Given I think that Wind Power is almost-always a HUGE waste of money, I give you credit for your far-beyond-appropriate Don Quixote reference. /bow

A.K.A. Castrum Fluminis "Fun" fact: you can do Passage of Arms prior to the "ghosts" phase for the AE for that, and it'll be back up JUST as the post-ghosts AE hits, so you can use it then too. There were enough attempts to learn this fact. That fight has always been a shitshow for me. Both...

ONLY the WaPo article says she was there, whereas the other articles all say that she was NOT in the Truck. Everything but WaPo is saying the Dad, and the kids, not the Mom. Also in that link: "Officers say as he tried to get away he put the truck in reverse and hit one officer." So to those...

Grue, if you mean this: A few problems here: 1. They don't break out Wind, Solar, and Bioenergy from each other. i.e. if you burn wood to boil water, to turn a turbine, it's the same as wind in this calculation. 2. The link I provided above said "The province wasted a total of 7.6...

Glad to get some sources, but none of them say shit about the incident. So we have the mother of the kids' account, who wasn't there, from a site that's "not exactly" unbiased here? I agree, he didn't bring his kids on a robbery. Good. Beyond that, not enough information. I feel bad for the...

Grue, that's the problem. Example: https://blog.ospe.on.ca/featured/ontario-wasted-more-than-1-billion-worth-of-clean-energy-in-2016-enough-to-power-760000-homes/ So your link doesn't say about "the plated capacity is X, it actually generated Y amount" of energy. If you want a world-wide...

Whomever wrote that section has NO bias whatsoever, given the second sentence. Also, given that "subsidies" is often code for "They're not paying their "true" amount" (see Softwood Lumber dispute between Canada and the USA) I have never seen a good argument (including those links, which were...

Besides all the personal attacks at me (and others) as well, can you please link to a less-biased site than originally with a story of how the takedown went please? That would be helpful.

Charge the Father with Child Endangerment: https://abcnews.go.com/US/children-shot-oklahoma-police-open-fire-alleged-robbery/story?id=62669331 He's a fucking robbery suspect fleeing the police who had his kids in the car. And try for something slightly less biased than "ebony.com". Why did...

That the reduction of CO2 is an impediment to all of that is the downside. Cheap abundant energy enables being able to do those other things. It's also anti-poverty, as carbon taxes are virtually ALWAYS regressive in nature as they increase the price of everything to a great degree. n...

IMO being completely unoriginal isn't necessarily a bad thing, as long as it's done well. No new stories, etc. And arguably Cameron has a great track record doing exactly that. And on that note, I find that there's something to be said for too original if you're going into every movie and...

Wait, that's not a joke post, like that fake Pixar timeline from a few years back? Yikes.

Ya about that: https://wattsupwiththat.com/2011/01/08/putting-the-brakes-on-acceleration/ (harder to find clean graphs that are newer, but 2011 is still fine) Basically: it isn't accelerating. It hasn't since records have been kept. Somewhere between 1-2mm per YEAR, and it's been a...

This rings a bell with me with something my Dad had done a few years back, so I'll give you a "I think so, maybe?" endorsement, but can't help more than that. Like many others, I've never had a temporary filling, and am back within a week (or two at most) if they find something.

I assume you mean some kind of move greater than a month? Or what are you calling here? Not meaning to be accusatory, just wondering, as moving from a Friday to a Wednesday is probably not what you mean.

How are a few flying samples more representative than what the companies say they're actually burning through things like fuel, which they have to buy and thus they know exactly how much they've bought, and therefore burned. And the taxes on such (which the government will know), and such...

Spent an hour in The Burn last night with guildmates. They don't know how to dance very well. So by the time the post-mist phase came, the healer couldn't keep up, and was dying themselves frequently. IMO Mist Dragon is hardest boss this expansion in the dungeons. Just kept throwing Rime...

@ScytheRexx I started a side-thing about the GoG being all "empowered" after @Ravenpoe said they weren't. Making this all about Sam and accusing us of trying to "get on Sam's case" is beside the entire argument about Quill. What the hell does Sam have to do with this side conversation at all...

You ever have that co-worker who responds to every message in an email thread before reading the rest of the thread? Where it's already answered and taken care of? And then they also reply to other emails/messages without reading other emails yet which also answer said topics? Read ALL your...

This is what pisses me off the most about Civ. One time in Civ 3, I had a whole continent to myself, and wasn't participating at all with the others. I had to spend increasing amounts of money just so that others wouldn't go to war with me. For... nothing? I basically said "ya go nuts" and...
