The past 7 years were are all the hottest on record

They're illegal because people ballooned up to hundreds of pounds all stored in the liver??? How'd I miss that??

Come on, they're unhealthy and not considered safe anymore but the stuff you said just isn't true.

That doesn't make any sense to me, and it's been awhile since my biofuel class but I don't think that's true.

The carbon in the combustion product comes from the biofuel, the biofuel comes from plants, the plants get the carbon from the air. Therfore, by definition, every gram of Co2 released by combusting a biofuel came originally from the atmosphere.

It has to be neutral, otherwise where is the magical extra carbon coming from?

He can't, that's an amendment so he'd need another amendment to get rid of it. Hed need to get 38 state lesiglatures on board and there's only 27 states with republican controlled legislatiures.

Russia's ammendment was passed via popular vote. If we passed amendments the same way I'd be concerned, but our current method makes it highly unlikely.

Ive been buying no added sugar cranberry juice (5 cal/serving so low sugar even including the natural sugars) I pour it into a massive dispenser and water it down, basically 6 parts water to 1 part juice with the intent being it make slightly fruit flavored water - it still taste like juice! I can't imagine drinking it straight, we as a society are addicted to sweetness.

That sounds like BS.

I mean think about it logically, if I only eat several kg of trans fats a day I'll die of starvation? That doesn't pass the sniff test.

"They basically sit in your liver until you die" - so if I eat 1lb of trans fats a week at the end of a year I'll be 52lbs heavier and my liver will be the size of a toddler?

Maybe the body can't efficiently use them like it does other fats for hormone production and such but they definitely count as calories and they're definitely not just chilling anywhere in your body till you die.

Soup! Every fall/winter my fiance and I along with her father do Soup Sundays. We make a list of all the soups we want to do that year and then work through the list. Pretty much always make the stock from scratch so soup Sundays is usually me starting to boil down some bones around 10am and then going all day long.

🤮 Freecad is a barely functioning mess, fusion360 is a professional level cad that's free for hobbiest and infinitely more usable.

I spend most of my day doing cad work, I can jump between Catia, NX, Solidworks, Fusion360 with no problems but Freecad is just horrible. I want to like Freecad but the simplest things are the hugest pains in the ass, it's feature set is huge but none of the features are actually polished.

I laughed soooo hard when he said they plan on selling and then repeating the process every 2 years. How on earth is he a realtor but also thinks that 250k-500k gains on property over the course of 2 years is normal.

The housing market is in a huge bubble right now, my home is up ~50k since I bought in late 21 without me doing a damn thing.

I really wanna follow up with the guy in 2 years when he's complaining he's stuck with a 1million dollar how financed at 6% and he's 400k underwater and he should have just stayed at his previous home probably financed at 3%.

I believe, and I'd have to go find the quote, but he meant/said simple. Simple =/= easy, just that there are a few things you can do that have a huge impact. Like you could bombard the polar caps and release a shit ton of Co2 and water which would thicken the atmosphere, trap some heat, and start a rain cycle. That's conceptually simple but practically hard. To keep on with Musk, he's also been quoted multiple times saying that living on Mars is gonna suck for a long long time.

I guess in the same way climate change is conceptually simple but practically hard. Cutting out 90% of Co2 emissions pulling existing Co2 out is simple, most of the tech is already developed, it just would cost hugely insane amounts of money to do it quickly. We have direct air capture, we could build dedicated nuclear power air capture plants above existing limestone/granite deposits and pump them full. It just would cost $$$$/kg.

60deg in Spain was ground surface temp not air temp, air temp was like 40deg.

Even at +4c there will still be plenty of "nice" places for billionaires to fuck off to and build a nice little rich people commune. Hell, a +6c world is still the garden of eden in comparison to Mars.

Yes there's a lot of interest in Mars right now, but it's really is just mega rich nerds. Hell, if I was mega rich, I'd make an aerospace company too, space is cool.

The rich peppers are buying up land and building compounds in climate safe havens, like New Zealand.
