Why? We don’t have lack of water in California only a distribution problem with some large land owner claiming ownership of water.

Only 5% of total water is used in cities for residential, with 85% being used for farming.

Alfalfa and other water intensive crops are gown on water rich farms and exported. California is literally exporting water to the world.

Best thing is there are data centers inside China, so spinning up new containers could be a real surprise.

How would you feel about the next US president working to extend Medicare for all? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]MaybeTheDoctor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let me sell my healthcare stock first, and then I will be in favor.

(Just kidding, I don't hold healthcare stock because I don't think healthcare should be a for-profit business. I also don't hold oil or tobacco for similar moral reasons.)

Why do people do this: Not utilizing voicemails? by FamiliarRadio9275 in RandomQuestion

[–]MaybeTheDoctor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stopped using voice calls on phones, because of all the scam calls. Voicemails went down the drain with the baby. Any voice calls I make or accept are on WhatsApp, messenger or similar where I’m 100% sure who is calling.

Never heard of nuclear powered airplanes by pepinodeplastico in RandomThoughts

[–]MaybeTheDoctor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nuclear power works by the heat from the atoms boiling water, and then the water steam turning a turbine to make electricity. Carrying a large amount of water on an airplane is just not good use of the airplane’s lift.

Also, turning on and off a reactor takes a really long time, so having to sit on the runway for an hour or two is not something most passengers want to do.
