if you use 100W of solar power, you dissipate 100W in deep infra red into space

If you have a sun nearby then will someone notice the lag?

Nothing wrong with some home grown logical analysis. That you are so close to the book does you credit.

Yes. Those are the book’s arguments. A counter-counter argument is a repeat of the same argument.

The 999 are going too overpower the violent 1.

3 body problem is a good book for thought experiments, but it didn’t really discuss the arguments against the dark forest hypothesis

• assumes universal hostility.

• Interstellar warfare is protracted and impractical.

• Ignores potential cooperation and ethical diversity.

• assumes aliens think like humans

We have only been announcing our intelligence for 100 years. It takes 100,000 years just to cross our galaxy. No-one knows we are here yet.

Drinking more water is the most effective way to prevent and manage kidney stones by diluting urine and stopping mineral crystals from clumping together

Syncing the footage to real world events was a masterstroke

As battery capacity increases those edge cases get fewer and fewer. But we will always need some fossil fuel equivalent.

The methane can come sustainably from landfill. It doesn’t need to be from dinosaurs.

No. Not baseline. Standby capacity for when it’s cloudy, still, dry and all battery capacity has been used up.

Maybe we only need natural gas for, say, 10 hours per year, but in those hours we really need it

I still want natgas for cold, windless winter weeks.

Maybe just an Adam Ant stripe

Didn’t scientists just prove a unified theory was impossible?
