Why is it so important to you that he gets credit for the vaccine when he was more than happy to disavow his administration's botching of other aspects of the pandemic response like testing. His exact words were "I don't take responsibility at all" and blamed (of course) Obama of all people. He only takes credit for successes and blames anyone but himself for failures. Our country is screwed because millions of people like you cannot acknowledge that, let alone call it a character flaw.

Why would you think the Trump administration's program for developing a COVID vaccine has anything valid to compare with the Biden administration? Were you expecting Biden to make them start over so he could try to do it faster? That's actually the kind of petty, self-sabotaging, ego-driven thing Trump would have done.

And the data that makes this a "fact" and not your opinion is.... where?

And because where income is high, cost of living is high, and the marginal cost of children goes from "investment in the future" to "big hole I sink money into".

And she's still insisting that the recovery should be on the state's dime.

I'm so glad Texas is getting what they voted for.

Their population absolutely dwarfs Canada and the US as well, so that isn't much good, is it?

BTW, remember the secret of Ti Kwon Leap- Anger is a weapon only to one's opponent.

I still think we need, given the microamps involved, a hamster powered cell phone charger.

Yes it is. Radioactive materials are made in the planet's core, and float up in the magma. Radon Gas is a normal and natural resource from decaying uranium.

It's as renewable as sunlight and wind.

"TDS" is simply the reflexive response when you can't defend him.

And the tragic thing about this is that the possibility isn't really that far-fetched, and indeed is precisely the type of thing the climate deniers would do to thwart climate science.

Actual slavery involves forcing people to work, and your comparison depends largely on pretending you don't understand this.

Difficult is not equal to impossible. Heat can be used to boil working fluids, which can be used to drive turbines, which can create energy, which can in turn be used to run AI chips, which give off heat, which can then also be harvested to boil working fluids...Not really a perpetual motion machine, but the inefficiency in the system can be used to suck more heat out of the heat pumps anyway. Inefficiency in this case is a feature.

My answer to environmentalists claiming this is "You first". Stop being hypocrites, eliminate your own fossil fuel usage- including wasting fossil fuels storing articles like this in data centers.

Would this be the same China that is building coal fired plants at a rate of 95MW a year?

Nuclear power is a renewable.
