morsma··on Analysis: Texas power outage leaves officials working political angles
Yes typically Gas generation are used in combination with wind power as their up and down cycle are fast compared to other sources. Secondly, Texas is overflowing with natural gas due to fracking.
morsma··on What went wrong with the Texas power grid?
We also have some of the most expensive power in the world. Kinda goes hand in hand it seems.

Fake news right here!

> media literary courses are required

Please provide evidence of this, I've never had such course.

Also, the media landscape in Denmark are more or less the same from a political point of view, and you're forced to pay for "DR" a public news broadcaster. It goes by "DDR" in right wing circles.

The Nordic isn't the paradise you dems believe.

I've lived in the states for several years.

Please explain...
morsma··on US Workers Are Highly Taxed If You Count Premiums
For me it's the opposite. I moved from Denmark to the US, and I pay around $400 in health insurance premiums (health, eye, and dental) for a whole family. In Denmark, only health is covered, so for eye and dental many go out-of-country to get it cheap.

The US is much cheaper for all health insurances, except if your poor. Obama tried to fix that, but made it worse and more expensive for everyone (socialism).

morsma··on AMD Responds to Intel's 9th Gen Benchmarks
Dual booting exists you know... I run a windows and linux dual boot setup at home. You're right with regards to AMD gpu's in that they're hassle free since kernel 4.15 (I have a Vega 56).

morsma··on Apple's best product is now privacy
As a very long time Android user (since HTC Hero), I've recently switched to the IPhone for the exact same reason. I was a big fan back then, but lately I'm starting to be put off by Google, for instance the late reveal of mettling in the US election etc. At least you gotta give Google for partially admitting it by removing the "Don't be evil" motto back in 2015. It's only MS, Apple or open source here from now on...

morsma··on Facebook finally hands over leave campaign Brexit ads
What about the effect Obama had, when he supported UK remaining in the EU? How many percent did his endorsement move?
morsma··on Facebook finally hands over leave campaign Brexit ads
Because all these things (Brexit/Trump) wasn't planned to happen, so they're in need of arguments why a fair democratic vote should be invalid. This is what's happening.
morsma··on The carbs-obesity hypothesis
I concur! There's really no debate whether it's carbs or not, rather, what kind of carbs. We're starting to see that fructose containing carbs, e.g. Sucrose, HFCS, etc. Are those that in the long run sets one up for metabolic syndrome and and the inevitable accompanying diabetes.

It also explains why cultures consuming relative large amounts of carbs in the form starch/glucose haven't had the issues that we're currently experiencing.

morsma··on Employers will do almost anything to find workers except pay them more
Every one is better off in Texas compared to NYC financially. Apples to apples. But it's true, if you insist on the Euro experience, you'll have to pay for it...
