To be or not to be, that is the question.

....and open up the article and find out the article is about the Magic 8-Ball

Or you could argue it was the nearly 70% cut to government spending at the end of the world war..... Although, quite possibly it was the fact that the US was the only industrialized nation on the planet that hadn't been ravaged by WWII? I'm guess that had more to do with it than anything else. The US rebuilt the world in the 50's and reaped the economic benefit from it.

All of it was virtue signaling to those in power. As soon as Trump won, they dropped it all like a hot potato. The next time a Democrat wins, they'll all be back in board.

Living in central NC, wondering if I need to move. We aren't that far from Richmond, VA.

If the lights go out tomorrow, my gold is worth something in my safe. Your bitcoin disappears into the ether.

Wish I could like this post. Bitcoin seems to offer nothing of value except itself as value. The truth is no one uses it as a currency, it's a speculative investment. I'll stick to my tried and true tulip bulbs.

I already talk to my phone for most searches.

I guess the world would rather live under the Nazi or Soviet rule? or perhaps starve to death? The US military has been responsible for the mostly global peace over the past 75+ years and during that time has been the worlds largest food exporter. I guess some folks have a problem with that. Without the US, and her pollution, the world would be a much worse place.

They actually did commit mass murder with their one child policy.

..it just so happens my room is 30 Kelvin. It's very cold in my room.

The most human right of all is the right to be born.

Right! I was thinking as opposed to the human generated slop that filled Medium before?

20 gigawatts of battery capacity is the same as the output of one nuclear reactor running for 20 hours. Battery storage is really no different than other grid scale storage. Duke Energy (my energy provider) has operated Bad Creek Hydro Storage since 1991. That's 1,065 megawatts of energy storage. Hyrdo is time tested and the expected lifespan of such a system is many decades. I've got nothing wrong with battery storage, but we really should be diversifying as much as possible.
