  • 😁

  • Worst voyeur video ever.

  • Worse than backwash. They drool in the trough. So much drool.

  • From water sources. There are only really a few diseases that can crossover though and most of those are already problems for humans in stagnant water (giardia and salmonella being the big ones). My horses were healthy and the water was changed often so it wasn’t a huge risk.

  • I grew up on a farm. I realized how differently city folk think about water when I drank out of the horse's trough by just dipping a hand in and drinking from my hand. For me that water's perfectly fine to drink since it got refilled daily and the horses seem fine drinking it. The look on my friend's face suggested that I had drank sewer water.

  • That only works if you're ashamed about rubbing one out.

  • This trap seems like something Sheogorath would set up.

  • So now we're saying that nobody who's not native born should be allowed in this country," he said.

    It’s so painful watching these idiots figure things out in real time. You supported a fucking racist who hangs out with racists. What did you expect?

  • The Republican also revealed he accepted nearly 20 complimentary trips worth more than $13,000 since 2021.

    Jeff Landry agreed Friday to pay a $900 fine

    Oh I'm sure that will discourage him. /s

  • No, wind gets a pass because it is literally just recovering solar energy from the planet being heated by the sun. So it's solar energy. There are no chemical steps involved to get to the energy and it's renewable. When did I say that we shouldn't have high level categories to help differentiate between concepts? I only said that I believe wind should be considered solar energy because it is. The other types you're referring to are many steps removed from just plain old energy transfer.

  • No, heat is just energy transfer.

  • There are chemical processes involved in that. Wind is just the sun heating up rocks and oceans and air.

  • Like it's a two week ban and I could hardly care but jeeze this feels like overreach.

    When you make a post about a ban a comment like this feels a little disingenuous.

    I agree with the mod that wind should be counted as solar since ultimately it is derived from the sun's solar energy hitting the earth. Really though we should just call them renewable energy sources.

    I also agree with you though, that doesn't seem like a comment worthy of a ban. I'd just wait the two weeks and not sweat it.

  • What’s going to be really fun is the giant hole the lack of tariff income blows in his already shitty budget. He was counting on that cash to offset his tax cuts for the rich. Get ready for some turbo inflation.

  • Uh congress couldn’t easily implement tariffs though. How would they muster 60 votes in the senate to break the filibuster?

  • This the type of shit that makes me believe in simulation theory. The one uncle tom acting motherfucker on the bench is actually named tom.

  • Someone from the FCC is going to show up pdq. It's really easy to triangulate signals. (This is the reason it sucks to be a radarman in modern warfare. whenever you're transmitting you're basically transmitting a huge "HERE I AM" sign to everyone with an antenna)

    You're never going to flood those frequencies except locally. Radio needs 4 times the power to go double the distance. It gets really crazy how much power you'd need not to mention the size of the antennas you'd have to have.

    Edit: I guess i missed half your post.

    First, is what this person claimed even a real thing?

    Depends what type of drone and what type of radar but it's plausible. Some radar and radio controllers operate on the same frequencies.

    Would naval radar take small, hobbiest-type drones out of the air?

    Again, it's possible it just depends on some factors that we don't know.

    If someone just set up an antenna in a suburban neighborhood and blasted out radar with the power of a "typical" US Navy ship or station, what effects would it have on the neighborhood?

    It depends which band they use for the radar signal. Some bands interfere with local things like wifi others not so much.

    Would it damage any other devices, such as TVs or computers?

    Not likely anything permanent. Especially with how little power you'd be able to muster.

    What effects would it have on nearby humans? Would people in the house be burned?

    No effects on the humans since it's not ionizing radiation. No one would be burned unless they touched the antenna while it was transmitting. That could lead to an RF burn.

    How much power would be required?

    More than you're going to be getting from the house mains if you want to go past a few miles.

    How long would it take the FCC to determine exactly which house had done it? How would they pinpoint the location?

    See my answer above.

  • You could watch episode 5 stand alone and it would be a complete story. You might not understand every little nuance (like Morrow being a cyborg and not a synth) but you'd still have a really awesome Alien movie.

  • Agreed. That shit was fire.
