I read a while back a comment that put it really aptly: modern day agriculture is hydroponics with the exhausted ground being the substrate.

Ideally for the double whammy of also buying the carbon rights for the reforestation that will surely ensue a decade or two later.

The other day I was scrolling through google earth and visited the hottest place on earth “Furnace Creek” in Death Valley. And to my surprise there is a golf course right next to it.

I havent ran in that issue actually, perhaps as I am using the site a bit different. The way I navigate it is by filtering on a country (or not) first, and than ordering by the properties (girth / height) and than selecting the specifi

For anyone interested in more trees, or specific to their environment. This website hosts quite a large overview of interesting specimen and data points: http://monumentaltrees.com

I can imagine that this kind of research is done once 15 years ago, as I remember that too, but perhaps with the recent advance of technology might actually not be true anymore. I don’t have sources but in general some types of things get r

I belief the Netherlands uses a high powered laser much like a rust removal laser in some parts. But it’s not widely rolled out. On the co2 argument. The release of the co2 itself is one thing. But keeping it cryogenic and applying it isn’

I'm guessing it has to do with the EU, but it seems far more sensical if it went straight through and allow others to give/receive as well.

Not really an argument against but perhaps something to consider: more and more people seem to be listening to old music instead of the latest and greatest [1], the why is difficult but it might indicate that it becomes harder and harder to

They'll find a way, of that you can be sure. I think restricting the term is the only way possible to limit corruption in that regard.

In general one falling for a scam doesn’t make one an idiot. Though on the other hand it might also be a slick Nigerian prince kinda of filter to push even more stuff onto whoever falls for this genius trick.

As if that has ever been the case. Cruise ships would be prohibitively expensive, and flying would be too. Almost all products would be twice or thrice the price, if not more, except for a lot of manually laboured locally crafted stuff. Som

I believe they were extra ordinary hard to cancel, like the NYTimes, for and the best tip if you ever consider cancelling was to just cease payments through PayPal or your creditcard. This saves you the lovely trip to a sales rep and whatno

I think the one you’re responding to seems to be in favour of a more nuanced view, rather where I read your argument as absolutes (everyone everywhere). So to some extend you both seem in agreement though the difference is the nuance.

I think the sheer size would make it interesting. The heat energy potential of acres full of graphite is enormous and presumably much cheaper to construct than an energy equivalent battery. Now I wonder how it holds up to other methods of s

I have never seen a website with so many pop-ups. I counted 6 while visiting this website on Safari. It really makes me question my choices on why I'm even browsing the internet not through Firefox, but rather than Safari. I do it with

Quite interesting if that really becomes a thing. I mean imagine what would happen if it'd evolve to eat away paint and all the ships, bridges, etcetere start to eat into the paint and corrode. I do wonder what the excrement would be o

Well you can argue both sides than. I think the FDA is going overboard with their requirement to wash the poultry in chlorine. As an add-on there's this oddity that the EU eggs cannot be sold in the US, due to the ban on washing them,

His (de Hond) reputation is abhorrent as he did a complete made-up witch hunt for his personal prime suspect in the Deventer moordzaak, of which he was way off and never really apologized to damages he caused to the victim that he created.

Dorsey holds 2.25% of the stock as per one authoritive dutch newspaper NRC. So 0.25% of the stock is held by other insiders, interestingly enough. De voormalige eigenaar en mede-oprichter Jack Dorsey bezit 2,25 procent van de aandelen. [1]

I think it’s the tragedy of public traded companies that eventually there’ll be such an overwhelming demand from the shareholders -given that they often hold a majority combined to just the directors- to monetise and provide dividend and&#x

Not sure if that is enough given that most product returns are destroyed - from iPads to brand new clothes. So than that rule is already out I think? Though an extension that that is forbidden in some sense should be fair. Or a rule that fo

That is, how absurd is may sound, entirely correct. I belief on a yearly basis we subsidise about 18B on just big energy consumers. Here is the source at the bottom table: https://www.belastingdienst.nl/wps/wcm/con

Are you perhaps confusing hectares with the wattage as I read the following on Reuters: The facility, which will use 1.38GWh of electricity and cover 166 hectares (410 acres) of farmland, is expected to run on green energy and provide the l

Well it’s one man shoving this huge decision onto a local group that lacks the credentials and oversight to judge such a big effect. They’re in charge of deciding if this thing is allowe to be build there yes or no. It makes sense that the
