That's awesome, do you have any take on helion's approach to cracking fusion?

You are correct if they use trains however more than likely they will use traditional transport trucks which when accounted for the cost of each item is actually more expensive than shipping by barge of course this is offset if the point is far from a coast or shipping yard because then they would use traditional transport shipping as well.

I guess the point I made inproperly was that it's more complicated than saying it's closer so it's better

Yeah I really hope that we gain traction for this within our lifetimes because I think it will be the first step in helping our democracy reflect the will of the people

... Well not that shocked.

too much rain is the last thing I thought would be LA's problem

The US has become such a fucking deregulated hellscape and I hate that Canada is following their lead.

It is unquestionably better for the environment to use a more sustainable form of transit but the above comment I was replying to spoke mainly about logistics something that our routes with China have mastered and not that we can't do the same or better with Mexico.

While this is true, over seas shipment is actually incredibly cheap and efficient. I'm sure Mexico also has great shipping lanes to but cheap overseas shipping is why fruit is packed in countries 1000s of miles apart from where it is grown.

You're god damn right.

Not big on nuance are we?

Somewhere can be being terrorized and a difficult place to live while simultaneously having still accomplished landmarks and infrastructure and culture. The implication here is that over the time of the attacks several of these landmarks and infrastructure projects have been left in ruin.

Which it most likely will because if we know one thing about companies musk is involved in is that they usually cut safety and regulatory Jobs first

I used to work for AT&t and it was all to common get someone cancelling while crying because their life is over and their credit is ruined because of the cost of a surgery that could never afford to pay. Sometimes we'd give them a couple months or something but a system like that shouldn't exist

I wish

Yes please

Can someone eli5 why this is a good thing in an aging economy already struggling to meet pension demands.

Not trying to be saucy I just don't get it.

Edit: nevermind I missed a important part of the article, it's in response to universities profiteering off of international students with exorbitant rates specific the them, makes sense.

However I have to question if oversight and punishment of universities profiteering with less than stellar academic outcomes would be more effective than capping intentional student enrollment. Doesn't sound like it directly addresses the issue.

Based, now if only Congress would ratify the right to bodily autonomy into fucking law we'd really be taking.

Yeah people act outside of their own self interest all the time, it's why things get regulated in the first place and one of the reasons the invisible hand of the market is a myth.

I mean Sony has been pulling plenty of terrible shit and Nintendo hates their fans. PC is the only consumer friendly option and they're doing their best to make sure that stops.

People love to hate Microsoft and for good reason given some of their bizarre moves.

It does seem disproportionate to other companies sometimes but I think that's due to their ubiquity.
