yes from that perspective its fine. But from the change in culture aspect it is awful

2019-02-11 14:47:22 UTC  

Package more important than contents to some, and if they have the purchase power, rock on

2019-02-11 14:47:35 UTC  

gold shoes for crap sake.

2019-02-11 14:47:38 UTC  

^^ But agreed.. is sad

2019-02-11 14:48:08 UTC  

not even wearable shoes. Just ugly, disgusting looking gold shoes

2019-02-11 14:48:26 UTC  

Can you hit someone with them?

2019-02-11 14:48:35 UTC  

I wouldnt want to lose any of the gold, so no rofl

2019-02-11 14:48:44 UTC  

Peacock nicely then?

2019-02-11 14:48:59 UTC  

I dont even know how they get gold into fabric lol

2019-02-11 14:49:39 UTC  

Chinese footbinding was a mating signal after all ... look at me, look at me, I’m so funky I don’t NEED to walk!

2019-02-11 14:49:58 UTC  

lol

2019-02-11 14:50:43 UTC  

I’m serious. Astonishing how much comes back to sexuality, if not actual reproductive sex

2019-02-11 14:50:59 UTC  

Ponder it

2019-02-11 15:00:38 UTC  

human sexuality is a very strange thing

2019-02-11 15:25:21 UTC  

Apparently so is the sexuality of toasters, high heels, train stations, and gelatinous goo, once we fixate and anthropomorphise them.
And toddlers, hamsters, and camels. Don’t forget those

AOC's Green New Deal may have her looking like a genius by the time she's ready to run.....

If his model could be applied to everything and be accurate, wouldn't we have achieved fusion utopia by now? We've figured out significantly more than 1% of the problem, no?

2019-02-12 00:55:25 UTC  

Lol how would we know what percentage of the problem is solved? His model only applies on information Technologies I believe. It's a characteristic of information technology that is

2019-02-12 00:56:14 UTC  

- on a side note u think rn the expectation is fusion to be solved between 2040-2050 but I haven't followed that as closely

2019-02-12 00:56:23 UTC  

While we are making progress, saying anything more then that is just wishful thinking.

2019-02-12 01:01:43 UTC  

@Shadows so wait then is Moore's law wishful thinking? It seems to be remarkably consistent/ predictive? Moore's law is smaller example of the general "law of accelerating returns". That apparently applies to all info tech

2019-02-12 01:17:14 UTC  

Do you think our renewable energies will double in scale and usage every 2 years?

2019-02-12 01:23:18 UTC  

No, but renewables are growing really fast.

2019-02-12 01:30:07 UTC  

Is anyone following this AIPAC / Ilhan Omar clusterfuck?

2019-02-12 01:34:30 UTC  

Because I guess suggesting that a literal pro-israel PAC is paying people to be pro-israel is somehow heresy? I can't make any sense of this

2019-02-12 01:35:57 UTC  

I'm seeing some dems tell her to apology for her anti-israel statements.

2019-02-12 02:03:48 UTC  

Ssshhh... can’t criticize our greatest ally. Now go support that unconstitutional anti-BDS bill.

2019-02-12 03:09:31 UTC  

Eh?
What are you talking about?

2019-02-12 03:32:04 UTC  

*Renewable energies has their problems:
Wind isn't reliable enough to be based on, Solar panels has really low efficiency (something like 10% for common commercial solar panels, the highest I know of is somewhere around 30%) and the sun isn't always shining (nights), Thermosolar isn't effective as well.
Hydroelectric is quite expensive to construct and isn't available everywhere.
The most promising renewable energy technology right now is Tidal Energy, but it's still in its infancy.

2019-02-12 03:46:36 UTC  

@Dostayer depending on what solar panels type you are looking at, the average efficiency is about 15-20% for monocrystalline solar or 11-13% for thin film. It’s accepted that it’s possible to get 80% renewables with current technology without doing anything unreasonable. However, that’s still only 80%. The activists ignore the limitations because they are ideologically driven to get to 100%. I’m not exactly sure how tidal will play a role in the future because it’s a bit challenging to do.

2019-02-12 10:48:23 UTC  

@Salacious Swanky Cat Tidal is the most reliable, and again, it's in its infancy and it seems very promising.

10 years ago I've seen a panel of 30% efficiency, AFAIK they are not commercial viable due to high costs (which limits their usage for very specific tasks), they've actually reached 40%.

Renewable energy right know has a problem of high costs anyhow, we won't come anything near to 80% in the next decade due to costs and the lack reliability.
I would love to see the source for the 80% figure, it sounds way too high for me.

2019-02-12 10:49:15 UTC  

I would also like to know what AIPAC did.

2019-02-12 11:55:06 UTC  

Literally nothing

2019-02-12 11:55:58 UTC  

It's a B tier lobby organization that gives money to people who are outspokenly pro Israel

2019-02-12 12:03:12 UTC  

Hi, I'm an Israeli, I can't say I don't like what they are doing.

2019-02-12 12:04:09 UTC  

Especially when you consider where the youth and the Federal administrators are being educated.

2019-02-12 12:05:27 UTC  

@Dostayer the 80% number comes from the us lab nrel.
