Wind turbines used to absorb a power surplus?

Yawn. It has to be a very STUPID bird.

Neither do you. I am sorry to dent your denialism, but around 20 million birds a year have to die.

Out here where there are at the moment no cats at all, I am not inundated with them

Probably because I dont feed the weaklings that get fat fall off the bird table and cant fly because of laziness and obesity

Cataract surgery involves using a needle to emulsify and slurp out the old lens, and then uses another needle to inject the new artificial lens. It takes about 10 minutes.

No, there are really not

They arent starting from cold. They are running at maybe 80%. Responses to steam throttles are instantanoous

You missed steam out of that list.

Here they dint shoot any deer for a few years. I saw over a hundred in a herd. The next year they got professional hunter in to get them down to the 10-20 herd sizes.

They have destroyed about 80% of anything I ever planted.

Those aren't birds. They are social security scroungers

Depends on what you mean by romantic.

Most are into f****ng.

For some people, that is a component of romance.

For plenty its the f****ng that they are into, no romance involved.

Sometimes dead coyotes are hung off a fence on that theory. Other things too.

Genetics isn't that simple.

I think it is. We are now flooded ruled and shouted down by ArtStudents™

The economy and society will collapse under its own weight and there wont be any competent engineers left to fix it.

Times are changing. They even let wimmins be ingineers now.

Not gunna happen. There were enough engineers to fix the

2008 implosion of much of the world banking system fine.

At least we understand that critters that don't breed go extinct.

So the question is whether engineering talent is heritable. Of course it is.

And even people who can't spell.

So about 10 times too big to go in the vaccine hypodermic needle.

I think from recent events you will find no-one fixed anything in the banking system. In 2008 it was exposure to some Micky Mouse financial products that started the runs and 2023 it's likely to be exposure to the collapsing Micky Mouse cyrpto market.

Those pet chips were designed decades ago when mobile phones were the size and weight of a couple of house bricks and were limited in functionality. Electronics and nano technology has moved on considerably since then :)

Assuming there are genetic components in engineering talent (and I'm not saying there isn't), it's possible that epigenetic factors determine whether those genes will be expressed.
