You’d just need metal for this.

Obviously some goes out laterally, but next to the ground is where the lowest flux of shrapnel will be.

Neither do any motorcycles, and they’re allowed on the road.

1. easily will break glass, they’re heavy, dense, and hard

2. hit the deck, the explosion will be up and out

3. shrapnel is how fragmentation grenades kill, not the overpressure wave

What is the ideal amount of biomass for humans? Same question for agricultural land. What’s the ideal amount? I’m torn between thinking this is just how things go or maybe I’m just terribly ignorant. At some point the majority of biomass was dinosaurs or something, so what? That’s the ebb and flow of life. It wasn’t the biomass of dinosaurs that caused their extinction. How do these biomass stats indicate overpopulation?

I can’t disagree with the industrial farming and overall ecosystem points you raise but the biomass bits seem awfully arbitrary.

I’d also say feeding 50% of the world’s population for 2% of the world’s energy seems pretty damn efficient.

how do I know if you mean memes or memes tho

What is a meme?

Nah, seems like they just misinterpreted what I was saying.

No worries, thanks for allowing me to explain and reading what I said. Online discussions can be difficult these days.

That is absolutely not what I’m saying. I’m saying the biological processes that lead to intersex or otherwise “complicated” sex conditions are fairly well understood. Sex is much more complicated than just the M/F dichotomy, and the current scientific and medical understanding of sex supports this.

Those who deny that sex is more complicated than binary M/F are rejecting well established science.

Can you explain further? I’m a biochemist / medical lab scientist, and between my studies in genetics, human sexuality, and endocrinology, it seems pretty well figured out. Between “normal” X/Y chromosomes, various chromosomal abnormalities (X, XXX, XXY, XYY, etc), and mutations like androgen insensitivity syndrome it seems there is significant causal data. Not sure if they’ve studied these with knockout mice but it’s well beyond inference at this point.

I’m not sealioning here, it has been like a decade since I was actively learning this stuff and I’m sure there have been more discoveries. In general though it seems like we know the genetics, we know the hormones and receptors involved, the developmental process and various maladies are known, etc.

Doesn’t sound to me like you know the difference between sex and gender. We do have a pretty solid idea of how genetics and sex are intertwined, including intersex conditions. Gender is a whole different thing.

No doubt. Just saying If you’re in the capitalist world, it’s coming to you too.

This has little to do with the country it’s based in and everything to do with the economic system it exists in.

What it did not do, explicitly, was grant Tesla the right to use public or private property for wastewater conveyance.

It’s still an illegal discharge. There are multiple things listed that are not good for the local environment. Even phosphorus and ammonia can be damaging by stimulating algae blooms.

Didn’t they just kill a new Deus Ex game that was in development months ago?

You ran Napster on a 486? I was on a Pentium 200MMX in that era.

Ain’t no x86 hardware coming close to ARM regardless of the OS installed.

They function as low pass filters, acting as resistors once the frequencies are high enough. All wires function as antennas and these prevent spurious transmission or reception of signals.
