>I’m old, so won’t see the benefits of this I’m sure

you won't see it because you'll be enjoying one of those lovely blackouts we'll get when we turn off all the AGRs and didn't build more nuclear

even worse than that is how the sports get blocked out depending on who has sold what rights to who.

Eg . the uk premier league has sold the rights to uk teams to sky and bt but sky and bt won't always show all 10 of the days games.

so you can be in the situation where your team are playing a game you can't get tickets to[all sold out] that you can't pay anyone legally to watch. yet you go on holiday to Europe and every bar will have Bein or ESPN or whatever showing every.single.match. live

>This presumes doctors practicing medicine 2.0 have any effective treatment. For the flu, sure there is tamiflu; or COVID, paxlovid;

don't know if you were being intentionally sarcastic when naming those two as effective treatments

>How effective is Tamiflu? Unfortunately, the effectiveness of Tamiflu is marginal, as it cannot “cure” the illness. Most studies have shown that the medication will reduce the length of symptoms by only 12 to 24 hours, and if started after two days of symptoms, it does not help at all. It is important to keep effectiveness in mind, as expectations for Tamiflu are often very high and, frankly, overhyped.

>Paxlovid does not significantly alleviate symptoms of COVID-19 compared with placebo among nonhospitalized adults, a new study published on April 3 in The New England Journal of Medicine found.

The results suggest that the drug, a combination of nirmatrelvir and ritonavir, may not be particularly helpful for patients who are not at high risk for severe COVID-19. https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/study-shows-nirmatrelvi...

>CONCLUSIONS

The time to sustained alleviation of all signs and symptoms of Covid-19 did not differ significantly between participants who received nirmatrelvir–ritonavir and those who received placebo.

weird how Harris is so in favour of my body my choice but not like that.

Green energy is great. Going really well in the uk. Super cheap with all those subsidies……………… I mean contracts for difference we pay for it.

>The UK had found a profitable niche as the transatlantic hub of finance and commerce, and threw it out the window in a fit of nativist pique over the wrong languages being spoken on street corners.

But we’ve imported millions of people that speak different languages since 2015 , why hasn’t line gone up?

>Tax based on weight

Ooooohhhhh and that just makes all the EVs more expensive than they already are.

> In the UK - even at the 'worst' public charging, mile for mile - it is still cheaper to charge up than to drive a petrol or diesel car - and that isn't taking into account the reduced running costs of an electric car.

X.

BP currently charge £0.65 per kwh and if a car gets 4 miles per kwh the you’re paying 16.25p per mile

So my car getting thrashed at 42 mpg using £1.36 Costco petrol costs about 14.7p per mile

And that’s not taking into account any of the finance , insurance or anything else.

Or that fuel tax is about 80% of the petrol cost.

Nice try Sandia guy who forgot to redact this original picture.

If wind power is so cheap why are we subsidising it so much?

I'm sure a 3 grand leaf or a 16 grand Tesla will have a tip top battery able to provide years of V2G

I can put 12w through a lighting cable. That’s fine for most if not all of their iPhones and iPads. Hell it’d be ok for my MacBook

Wait why are you running a heat pump for the pool in the summer?

Ben Rich talks about how much flight computers cost per pound in his memoirs. Can’t find the quote though as I’m out and iBooks says all my books are broken.

>parachutes

Very easy and simple demonstration though. With a high confidence value.

Whether masks make a 1% or 0.07653 difference or whatever is very difficult.

is this not the most VC company ever. Take something simple like a rona test , complicate it and add unnecessary electronics, then sell for 10 times what the simple one goes for. Bonus points for leveraging the one "working" product you have with a promise for multiple products in the future. hell if they'd have added AI and blockchain to the mix we'd have a bingo!
