Vast majority, even.

700km/h would be about 200m/s in 2 seconds, so about 10g. Survivable.

Pity Webb couldn't be there.

30 is hot. 41 is incomprehensible. Shudder.

My coastal rainforest brain cannot grok.

I hope this is the kind of DC that will end up supporting sovereign infrastructure. Eliminating the USA from thr loop should be a good investment.

I've never heard of anyone getting one, ever. But I work at a university.

100%. I think just a vertical flip of the image would do it. Otherwise anatomically difficult to pull off.

That was a plot point in Cryptonomicon. And yeah the XFree86 docs mentioned it too...

3: off by one errors.

Had to be said.

It's mostly fine, depending on how your local place is set up. Ours can handle it, but for large amounts they recommend dropping it off at a depot.

Or into the compost. Putting organics in the trash smells bad fast.

I love municipal compost so much.

Do you mean Ontario?

The population disparity is too high. They wouldn't be joining us, in practice it would be the other way around.

Ottawa is out of touch enough with BC's needs, imagine rule from Sacramento.

If they were rare, they would be unbelievably expensive. We're so lucky they are cheap.

Sure. I mean, you could. Probably there are better sources, like construction waste, that you'd want to exhaust first, but I obviously haven't done a serious cost-benefit analysis, nor am I really qualified. My intuition is that you could do it but there are better uses of the time and money.

Relatively inert stuff in a landfill doesn't seem like the highest-priority use of the time and money. The resources used to scrap and recycle a wind turbine blade could probably be much better used for more consequential purposes.

"made mainly of carbon fiber, fiberglass, and balsa wood" from some random source. Doesn't sound like anything particularly toxic or difficult to source. I can't imagine putting them in landfill is a serious problem. So my response is "so what".

Alarmist, like a fire alarm. Much easier to turn it off. Don't worry about the smoke or crackling sounds, I'm sure it's nothing. Calm down, you're being hysterical.

This is what happens when your trade policy amounts to raw extortion.

Fuck em. They don't want negotiation, they want capitulation.

In English we have 'gave up the ghost' which easily could have come from German. Also applies mostly to machinery.

GISS. Pronounced jizz.
