Yes both are made up. As everything we use to count or measure is.
However it depends how they were made up.
Fahrenheit was set to 0 on the lowest temperature someone could achieve at time. And 100 was set to the body temperature of the human body. Totally two comparable points of measurement.
Celsius uses the melting point of water as 0.and then uses, revolutionary, the same water when it changes its state from liquid to gas.
Are we talking about British, American or sea miles?
Hey I mean on first glance it just looks fine.
Then you notice the cars can’t leave.
Then the bedroom goes into the garage. Then you can’t enter the dining hall except through the front door.
Then the bedroom where you walled in your child without any way out…
Usually the reason for war are,
Money (stupid because no war made profit for any of the participants)
Power
More power
Resources
More resources
Because the president is a stupid idiot
I had to tell the ai to reduce the comments it made. Since it was bunch of not important information.
I mean obviously travelling fast is costing money.
But walking is free. Except for food.
Amd you could hire on a ship to work. It will take a few months until you get where you want to be. But you earn money while doing it.
CDs used to scream. You needed to double the audio volume to hide the read cycles on tomb raider.
Which is what shocked me. I can understand that there are a few foul eggs in politics and if they take the wheel shits going down.
But since his second term literally nobody did stop any illegal shit from him.
The whole system is corrupt and broken. Nobody dares to defy the president even if they are supposed to!
It comes down to the definition of MAGA supporters.
Let’s say everyone who voted for Trump gets deported.
Now basically half or rather one third of America is gone… Well crime rates will drop definitely.
Additionally, why it is stupid to build new nuclear plants (keep the old ones as long as the maintenance is not too high).
If you now decide you need 1 GW in 10 years Then you can plan your nuclear power plant and start to build it. However as we know it will now take 30 years to build it and costs 10 times as much, while your demand is now 4 GW.
Also what do you do in the meantime? Hope that the power is enough for 10 years?
Nuclear is expensive, not scalable, and takes way too long to build.
It is pretty safe. Especially new reactors. Also the atomic waste should be recycled in different nuclear reactors, which can use it as fuel, but those are still in research.
Yeah Germany fucked it really hard.
Going away from nuclear without a good plan b to replace the power was stupid.
We basically replaced nuclear power with wind and solar, but the new power demand that was coming since the turning off of the nuclear plants, was achieved by building gas turbines. So fossil fuels again.
And now our energy minister is a lobbyist from the gas energy sector…
France is heavily subsiding nuclear power.
Without it, it would be the most expensive one.
I am all in for nuclear power, as long as it is waaaaay cheaper than it is right now.
Even buying the uranium is today more expensive than building a solar plant. (compared to resources per power generation)
Yeah because companies in the US exploit everything and everyone until they get stopped (which they don’t)
And probably because fossil energy gets subsidised heavily to compete with renewable energy. So on your electricity bill the fossil is cheaper but your taxes are sent there ten times.
Well currently the US is fucked anyway
Most expensive way of heating water
Europa has as far as I know only 1 litre Tetra Pak milk (non see through) or 1 litre glass bottles (reusable).
It is better because it uses 2 times water as reference point.
Not one thing and then a completely different one.
We could for example set the 0 degrees at the freezing point of alcohol and 100 at the boiling point.
Or 0 at the boiling point of argon and 100 at the temperature it turns into plasma.
Both of these fictional scales are better than Fahrenheit.
