Itâ(TM)s not the Americans being the polluting people, itâ(TM)s the Chinese. The point is that America (and the rest of the west) canâ(TM)t directly affect emissions because itâ(TM)s china thatâ(TM)s making them. That means the only levers we have are taxing imports from China. Taxing everything based on how much CO2 was emitted making it makes a huge amount of sense, especially if those revenues are then channeled into green manufacturing, which would then be price competitive with the cheep Chinese imports. This would then boost US manufacturing, and power industries, acting as a huge economic boost.
The fact that it used to take 15,000 years, but now takes only a human lifespan is precisely the problem. These changes *are* coming fast, because theyâ(TM)re no longer part of the natural cycle. This is precisely the point of the hockey stick curve. Itâ(TM)s not the climate change that is the problem, itâ(TM)s the speed of climate change.
A big thumbs up to all the engineers reverse engineering whatâ(TM)s going wrong too. Thereâ(TM)s some really impressive sleuthing going into figuring out how to keep it alive even longer, 43 years after its mission was supposed to end.
But these are conservatives weâ(TM)re talking about. If they can push it out of the public sector, they will; whether it represents better taxpayer value or not.
Last I checked, clouds were not typically intentionally created. Theyâ(TM)ve banned cloud seeding, but not clouds. Theyâ(TM)ve also banned breathing; aeroplanes; cars; pretty much all industry;â¦
Itâ(TM)s possible to âoegasifyâ methanol and then reduce it to methane and water, both of which are extremely useful on space ships, so yeh, indeed it could be.
Odd, thereâ(TM)s lots of examples of men raising children either on their own, or in male/male couples. Society isnâ(TM)t collapsing, those children arenâ(TM)t turning out any more screwed up than the average. I call bullshit on your claim.
You realise that this is a "problem" naturally too, right? Most people don't fall neatly into XX and XY chromosomes. Even if they did, the presence of a Y chromosome is not the only thing that determines even physical gender, let alone how someone thinks about themselves. Plenty of people that you would define as women have higher than average testosterone production, higher than average muscle builds, etc. All these supposed injuries that you theorise would be occuring are *already* occuring because there are already people competing with more testosterone than the average woman.
The simple fact is that gender is not as clearly defined as you'd like to think it is. Having a penis or a vagina does not determine your gender. Having XX or XY chromosomes does not either.
Why would people deciding that life is too hard be a problem? That's literally what humans have been doing for millennia - deciding that something made life hard, and then solving that problem. If someone has a problem, and a solution to that problem, that's called progress, not "time blindness". If some people are being margionalised, that absolutely is unfair. That's pretty much the exact definition of being unfair.
Finally, *what* system starts to break down? In what way does it break down? It's one way to simply say "if you let people have the gender that they'd prefer, the system will break down", and quite another to actually show what system breaks down, and why it would be a loss to have that system break down.
Ah yes, the left is the one trying to radicalise people, on an article about how the right are pushing the radical banning of speech.
Because it's populist bullshit to use to win an election.
No one said the evidence was the use of Bitcoin, only that she did use Bitcoin.
Thereâ(TM)s plenty of conditions out there that we have no solid explanation for. This particularly applies to brain conditions. Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Long COVID. Thereâ(TM)s plenty of evidence that they really do exist, and are not scams at all, but our understanding of them, and ability to find obvious distinguishing physical differences is near zero. Donâ(TM)t be so quick to dismiss people as seeking pay outs. I bet some of them are, but I also bet the vast majority have a serious, but hard to identify condition, and are in genuine need of societyâ(TM)s support.
Yeh, I can absolutely believe that one or more of the RCS thrusters had a stuck valve, and that the hot ullage gas then leaked through that, both increasing the spin rate, and making it impossible to either un-spin, and impossible to pressurise the tanks for engine relight.
