How about we both do the calculations and we cancel each others consultant fees?

This is also true for cars, but electric cars are viable even though its the same comparison between energy density. Would you be willing to have this conversation with actual calculations and specified arguments regarding the numbers?

I like trains and I'm not American. You brought up energy density as the factor preventing long haul. Please don't appeal to authority as the argument but rather state what you think the energy density needs to be and why to make electric long haul viable.

I'm curious what you think the energy density needs to be for it to be viable and why? The way I see it energy density is a very minor factor for this equation but I'm curious to hear your explanation.

I know that's true in the US, but do you have a source for Europe on that?

The ones who disagree just say that "is not clearly visible in the data, yet" for anyone wondering.

If you go by simple physics it's undeniable that it should be speeding up, there are just too many variations and the dataset is too small for some scientists to want to make such conclusive statements.

In the broad term I very much favour them. But when you actually read up on it a lot, like I have, the broad term loses its meaning and I always wonder what people actually mean by it when they say it.

Article 16.3

The family is the natural and fundamental group unit of society and is entitled to protection by society and the State.

I disagree that the family is the fundamental group unit of society.

Article 25.2

Motherhood and childhood are entitled to special care and assistance. All children, whether born in or out of wedlock, shall enjoy the same social protection.

I feel discriminated that motherhood and not fatherhood are entitled to special care.

There are many variations of human rights declarations. I oppose this one the most: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cairo_Declaration_on_Human_Rights_in_Islam

There are also specific articles in the universal declaration of human rights that I think are wrong

Just to take a jab at the US from a European perspective...

You don't have the right to bear arms in prison? I thought guns were sacred in the US!?

[–] MightEnlightenYou@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

Yeah, worked great so far!

It's illegal for you to sympathy strike and you don't have sector bargaining. The fact that I've never talked to an American who knows this and that a hundred year old law is what's stopping most of your progress is always sad to me. :/
