Pretty much the only cause of ear infections are bacteria and viruses, the cows milk as "irritant" doesn't make much sense. The tightness of the ear canals does.


You shouldn't discount experience simply because it doesn't make sense to you. This nurse was a veteran, and my personal experience with myself and my children lines up. But I'd say more than just the milk, diet and chemical exposure in general an important to understanding why we get sick. My Mom is an obsessive cleaner, and doesn't concern herself with the content of her cleaning products. My wife and I started eliminating chemical cleaners and soaps when our oldest kept getting really bad fevers and rashes. Since then none of our kids have had any allergies, ever, and none of them have ever had the ear infections that plagued me.

If it was genetics, or simply "A virus", then my kids would have gotten them too.

FBI is recruiting Sikhs at large scale.
I think They may be used to prosecute Hindooos and expel them from west.
Sikhs are well aware of crimes of Hindooo cult and they have axe to grind too.
I think as many innocenst Sikhs suffer at hands of Hindoo cult, same way many innocent Bhartis will suffer due to Hindooo tag.
It is best for Bhartis to dump Hindooo tag as fast as possible.

In rural TX, people have switched from hating "damned Yankees " to hating "damned Californians" who "ruined their own state, ran away, and are now trying to ruin our Great State".

Every time our neighbors go to La Grange or Brenham they come back with stories about annoying man-bun wearing electric car drivers...

Austin has become completely insufferable aka California East with a crappy climate, and California disease is now spreading into neighboring counties (Hays etc). We should build a wall around Austin limits and let them stew inside. Further away, even in Fayette or Washington counties which are popular with transplants the level of Californication is still low.

TX Governor has made mistake with tunnel vision of economic development at any cost without considering other things (Californians) that come with it.

Not even close. Rockefeller's wealth was as high a 2% of the US economy. By the way, you left out JP Morgan, who was rich enough to bail out the Federal debt.

Homes in Virginia are surprisingly reasonably priced.


I loved it there. If I was to leave Florida I would move back to Linden, VA and on Blue Mountain. There is Linden Vineyards and other vineyards nearby, the Appalachian Trail and Winchester has a lot going for it like a lot of sports and cultural events at Shenandoah University. In no traffic, downtown DC is only about 60 minutes away.

This is one of the least efficient forms of energy storage if I remember correctly. Round trip sucks on it due to air pumping thermodynamics.

Also, we think it’s a great idea to super pressurize the ground beneath us and not worry about bad things happening?

It's been that way for a while. My first visit was about 2005 for work. Went 3 times a year for about 5-7 years for conferences. It's Nashville south which I've been to just as much.

Both try the hipster vibe, but it's all large companies that own all these "hipster" bars. You gotta get off the main strips in those two cities specifically. Vegas owns selling its soul to big corps. Nashville and Austin try to hide it. They are very similar cities outside of Nashville having NFL and an NHL franchise there. Austin would be better in the winter though. Moot point though, done with cities beside using their airports.

Yeah, not a good way to store energy. There's the Carnot cycle.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnot_cycle

Basically, when you compress a gas, it heats up and you cannot possibly recover all the energy from the compression when you release it.

There was the MDI AirCar which promised to be able to move a vehicle something like 100 km on a single charge of compressed air. The most they ever got (to my knowledge) was 10 KM (which is still somewhat impressive), but not feasible. MDI AirCar was a scam, they were warned many times about the in-feasibility of their design. Their graft was to sell exclusive licenses to have the vehicle built, knowing full well it would never be built. Every year they would promise that their design was almost complete.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_Development_International

The scam might be still ongoing.

Correct. In fact, it pulls heat out of the air when it decompresses. This is generally how refrigeration and AC work.

That is exactly why small earthquakes are happening at record levels where ever fracking is taking place but what the heck - as long as someone makes $$$ - who cares.

Or as long as someone has a job is the way I look at it. I don't care if the company makes billions or trillions if they're employing people. There will be a mass event in the future that wipes out most of humans. Enjoy life. Don't fear death. If that involves using oil, so be it. If you're worried about the future, and have kids, you shouldn't have had them.

Live in the now and not the past or create future drama. Especially future planning. You can talk about the past, but don't dwell on it. Do what you can do in this moment to make yourself happy. Bitching about someone making money that puts food on the table of potentially thousands of people is silly. So the CEO makes $5M a year and the grunts in the fracking field get $80k a year. Both are likely happy. No one stopped the grunts from owning the company either.....

Cost, complexity, number of new electrical generating stations required to move the water, existing water use agreements on the Great Lakes that include Canada and so much more.

Canada can fuck itself. They have plenty of Lakes too and fresh water. Lake Michigan theoretically doesn't border Canada. Take it from there. The amount of oil and gas pipelines across this country is staggering. 3-4 water pipelines to CA isn't doable? People pay $2 for a bottle of water....

Like I said, build a small nuke plant to run the pumps. Either way you could dam up plenty of water in CA for electric and water supply. So a pipeline isn't necessary anyway. The solutions are there, but environmentalists make it impossible. At some point when is human life and sustainability more important? This food chain and circle of life stuff is bull shit. Species have been going extinct for millions of years. But this time it's different?

