"If you're root, you are assumed to know what you're doing"

Clearly you've never used MacOS where even root is a 2nd class user in some instances. All for security reasons don't you know - System Integrity Protection or whatever they've called it this month.

I hope you're right.

... by the greatest leap in a year ever recorded last year - 3ppm.

I get the feeling that positive feedback mechanisms are starting to kick in and soon anything we do re human emissions will become irrelevant.

At least with current building materials and technology.

This is what happens when someone with oceans of money but little clue about technical reality watches too many sci-fi films.

If you're that bothered buy a fucking cd or vinyl so the artists get a bigger percentage. It's just music, not life and death.

"Everything at South Pole Station (except for water)"

And air. Even both of these would have to be brought in or somehow manufactured on other planets.

Is if they got too ill or died before they completed the mission or even before they arrived. Also eventually there'll be one person left on their own with no one to care for them. Would a cyanide pill be provided?

Modern freighters can go through a force 12. Good luck doing that in a sailing ship from any era.

Sails and storms dont mix. Innumerable sailing ships had their sails ripped, masts snapped or went to the bottom because of it. Hardly surprising that when a technology that didnt involve having a couple of 50-100 foot high poles with large fabric attached to them that could work in all weathers came along it quickly took over. I mean FFS, this ship had only just left harbour and one of its modern rigid sails got damaged!

Have you seen the shitfest that is their current browser. Ergonomics went out the window years ago so they have form in shooting themselves - and their users, what's left of them -in the foot.

More likely the shrapnel went backwards into the tail engine.

Apparently you cant even understand simple english either. Go play with your lego sonny.

Apparently you're too stupid to realise that most countries have laws that allow governments to restrict what companies do in the national interest without nationalising them. eg selling to certain regimes. But then you posted A/C so no one will know quite what a moron you are.

You might want to come out of your basement sometime. Trump has not been getting his own way with the EU (I presume you've heard of the EU?).

Who's this "you"? I'm not american, HTH, plus Nexperia was sold to the chinese in 2018. Also since when did Trump decide the policies of the Netherlands government?
