The sad thing is seeing people, even here in this thread, arguing in favor of reducing the middle class down to third world levels.
Well of course they will argue that! Everyone assumes that they will be personally spared when "necessary" changes are made. It's human nature. It's both sad and funny
...all that land in Alaska, Canada and Siberia will be habitable when it warms so it looks like we will have room for the coastal folks!
What makes you think that we will take them in? You can keep them. Don't expect that someone else will pay to clean up your mess
I've seen all kinds of cars and tractors start in temperatures getting near or below -40 degrees. Some times that meant the transmission got busted.
As a teenager in northern Canada, I learned that you need to warm up the transmission as well as the engine in extreme cold. A friend of my dad's forgot this lesson and and had to replace his car's automatic transmission.
In extreme cold, you can protect your transmission by putting it in neutral for a few minutes. This gets the transmission oil moving (and warming) without engaging more delicate mechanical parts. Do not leave an automatic transmission in "Park".
BTW - While several minutes of idling in neutral during EXTREME cold conditions are required to warm the transmission, 90 seconds of idling is all your engine needs. Any extra idling time is for only for the driver's comfort (i.e. warms up the cars interior )
For example, if you need to build a web server, you might pick OpenBSD because of its "secure-by-default" mantra. But what does that really buy you? You still need to run web server software, which is going to be the vector for any attack.
A security audited version of Apache, inside a chroot jail, is part of the standard install.
Please check your facts before posting. You'll avoid sounding like a trolling fanboi.
