it will waste less space in the recycling bin
In here pretty much every bottle and can for beverages has a deposit included in them. 0,10€ for small (<1l I think) plastic bottles, 0,15€ for cans. They're included in the shelf price and when you bring them back to the recycling you'll get your deposit back. Then the recycling machine crushes all to pallets and they're hauled to a factory which then makes new stuff out of the plastic and aluminium.
No need to throw them away. In here the return rate is >90% and even if you don't care about the few coins it's common to leave the empty bottles on top of or next to a recycling bin where others can pick them up and return.
But it also balances that by not automatically changing your status on random even if it should. Including setting status to 'busy' when you're on another meeting, showing you offline when you're available and so on. On our team the availability status is pretty much useless and we rely on chat responses on what the current actual status might be.
You could save yourself cents per year!
That's pretty much it. Maybe even tens of cents. In pre-USB era that actually made sense, Nokia chargers with a barrel jack (and other that era wall-warts) consumed even several watts on idle but (assuming a good quality) modern USB-bricks are way more efficient. They still consume a non-zero amount of power when plugged in but you're not going to see that on your power bill. You'll waste far mor energy if you forget your bathroom lights on overnight, even with LED bulbs.
But surely in order to “feel things” you would need a nervous system right? When you feel pain from touching something very hot, it’s your nerves that are sending those pain signals to your brain… right?
On that case, on our meatsacks, yes. But there's also emotional pain which can cause physical pain or other effects too and that doesn't require nerves at all. Also there's nothing stopping from an AI robot to have nervous system too, it would just have different kind of sensors and a CAN bus or something instead of organic stuff. There's already co-operation robots on factories which have sensors to detect if they are touching something in order to keep humans safe and from there it's not too far fetched to program it to feel "pain" if forces are big enough.
And that all boils down to on how you define consciousness, feelings, pain response and all that stuff. "Behold! I've brought you a man!" I yell while holding a chiken.
DOT 5.1 to significantly increase that wet boiling point, but it’s expensive for normal car use
Huh? In here you can get DOT5.1 for the same price than DOT4. Roughly 10€ per litre, depending on brand and how big bottle you get.
You don't even need to push. Just wait a while until the toddler finds something else to focus on and forget what happened today.
It was some time ago but a response from Canadian supplier to US customer went few rounds on social media. They informed that the item customer was buying was under a tariff and gave options to either pay up the tariffs, cancel the sale with no extra cost or just wait for few days and see what happens. And the really stupid part is that it was (and largely is) a viable strategy, at least on customer sales. For businesses that's obviously a total nightmare, but that's just one example on how ridiculous any kind of trade with the US is right now.
You are absolutely correct on that, but I find it a bit ironic anyways. Trump seems to be quite fond of royalty, at least UK kind, and this underlines even more that relationship with Europe is going down the drain and fast. Royal families across the Europe are more or less either family or at least friends together and this will play it's small part on US failures to maintain any kind of political or other power across the pond.
Noissa omissa tonnin - kahden kotteroissa ei reaaliarvo enää merkittävän paljon muutu. Ja vähän sama homma se on noiden kesämökkienkin kanssa, joillain on iso hirsihuvila Levillä kaikilla mausteilla ja toisilla on mökkinä pieni rintamaiestalo Keuruulla. Jälkimmäisenkään reaaliarvo ei vuosien kuluessa merkittävän paljon heilu.
Tästäkin syystä tuommoiset rajaukset verotukseen jonkin asian omistamisesta on vähän haasteellisia. Vaikka minullakin on autoja oikein kaksin kappalein niin vaikkapa X7 BMWn tai Audi RS6:n hintalapussa on sen verran että oma talo autotalleineen ja tontteineen, autoineen ja kaiken muun irtaimiston kanssa maksaa vähemmän.
aika monelle myös auto, on luksusta
Toisaalta aika monelle, minä mukaanlukien, auto on käytännön välttämättömyys. Täällä taajamamerkkien väljemmällä puolella kun ei julkisesta liikenteestä ole paljon iloa. Tuo kesämökki taas mielestäni menee selkeästi luksuksen puolelle, joskin niitäkin on aika paljon laidasta laitaan. Yksi euromäärä olisi paljon selkeämpi, joskin silloin rajaa pitäisi varmaan nostaa tuosta 100t vähän ylemmäs jos halutaan omakotitalot jättää vaikutuksen ulkopuolelle.
which was a ‘neutral’ border back then
There's quite a few unmarked graves along that border and immense effort from my countrymen to keep the border where it is. It hasn't been "neutral" for too long. And being prepared to keep that border where it is plays a part on why our president from a small country is on discussions with Ukraine, EU leaders and that orange clown across the pond today.
Also when sodium hydroxide reacts with acid it releases CO2 and it affects growth of at least some fungus. Also, if a brick sized fuel cell can provide 1kWh and single transatlantic flight consumes at least 20MWh you'd need a pile big enough to build a house which doesn't sound feasible.
But I'm not a chemist either, I suppose it boils down to comparing negative effects between this new cell against kerosine. Plus there's always the case which affects any new kind of storing energy where it'll be indefinetly 'ready for market in next 5 years'.
