  1. In the US there are many more Republicans dropping dead than Democrats. Just guess why... Two hints: Which group was more vaccinated? Which group did take social distancing and masks more serious? The risks of Covid vaccination are negligible compared to having Covid. From More Republicans Died Than Democrats after COVID-19 Vaccines Came Out

  2. I know exactly what you mean. Those Nazi Ukrainians, and their jewish President, will stop at nothing in an effort to implicate those innocent Russian victims and make them look bad in the eyes of the World. Those well-intentioned Russians should just leave the Ukraine to their evil ways, and stop trying to help and denazify them.

  3. ! Moderator Note You need to provide evidence that the premise is true - that the vaccines are dangerous - before you proceed to arguments based on it ! Moderator Note We are not discussing gun control in this thread

  4. I’m not interested in doing your legwork for you, nor chasing Lucy and the football after I’ve provided examples only for you to merely dismiss them or move the goalposts, but thank you for your kind offer.

  5. Interesting that there is so much water, considering the high temperatures - 900C- on the sunward side (it's tidally locked, apparently). One would think water would be lost into space at such temperatures, as the fraction of light molecules with velocity > escape velocity must be significant, I'd have thought. But then if, as they suggest, it started out in an orbit of similar radius to that of Jupiter, and was later kicked inward, we are probably not looking at an equilibrium state.

  7. It's the lattes. Robust young profession people are obviously succumbing to the poisons in caffeinated and dairy-enhanced beverages. Studies are required to isolate the interaction between coffee and cow products that is undeniably so toxic to human life. [/BS] 😏

  8. Agreed, if that brings you comfort. Nor can I. Do you think believing that when you die, you're... dead, is doom and gloom? What biblical promises have come true?

  9. Right. They usually shoot each other with guns, which Republicans promote to buy for everybody.. "PUBLISHED DATE: December 02, 2022 Total Number of GV Deaths - ALL Causes 40,739 Homicide/Murder/Unintentional/DGU 18,563 Suicide 22,176" Nonsense. People are dumber because they are stuck in their unhealthy social media interest bubbles. As we can see from your example - conspiracy theories. Right. Then why aren't you using your own advice?

  12. You're in luck, since I've heard some very convincing arguments lately that laziness, at least the way we typically think of it, never existed in the first place. It's simply a way to judge people who aren't doing something you think they should. The idea that people would rather do nothing than anything else is patently untrue. What we've always thought of as laziness is often just smart people refusing to do something in which they see no value, or smart people doing their jobs with the least amount of effort. Some jobs have been so dumbed down that they're almost insulting. Personally, I've always bragged about working smart rather than working hard. Does that make me lazy? This is one reason why I think the term is being misused. Right now, lots of business owners are screaming about lazy workers bringing conflict and problems, but I know a lot of those folks are just fed up with being underpaid. Productivity has been through the roof for the last 50 years, but wages have stagnated for workers and they're sick of working for a pittance while the rich sit on fat stacks of cash, waiting for the worker to falter so they can buy up their assets at twenty cents on the dollar. Again I think you're off by a bit. It's not the comforts that makes us less smart or want to work less, because historically, saving up for the comforts made us work harder to earn them. I think it's the convenience. Convenience seems to promote an attitude where people should do dumb things in order to save time. Spend an extra 25% on items from a small store so you don't have to spend the time dealing with a bigger store. Or shop online thinking to save some time but end up researching 20 products and their comments sections for three hours. Convenience lets you drive on fresh asphalt AND ensures you'll have potholes next year. I think "lazy" is a pejorative whip used by those who want us to work harder on their terms. Humans in general aren't lazy at all. We're ultra smart and curious, and we all prefer to do the things we want to do as opposed to the things we may HAVE to do. Nobody teaches us when we turn 18 that we have to parent ourselves from now on, and the real job of parents is to get us to do things we don't want to do. Practically everybody wants to do things as opposed to not doing anything, but they often don't want to do what everyone else thinks they should be doing. I remember being called lazy once because I arranged my work area to where everything was a bit closer to me. The boss hired me to make fittings and put them into boxes, not walk around unnecessarily, but when I tried to do a better job he called me lazy for not wanting to walk those extra steps. I pointed out that it saved me a LOT of time, but he still thought it was lazy. Said a young man shouldn't mind a few extra steps. I thought he was crazy.

  13. The main most important source of all problems that must be achieved is eliminating laziness. Brings all sorts of conflicts and problems. Anywhere there is trouble can be traced back to laziness. The relentless pursuit of comforts makes it impossible to get rid of laziness.

  20. What your proposal seeks to do is increase the contact area between brine and the lower couple of hundred feet of the atmosphere in order for it to approach equilibrium at 100% RH more rapidly. My point is that nature already does this quite effectively. The missing step is getting heat into the system. This is required to both increase the water holding capacity of the airstream and reduce its density sufficiently to allow it to rise. The amount of heat the sun is putting into the ocean to try and do this is measured in Terawatts. And in the cases we have mentioned that isn't enough to overcome the local conditions which are dominated by cold ocean currents. How many TW do you propose adding to this equation? Have you ever heard the phrase 'latent heat of vapourisation'? Have you any idea what it means?

  21. I do get the picture. 1) If there is a significant onshore wind, it is already humid and will cause rain inland. There is no problem to address. 2) You cannot significantly increase the humidity of this wind without increasing its temperature. 3) The evaporation of brine requires even more heat input. 4) I've not even mentioned the astronomical pumping costs. This quote from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Namib gives an idea of the practical realities you are trying to reverse: ie The 'significant onshore wind' and 'rising thermals' simply don't happen. If they did, it wouldn't be a desert.

  22. It's funny how much people have forgotten that baseball is just a game and that players don't care about their fans. If suddenly you find yourself in a real tight situation in life, do you honestly believe that Aaron Judge will come to the rescue? I like baseball and respect talented people but that's about it. Aaron Judge was offered 300 million for 8 years and said no. He's going to be 31. Not enough cash, Aaron? So, leave the Yankees. I don't care.

  23. Jesus will not condemn anyone by looking at a list of bad things done here. We will be accepted or rejected entrance into heaven based on our decision to repent and follow Him. If we were judged by God based on the bad things we do and the bad thoughts that daily cross our minds, no one gets into the paradise of God. We can take that to the bank.

  24. I say the truth shall set you free. Believe what you think is right for you. Your username is familiar to me. Believe what you think is right for you. I will post the evidence this weekend. It's sad to know that so many intelligent people believe that Republicans are the main cause of evil. Both parties cannot be trusted. I am completely vaccinated but only because my job security was threatened. I concur. Politics is evil. You are seriously blind and your path leads to death and destruction. Thank you all for your replies. I will reply to all when time allows.

  25. I am not startled the China virus. This is nothing new to me. Bill Gates, who is very passionate about world depopulation, spoke clearly to a large audience in 2013 about the coming killer virus. He knew about COVID-19 then and the aftermath of vaccines and boosters. By the way, I am not a fan of Bill Gates, George Soros and other billionaires who are selfishly thinking about reducing population for their own sick and perverted pleasure.

  26. Young, strong, energetic people dropping like flies. This is happening all over the world not just in the United States but people refuse to believe the fact that COVID-19 vaccines are dangerous. This has to be the most wet behind the ears generation of people in the history of mankind. The democrats are counting on us to get dumber and dumber by the minute. It's very easy to brainwash and control people who are not well-informed. You say?
