It depends on the final orbit. For most orbits you are 100% correct, and I would also add that the ideal position is as close to the equator as possible. For some orbits (for example around the poles) the UK is actually a good place. Though

You aren't assigned one, its just a thing people pick up on. Everywhere has it to some degree, for example "White trash" in the US compared to "Frat boys".

The onus should not be on a person changing an important part of themselves because of some classist people. To many people their accent is an important part of who they are, part of their identity and one that can't simply be switched

I think it is fair for a government to promote such a key industry to diversify where it is based. Currently a crazy percentage of chips are made in one geographical location. A huge amount of the modern economy is reliant on having cheap a

What is Facebook if not the people leading it? These people are high up in the organisation, and according to OP other people at other levels are also doing this on purpose. Perhaps personifying a huge company isn't the right way to go

To be clear, you are not suggesting that Cyanobacteria originated from extraterrestrial origins. But when it evolved on earth, it then wiped out all non-Cyanobacteria?

Why are you driving downtown to supermarket? Perhaps your city needs to be planned in a more efficient and livable manner.

Where in the world do people drive long distances in a car, but don't have electricity? And do many people actually live there? For example the desert might not have power lines, but it doesn't have many people either.

700 real range miles? Why are you holding electric cars to a higher standard than most petrol cars? The average car driven realistically (cities, towns, rural roads, and motorways) gets about 300-500 miles from a full tank. Why do electric

Yes you're quite right. I don't think it takes away from my point, that some people have far outsized rewards for the risks they take.

I think a lot of this depends on where you are standing. In the West, 1900-1990 was a huge difference in life and how it was lived, and less so between 1990 and today. In many other places of the world 1900-1990 had much less change in day

Heat the space immediately around you. Don't bother with central heating. Get a small electric blanket that you can have on your lap. If you are feeling more adventurous I got through a cold winter where the heating broke when I was a

Yes, though this is probably due to a unique situation rather than anything else.

For me, no. But judging by the numbers in the opiate crisis it is for a lot of people.

Is this yearly or per visit? I think yearly this wouldn't be a terrible figure. One issue, especially in the US is what counts as a city. For example, the SF bay areas has about 100 cities/municipal areas.

I lived in KL for a little bit. Many casual conversations turned to how much better things were when the British (which I am) were in charge. Not something I was really expecting!

You can't always grow corn on fields not covered by solar panels as well. Just because they stop one thing, they don't stop everything. You can graze sheep and poultry, you can transport water, people, vehicles, you can park your

I would agree, but my city is only 600k, and I want a car free centre here as well. Getting things like a CAZ(Clean air zone), congestion charge, low speed zones, and pedestrianised areas should have full pedestrianisation as an end goal.

It's a mix of tragedy of the commons and needing to be the same size or bigger than everyone else. The negatives of big cars are not paid for, in large part, by the people buying the car. A bigger car needs more space, making towns and
