certainly not saying you’re wrong, but the base load problem is still a problem afaik… storage solves some of it, but i think storage isn’t a full solution - we’d still need some other 24/7 generation capacity

afaik (though i have pretty limited knowledge here) if you have nuclear power you can make nuclear weapons

i like how you call a dictionary definition simply “my” definition… if you’d like to learn more about the english language, i suggest you use a freely available dictionary website

it sounds like you don’t understand protest

normal /nôr′məl/

adjective

1. Conforming with, adhering to, or constituting a norm, standard, pattern, level, or type; typical. “normal room temperature; one’s normal weight; normal diplomatic relations.”
2. Functioning or occurring in a natural way; lacking observable abnormalities or deficiencies. Relating to or designating the normality of a solution.

definition 3 is not relevant, but i assume you’d agree that none of those definitions that were listed have specific statistical meanings

normal is not a useful statistical term: it does not mean average in any way - mean, median, mode, etc… normal is, in a social context, more likely to be interpreted to mean “Functioning or occurring in a natural way; lacking observable abnormalities or deficiencies”, so i think you’d have to admit being described as “not normal” would piss some people off

please adjust your language

it serves the purpose to mock the request and make people think about the absurdity

in the same way that a request for a “white history month” should also be mocked - it’s just straight up trivialising the whole concept

absolutely agree

it is possible i’d guess to believe that if ukraine gives up the occupied territory then russia will simply stop, and i’d guess their possition then is simply to stop further loss of life - and that trump will “stop the war” by forcing ukraine to do that

shit take imo, but not totally out of the blue

it’s possible that if they rushed it through now, it’d give trump ammo for leaving nato entirely

nuclear is neither about having, nor using the weapons … it’s about the fear of future use of weapons

silence isn’t helpful in that endeavour

one use or not, drones experience vibration which can cause a cable to come loose and loss of the aircraft. cable management helps ensure that all the cables keep all the cables seated, among other things

hard to get no but not easy either

economics is far from a simple competition… things like game theory lead to monopolies being bad for everyone, and that’s what china wants in a lot of cases. the chinese government subsidises some of its industries dramatically so they can take over a global market and then slowly backs off the subsidies when they’ve killed their competition

it’s similar to microsoft’s embrace, extend, extinguish strategy

in star trek, humans invent warp drive in a ship based on an old missile after ww3

peter thiel?

absolutely correct… in australia, you respect the wildlife because it often has the ability to protect itself… its not like people die here every day from it

well i’m extrapolating here but since a foot is based on some random foot i can only assume we can do similar for other things. i’ve found a thermometer with fahrenheit on it and it seems it’s roughly 1mm to 1 degree, so that’s 113,000,000 degrees fahrenheit!

Labour (with a u since it’s a proper noun from the UK) is named after trade unions; they’re the progressive party

ukraine abstained because the US has them over a barrel

does ARM still have better battery life when all of the machine code has to be translated from x86

afaik macos/rosetta is more efficient than native windows/x86, but that could be down to OS integration, or any number of confounding factors… i’d suggest though that x86 windows applications sometimes run better and more efficiently on alternative platforms, even with the translation layers - whether that’s down to the instruction set or a combination of factors
