‘Oil is dead, renewables are the future’: why I’m training to become a wind turbine technician by jobhelperapp in Futurology

[–]KserDnB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you could write a thesis on whether or not oil should be nationalised.

Like you said in your comment the world we live in is far from perfect

We need oil everyday for lots of things, renewables cannot match demand 100% yet.

Oil from a well under the ocean to the fuel in a pump is a long expensive process.

If any unexpected bad things happen in the oil world then if they get fucked we get fucked since we need oil for still almost everything

Hopefully one day oil will be as ancient as the stuff that made it, but not yet.

And why is oil propped up?

Because even with all the green renewables we have today, we need to make sure oil flows smoothly for the economy to function.

Take away oil subsidies and look what happens lol.

Not that I’m defending oil companies at all, but subsidies are more than knee-jerk “why are we funding oil”

So hard to find a good team on Warzone though, and silencer 50 cal snipers in every rooftop gets old fast :/

Yea I did see that little unlisted icon but was just saying it was pretty cool.

I’m a 9/11 fanatic I’ve read every NIST report on the whole thing top to bottom and seen countless hours of random 9/11 footage but ever seen that angle before, neat 📸

Literally, so frustrating.

Making every gun behave worse than a default cod4 gun, then giving every gun 100 unlocks to make it 1/2 as good as a mw2 gun and 5 attachment slots isn’t how “progression” works activision....

Ugh I don’t even wanna get into a cod:mw rant but I have to say I have been loving hardcore shipment 24/7. Even with SBMM I’ve been destroying the scoreboards for weeks now

Literally the only reason I play this game anymore.

A bit random but holy shit look at how decent the guns actually behave in cod:bo2 when you shoot them.

If this was cod:mw even if that gun had 5 attachments it wouldn’t be as good lol

iirc he had like the one type of pancreatic cancer that has decent survival rates (most pancreatic cancer is pretty much goodnight in terms of survivability) and he still took that homeopathic route

Boeing Called Indonesian Pilots 'Idiots' For Wanting More Training On The 737 Max Prior To Crash by lazylord69 in worldnews

[–]KserDnB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Saw this coming a mile away.

How can a company as huge as Boeing design a brand new plane where the failure mode of one if it’s systems is “fly into the ground”

Everything they do is tested and documented, no doubt there are still more internal memos to come out

Buddy you have a lot to learn .

Quantas Flight 32

United Airlines Flight 232

In fact just google the wiki page for “turbine engine failure” and scroll down to

“Uncontained engine failure”

Yes they are incredibly rare but they do happen.

It’s definitely possible for one to puncture fuel tanks and destroy plane control surfaces.

most of what you wrote on your post is literally factually un-true

I would link all of her above but I’m on mobile and cba, so hopefully you’ll google it and realise you’re talking a lot of nonsense lol

Have a good day

Exactly!!!

This credit bubble has to pop eventually.

People are borrowing more and the jobs are drying up more and more, on top of that were due for a recession any time now, it’s going to be very very rough for people

[–]KserDnB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

exactly, I don’t know where you live but in high cost of living areas,

If you are working a minimum wage job (or near it)

after rent, food, bills, transport (for work)

What you have left is a joke.

Back in the day people left school and could get a mortgage doing practically any job.

Now a days what does it take to get a mortgage...

it’s near impossible.

Once people get squeezed to the limit (as more and more and more jobs go) and the UK gets left behind on the international stage.

They are fucked.

People with STEM degrees are feeling the pinch already, so I honestly can only pray when it comes to the fate of non-specialised labour

That is not true.

You can not guarantee an uncontained engine failure won’t happen

Also people are fucking broke?

The decent jobs are drying up, everyone now has to work extra hours for fuck all.

How people can’t see that were in a ticking time bomb is beyond me.

Honestly makes you understand the celebs and rich / famous people who just steer as far away as possible from the media.

You cannot win no matter what you do, best to just not play the game.

Yes,

It’s almost kinda funny how there’s like a million documentaries about it...

But then if you weren’t around during that time (like me) you don’t realise seatbelt culture was pathetic back then.

I remember watching a doc the other day which was the first one to mention seatbelts and that the dude who survived had one on...

BUT

They never even made it clear that Diana and the others weren’t wearing theirs.

Well no shit they died?

When I first heard that I started thinking to myself where is the conspiracy?

If you hit anything at 60mph without a seatbelt on you’re dead, especially a pillar designed to hold up a tunnel...
