A few select ones would make a massive difference.

Sure but the generation of new hydrocarbons from sequestered resources means net available carbon increases. You’re totally right that converting existing atmospheric CO2 to methane would have a larger impact. I’m not saying agriculture is off the hook here, nor that we should consider the horse as a solution to climate change, just that we probably wouldn’t need this conversation without fossil fuel extraction.

Cars run on gas, horses run on grass.

Livestock contribute by land use (deforestation, crops for feed, pasture), water consumption, and the fossil fuel used in logistics processes (farm equipment, transport, electricity, etc…)

But anyways, animal farts come from preexisting carbon in the biosphere. Car farts come from extracting previously sequestered carbon. So without extractive processes, and with ethical land use/management, the atmospheric methane wouldn’t have a significant impact.

Also you fart too. So there’s that…

Yeah, too glitchy (missing functionality) with wine and the cloud services are unreliable if working at all. Work stuff so gotta use it 🫠

While FreeCAD has made huge leaps forward it’s just not there yet, and it may never be what’s needed to replace windows exclusive CAD software.

I’m stuck with the windows second boot, for better or worse, unless i change profession.

Sorry, i meant in the classical form of bernoulli’s equation it’s been a while. It’s common for people to suggest the wing is half a venturi, then try to apply 1DOF algebraic equations which don’t work here.

Crazier to think 60tons of air being pushed down 10m/s^2 (or whatever equivalent mass/acc you want to think with) to keep it up there.

Keep this handy for this situation… https://www.grc.nasa.gov/WWW/k-12/VirtualAero/BottleRocket/airplane/wrong1.html

See #3. Wings are not constrictions in a tube.

Billionaires lost their fear of publicly supporting fascism.

Im mainly angry at ACA for the exact reasons you present here. Many benefited from it but the people i spent the most time around people who still couldn’t access care. Healthcare must be universally free to be meaningful.

That said it did benefit people. Just not what it needed to be.

Oh yeah the way they did bernie dirty destroyed enthusiasm and that echos even today. The dems showed they don’t care for a populist movement.

Im not saying give up. Just be real and listen to what trump and the right is saying. They don’t shroud their intent anymore. They say it up front. Dictator day one.

We won’t see a restoring change come from a political party. Whether the goal is pushing the current political structures left or superceding them it must come from popular mobilization.

ACA wasn’t even a bandaid. It only helped the middle class by reducing and capping costs and removing preexisting condition clauses. The poors still couldn’t afford it, and were punished for that either by having to pay for the still expensive insurance or being fined at tax time. It’s not an insignificant reason we got trump in the first place.

50/50 on that one. It’s just as likely they keep an opposition party to keep up appearances as many dictators do and have sham elections.

There either won’t be a 2028 election or it will be a sham. They have control of the entire government. The constitution will change. The courts will be harder right. The ONLY things holding them back will be a senator or two philibustering (until it’s outlawed) and the senses of high military command.

Also since trump will have ultimate immunity in office he can simply ignore the constitution altogether without consequence. He won’t have to step down. As admitted he’ll be a dictator.

Nah, I’d feel rather blessed to trudge through crow poo on the daily in my stompers. SF is brewing something terrible. The crows will have their retribution.

What!? Why scare the crows away?

Nice bat!

I don’t understand your response then. If it doesn’t then why would it be a consideration here?

Fine but why does one potential future genocide justify the realized genocide currently under way?
