But still, the question remains why not have it rubber stamped from the very beginning? Why do you need that apparent stop gap?

This is not true. Because whatever your personal motivations, the mathematical result of you not voting is that you are voting for whatever majority comes out in the end. And because only a minority voted against Donald Trump, a majority either voted directly for him or was ready to accept his election win.

I think she could reasonably assume that she wouldn't be served liquid hot enough to literally melt her.

Have you ever heard a single person, including plumbing professionals, call them "copper-phosphorus pipes"?

No. Because that's not how the English language works. You're the one who is too lazy and ignorant to figure out how people actually communicate in society.

Hint: The systematization your mind wants to apply to everything is not absolute. You need to figure out when to relax the formal logic rules when they start to result in absurd outcomes.

I don't know if it's still strictly true, but they used to say that all of the antimatter that has ever been produced by humans has had enough combined energy to warm up a cup of coffee.

You win this year's Nobel Prize for pedantry.

So according to you, I can't call the water pipes in my house "copper", since 0.05% phosphorus was added to the material to accomodate brazing.

If by 'burned a little' you mean 'her labia literally melted and fused shut,' you're correct.

From the center of the mass.

That is exactly what it meant. Regulation (from Latin rex = king) means: per the King's law. Or as Wiktionary has it: Borrowed from Latin regulatus, perfect passive participle of regul (“to direct, rule, regulate”) (see -ate (verb-forming suffix)), from regula (“rule”), from reg (“to keep straight, direct, govern, rule”).

Why does this change make sense? Because you can't plant a flag and wave your dick if you're up there in zero G orbiting a planetoid.

You have to be standing on the surface, and that is what China is on track to do in a few years.

You can do the calculations yourself. To break apart, a rotating object has to reach its escape velocity at its outer perimeter. Otherwise, the gravity would pull back anything that was trying to break apart. A black hole by definition has all its mass within its event horizon, and the event horizon is defined as the surfaces where the escape velocity equals the speed of light. That means that a black hole would have to rotate so fast that its equator surpasses the speed of light to break apart.

But in the case of the UK, it's a simple logging device. It does not hamper the operation of the car it is connected to. If it fails, the insurance company has no data. But the driver can still start the car.

This would actually be an improvement, as now, a car is occupied by two people instead of one, reducing overall traffic.

Nebulously talking about known problems without naming them just shows you don't know the problems or won't enumerate them in fear of sounding ridiculous.

If I have my own source of electricity not relying on the grid, then that is my decision. If it makes business sense, why should I forego it? If it satisfies me as a hobby project, why should I abandon it? If the utility wants to pay me for my leftover electricity, why not sell it to the utility? This is none of your concern.

And the alleged problems for bird life are about the same than each single tree on the landscape. Yes, birds sometimes hit trees, because either they have misjudged their trajectory from the start (birds can be clumsy too), or because a sudden gust of wind blew them away. I sometimes find birds knocked unconsciously on our terrace, because they flew against the wall. Shit happens. To make this a problem of wind turbines is just arbitrarily and selectively projecting blame.

Even in a minimal setup right now, you need three: ignition/fuel injection management, battery management and managing the drive train between internal combustion engine and electric motor.
