Massachusetts should now return all the taxes collected from selling gas. After all if selling gas is fraud, so is collecting taxes on it. :)

The problem here is not that Google started charging people for their services The problem here is not the question if Gmail is good or not. The problem is that they subsidized their Gmail and other services in order to get rid of small com

Next: no grades needed to get BS, MA, PhD. and no attendance necessary. After all some groups are at a disadvantage and they will not be able to attend the classes.. While we're at it - why don't we have The Degree Lottery (tm), o

Well, plain text doesn't require smart or sophisticated screen readers. Anything that can read text will work, that's why plain text emails are more accessible. Not every person that needs screen reader can afford some top of the

I on the other hand, love that my 4Runner has a built-in crappy navigation system. I don't like the fact that it's crappy but I love that it's there whether I have my phone with me or not. Yes, it's not often that I don

Funny thing about NET terms.. Now a lot of the large companies do billing only twice a month. So if you're unlucky your NET 30 will change to NET45 + 5 days for mailing, bank processing etc.. Somehow I always get unlucky and miss their

They used glyphosate based herbicide, but report only detection of glyphosate and AMPA, and not other ingredients that some people claim are the main problem with Roundup.

Don't fool yourself thinking that after few weeks or even months of dieting/fasting you've broken the addiction. That was my mistake the first time I began IF.. after 8 months I decided that eating normally for a few weeks wi

Just wild speculation but could this have anything to do with Galileo being down? I know that it was in Feb, but maybe it took that long to find out how they were "attacked"?

All of the satellites? What could possible cause all of them to fail at the same time? It's not hardware because they weren't all switched at the same time. Software?

And how do you know that the right moment will ever arrive? And when it arrives how would you know that it is the right time? If Poles waited until 1918, and gain their independence, but lost war of 1920 would you also claim that they simpl

"I would even argue, as a separate point, that he wasn't an occupier at all, much like Donald Trump is not an occupier of Native American lands." Alexanders policies against Poles were direct result of the January Uprising. P

Thanks for the recommendation, I will definitely add it to my list . So there is no misunderstanding - I agree with everything you said, however, the problem with facts when looking at history, are that we're really don't know al

History is complicated, I know. And I've never claimed that Alexander didn't abolish serfdom, or even that he was a bad ruler. All I'm trying to say is nobody should be surprised that his accomplishments are not part of the s

Tsar Alexander II was the ruler of the occupying nation, so forgive us for not considering him one of the best rulers in our history. Perhaps if Russia didn't partition Poland, Kosciuszko would have successfully abolished serfdom long

And you don't think there is no profit motive in the current "global warming industry"?
206.
by 6d6b73 7y ago
true, but maybe we're in the mess simply because we don't worry about long term effects of our actions.

So you're looking at the display and instantly you know what the value was last year, and how the seasonal variability affect whatever you see on the display? Whatever you're reading on your co2 sensor, thermometer, or any other s

I was talking about possibility of having multiple projects run by different countries/non-profits at the same time, without any coordination, and messing up the climate even more. Why is that so controversial?
209.
by 6d6b73 7y ago
Well, the problem with most of these off the shelf , indoor sensors, is that they are calibrated to current reading of about 400ppm, that's their base. To correctly measure CO2 you will need something that does not depend on that value

Like we've reacted when scientists told us about rising co2 levels 30 or 40 years ago?
