Not only that, the economy continued to thrive until 2075 or so. The Jetsons could afford a house in the sky, a flying car, George supported a wife and two kids on his job as a Digital Index Operator at Spacely. -

I was just looking through some old pictures.
The trick is not being inside the can when it snaps shut. -

I think it was the exact same setup as Nov 22, 1963, except all their "marksmen" were incompetent bozos. they came within millimeters of killing Trump. i don't think they planned on missing.
they even had a patsy to sacrifice and blame for the shooting. -

it's hard to keep track of those details, when they slide off the map with most of the Schwarzes Meer. it was simpler to just draw a keg of Pulver . .
there is a long list of places Americans can't find on a map. Vietnam, before 1960; Iraq before 1990; Afghanistan before 2003; Bulgaria -- where is Bulgaria, anyway? -

when someone says they are Ukrainian what does that even mean?
the "offifial narrative" that history started in 2022 is in direct contradiction to the "official narrative" that Russia annexed some stuff before 2022... there are no nazis in Ukraine but the Canadian parliament gave a round of applause for an old Uke who worked for Hitler...
I'd say there is an argument to be made for not a real country. it's a patchwork of stuff left over from WW2 and the collapse of the USSR. and the Ottomans before that. the globohomo witches and wizards had an easy time setting Ukrainians against each other.
so, this poast guy who says he's Ukrainian, what oblast did he come from? what was his first language? orthodox or latin rites or atheist? there are a lot of micro-details to this "country". -

I understand the name is from a local language word for "borderland"
they need to choose a real name. -

with all that said, of course Sweden is working on not being a real country, so...
real countries have their borders set and reset by war, which is currently underway. no doubt there will be some hurt feelings.
I'd just prefer Brandon stop escalating toward a nuke exchange with Moscow. -

they come in larger sizes. you could easily fit 33T of those micro-SD cards in your pocket.
or you could put the whole mess on a 2.5" 100 TB SSD. -

.. in which case, you are essentially running on aluminum. why not just run an electric motor on an aluminum primary cell?
Like the lithium borohydride, it requires more energy and chemistry to re-make the fuel.
the byproduct is aluminum oxide, send it back to the bauxite plant... -

Yeah, you might as well run your engine on hydrochloric acid.
There is just no way to store hydrogen in a small container, with any efficiency. Lithium borohydride is a pretty compact source, but at the end of the journey you have lithium borate, and a whole lot of chemistry and energy is required to recreate the hydride. Some rare and exotic metals, like palladium, can store hydrogen -- which defeats the purpose of lightweight energy. Liquefy it, like fuel for the space shuttle ... it is ridiculously cold, and explosively boils if you look at it wrong. Or compress it, for a very short ride before another fill-up is needed. Or you can tow a zeppelin on a long umbilical leash. -

note @IAMAL_PHARIUS 's cetane molecule up there. it has sixteen carbons in it. works great in your old antique diesel Mercedes. -

the name 'cetane' for that molecule is a nod to the whaling industry, the original source of those lovely biological oils. palmitic acid is the corresponding 16-carbon acid ... they are not merely from whales and palm nuts, these oils are widespread in nature.
the biggest objection to using e.g. olive oil to power your car is that bio-oils contain other gunk that clogs pumps and plumbing, and encourages the growth of oil-loving bacteria and fungi. diesel injectors squirt the oil thru near-microscopic holes into the combustion chamber, can be fouled by small particles, and are hard to clean.
(and of course, that is why used cooking oil is transesterified to make biodiesel, even though it would sort-of work without modification)
