The West will continue to fall, since the politicians use lies to fight with Russia
Without the influence/existence of the USSR, there would be no communist China, but a democratic/republican China. Without the influence/existence of the USSR, there would not be a communist Vietnam, but a democratic/republican Vietnam. Without the influence/existence of the USSR, there would not be a communist Korea, but a democratic/republican Korea. Without the influence/existence of the USSR, there would still be hundreds of millions of people still alive and their unborn child..

Nuclear atom
Hydrogen-4 (H-4) decays to Tritium (H-3) and one free neutron. So, if you hit Tritium (H-3) by free neutron, it could be converted to Hydrogen-4 (H-4) and after a while (ultra short), it will decay back to Tritium and emit free neutron. Giving none or subtle traces of reaction like e.g. change of path of neutron and/or little delay. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotopes_of_hydrogen But it is extremely fast decay (in yoctoseconds). "Another atom"? It must be the same type of atom as the one hit, otherwise the rules of conservation would be violated, no? or.. can it emit something else (e.g., positron, electron, proton, alpha or whatever), besides the free neutron? Free neutrons differ in their kinetic energy. That is why they are called cold/slow and hot/fast neutrons. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutron_temperature#Slow https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutron_temperature#Fast https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutron_temperature#Ultrafast If you hit Deuterium with a free neutron with a kinetic energy greater than 2.22 MeV, it can yield a free proton and a free neutron, and your original free neutron. Other isotopes that decay by neutron emission are He-5, He-7, He-9: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotopes_of_helium

Is there any way for the immune system to detect water molecules? Tessa Hansen Smith / LivingWaterless claims to be internally allergic to water molecules when they touch her internal organs and bloodstream.

Why would any sane person want to repeat the nonsense that some random person from the Internet, who wants to be famous by writing nonsense, repeats on a scientific forum?

A person may be allergic to contamination present in water rather than pure (distilled, desalinated) water. Drinking contaminated water, can give the mistaken impression that it is the water that causes eczema. The water present in beverages, plants, fruits, sold in stores comes from different places, different regions of the world, and has none, minor or different contaminants.

Is it wise to freeze energy prices ?
Wow. Facepalm. The thread is about how to lower already excessive energy prices, and you suggest how to make things even worse.. ? Do you have any idea that increased energy prices would be immediately passed on to customers, i.e. everyone? Baker needs energy to heat stove. The same with almost all businesses, farmers, transport.. Higher costs of food production, higher costs of delivery of food and other goods to shops, higher prices of rental housing (gas, electricity) and so on, so on.. Increased taxes are always passed on to the end customers, or business in capitalistic country must be shut down. The UK is a net importer of food ("In 2020, the UK imported 46% of the food it consumed"). Maybe Brits should eat less (some obese, for sure) and have one shower per week, or month, and have to go to sleep at 18 to not have to turn lights on when it is dark.. ..sounds like you're talking about domestic energy usage.. which is just a part of country energy usage.. Business and farmers are also energy consumers. Increased costs of fuel will have result in inflation of price of whatever they produce or transport. It is easy/easier to reduce energy usage by individual customers. For example, make free buses and free city public transport, and less people will use private cars, reducing air pollution and carbon based fuels use. Refrigerator is not an essential accessory (especially in winter, I keep meat on the balcony). There are refrigerator-free food preservation methods like pickling, which worked for thousands years. The city can reduce energy consumption by turning off streetlights late at night. During the first wave of COVID-19, local authorities turned off the streetlights completely, and for the first time ever we had the opportunity to see the stars without the light pollution of a big city. The city can reduce energy consumption by closing public offices and schools (the energy needed to heat them) and using online alternatives. UK residents are at least fortunate (so far) that they don't have many days of -20C or -30 C in a year like we do. The price goes up because demand is high and supply is low. If demand decreases, the price will naturally fall. There is space for many optimizations and improvements. For example, a baker could be informed before starting work how many buns and breads are needed for the next day. IT could make an app that connects end customers with producers of food that cannot be stored for long, as in the case of a bakery. Exact quantity = less waste = less energy demand.

hot and cold
Temperature is not the only factor to consider. There is also pressure. e.g. water boils below 100 C when the pressure is reduced.

