Hechicera Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Link is over a year old, but I just ran into it. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/could-air-conditioning-fix-climate-change/ I read it and the only thing I could think was "SPOM? SPOM!". No weesewort's of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cpy Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 There are no free lunches in real world. Energy consumed to create fuel is equal or greater than energy produced so you'll just release more CO2 from "ecological" coal powerplants to air than you save from those buildings. Something to think about: if you reach relativistic speeds then time slows down, does it mean you have FPS drops IRL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ofc. For the observer it looks like it. For the subject (dupe) nothing changes afaik...so in the frame of reference my potato laptop is as good as any i9 Intel or amd at least for my dupes that is...I on the other hand perform a sudden shift in wavelength to the red spectrum as I get furious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never been that fast but I have been high enough for my FPS to drop I swear I was lagging so bad It took me 40 minutes to put on a pair of pants...
