“Feminists always”

TIL that I am also a freak.

Making a lot of assumptions there, buddy.

Remember, only a Sith will deal in absolutes.

What do you mean “too easy to piss off a German”, do you want trouble? I’ll give you some you lousy … samba dancer.

I feel you. I know how many hits I can get in just stabbing at unexpected moments at long range with my sword, with a spear it would be plenty easier.

Have you ever fenced against a spear?

Tough luck, this might affect his grandkid, not the kid. Epigenetic imprinting (the semi-permanent kind) is done during oogenesis, which if I am right occurs during pregnancy.

Context?

Well, it may not be a banger, but it certainly was a banger.

Ah, I was wondering where all the Karens went.

See, I mostly disagree with the hardcoe ‘atheims’ memes on here but this one … this one is nice. Good job!

Buddy, if this is your reaction to reading a humouristic headline, you need to touch grass.

I mainly agree, but it could be substituted. Various biomolecules are being investigated as a replacement substrate for established (petro)chemical processes. Part of the issue is, that you need to defunctionalise the chemicals which is the opposite of what petrochemistry currently does (which is adding functional groups as needed, not removing them).

This research, however, is stifled by the cheap Price of oil. I know an anecdote of Nivea pulling their funding into a similar project because the price ber barrel recently fell. The project was supposed to last around 5 years.

Why would you pick a submarine for civil purposes? Just use a “normal” freighter and “slap” nuclear power on it.

(Ignoring the glaring issues from nuclear power on land that would be exacerbated at sea)

Certainly, they’re the shit, but the energy capacity you mentioned is a huge issue. As I said in my other comment it should/could/has to be done, but it’s anything but simple.

Still leagues ahead of biomass. Don’t get me wrong, this is an issue that can be solved. Biomass can be converted to biogas which can be purified to produce methane (or you just burn biogas directly) which then in turn can be used for heat (or other purposes) - the problem here is the sheer amount of energy this requires. Yes, significant portions of the steel industry can be “decarbonised” (or at least I think so) but the effort is immense. Doable, necessary, but it will be a huge piece of work.

Eh, purity is a thing. Biomass is the opposite of what you want there, but it could be doable. I do wager, however, that the largest “climate cost” of steel comes from the repeated melting of the steel.

EDIT: It’s not thermocyclers.

I’m guessing it might be thermocyclers, I.e. PCR-machines.

You still need some consumables (esp. the proper primers), but the machine is entirely reusable. However, it is also a fairly basic and it sounds unlikely that Putler had a lack of thermocyclers.
