The former might not be true either. China has 1.7M listed, but if you include 1M to 3M in forced vocational education and training centers, the count would be higher than the 1.8M in the US. The rate would still be lower though.

Then say the country with the latest prison population, not the highest incarceration rate, since the latter just isn’t true.

Is OP from El Salvador? Wikipedia is showing the top five are El Salvador, Cuba, Rwanda, Turkmenistan, the US in that order.

Okay, that’s resistive heating. So it’ll be the same efficiency as a oil heater or any space heater. So heating less space with it will save money.

Most all forms of heating are near 100% efficient, since it’s the waste heat you want. Unless the central heating is using a heat pump instead. Does your central heating use gas heating? If so, using it will probably be cheaper. If it uses resistive heating, the individual unit might be cheaper. But if it uses a heat pump, it might be cheaper to use central again. There are a lot of variables it’s hard to know.

People will vote for what they like, not what’s good faith.

Source it like this:

But if you got $5000 at 0.7% yearly interest rate for 2000 years, you’d get to Musk’s wealth. You can only get that high with compound interest with investments, rather than earning money.

I think it’s also a reference to the bavarian flag.

Hence why their logo is 3 tuning forks.

Yeah, space Force bought the launches? With star shield, the DOD bought space on starlink sats.

You taking neutron? That still has a disposable upper stage.

US buys launches at the same rate as everyone else. NASA chipped in a few million to get falcon 9 off the ground, but they haven’t been subsidizing for years.

This guy was only killed afterwards after being taken away, but plenty of other people we shot or run over right behind him.

Looks more like the mitchells vs the machines to me.

But a very small portion of human activity is developing chips or launching rockets. Most of it is manufacturing disposable junk or building roads/buildings.

Good vid from real engineering on the subject

SpaceX launches in 2023 were about 0.02 megatons of CO2 directly. I don’t know how fugitive emissions from fueling and defueling, especially on starship with methane.

200,000kg/launch, 100 launches.
