I think your idea of how fast subduction happens is a little off by some orders of magnitude.

However encasing it in something that won't leak (like glass) and dumping it in a very deep and dead part of the ocean is plausible and may be the best idea we have. There is no need to aim for the subduction fault, that makes no difference.

Still don't understand. According to your own post you would use electric for "most" of your driving.

Also a Hybrid is much more efficient with gas than a plain ICE. It already has the electric motor and some batteries, the PHEV is not more complicated.

??? Huh? You said work was 5 miles away and are worried that cold will make the PHEV range only 15 miles. 2x5 is 10, and 10 15. Also PHEVs keep working when they run out of electricity anyway...

Sure sounds like a PHEV would work very well for you.

France certainly does have lots of suburbs, with individual homes on lots and strong support for cars. Lots of them. I'm not really certain what you seem to think, but France is larger than downtown Paris.

Not really, I think you could test it with any well-known figure to see if there is any bias. I suspect it will accuse anybody of rape.

The first step to surviving somewhere else is locating a somewhere else that is better than trying to live on Earth after it has been hit by an asteroid. Unfortunately Mars fails this test. In fact we could get hit by an asteroid, have a nuclear war, have the worst possible global warming, and living would still be better on Earth than Mars.

There are right-wing candidates in Japan, and they have been winning lately.

ICE actually has a ways to go. Some historical US deportations (and remember the population was smaller then):

1930s (Great Depression): A period of mass "repatriations" saw an estimated 1.8 million people of Mexican descent—including many U.S. citizens—rounded up and deported or pressured to leave voluntarily. These were often informal raids and not all were official deportations.

1954: Operation Wetback resulted in the expulsion of hundreds of thousands of individuals, though historians estimate the number was closer to 300,000.

All you need is your third idea: H1-B's may change jobs at will.

Your other ones sound difficult or constitutionally questionable to enforce.

You do know that prison was closed because it was incredibly expensive to operate. No? Ignorance is bliss I guess.

You need things that are powered by BATTERIES if nuclear power (or any other type of electricity) is going to fix the climate problems.

You have posted anti-battery propaganda.

Therefore I conclude you actually don't care one bit about nuclear power and are just trying to be a nay-sayer. Good day.

I do believe "authentic" watermarks would help a lot. They will have to be locked to a lot of details about the file, you will not be able to color correct, resize, crop, or change the compression method. Probably allow cutting movies between frames however. Some one-way writing of the watermark is put into the camera, with the decoding key/result added to a database that does anything it can to insure only actual cameras are registered.

Watermarks people want to be remove can be made much harder by making the test for the watermark much more expensive, slow, and/or locked down so only authorized users can run it. Videos detected with the watermark are remembered so any similar-enough video also acts like it has the watermark, even if it has been manipulated enough to remove it. It also has to be very hard to create the watermark by anybody other than the registered creator so people can't use this to reject real videos.

Yes I think it is a requirement that the work have non-zero value. It's obvious that having a bunch of people standing around watching reduces crime, so that has non-zero value. I'm not sure what to do about the art to make sure its value is non-zero, possibly proof that people collect and keep it, or that organizations decide to display it.

Most laws like this require the average sound level to match, not the peak sound level. For precisely the reason you are talking about.

Because the improvement to society is not linear with the amount of money being given away.

Or did you think you had something insightful to say?
