Not to mention, who is in control of making the tests? Mental health/aptitude tests have had a history of being at least a little bit racist, kinda like the old ‘intelligence’ tests that were designed to prevent black people from voting.

The image sensor is square… it should just shoot 1:1 scale and let you crop it to an orientation later
Hard rationing of greenhouse gas emissions
You’re more or less describing cap-and-trade, where corporations have a limit of carbon emissions as ‘credits’ which can be traded on a market. So a company that doesn’t produce as much emissions can sell their surplus credits to another company, so the market as a whole doesn’t exceed a set amount of CO2 emissions. As it stands, in this or other carbon tax based systems, people pay for emissions in the form of sales tax on CO2 producing products.

I’d imagine they’d just leave again eventually. If suburbia was an advantageous place for them, they’d already be there.
Nuclear power plants within or adjacent to urban centers, especially in colder climate regions.
Nuclear plants are somewhat geographically restricted to needing to be close to a suitable water source, there’s plenty that are next to or inside metropolitan areas. That being said, high voltage transmission means that a plant can still be a few tens of kms outside of a city before transmission losses start to add up. Also, small-scare reactors have been under development for use in remote communities.
Gray water recovery built into homes and municipal water systems.
Any sort of dirty water recovery is more efficient at the municipal scale, and plenty of towns are already doing that.
Urine collection programs for phosphate recovery.
Seems that’s not a super easy thing to do (read expensive), but there’s research being done… also apparently, a good portion of it in wastewater is from laundry soap… but as in the above, more efficient to just collect all wastewater and process it on a large scale.
Are you slow? nobody is arguing that you can hot swap a GPU. That’s not what people are correcting you on.
YOU claimed that PCIE is not PLUG AND PLAY
NO. PCIE is not plug and play.
That was your comment. It was wrong. You were wrong.
Dude… you’re the one that said PCIE isn’t plug and play, which is incorrect. Plug and play simply means not having to manually assign IRQ/DMA/etc before using the peripheral, instead being handled automatically by the system/OS, as well as having peripherals identify themselves allowing the OS to automatically assign drivers. PCIE is fully plug-and-play compatible via ACPI, and hot swapping is supported by the protocol, if the peripheral also supports it.
Don’t forget the taxes that pay for said roads
Same in Ontario. I’ll get a paper copy if I ask for one, but otherwise new scripts are faxes direct to the pharmacy. Even paper copies are a printout though. I haven’t gotten a handwritten prescription in well over a decade now
The truly infuriating part is there’s likely lots of people out there that got them on the first try or by accident
If you get into homebrewing, you will likely end up owning a grain mill as well, which is also capable of turning wheat into flour
It’s PR bullshit to give an excuse for backtracking basically
For a non load bearing wall, the biggest consideration is going to be hanging drywall which is why you’ll see either 16" or 24" OC (to align with a 48" wide sheet). Since the wall isn’t meant to hold any weight above it, there’s a little more flexibility in where you place your studs, so you’re probably fine without that extra stud.
That being said, check your local building code, there might be a regulation for that.
You’re a bundle of neurons piloting a skeleton inside a wetsuit
Probably something with a .ru TLD
It’s great for cooking as well, you can just pour that 1/4 cup you need to deglaze a pan or whatever without again committing to finishing a bottle or having it go bad.
With the current theory of how the moon was formed, it was in fact close enough to be touching the earth at one point… technically
Go full ancient Greece and compete nude /s
Ah yes, because everybody once they reach the age of 18 have their entire personality set in stone never to change again for the rest of their lives.
Maybe we should just drop him in a volcano because he admitted that at one point he was anti-LGBTQ? What then is the point in even trying to convince others to change their ways if we’re only going to ostracize them based on their previous worldview?
I was also raised catholic, and am now atheist mostly because the church itself can’t even seem to manage one of the three, let alone all of them. Even on a personal level, penance is just mouthing some prayers in an empty church, there’s no real requirement after confession to go make it right
But you’re still kinda right. Not voting is a vote for trump, and conservatives know this. Disenfranchisement via drug convictions is a key weapon in their arsenal.
Yes, your total energy consumption drops, but your electricity consumption rises as a result. Electrification of stuff that relied on burning fossil fuels means that electricity consumption goes up even while total energy consumption stays the same or drops. I’m not necessarily saying that nuclear is the solution, but it’s a solution that can at least buy us a few decades for renewables and energy storage to catch up to demand.
