It would be funny if it were true.

You can't hoard wealth and distribute it too.

The average republican is not super wealthy, of course, but they are manipulated and controlled by those who are.

He spoke at a demonstration. You linked his speech at the UN. Different things.

I could have stated it better. What I meant was that the fraction of kinetic energy that is taken from the wind is so small that the total kinetic energy in the wind is probably not the important factor that changes with wind speed. The dynamics of how the lift depends on wind speed is probably much more important.

It's much too late for that.

We don't directly harvest the kinetic energy. That increase probably has to do with how the wind provides lift to the blades. Of course, you couldn't keep increasing like that until the harvested energy is greater than the kinetic energy. But I'm sure at any wind speed we only get a tiny fraction.

Also deserts are not even nearly lifeless. A solar farm of the size needed would wipe out a lot of habitat.

The problem is, that's a very common phrase that is never used to mean what the headline means.

Except trump is a weakling and a coward. If you slapped him and there was no one around to protect him, he would beg and grovel and cry and offer you money to stop.

I would so love to have my phone and laptop run the same operating system. Would simplify so many things.

With Google attempting to further lockdown Android, the time is ripe for Linux Mobile. Projects like this can help make it a viable alternative.

Thank you so much to everyone working on this!
