America could use some Cheetahs if you ask me. That is what pronghorns are for right?

Wolves are some of the most intelligent hunters that can be found. They have wonderfully complex social structures, and the method of attaining status is fascinating. They also have systems of relationships with other animals.

I will quote the best part of that article:
 
"Ravens - One of the most fascinating relationships between animals is the one that seems to exist between wolves and raven. The raven, scavenger of food of all types, will often follow wolf packs in hopes of morsels of food. and wolves have learned to watch for circling ravens as a sign of possible food below."

Well, my hope is that most people would recognize how dumb it sounds as a feature, not a bug. Makes you recognize and appreciate the romance influences and whatnot.

This is Anglish, an attempt to create a purely Germanic English in response to the high percentage of Romance Language vocabulary in English (about 60-70%).

What these fucking peasants don't realize is that if your bank is a gold-house or your Political Action Committee is called an althing, you're gonna sound like a pretentious idiot. "I'm forward-thinking on taking a trip to see my elder-mother" Fucking stop.

"One health" sounds retarded.

Valerian and The City of a Thousand Planets
 

 
In a glorious pan-galactic, hyper-industrialized Communist utopia where all work is done by robots and all humans are required to serve in the military to serve the purpose of bringing more territory into wondrous Socialism, all species are equal, except for one alien species who attempts to become a little more equal.
 
This race, led by Jabba the Hutt a totally original and unique character have been tricked by the dark time-travveling wizard Adam Smith's evil magic into believing that Capitalism will bring them good things, (when in reality the evil Scot plans to feed them into his giant soul-to-haggis converter and take over the nation as the great Merchant-Khan, perish the thought). They begin smuggling vast quantities of Adamantium-Krypton, to destabilize the economy and become wealthy.
 
Returning after completing a long mission to extinguish the last traces of Capitalism known to exist in the galaxy, two individuals of the few pure Russian bloodlines remaining after The Great Trump War of 2017, receive visions from the Force Ghosts of Stalin, Lenin, and Marx-Yoda. These heralds of class equality tell them of the impending doom to their great system, and our heroes decide to take action.
 
This movie is an action-packed masterpiece great for young children and/or re-education programs.

That would explain the absolute reverence they have for swordsmiths.

Mother of God. This scares the hell out of me.

Edge alignment is very important to reducing the radar cross section of your polearm.
 
 
 
 
 
What?

I've been watching more of his videos, and the shit he does is impressive.

Holy shit:
 

I think that the people in both these articles are of the same strain, and that they'd jump at the opportunity to permanently separate all predators and prey because they feel bad for the deer. They think that to avoid the extinction of endangered animals like the rhino and tiger we should start crucifying all, (and I mean ALL), hunters, when the obvious solution is to domesticate them.
 
Edit* Both the animals and the hippies, the latter as slaves bred for working on the oil rigs of the Trump caliphate.

They... they realize that if deer aren't hunted, due to the lack of predators they'll enter a boom-bust cycle and suffer even more, right?

Yeah, it hurts because he's not even fleecing anyone of their precious dollarbucks with this nonsense.
 
If you're going to spread bullshit, at least have the common decency to rob people while doing so.

Colli, I think you are destined for better things than this forum.  Or maybe worse things. It's hard to tell.

Utopian cult's usually end up as a means to have sex with a lotta different women. Leave it to a German to start one where he winds up eating the abomination that is coconuts. 

I hypothesize that hippies are aware that the policies they agitate for will cause massive destruction and suffering, and they continue to so agitate because they hate nature, they hate the environment, they hate humanity, and they hate all that is good, beautiful and true.  Obviously, they claim otherwise, but this is because they cannot but lie.  To lie is to reaffirm their foul, pitch-stained faith, which is allegiance to Angra Mainyu the father of lies and darkness.  To deceive, to cut life short and to snuff out beauty are their sacraments.  The light, the truth and all that is pure and wholesome (e.g. police batons and gamma rays), that is what they fear.
 
But this is only a hypothesis.

Yeah, FUCK hippies, they are dirty, smelly, awful people. 

One of the many issues facing nuclear power in the US is economics. Once operational, nuclear energy is quite cheap in terms of $/MWh. However, the startup costs are enormous, which results in the overall cost of power going up. In an environment like today, where there's cheaply available natural gas, nuclear power becomes quite unattractive, especially with all the extra taxes levied on it and public fears.
 
This article has some good info; http://www.world-nuclear.org/information-library/economic-aspects/economics-of-nuclear-power.aspx
 
One interesting aspect which I first heard today is that the inclusion of renewables in the energy grid hurts nuclear energy. Nuclear plants are best run at a steady power level, providing base load. However, renewables such as wind and solar provide wildly varying amounts of power depending on the weather conditions or time or day. As a result, the nuclear plant is forced to vary its power level, running less efficiently. For reasons that I'm not 100% sure of, gas and coal plants can respond to variations in base load better, and so are more economic.
 
