Raldikuk posted:This is amusing because basically the opposite is true. If you don't need to earn a living then you can dedicate towards the career of your choice a lot easier. Most people in some way end up settling a bit because of the necessity of having a paycheck; if they didn't have that burden and could just focus on their career of choice they'd be golden. When these walking abortions talk about careers, they obviously don't really mean careers, but made up titles they give to each other as participation trophies.

PostNouveau posted:Yeah, there was essentially a work stoppage in Vietnam among the rank and file soldiers, and any officers who attempted to force them to march out deeper into the woods and find some Vietnamese people to fight would get hosed up. man imagine how horrendous it must have been to get drafted for vietnam. just forced to die in some hellhole jungle in a completely immoral war. no wonder that entire generation ended up being garbage

SniperWoreConverse posted:the reason zeppelin used hydrogen was because the US, through a quirk in geology, has a stranglehold on the planet's helium supply. This is in the form of helium that was formed by radioactive decay in the earth's crust and then became trapped in natural gas deposits. Other than smaller earth deposits that are out there the only way to get it is I think distillation of cryogenic atmospheric gas and this was so expensive zeppelin had to say gently caress it and use hydrogen. They found a bunch more helium in like, Azerbaijan I think? I remember they found a rich new deposit of it a few years ago so that's probably why it's not a million dollars a cubic foot already.

Also you can't get helium by distilling atmospheric gas, once helium is released it rapidly rises up and completely out of the atmosphere, in fact completely out of Earth's gravitational pull since it's not strong enough to retain the light atom and it's slowly blown away by solar wind. Once the helium on earth has all been vented, it's gone forever, not even transformed into something else like other resources are, just gone.

Ah, we can probably make more. Just put 2 hydrogens together, bam, helium

It's a great thing balloon manufacturers were lobbying the government to keep selling off the national helium reserve.

Luckily, all of the hydrogen bombs that will fall in the upcoming nuclear apocalypse should replenish some of the helium supply.

I don't see the big deal, once we crack sustained fusion we'll have all the helium we could ever need.

https://www.quora.com/Has-capitalism-really-lifted-people-out-of-poverty-Or-is-that-a-lie quote:...in the World Bank’s annual report in 2000, they actually reported that the number of people living on $1 a day or less continued to rise and world poverty was predicted to rise to 1.9 billion by 2015 which is hardly the story they were hoping for. quote:Continuing on the narrative of “economic growth not capitalism lifts people out of poverty” we can see that rapidly growing economies such as China, India, and Brazil are largely responsible for poverty reduction. India has been responsible for the largest poverty reduction in South Asia and Brazil responsible for the largest reduction in Latin America. China is largely responsible for the most poverty reduction in the world and they don’t follow a neoliberal model of economy at all. quote:What they also don’t tell you about poverty reduction is that people were never dramatically lifted into comfortable conditions with easy access to services. You could be lifted a few cents above the line and be considered ‘no longer in poverty’. The most dramatic increase was in Pakistan where it increased by almost a dollar.

Um actually it's four times the weight, because they both have negative weight on earth where weight is defined  spankmeister posted:I don't see the big deal, once we crack sustained fusion we'll have all the helium we could ever need. I used to think this for real until I found out proposed fusion plants would generate like, milligrams at a time. Fusion is stupidly powerful so you really don't need much material to generate a heck of a lot of energy.
