It's fuel made from waste plastic.

So once the process is more refined it would be great, but it's clearly not ready.

Having seen recipes for mtn dew marinated chicken and kool-aid pickles, yeah I'd have to check too.

The fact that you even think that "both sides" is a valid argument, means that your opinion is literally worthless.

Because either you are intentionally arguing in bad faith and you know you're lying, or you actually believe that. Which means you lack the mental capacity to see something objectively.

To be fair, it was low pressure because it operated by creating a partial vacuum from condensing steam.

It's funny how they never expect the things they vote for to negatively impact their own lives, only other peoples lives.

The fact that they're surprised every time it happens is just sad, since it shows that they are literally delusional.

It's the conspiracy theorist mindset:

They're people who wish they were smart, and can't handle that they're not. So they latch onto ideas that most people agree are dumb. Then use that to convince themselves that they're super geniuses who have realized the truth of something that even scientists couldn't figure out.

Then when they're challenged with evidence or facts, they double down and start insulting or even assaulting people in response. Because they don't see it as evidence in an argument, they just think the other person is calling them stupid and that really strikes a nerve.

TL;DR: They're in denial and project their own self-hatred onto others.

Only a person who actually believes those net worth figures is stupid enough to say something like that.

The main deflector or deflector array is crucial for stopping microscopic particles from wrecking most ships at relativistic speeds, and is technically called the "navigational deflector" for that reason.

At sub-light speeds those same particles are barely noticable, if at all, when stopped by the normal shields, basic deflectors or even hull plates. Which why they don't modify it while at warp, and pretty much only use it while at sub-light speeds.

In-universe it was designed to serve multiple purposes and be used in research or defense of other ships. And I seem to remember there being some sort of lockout where the ship wont go to warp if it can't engage the deflector. Since even a small particle cloud could destroy the entire ship a fraction of a second after it set off.

It’s a link aggregator that finds an available file to stream to you from servers that already have the full file, which may or may not have been assembled from a legitimate source or torrent.

That's literally the argument they use for torrents as well. They don't host any material, just point to it. And they are still being taken down left and right for breaking some law or another in regards to that.

Having just looked through them all, they were fine up until the latest 8-9 versions, out of almost 40.

You have to remember that the people promoting this sort of thing never in a million years think it would affect themselves or their loved ones. They are 100% convinced it will be used to "punish" people, just not themselves.

You see it literally every time republicans implement things like abortion bans, detainment camps, child labor etc. And republicans start crying in the media and say stupid shit like "He's not hurting the right ones"....

TL;DR: English water and sewage is handled by private, for-profit, companies that have majority ownership outside britain.

Furthermore the current chairman of the regulatory comission has previously been accused of misusing funds for Network Rail, abusing staff, accepting what amounts to bribes, etc.
