In places with “hard” water (lots of calcium) you tend to get a calcium plaque in the pan after several years. It will absorb any iron in the water and turn brown.
It’s pretty much a rock growing on the porcelain. A brush won’t move it.
Yeah it’s the common sense stuff we all know to be true. “Save and invest your money! Compound interest magic! Investments increase in value!”
IIRC he makes a case for ripping off his employees. Justification is that if he have them more money they would just waste it, but he will invest it.
So, ah, that’s not how that works.
If he “goes bust” and can’t make repayments the bank will take his cars and silver and gold.
This guy is a great author, and those four words “rich dad, poor dad” are masterfully crafted. The book basically says borrow money to buy houses not boats. It’s not revolutionary, it’s just packaged in a way which is appealing to… poor dads.
Yeah I don’t like auto upgrades. Everyone says it’s fine but that’s not my experience.
My stuff isn’t public facing so I’m not worried about 0-days
I think that’s exactly what’s happened with Trump, is that deviance has been defined down in the sense that there’s so much focus on, it’s almost like an overload of sorts. The result is, you just don’t see it — it’s almost like he’s kind of normalizing this on some level. Even as outrageous as he can be, it’s been very difficult, I think, for people to maintain a consistent vigilance and see the threat that he represents because it’s kind of overwhelming, really, in many respects.
Precisely why this article shouldn’t exist. This article is normalising the behaviour. Reporton what he does, not what he says.
An expert hired by the Taipei, Taiwan-based Wisdom Marine Group “is working diligently to create contingency plans, arrange for a firefighting team, and ensure the necessary equipment is in place,’ the group said in a statement.
Yeah right. They’re frantically trying to figure out how to dump the container overboard and whether the penalties would cost less than losing the boats cargo.
Sure mate, I guess the question of whether it’s authoritarian is subjective. Suffice to say rationing would be daft. What about roof top solar?
A very obvious example of post hoc ergo propter hoc. I’ve never heard anyone believe that, certainly not a majority.
What a silly thing to say.
I think you’d be hard pressed to find someone who doesn’t want to use less power.
I suspect what you really mean is that you want to reduce power requirements by some authoritarian policy.
Well how else would they get chopped up by a wind turbine?
Sure ok. This guy drives Australian road trains. Typically 15 axles, 58 tyres.
Last night someone was telling me that the resin they use to make the blades deteriorates over time and covers the area in microplastics. Oh and each turbine needs 40 tonnes of cement which is not carbon neutral.
This is heresay and supposition but… I suspect the Columbian government is trying to figure out how to secure the value represented by the find, and the archaeological angle is one way to do that.
I don’t know anything about Columbia but I assume there’s some corrupt government officials there somewhere. Billions might not be a lot when talking about a country’s budget, but this isn’t part of their budget. Any gold that makes its way into someone’s pocket is fair game.
Again supposition but… I wonder whether Spain would have any claim on it if it wasn’t considered archaeologically significant.
Hmm, maybe… but I’m certain that everyone commenting in this thread does have a back account.
