  • The rest of the world will be fine like when mao had the birds shot or when USSR relied on Lysenko instead of Vavilov. The US...people are going to have to get ok with shitty living real fast. Ironically, this giant reduction in the ability to consume will likely be great for the average carbon footprint.

  • The dissociation constant of pure water at RT is 1x10-14. This is many magnitudes more than just one per avogadros number. The "trick" is that any given molecule of water basically has that 1x10-14 chance of being split or otherwise whole at any given time.

  • Unfortunately, I can. 30% of Americans are actively antiscience/reality and they for sure enforce it on their kids. Another 40% honestly don't give a fuck and again show that apathy to their kids. Leaves 30% who care but doesn't exclude those who are limited by socioeconomics.

    You talk to people and realize their parents never drove them out of the light pollution late at night to see a meteor shower or comet pass by never showed them any of the constellations, etc. Applies to all science really but astronomy is often put on the wayside even more than others because a lot of people really aren't curious about space anymore. We've seen this with NASA funding since the end of the Apollo missions.

  • She was kinda stuck with that though because she was still VP and whether fair or not that is also viewed as her economy. The economy being good and costs for the average citizen aren't the same thing anymore and I think that doesn't really "compute". Was a lot better than the current economy anyway...

  • There are laws about it for military stuff, they actually can just be legally nationalized if a CEO is being a traitor. I'm not sure about the timeline for that to be done but trying to do it at all would have been better than continuing with no consequences.

    There are limited alternatives to starlink in war zones with infrastructure at risk like Ukraine, not to mention the government contracts that were signed to pay and use them mean switching isn't the easiest.
