Remember when cell phones and WiFi caused cancer and headaches then boomers realised that they love internet and pocket computers and now radio signals are fine? Funny, that.

Megillah Gorilla posted:Would turbines be less dangerous if we didn't use the traditional shape? I seem to remember reading that having them rotate in the same direction as the wind, end over end, rather than perpendicularly to it, reduces the bird strike risk to virtually nothing. Dunno what that does for their efficiency though (as power sources I mean, not as bird mincers.)

"wind turbines are dangerous to birds on a large scale" is used in coal industry anti-wind propaganda and also isn't supported by the numbers so gently caress that line of reasoning

Since it's tax season can we talk about all the CHUDS and everyone else having sticker shock and finding themselves owned really hard by the "tax cut"? I got loving nailed this year thanks in large part to lovely withholding and the removal of a couple of State deductions I used to be able to claim. Anecdotally, just about everyone I know got a really rude awakening when they filed this year and basically what it seems like what this "cut" did was change the withholding percentages so idiots went "wow! I got an extra $74 this paycheck!" and got on board the Trump Train. Most of my friends are bitching about it and my MAGA coworkers are just silent when I bring it up. At least something shut them the gently caress up.