As a professor of engineering with a specialty in thermodynamics, I've seen many concepts that never should have been funded; they were doomed from the start.

Cannot cycle is an ideal heat engine. It's sets the ceiling for the maximum possible efficiency of a system. Second law being what it is, there is always an entropy tax to be paid. From friction to heat loss to system inefficiency no system is ideal, however some processes approach it reasonably well.

Engineering improvements, mostly in material innovations, have allowed for most of these gains, but at the end of the day you can't violate the laws of thermodynamics. You can't extract more energy than you put in, and some is always lost to the environment. It's just the way the universe works.

As an aside, this is why they won't let you patent a perpetual motion machine.

@GreaterNYCDude



That's a Solyndra photovoltaic collector. It's solar collectors in pipes, so they can collect photons from direct sunlight and photons that are bounced off from the white below them.

What do you see that is immediately wrong with it?
116304   GreaterNYCDude   2022 May 18, 9:49am  

Looks more like a solar thermal panel for heat generation (an underrated technology IMHO) than a solar electric cell.

I remember Solyndra they were the company up in Mass that Obama gave silly money too, only to see then go bankrupt. Complete con job as I recall. China was somehow involved as well, if I'm not mistaken.

The black surface will absorb heat, but I don't see any photons "bouncing off" the white surfaces being subsequently absorbed to any great extent. They will scatter. (Depends on angle of incidence, etc.)

Not to mention these are typically installed on a dark roof rather than a reflective surface as shown in the photo (unless they install a special reflective matting underneath) and being offset only a few inches, there's no direct sunlight comming in from underneath (or the sides) only direct sunlight from above.

There may be more that youe seeing that I'm not, but that's my initial assesment. A semicircular trough to concentrate sunlight (similar to the Solyndra project out in the Mojave dessert) would have had more potential, IMHO.

Whatever energy makes it through the "slats" (the white gaps) is all but lost to the environment. Plus the black "cells don't have much surface area and in solar eltric lanles its all about surface area. W/m2 and all that good stuff.

I used to design solar systems on the side and have assisted on a couple of installs over the years. But that was over a decade ago now.

What's rarely discussed is the metal health crisis.
It's not a popular opinion but bring back the asylum.
Too often we write a script , deem the problem solved and let them on their way.

Clearly the FBI can't (or won't) track every nutjob. And perhaps they shouldn't, given we still have presumed innocence and free speech. I said alot of dumb stuff at 16 to 18. Still do even today. But I've also never threatened to shoot anyone based on my perceived grivances with them.

If this guy made credible threats in the past how should we as a society deal with that? There are no easy awnsers as a broad brush solution most likley abridges freedoms for all.

The FIB CREATES these shootings. I know that sounds crazy, until you realize EVERY ONE OF THESE people were known by the FIB before it happened. You saw what happened in the Whitmer kidnapping case. You witnessed Ray Epps encouraging people to go break into the Capital, you saw police letting them in.

It's the fact it's not entirely black.

These are TUBES of solar cells. The goofy thinking is that they can capture photons at any angle. ENGINEERS WORKED ON THIS.

So, and because they are TUBES, they are hard to manufacture, and the there's more silicon used than what would be used if it was just a flat panel.

This was called "a scam" by many people, they got 1/2 billion in funding from the Obozo administration.

Yeah, and I think solar water heating is under-rated. Anybody living in the country should have a large tank of water, and some solar heaters. The only problem would be draining it when winter hit. Free hot water through all of summer.

First of all, the the brainwashed are potential allies. They just don't understand what the "Big Lie" is, and how it works. Tell an ENORMOUS lie and people react with "well, they wouldn't say that if they were lying!" - like lying about mass shootings, terrorist attacks, weapons of mass destruction, Assad gassing his own people, Trump being in league with Putin. When they are caught in the lie, it has to be a mistake, and even when they are caught, people won't listen to the information.

Second, the boomer generation is mostly impossible to reach. X is easier, Y is easier, and so it goes. I know people think "oh this next generation is a bunch of brainwashed zombies" - well who wasn't at 20? Counter culture today is "conservative" and not Bush Neocon conservative, Ron Paul, Ludwig von Mises, Donald Trump "conservative".

As long as the water tank is inside your house. I think it's better to have it outside, because as it cools even through good insulation, it warms your home up during the summer, you don't want that.

I'd say just drain it.

They do a similar thing in NorCal: dam with a forebay. At peak times in the day, when the utilities can sell for the HIGHEST PRICE, water is let thru the dam into the lower level forebay, powering hydro turbines. At night, water is pumped (with CHEAP low demand time electricity) from the forebay back up into the dam's lake. So power is surely lost, but profit is made.

Nuke plants would fix all this crazy shit.

I guess that answers my question somewhat. Gen-X is so small, and we know that morality/politics/etc. is predominantly peer pressure. My greatest fear is that we x'rs will have nothing to teach that can be accepted by the next generation, since culture is effectively peer-presure. Gen-y will roll over us like bison or lemmings, unless they are are as "special" as their boomer parents have claimed.
