GLOBE CRACKER ADMIN <WEHACKYOURWIFI@GLOBE.COM>: Nov 15 11:27PM

Get globe wifi and have your connection hacked by their bullshit
modems/dns filtering. crap,crap,crap. I am getting wifi nearly for free.
I would NEVER pay Globe for internet. Try PLDT fiber MUCH better.

Standard 737? Of course.
 
737 Max?
 
Kinda funny how most people don't think of what plane they are flying but everyone has heard of the 737MAX and no one wants to fly on one.

Seattle is just as bad these days. The mayor proposed the same thing a
couple weeks ago...

Well genius, do give us your plan to solve the problem.

Ain;t that the truth. Though sometimes I am surprised. For example when
I heard that a city councilman argued that the city can't hire a power
washing company to wash the excrement from the homeless off the streets
because it would be racist, I figured that must be CA. Turns out it
was Seattle. In case you're wondering how that could be racist, I couldn't
fathom it either. The stupid lib argument is that it would be racist
because back in the 60s water hoses were used to push back civil rights
demonstrators. Never mind that was FIRE HOSES and this is power washers.
 
This natural gas thing is pretty dumb too. Starting with the fact that
most of these residences burn the majority of the gas when the sun isn't
shining. So, where is the energy going to come from? The same bunch won't
build nukes, which alone pretty much discredits the whole world coming to
an end soon argument. If the planet is in even a fraction of the danger
the global warming proponents claim it is, then we should be go full tilt
on nuclear. Even if there is a accident, compared to global disaster
and extinction it would pale in comparison.

First, define the problem. Then assess how much people are willing to
sacrifice to solve the problem.
 
It is clear to me that the underlying problem is that we have expanded
the world population too much to be sustainable at this level, much less
any constantly-increasing level above current. My plan is to cut the
number of children being born so the world population will shrink to a
level that is sustainable. Restrictions on the number of children a
couple can have was tried in China, and worked to some extent, but was
deemed socially unacceptable.
 
As for the specific issue of natural gas, banning its use is NOT a
solution at all! Replacing all that gas use with electricity means
electric production will have to be significantly increased. In the
near term, until wind & solar with adequate storage is practical on that
scale, additional electric production will be via burning natural gas.
A gas furnace in the home is 95-98% efficient. Producing electricity
from natural gas is AT BEST 50% efficient. So banning home use will
actually increase consumption!

Perhaps change the way the sun works. Altering the laws of physics
might also be helpful. Easiest, although less possible, would be
slapping some common sense into a lot of people.
