I don't know much about fish or live near the Pacific, but neither of the links in my comment (sibling to yours) suggest sockeye is a bad choice. In fact NE Pacific 'early summer' sockeye is a recommended choice, and many BC

I think the distinction is that many people are familiar with green energy being subsidised and surprised that oil & gas (often large, established, wealthy, and profitable companies) are too (at least in terms of tax breaks).

That last point about materials is interesting. Commercial extraction of aluminium was only discovered in the late 1880s and Duralumin (an early alloy) wouldn't be invented until 1909. Thanks to these discoveries and the Great War the

I know nothing about this but just did a little reading. It seems some direct nuclear to electricity methods are 90% efficient. https://www.quora.com/Is-it-possible-to-convert-nuclear-ener... PIDEC sounds like it works well

It is an interesting question. The best option is almost certainly to not use a car (walk, cycle, or bus instead). The emissions are much lower[1] (absolute and per-distance) and you might get some health benefits. If a car is needed it dep

The keyboard itself could encrypt the keystrokes before sending them to the OS? That could work. Moves the threat to attacking the keyboard firmware.

Thanks, I wasn't familiar with the jargon or the electronics. The original post said "might" but it seems that's exactly what cell sites use (GPSDOs).

AFAIK this isn't how it works; the GPS provides a reference so the skew of the crystal can be measured as it drifts.

That's not a fair comparison, unless the restaurant also brews its own beer. A better drinks comparison would be choosing from the menu between a 'Jose Cuervo Authentic Margarita' and a margarita mixed fresh by the bartender.

The parent comment said there would be a niche for you, not (necessarily) that it would be lucrative. You might be more valued there (in the "we're lucky we found this guy" way if not the cash way).
