Some people are still racist

… “Multi-modal reflection sorting” should confuse you, on account of the fact it is nonsense.

Yeah I know y’all read LOTR, yet none of you are anarcho-monarchists.

No, but if you go by reading age, I can pretend pretty easily. Much more ethical source for my kicks than actual child predation.

form drag is proportional to:

• The denisty of the medium.
• The velocity of the moving body (squared).

Interstellar space might be very undense, peaking at about 10^-15 kg/m^3…

However the enterprise E is very fast, with warp 9.9 being approx 20,000 c or 6 * 10^13 m/s, and that matters twice as much

This puts the overall cosmodymanic forces at Cd * 3.6 * 10^12 N/m^2 or approximately the same as experienced by a Sandworm going mach 30.

So sure why not, Einstein and Newton are dead so can’t complain, and I’m pretty sure I could beat up Bill Nye.

(more than half, strictly speaking, I was 16 during the referrendum. If you add up all the zoomers like me that have entered the voting pool since 2016 (and assume they would vote at the rates & ratios 18 year olds did) it’d overturn the 52% majority of the leave vote)

On the one hand, you are absolutely correct, people are idiots

On the other hand, your arguments against polls are equally valid arguments against any form representative democracy. Politicans, policies and programs are just like polls. People will often vote purely based on surface apperances. See: every law called “the fluffy familes act” or two-thirds of US elections going to the taller cannidate.

There’s a reason it’s called ‘the least bad form of government’

What exactly do you feel the British have done which harms the rest of the EU?

Who’s speaking who’s langauge here?

Depends on church, I recently visited the babtism of a Lesbian couples’ child featuring readings by a trans lay-minister. This was CoE, rather than any ‘rainbow church’.

It’s true that almost every mainline Church denies the right of gays and poly’s to marry as they would wish. Beyond that single sacrement however there’s no need for exclusion. Many congregations are still full of assholes, absolutely, but you’d be surprised how often the views of the Church body diverge from talking heads like Calvin Robinson.

Trans-rights are an odd-space. There isn’t actually anything in the bible explicitly denying trans ontology (at least for binary trans people), so again it’s a matter of specific bigotry rather than institutional bigotry.

Yes, exactly.** Reading the article disproves the headline. **

When I hear ‘not eating three meals a day’ I do not think ‘has skipped one meal in the last two years.’ (which is how the headline get’s it’s 38% statistic.)

It’s not that deprivation does not exist in the EU, it’s that the scale of that deprivation is of an entirely different order than implied by the headline.

Exactly.

See my original comment: “I do agree PR is better than FPTP”.

It’s good because it’s democratic, not because it particularly favours or dis-favours fascism.

I mean, I do agree PR is better than FPTP, just for different reasons. Brexit is bad sure, but I’m not sure I’d want UKIP to have >12% of seats in parliament either.

I mean, at that point you would just call it a hydro power plant. Pretty much all hydropower doubles as storage due it’s flexibility, but typically don’t bother pumping water back up as it’s a waste of energy (as opposed to waiting for the river to do it’s work)

It does effect some people (I.e. People with variable rate mortgages)

But yeah, overall sanctions are completely insufficient. Partly because they are incomplete, partly because Russia is a massive country able to supply almost all of her own necessities.

Ok, but there’s a reason the article leads with the 15% interest rate (Germany is at 4.5%)

Also would like to see heat generation (I.e. gas boilers) included

You get that a “carbon fibre tree” is literally just a tree right?

(also, wind turbines tend to be made out of much cheaper glass fibre. Admittedly this does not grow on trees, but unless you’re willing to ban windows and home insulation too it doesn’t make that much sense to complain about it.)

No, but still fossil free (which is how the original post described it).
