Hummelgaard evidently attends the same MENSA meetings as the ex-PM of Australia, Malcolm Turnbull, who commented in 2017 on the very same topic: “The laws of mathematics are very commendable, but the only law that applies in Australia is the law of Australia."
Toilet paper. During apocalyptic scenarios, it's worth is apparently uncountable, so I will be able to trade it and live a life of opulence.
Replacement theory based on politcal views? That's a hot take.
Just delete your account already.
Because the outcome is a lot worse for society than unpaid rent if they don't have a roof over their heads.
New Zealand really loves to chase the wrong end of the stick and focus on benefit-bashing. The reality is that there's a much higher magnitude of tax fraud than there is benefit fraud, so how about we focus on the big ticket items first?
The tariffs would be on Denmark or even possibly Europe as a whole.
While I get where you're coming from, I'm of a very different opinion.
The whole Republican movement is paid for by backers that need consumers to bleed dry. The whole machine is based on having lower income people needing to spend money to get by, and to form their tax base. You take away the consumer and the worker, you take away their power. Kids are the next generation of consumers, and add a huge amount to family consumption even before they are born, so the effect will be noticeable well within four years. You only have to look at the sentiments from the Russian government regarding having children after they've sent all their men away as cannon fodder - this comment would get me fined or imprisoned there.
All that said, power to those who choose to have kids, but it shouldn't be considered as any sort of boon to society. Humanity functioned with less people previously, and can easily do so again if we unsubscribe from the infinite growth model. With the climate crisis we find ourselves in, it's also possibly the best mitigation route.
I do agree with you on the adoption route and hope many more people consider the option.
Corporations need consumers (constant growth model). Military needs more living soldiers.
Flooding the batteries with water is the best way to put out a lithium-ion battery fire.
You're wrong. As a New Zealander (where our conservative government bent the rules to make him a citizen), I can only emphasize how strongly I will care if that giant piece of shit moves to reside in my nation. I'm not negating your point (I upvoted you) and I don't blame you for wanting to lose him, but just because you shovel your shit elsewhere doesn't mean it don't stink.
The emergency generator for all vessels is typically tiny compared to the standard generators (of which you have multiple, maybe 4 on this ship).
It's basically just there to keep the emergency lights on and any other equipment you need to work to get everything else back up and running.
Unfortunately her book only appears to be available with DRM
