What about cutting subsidies? Make the price of fuel more realistic to force reductions. The money saved can go to the same places, but we also slow emissions. It will definitely be terrible for most people, but real solutions have to be hard.

Whatever works.

Maybe if she can get into the position where she can do something.

Oh hell...please let Walz begin some statement with, "Son..."

Nah, he won't do it, he's a nice guy. But it would be glorious.

A non-functioning government due to obstruction.

suggests threatening a shutdown

Thanks for the example of obstruction, Vance. Go buy another donut.

Make it a town hall. We really do need to hear questions and answers of serious topics now that the clown has left the big top.

You should add in programming languages with zero, null, empty, and the rest.

Thanks. I recall seeing this info before, and I questioned the same thing before. While any depletion is bad, is 17 tons the windmill to attack when other emissions affecting ozone and other effects are far, far greater? I get that it's saying a larger increase means more residuals left, but can we possibly pump out satellites anywhere close to what's done from the ground?

I can't find any very recent numbers, but here's an example of what I've found both in emissions and potential emission sources. https://news.mit.edu/2020/emissions-ozone-cfc-chemicals-0317. I just don't see satellite reentry as the headline it's made out to be, plus we can find alternates that reduce it further.

I believe from memory (and I'd have to research this myself again) that while the ballots wouldn't change, whoever the GOP has running in his place would win the spot. You can't just win an election because your opponent disappears.

The polls were. Lesson being, there's only one real poll that counts.

Paywall, got a summary?

And assuming the topic from the link, is even very active commercial launching comparable to the rest of the emissions we're doing?

 

I have an older robot vacuum that has finally shown some age in its battery. The charger will charge for about 15 mins and then gets an error, but it's enough to do a decent vacuuming of the room if I charge then vacuum, then repeat once more. I can't leave it on the charger now due to the error repeating, so basically I run it dead until the next time.

So my question is, can I continue doing this since it works well enough, or is there potential problems/danger with the battery being at less capacity? I could buy a new battery, they aren't terrible in price, but if it works and is safe, why not continue what I'm doing until it completely gives out?
