They can. Businesses make people redundant every day. They also sack them for other reason. Go and ask your boss for a 10% pay rise. Then you will find out who is in a position of power. I presume you can't answer my previous question. The train operating companies wish to get their staff to work essentially longer hours at a worse rate of pay. The government is spinning this as "they want more money". The actual issue is that the travelling public will be less safe because those running the system will be more tired (and, in the slightly longer run, the job will be done by people who weren't able to get a better job; pay peanuts; get monkeys...). So the strikers are defending themselves against savage wage cuts and preserving safety of the travelling public so... are they using strikes against the public? But , because of inflation, they no longer have the same real-terms income. Why do you think they should accept a reduction in their standard of living? In particular, why should they accept it when the people "running" the businesses are typically getting paid huge bonuses? Do you not realise that's the asymmetry of power I mentioned earlier? How many of those are still going? here's a hint "All forms of closed shops in the UK are illegal following the introduction of the Employment Act 1990. They were further curtailed under section 137(1)(a) of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992 (c. 52)[5] passed by the Conservative government at the time. " From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed_shop#United_Kingdom

A bit of careful googling will let you know quite a lot about the process. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TNT#Preparation

Why do you want to increase the extent to which essential workers are exploited? To address the fundamental inequality of the "employer/ employee" relationship. If you think there are no consequences then you do not know enough about the issue to have a meaningful viewpoint on it. No; it's common sense. In what ways?

Not nearly as concerned as we should be about a government that's seeking to provoke it.

Wiki disagrees. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadrilateral#/media/File:Six_Quadrilaterals.svg.

OK, show us how.

Yes. That's why I'd do it.

I won't- I promise.

So, you do realise that the Right are just less well informed, don't you? Maybe you should listen to those who learned to think and to express those thoughts. Just "thinking" isn't good enough. You need to study how the world really works. You need evidence.

Russia invaded another country. Are you saying they can be trusted?

As the humidity (+ temperature) changes the stuff will gain + lose moisture and will tip back and to. In principle, you can use that motion to drive a mechanical clock. Good luck KCl would be a poor choice for this (unless you live somewhere with a humidity that's about 85%). Magnesium nitrate would be better near 50% RH This is a better bet https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmos_clock

Lightning involves currents of something like 10,000 amps (it's very variable) The circuit breakers at your fuse box probably limit the current your house can draw to less than (about) 100 amps. So the lightning only draws the same as about 100 houses (if they were all "maxed out") probably more like 1000 houses most of the time. However, if you want to compare power, you have to take the voltage into account, and lightning has a much higher voltage- something like a million times higher than that supplied to your house. A lightning strike would power about a billion households. But not for long. If you try to measure very very small currents say, less than 10^-15 of an amp, you don't get a steady current. The effect of each electron passing becomes "noticeable". If the average current is only 1000 electrons per second, then the variability is quite large- about 32 electrons per second on average. This is one source of "noise" in electronic systems.

Without a good indication of scale, it's very hard to identify things. (I know you say 400 and 1000 magnification, but is that on my phone or on my widescreen telly?) Comparison with a hair at the same magnification might be informative.

Mankind was using fire and breathings smoke before broccoli was bred. On the other hand, Broccoli, like other brassicas is actually toxic. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goitrin To a good approximation, sweat is water; and anything that can be carried out of the body in solution in water will be excreted in the urine, much more than in sweat simply because we don't normally sweat that much.

It's "barely" true. While some toxic material will be lost that way, it's nor very effective. No, that's because they either (1) like saunas or (2) have been conned into thinking it's a "detox". (Possibly by videos like that one)

Yes. And I can do it with only one field.

I think there's some misunderstanding(s) here. Irises (both the flower and the coloured bit of the eye); iridium and iridescence all get their names from ίριδα the Greek for rainbow. Iridium was named after the fact that many of its compounds are strongly coloured. Chromium was similarly named (from χρώμα) But iridescent minerals do not typically contain much iridium (and nor do irises). Iridium is rather rarer than gold.

It doesn't matter who says what. The constitution can be, in fact, be changed.

In what way? The bits of that which made any sense seemed to be saying that the best approach is defeatism.

Only by amendment. Amendments can be revoked. And the constitution can be amended. Pretending that the constitution is Holy writ is one of America's problems here.

If the V2 at 5760 km/h was above about 15000 feet (depending slightly on the weather) it would be hypersonic. https://www.fighter-planes.com/jetmach1.htm

I have used PEEK fittings at 5000 PSI and above.

It's still "sort of " right. Brown goggles will not protect you against a brown laser beam- because it doesn't exist. UV blocking goggles are likely to be yellow. IR blocking ones are likely to be blue/ green. If they block by reflection they (1) are not a good idea and (2) they look really shiny/ mirrored . It's not a good idea because reflective coatings are typically thin and easily damaged. In general it's not a great idea to judge the goggles by their colour.

According to this, you should be able to find "moon dust" with enough potash to grow plants. But without combined nitrogen you are stuffed. https://sites.wustl.edu/meteoritesite/items/the-chemical-composition-of-lunar-soil/