Test strips...
Methanol has a different boiling point (~ 64.7 °C) than ethanol (~ 78.23 °C), so when you distill a mixture of the two, methanol goes first. When I distilled ~ 500 mL of mash, the first 5-10 mL of product was collected and treated as "trash" (burned later as fuel, so don't throw it away, it can still be used). You should have equipment with a thermometer:

Potential mass strike action in the UK
Miners, steelworkers and shipbuilders are not well paid in your country? Here they are well above average.. ..you cut your statement to the level it is not understandable.. In a truly free market, when you don't like your job because the pay doesn't meet your requirements, you find a new one you like.

Potential mass strike action in the UK
It's a never-ending loop. People see increased prices in stores. They go on strike. They get raises. And business owners have to raise the prices of goods in order to have money for the workers, who are paid better. And the cycle repeats itself. People see prices rise and again want more money.. Strikes caused the collapse of communist/socialist countries. The only employer was the government. Striking miners, influenced steelworkers, influenced shipbuilders etc... and vice versa in all possible combinations When the shipyard workers went on strike, the communist politicians turned off all telephony and all possible communications, so they were unable to notify the miners and steelworkers about the event. Then, when communism collapsed, all these people lose job. Funny. They were not needed in such quantity like in communist country which hired people just to give people any job so they are not boring (therefor inefficiency of communistic country). In capitalistic country, the most important thing is efficiency, otherwise there is no income, and business has to be shutdown. If the government owns everything, then companies that draw energy/money from ordinary taxpayers can survive for centuries, half a century.. The company instead of making money is a black hole for taxpayers' money.. The strikers are 1) stupid or 2) pretend not to see how the price of what they build and sell changes over time. e.g. the price of coal on the stock exchanges. At the same time, the miners 1) do not want to reduce the workforce 2) do not want to reduce wages.. This is "mission impossible"! This results in the inefficiency of the entire mine. That is, they lose money than they earn. Coal mines hire people when the price of coal is high so they can produce more. Then comes the cycle of falling prices on the stock markets. But the workers don't want to be laid off, and a thriving company has a downfall.. ...go to your boss and ask for a 10% pay cut when it will make it easier for a failing company to survive.. If someone is not a slave, they can resign if/when the contract does not meet their requirements.. No? Computer programmers quit their jobs every two to three years. HR are in queue.. Owners of a business in a capitalist country 1) invested their own money to start the business 2) borrowed money from banks 3) borrowed money from 3rd party people e.g. investors who want to get them back.. The standard of living is given only once and then it can't be lowered? I guess in the U.S. the easiest way to go bankrupt.. looking at the number of homeless people on the streets.. "A person with money" (aka "investor") can 1) make a new business and start having problems like strikes at his/her company or 2) put that money in the bank 3) buy liquid stocks 4) buy government bonds, what will he/she choose?

..then make a dress with pockets if there is an unmet demand for it and become a billionaire.. ? Business owners try to find 'gaps' which they can fill by what people always wanted and/or they never even dreamed about.. A good business owner asks customers what they want. This is done at fashion shows to gauge whether something will be criticized or welcomed. ps. "pocket"/"bag" is older than the dress.. had to carry stuff almost naked..

Does the Market Always decide? An application for AI?
The phrase "The market always decides" means a battle between supply and demand. If people are buying dresses without pockets then apparently there is a demand for them. Huge corporations make unique things, or try to make unique things, to have monopoly. Also, patents and licenses reduce the chance of competition. In the past, e.g. hammer were made by craftsman, now hammers have a brand printed or engraved on them. And some people (snobs?) buy stuff based on brand recognition. They're not just looking for a hammer, they're looking for a hammer with a specific brand, meaning no substitutes.

The speed of time
Speed is distance in meters divided by time in seconds. So it does apply to time curve f(t')=t.. If time at some point, goes faster or slower, then you need another clock, which will tell how much they differ, when they try to synchronize their clocks once again after re-meeting.
