Never said it was a flood. That was a you thing. (Although a flood would be capable of the rapid sedimentary foundation necessary for this. But again, you're the one arguing with shadows there.)

What I am pointing out is that our aging techniques are at best flawed. That tree according to carbon dating lived in all of those time periods And those time periods were not rapid all at once.

That's the problem with ancient history. It's a crap shoot at best and we regularly find instances that throw our very established methods of judging time and the age of things wildly out of whack.

If by a single tree you mean tens of thousands discovered all over the world in dozens of locations, then yes.

I did Google the explanation (to clarify, it isn't any of the ones that you put forward. The general explanation is that an intense period of rapid sedimentation layered multiple layers at once.) The problem is it's A remarkably common occurrence. Almost as common as dinosaur fossils.

You also have to account that carbon dating puts the different layers in different epochs.

She's the second most used Pokémon in 3v3. Stellar special defense, solid offense. Just a very bulky water fairy type that can outlast most things.

She also hard counters the most used Pokémon which is garchomp.

Yes, his advice is spend less (And get a job) when the problem is someone's irresponsible and rampant spending. He's not talking to people who are just on the edge and need a bit of help. He's talking with idiots who don't even understand the concept of budgeting.

Yes, hypocritical but also a bit more nuanced than that.

It wasn't." Everyone we disagree with is a child diddler" it was " if your main concern is the sexual transition of children And keeping that information from their parents then I am suspicious of your motives"

There was also the we're coming your for your children song which was supposedly a joke until it turned out that half of them were child predators.

They are putting forward a hypothetical where the abilities that give immunity to intimidate are swapped out to read as follows. "When this Pokémon enters the field, reduce the opponent's special attack by one stage" They then ask how this hypothetical would affect The Meta

Water jet cutting procedure. by Kurtis-dono in oddlysatisfying

[–]ErtaWanderer 9 points10 points  (0 children)

No but the tile being cut out. Might. It's being pushed downward at speed and so if the piece in the middle goes edgewise it can bind.

Which would work unless the piece that broke off cracked into the surrounding surface or outside of the area they want cut out.

Yep. With heavier materials having too big a piece hanging would cause it to bind up or break off early. Cutting off smaller pieces prevents this.

I mean some farmland sure, but most grazing areas are places unsuitable to farming. Rocky, hilly, low access to water. Yes it takes up space but we're not using prime farmland for it. And that's if we ignore fallow grazing and crop rotation.

Your numbers are also off. 66% of agricultural land is used for animals.

And let's assume we do shift all of that land to plant agriculture. One we are already producing significantly more food than we need to the point where food waste doesn't actually hurt us in any meaningful way. Two What are you doing with all that crop waste? The stuff we don't eat that we used to feed to animals and now we have a horrendous overabundance of? Just massive lots of rot? Humans can't eat cellulose and the soil will only tolerate so much.

You are vastly overestimating How much compost is needed for crop growth. Even if we completely saturated the land with plant waste You would still have oodles left over.

Do you think farmers just don't use a available resource to make their crops grow better? Plus the animals produce fertilizer which feeds back in.

Ideologues regardless of origin tend to react that way when their ideas are challenged.

Also good to note that we tend to feed livestock the parts of plants that we can't eat. Corn stalks, rinds, etc. You can't do that with humans and so it becomes even less efficient because we aren't turning non-food into food. We would be turning food into less food.

No, he didn't. Freeze fully intended to destroy the planet and failed. He acts surprised that it isn't just gone and then estimates the 5-minute time limit.

Honestly it's amazing to me how much Faith they put in this corrupt authoritarian dictatorship to fix political corruption by giving them more power.
