Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

    Solar power would be virtually worthless right now.

    The sun rises at 8am and sets at 4:30pm in Seattle right now.

    Now, in the summer? Pfft, you can't be rid of the thing.

    But I use way more electricity in the winter than in the summer (for heaters).

    So on topic: we need nuclear power, and lots of it. Tell the NIMBY queers to fuck off, I nominate my backyard for the next reactor location.

    Solar, Wind, and such are great but are subject to weather's whim. Unless some kind of storage medium is backing them up (and current battery technology isn't quite up to speed yet, I don't think).

    It would be awesome to have your whole roof a photovoltaic cell though, if for no reason other than to offset your power usage. I would especially like this, because I want my next car to be that Chevy Volt. (Or Cadilliac, as I heard it might end up being)

    Researchers have developed a hybrid device consisting of an array of silicon nanowires integrated with live neurons from the neocortex of rats. The device displays bi-directional communication between the biological and electronic components, and can be used to control the electrical activity of the cells.

    A friend of mine works on that neuro-technology. She went to work right out of her undergrad because of the work she did and the patents that are now in her name which make her indispensable, and exceedingly well paid.

    Israel has broken more UN resolutions and guidelines and such than any other nation, and what backlash/punishment have they had? Right of return for palestinian refugees anyone?

    We really need to inject the UN with some science.

    I thought having more snow would actually heat the earth up

    heat/light reflected off the snow heats up the atmosphere blah blah blah
    an increased albedo would (all other factors being equal in both scenarios) cause lower temperatures precisely because more solar energy is being reflected back into space. The atmosphere isn't warm because of incoming solar radiation, most it heat comes from heat radiating from land and water mass that has absorbed the energy from solar radiation. This is why coastal areas tend to have milder temperatures for their latitudes, because all that water acts as a heat buffer.
