The tether / power transmission line does pass through potential flight paths, tho.
Still, I imagine the impact to be even less than ground-based turbines.
While it is rather complex and hard to predict, the most likely global outcomes are fewer extreme weather events and extremely mild cooling. The hairy ball theorem tells us there's already somewhere on the globe with no wind, so it's not that big of a deal to convert some wind into electricity. This particular approach couldn't convert "all" wind into electricity.
https://www.sciencenewstoday.org/spinning-skies-how-earths-rotation-shapes-our-weather -- We won't run out of wind until after we start slowing down the rotation of the earth, and we watch that pretty closely to know when to add leap seconds, and I imagine it's an just absolutely huge store of energy in the form of angular momentum (et. al.).
I use vim keybindings and have ESC,/ to do a reverse command search.
"que sera sera" es un ejemplo.
Is "the spectrums" like "the vapours" or like "the sugars" (aka "sugar diabeetus" )?
I still think you misused the "Sunken Cost Fallacy".
But, I agree that it's not some sort of moral imperative to stay. That decision depends on so many factors, not the least of which is how much you actually believe the midterms will occur and have any positive impact.
I had a Home Econ teacher in secondary school that had the same thing. She had to use a mic+speaker just to do lectures. When she was my mother's teacher her voice was fine.
I'm a little surprised at how long RFK Jr. can prattle on. My home ec teacher limited her speaking as much as reasonable; she said she got sore throats easily from speaking too much.
Could you clarify how that applies here?
I'm aware that you shouldn't continue an action/behavior that will be bad for you, just because you already spent resources (the "sunk cost") on it. But, I'm not sure exactly how that applies here. At least I believe the request to "stick it out until the midterms" comes from a belief that voting in the midterms will bring a benefit to the individual and the collective.
Also, I don't want to "give over" my beautiful state's natural resources to the fascists without a fight. (But, yes, primarily it's familial duty that keeps me here.)
They might be in the majority, but sometimes democracy is about changing minds first and winning votes later.
I used to prefer personalized ads over the insanity that was 90-00s "random" ads experience. But, since ads became a risk vector, I agree with a block by default approach, and I'll find alternate ways to support sites I visit frequently rather than allowlist ads.
