It all just comes down to preference, but what a lot of people prefer is being able to express slightly different concepts clearly.
When people do that I often think I said something that hits home, but they don’t want to admit.
Air and wind are inexpensive insofar as they have a low LCOE, but are intermittent, so require being coupled with energy storage, and that is not inexpensive.
First, AIR and wind?
Second, yes they are intermittent but that’s not an argument in favour of nuclear. Pairing intermittent sources and sources that need to run at full power 24/7 to be economic isn’t a good match.
This is the key question. Eventually reactors wear out and need substantial refitting to live longer, and you’re then working on a highly irradiated structure.
The UK hit this point with a number of reactors. Even though they had licenses to continue, reality struck and they had to be decommissioned. Of course, the reason for the extension of service was because no replacement plan was in effect. End result is the UK nuclear generation is slowly dying.
…and that chart is missing 9 years. It’s now 5.9GWe.
Yes there’s lots of ceremonial aspects to parliament and if they wanted to include more maori tradition into it, I’d be all in favour.
This is akin to randomly bellowing out the national anthem in the middle of a voting session but with more bite. I’d expect somebody doing that to be sanctioned too.
You’re right it does vary from country to country.
However, I don’t personally think it does the process any good if thing can descend into playground insults or violence. I’m in favour of people being expelled if they can’t maintain a base level of behaviour.
Thanks. That does give me more context. Not as bad as it could have been, but certainly has some venom in parts.
A ritual dance is physical intimidation?
Yes
I suppose you’d say having aggressive body language (looking angry) is physical intimidation too.
Yes (but just looking angry is not body language. It’s a facial expression. Screaming at someone with your arms flailing is aggressive body language)
Do you even know the history of the Haka? It’s a warrior’s dance to intimidate their foes. Modern haka can have many meanings, but that’s it’s root.
I don’t know about the NZ parliament, but in the UK parliament upon which it is based it absolutely possible for members to be thrown out of the chamber. It’s not even that rare. Famously Dennis Skinner was kicked out for calling them Prime Minister David Cameron “Dodgy Dave” and refusing to retract it.
Are you quoting some rule or just your own expectation?
Parliaments have rules dictating behaviour for good reason. If they don’t then discussion break down into chaos. So should they be punished? Absolutely.
The severity of that punishment depends on the type of haka and what was intended by it. In all the coverage I’ve seen no translation of what was said. A haka can be anything from expressions of joy to a declaration of war.
If the point was to intimidate or worse, then throw the book at her. Just as someone using intimidating or violent language would be ruled against. Doing it in a way specific to a particular culture does not get you protection.
If it was just a display of Maori culture at a poignant moment, expressing grief at the decision, then more leniency can be shown. However I doubt that’s the case given the physical actions involved.
Communicating to them what having them In your life means to you.
So more like a charity status?
The cybertruck is on a different scale of unpopularity.
Nobody threw Molotov cocktails at Delorians. (Edit: or even DeLoreans)
Likewise, but I watched the lecture videos rather than reading the book. Allowed me to decompose problems in an entirely different way.
Whoops. I read it as 14.2 and rounded down.
Still… it’s all totally above board and I’m not expecting US arms to appear in Iran or Russia.
I agree with what you’re saying, that the attack didn’t require any data breach to take place, but I do have one slightly pedantic point.
Codeberg being non-profit does not make the employees “volunteers”. They are normal employees and take a wage like working for any other company. What’s different is that any excess revenue over costs must be used to continue the company’s objectives and is not able to be taken by the company owners as profit.
