Most of the carbon used in steelmaking is consumed reducing the iron oxides to iron in the smelting process. That job can be done with hydrogen, if you have excess energy to electrolyse it from water.

Then you can use a small amount of carbon as an alloying agent - likely from coal but it could be from CO2 of we were working to capture it at the time.

This all doesn't make sense now, of course. Iron smelting is one place that coal use remains logical.

One specie of mosquito means nothing - there are just so many other ones.

That said, this does not even do that. Mosquitoes with wolbachia still survive and breed - but they don't live as long, and when the mosquito infected the dengue virus can't survive in the mozzie, so it doesn't get infected and so it can't spread the disease.

It is done pretty much everywhere - I'm a little surprised it isn't standard procedure in the US too.

I'm sure they are adding a bunch of other stuff, but at it's heart, it's just chromium.

Really wish we had a more healthy market for browser engines.

... Or so simple there are obviously no problems. It seems we have lost the ability to do the latter.

I mean, a computers Bios should be an exceedingly simple thing, with only enough smarts to initialise storage, copy bytes into ram, check that those bytes are properly signed and then pass execution to them. Instead it is a full environment that never gets patched. This means that no one can build a secure system, because it's built on series cheese.

Do you think we can get someone to make a rom chip containing a private key, securely?

Alt-key, key works in Libreoffice, and any app with a menu.

The letters you use are underlined whenever you hold down the alt key, and the shortcuts are there in the menu too, on the right hand side.

The only difference is that Word's ribbons overlay the key's letter over the button, and libreoffice (and any other menu-driven program) underlines them. Programs used to always display the underlining, which made things more discoverable, but I guess it did look slightly messy.

Yes, Base doesn't get a lot of love. The main audience for Libreoffice, and certainly its developers, would prefer to implement a database directly on their choice of SQL server and use whatever scripting languages and graphics libraries they are familiar with for an interface, instead of learning things like Access or Base.

The 'best of both worlds' approach, which is the standard interface, is to have a context sensitive icon bar, and the menu structure with everything. And everything is available with alt-*n* *y* keystrikes.

The "extreme hunger and lethargy" I mentioned are side effects of dieting. My comment was that GLP-1 drugs ARE treating the underlying cause of obesity - that underlying cause is hunger, which GP-1 treats.

In as much as it can. An out of control appetite is the underlying cause. Them forcing themselves into what their body considers a starvation diet is only treating a surface symptom, and it is not effective, causing debilitating side effects like extreme hunger and lethargy.

The inspection didn't require them to remove the part to look for cracks - they were to look at the bearing in place and verify that the two halves hadn't separated, by confirming that the outer edge of the bearing was still in line with the housing.

The explanation seems to be that the failing of this bearing doesn't mean that the engine will fall off, because all the parts are retained, with the inner race inside the circular lugs. But it will make space, which means the mount will rattle, and if that is combined with existing, unobserved cracking in the lugs, could have lead to rapid progression of those cracks and a failure before the next inspection occured.

Not really. Storms don't get much more intense, that just get more common and last longer. Build your turbine to withstand today's hurricanes, and you'll just have more wind to generate power from.

Windows registration is notoriously buggy, and regular just refuses to work. This script does a bunch of stuff to force registration.

I believe it works even if you don't have a key. Currently, the biggest use will be getting access to extended updates on Windows 10.

If the plane was going to land on a runway with problems, it would have been making announcements on the radio for many minutes, so there would be lots of opportunities to avoid disaster.
