I mean, this quote isn't real. He never said it... And the proof that he said something somewhat close to it is anecdotal.

Yep, we may have figured out a cure for 30% of people.
Needs further testing and a larger sample size to confirm. But progress is always good

Reply to comment by CILISI_SMITH in Meet The World's Cleanest Fully Electric Car That Removes Carbon Dioxide From The Air by Anderson069
It's not a bad idea for short distance driving. Even if it takes 2-3 Years to remove a Tree's worth of carbon, it is a valid technology to look at.
It is not the solution, not the magic bandaid. But it's a tool and to scoff at it doesn't help the problem when we're supposedly already past a point of no return.

And fevers are often just an attempt to mitigate until you can produce an adequate antibody response

Climate Change creates weather extremes.

It's worth noting how mild the winter is, but when it's actually cold..... it get's really cold. You could convince me that 0-10°F doesn't exist and I'd believe you

I mean, we get those occasionally. New England is well know for it's weirdly out of season weather every so often.
​
Now, the real point of contention here is that winters have been much milder, where 15 years ago it would be 10-20°F it's now 25-35°F and snow doesn't really stick to the ground anymore, usually coming and then melting the next day or so.

Reply to Large open car parks in urban areas present a substantial opportunity for solar PV with EV charging. by DisasterousGiraffe
Improving the temperature of Cities and reducing the carbon footprint of cities is a twofold process of removing excess and unused pavement and replacing it with green space, while also moving towards solar panels to provide shade and energy absorption where we still need parking.
Better public transportation would also help immensely

I mean, if it is a console, it's competing with the Switch. Not the Series X.

That's the part they're missing

It's funny because Edison never said that.

The anecdote from an associate in his biography isn't even the same

Reply to comment by cruiserman_80 in The 1984 Dune film makes a lot more sense if The Spice is referred to as Space Cocaine instead. by neoengel
Yeah, but the spice is also extremely magical and almost acts as a sort of life source.
There is no real world contemporary analogy for the Spice Melange because it's like 10 things combined.

Don't worry.... I was super skeptical as well... but including the internal portion of the gland... it is much more believable

Reply to comment by juxtoppose in Astronomers find a “cataclysmic” pair of stars with the shortest orbit yet: The stars circle each other every 51 minutes, confirming a decades-old prediction by Additional-Two-7312
Probably a Jupiter or 2 apart. (Maybe a bit more)
Enough that they can't collapse on each other and their launch force from continual slingshotting holds them in a fixed orbit by canceling out gravity

One of the beneficial bits about Heat Pumps is they don't release energy into heat, meaning their net heat output is equal to the inefficiency of the pump and fans.
Whereas something like a gas furnace has a net heat output equal to its electrical inefficiency plus it's fuel burn efficiency
