wiki tows the party line.
Scientific papers always give the exact range of confidence one can have on its conclusions.
No they don't. Read them yourself if you don't believe me.

Meat is grown in "factories". Thats what everyone is complaining about.
Try killing, gutting and skinning your own meat..
Done it, and do it. It really doesn't bother me at all. But then that was in NZ where the cows roam free and all that.
Modern breeds do quite well in the wild. At least in NZ.

So instead of Some guys found something, its I know a guy who think he found something.... Yea really credible.

I was always under the impression than in the "free" western world. Death threats were kind of illegal.

Historically it was a theory that got a lot of heat within the community as well. The bullet cluster data was the turning point for a lot of people.
