The point is you could do it with renewables without burning fossil fuels. There would be losses in the step between renewables and methane sure, but it doesn't require "free energy".

That doesn't matter if you made the methane by extracting CO2 from the atmosphere. Then you are just putting the CO2 back from where you got it. The bad part with burning fossil fuels is that you are putting carbon in the form of CO2 i

Try Rooibos as an alternative to black tea. It tastes closer to black tea than mint and it's got no caffeine.

All vaccines boost the immune system. It seems like a lot of people misunderstand how vaccines work (not saying you do). Vaccines don't fight of infections for you, they train the immune system to correctly identify pathogens so the im

We have already done that [1]. The first permanent base on Antarctica was built over a hundred years ago in 1903. What we should do is build a permanent moon base. It's closer to earth so if something goes wrong it's only a three

I've also heard that the control, those who don't drink, are often not drinking because they used to be alcoholics thus scewing the longevity stats for non-drinkers.

That's not paying for roads, that's paying for fuel. You would be paying those fuel taxes even if you were only driving on your own private roads.

aha, but this is a thread about DOS games, which is why I got confused.

Heores of Might and Magic 3 was a windows release, the last game in the series playable on DOS was HoMM2.

The RPI compute modules already use eMMC flash. RPi Compute Module 1 was released in 2014 and uses eMMc flash.

Sounds like you're not the target audience for a RPi. They are meant to be cheap computers for "the promotion of teaching basic computer science in schools and in developing countries"[0]. Adding NVMe support would increase t

This ignores time dilation for the traveler. After 70 days 18 hours and 10 minutes at 5g you reach 0.9999c, time dilation at that speed is over 70x. Which means what looks like 30 years for us at earth only takes 30years/70 = ~ 5 month

I can tell you that it's not about knowing my colors, the colors of the apples you linked look as different as white vs black to me. And they would look just as distinct even if I didn't know my colors.

That's cool to hear, and motivational. I'd like to learn how to play the guitar and how to draw. Getting started is challenging though, especially with the distractions from phones.

I quickly looked up TinyGo and it seems to have a larger scope than TamaGo. For example it supports several Atmel microcontrollers that are not ARM based. TamaGos scope is smaller as they only support ARM. I'm sure there are more diffe

So back to your original comment > They didn't survive, so not sure what that says. It says nothing because we cannot yet conclude that Homo Sapiens will survive for longer. > Still, 61 years is within a lifetime. 10k years requi

by ejolto 6y ago
That's my original point. You can't say whether Neandethals are better or worse at surviving until 10-400k years in the future. Also, I don't agree that a conjecture has to be experimentally proven during your personal lifeti

You don't need to prove the the timespan left for a species in order to prove that the species is better at surviving, assuming better at surviving means surviving for more years. In regards to Homo Sapiens and Neanderthals you just ha

If we get wiped out in a nuclear war or because of global warming in the next 10k years, Homo Sapiens would have been around for less time than Neanderthals. Thus Neanderthals would have been better at surviving than us. According to wikipe

That's only true for black holes created from the collapse of stars. Primordial black holes would have been created in the early universe and be much much smaller.
