Not addressed: greater curb weight for the same size chassis means more momentum in crashes which means greater danger for occupants of other cars, pedestrians, cyclists, etc. Also it means greater wear and tear on tires and pavement, which

It's likely that sometimes it goes poorly in bigger sample sizes. Maybe the viruses have a chance of causing a cytokine storm which can kill the patient.

I was really looking forward to the expansion that came out on Monday. I chose not to play the main game anymore for the last several months. But then life threw some curve balls and I can't bring myself to buy it, knowing it would pul

At a global industrial scale, we're pulling lots of carbon out of the ground for energy and its ending up as carbon dioxide in the atmosphere with big consequences. We should also consider the implications of pulling hydrogen out of th

Would a heterotrophic adult plant have all the same micro-nutrients that a photoautotrophic adult plant has? I can imagine while one might grow lots of cellulose, maybe there are chemicals that just end up never being made by the plant cell

Even if the hardware quickly becomes outdated, I'm not sure it'll become worthless so quickly. And there's also the infrastructure of the data center and new electricity generation to power them. Another thing that might surv

Lots of people care. But 1 person caring usually doesn't do much. That person might be able to make some choices that reduce their impact on the planet, but the effect is miniscule and the effort they have to put in might be immense. A

I'd say the bigger issue was the speculative trading. Why would you use it to buy things that will depreciate in value if you think the currency itself will go up in value? Likewise, why would you buy currency if tomorrow its value can

Lower nutrient density isn't an issue when there's plenty of food to eat. There weren't 8 billion people to feed 3 million years ago, and back then they lived right alongside their food.

Higher atmospheric CO2 is actually causing this all around the world. Faster, bigger plants with less nutrient density.

The thing is, the superior way to reheat something would usually be a lower power level. But not the standard "turn on - turn off" cycle that most microwaves do. Actual lower intensity microwaves. You need an inverter for that. Th

I've been dreaming of buying an inverter microwave(the inverter allows it to put out lower intensity microwaves to achieve lower power levels instead of just turning them on and off entirely like most microwave ovens), but for some rea

Kinda funny that you got the kingdoms backwards there. Cheese is cultured by bacteria, not mold(a fungus). Bread is leavened by yeast(a fungus) not bacteria.
