Yes, I would agree that most racists don't give a fuck. You are true to pattern. I notice you do not deny being a racist. Expressing it is supposed to be forbidden on this page, as being against the rules. But, since you "dgaf," I don't expect you to have any further reaction. Right?
Properly, the people, through their elected representatives.
Well, my wife has been a caregiver in hospice situations and knows about them professionally. Sometimes they can do much to reverse a declining trend. Your expertise is what? Prejudice? You have no credentials for the authority you wish to display.
Actually, I am thinking. I also have life experience. I have heard this claim all my life and have seen no evidence of a problem. Not one single person coming to grief from fluoride ingestion. It is a fact that "the dose makes the poison." No idiocy in referring to this firmly established principle. No one talks about fluorine levels in the blood, or when it becomes unhealthy. I find that fact indicative of a lack of "story." We are commonly told not to consume "excess" salt (sodium chloride), but does anyone pay attention? (I don't, by preference.) This seems to be the greatest public health hazard that does not show up anywhere except in baleful warnings. So, I'm questioning the received mythology of the past 60-or-so years. You don't like questions? I should just accept the mythology and shut up?
You need a test range where you can monitor the flight along the whole length of its trajectory. The Canaveral test range runs from Florida, to the north of the Antilles, and all the way into the bight of Africa. Lots of tracking instrumentation. (And, just to be clear, these test shots are not armed with warheads.)
No fault of the missile. In other contexts, this would be called a "no-test." Tricky business, testing, when the special test equipment interferes with test performance. An old problem.
I've read about this since the early 1960s, from the John Birch Society. My whole family drank tapwater, including my grandparents. People have died from a variety of natural causes, but nothing associated with fluoride poisoning, nor any diminishment of mental function. All my high school classmates are as sharp as ever (though we are dwindling in number).
I am inclined to think the whole issue is a dead letter. I've never seen any attributable malign effect. I suspect it is all a matter of the dosages being low enough not to be significantly toxic. After all, too much salt can kill you---and too little salt can kill you. But we still need salt.
All true...and it imposes limits on the practicality of the approach, typically huge rectenna arrays on the ground to capture the download. I don't know what "eclipse issues" you are thinking of. Not a problem with geostationary orbit. Not a likely problem with any other orbit (lots of space up there), but non-stationary orbits mean only temporary coverage of the delivery site. No feasible energy storage. (It's hard enough to get the power, without deciding not to use it.) Inherently a space weapon due to the necessary beam control functionality, a fact that hardly anyone appreciates.
That's the thing about racist attitudes. It lines you up with a stereotype.
Hospice is not a "deathpanel." My wife works in those environments. Some are better than others, but that is true of anything human. Please get that nonsense out of your thinking.
Exactly. And what is wrong with that? Nothing.
It can be if it does work. What have you against that? Is there some date on the calendar where you turn off the taps, walk in, and shoot him dead? One day it will be you.
Thanks for the decent response to a mortal challenge we will all encounter. Much more wholesome than the vulture-like rubbing of hands in eager anticipation of demise.
But nothing prevents it...and good for Carter if he is beating the odds. Hospice is only a regime for palliative care, designed to make the patient as comfortable as possible. Sometimes, people do so well under hospice that they "recover" and can resume normal life. (From my wife, a professional care-giver.)
No lasers or microwaves. Just matches. No space solar power (a dead letter since the 1970s).
It the ground intensity should go as the system brightness (total power) divided by the square of the line-of-sight radius (1/R^2). The spread angle is typically equal parts diffraction spreading and beam pointing jitter.
There is also an interesting relationship between the projection aperture diameter (D1) and the receiver diameter (D2), of (D1)(D2) = 4 L R, where L is the wavelength of the beam and R is the line-of-sight radius (assuming beam jitter = diffraction spreading). It drives you into very large D1 and D2.
Putin is correct. It is a lousy idea from the standpoint of operational security of control. You don't just let nuclear warheads float around in orbit, willy-nilly.
No. In the 1960s, the Soviets tested a Fractional Orbital Bombardment System (FOBS). It delivered a re-entry vehicle to a very-low altitude orbit and would de-orbit to engage a ground target in the usual manner of a nuclear warhead.
Oxygen has no role in a NUCLEAR detonation. They have two effects: (1) an electromagnetic pulse, and (2) an X-ray "slap" that can physically damage space objects.
Easier to conduct a direct-ascent attack. No warning. All happens within 200 seconds.
I recently read that supposedly he was enlisted and paid by the west to foment such a revolution, and the Russian FSB found him out. Kind of a righteous indictment, I would say.
As for the poor treatment of prisoners and flouting of legal norms, I will bow to the Biden administration's treatment of the January 6th hostages.
I will reiterate, for the sake of enlightenment, that in the modern day, "democracy" means "rule by Democrats." This is the code key that unlocks the panic and stridency on the left, who correctly perceive Trump to be the arch-enemy of this interpretation.
This is incongruous and grotesque...but strangely satisfying.
Actually, I fully agree with his point #5. A people will never pull themselves out of a problem if they wait for someone else to do it for them. You see a lot of this in Africa: criticism of the "muzungu" whites...but nostalgia for the better times when whites were running the show. And failure to recognize and honor their own role models, sometimes even running them out of the country because they dare to point a finger at the person in the mirror. (E.g., Baroness Dambisa Moyo, UK, who was essentially run out of Zambia because her economic analysis showed that the national economic strategy was doomed to failure.)
"They"? What you mean "they," white man?
My AT&T cellular coverage has internet running, and reporting on the outage. 75% of the network has been restored. Not only AT&T was affected.