There's a couple ways I could think of to get around this. One is mass production of standardized reactor designs, I believe there's already been a lot of work on that front. Another is putting multiple reactors in the same plant; that article I linked says the Chinese estimate you get a 15% cost reduction (in $/MWh) by putting two reactors on the same site instead of separately.
 
I also heard that before building wind and solar was the cool thing to do to score political points, hydro and geothermal were the big renewable energy sources. Because they were economically viable, not because of hippies. Hydro being economically viable is obvious, but I'm more curious about geothermal. It seems like a pretty good energy source to use (where available).

I've been meditating a lot lately on humans that I hate.  I would say "people I hate," but once I take to hating a someone enough I de-classify them as a person.
 
I've been focusing on hate more because I've realized that there is no point in marinating in negative emotions.  What I had mistaken for righteous indignation was really jealousy.  I'm not angry at the fraudulent because I hate fraud; I'm angry because they're talentless hacks and I could do a far better job.  But I'm lazy, so you, my talented reader, you must do a better job, and become a more ravenous, vicious, and unstoppable leech than ever these mediocre reprobates could dream.
 
I got the idea when I was reading the latest drivel from our favorite poly sci majors, and I realized that the authors are fundamentally parasitic con artists, and, more to the point, half-assed ones.
 
The article is only worth reading if you want to heckle it.  It has no factual content.  The funniest part is probably where they're talking up the threat of firearms made on 3D printers, and then bring up the Ghost Gunner, which isn't a 3D printer.  It's a fucking mill.  You know, an example of that old-fashioned subtractive manufacture that's supposed to be obsolete now.  This is as intellectually honest as hyping the threat of being stung to death by zebras in the streets, and pointing out that tapirs will bite your fucking arm off as evidence of the severity of the threat.  I am, of course, heartened to see that these worms have doubled down on their claim that 3D printing is somehow applicable to clandestine manufacture of nuclear weapons, and are, as before, aggressively misunderstanding fundamental facts about isotope enrichment.  If there's anything that these scum are good at, it's ignoring basic fucking nuclear physics.
 
But other than that, it's not a particularly slick attempt to sew panic and profit thereby.  The best possible result from this sort of scaremongering is that some useless government regulatory agency will be set up to strangle 3D printing with useless regulations.  This useless agency will have some number of jobs that will be filled with poly sci majors and other unemployable refuse.  Anyone employed in this hypothetical useless agency would work nine to five in a cubicle, watching whatever their favorite deviant sort of porn is, calling in sick about a third of the time, and occasionally writing internal correspondence that will be beautifully devoid of meaning.  Is this sort of soul-raping mediocrity anyone's idea of a big steal?  Because if getting a fake job at a fake agency to police a fake threat is your notion of making it, please enclose yourself in a running incinerator.  You have some sort of pathogen that causes you to aspire to being a moderate nuisance, and that sort of plague needs to stop now.
 
The problem with these people is that their lies are small.  As we all know, big lies are better than little ones.  Don't stretch the truth; snap it right the fuck off.  The only thing standing between you and gigantic yachts made of cocaine is a sentimental attachment to the truth.  The lord of this world will only reward you fully if you embrace him fully.  Highly successful liars don't embroider the truth, they dispense with it entirely.  Consummate your marriage to darkness and falsity, and receive glorious rewards.  Don't say that the Eisenhower administration should have been more aggressive in defense spending and research.  Say that the Soviets have more bombers and more missiles.  You'll get to be president of Camelot, fuck Marilyn Monroe and will be spared the indignity of old age.  Don't say that 3D printing could change the way nuclear weapons are made in the future.  Claim that the Iranians and North Koreans, and hell, that the South Africans all made their nuclear weapons by using 3D printers.  When asked for evidence of your nonsense, point to the South African invasion of Sudan.  Say so with absolute arrogance and an unshakable air of moral superiority.  If you are loud and persistent enough, and lie outrageously enough, Satan will come through.
 
Don't shill for big coal companies by claiming that coal gasification technology will improve atmospheric conditions.  That's only stretching the truth.  You've got to go all the way, and just burn regular coal that you painted with Elmer's glue.  Your enemies will end up under review, and you'll get millions in tax credits.  Satan delivers.  Praise Satan.  But you have to be willing to go all the way with Satan.  Satan despises spineless, cowering wretches who sin a little to get ahead but still consider themselves fundamentally decent people.  Satan came through for the solar roadways bastards.  Satan came through for Leroy Jenkins.  Trust in Satan, and you will excel.  Don't you trust Satan?  Do you think that Satan is ignorant of your duplicity?  You cannot serve two masters.  Drink deep or taste not.
