What do we make of this? Everything I've read about the genetic sequencing of the virus that's being spread within cows suggests it hasn't gotten any better at mammal to mammal transmission.
Isn't it possible that the reason it's spreading so much in cows because they literally wade around in their own shit all day?

Sure. George Bush volume 2 I get the opposite vibe. Trump seems stupid but pretends to act smart, Bush seems smart but pretends to act stupid.

He obviously had no clue what "Nuclear Triad" meant so of course his only remaining option was to go to his usual fallback routine of pretending to be an expert regarding topics he is totally unqualified to discuss. Literally what did Trump do wrong here? If you place a fish on the floor, the only thing it can do is flop and struggle, but it's not like you should get angry at the fish for being unable to swim in his current situation. The fish is trying his best but simply doesn't have any wiser options than flopping in his desperation sadly. Literally ask yourself what is the fish doing wrong? Nothing

In this interview Trump is the flopping fish on the sidewalk. He actually did nothing wrong

Fake and gay. Simplistic comparisons are made on land use, without regard to land quality.
A lot of marginal land which can't economically grow nutritious human-grade crops is used to grow fodder for cattle. If it could be used to grow crops, it would, because crops yield much more money per acre for farmers than livestock do.

Stop pretending all land is equal. Prime, fertile arable cropland is not the same as marginal land.

I have one of these nalgene bottles.
For roughly 1 month, It had my pee in it (I didnt want to walk to the bathroom and had no other choice)
eventually I emptied and washed it. that was about a year ago and I haven't used it since.
Is it safe to use again and drink from now?

no, some of the bottle's polymer has likely already reacted with the pee. stale pee becomes basic and produces ammonia which can react with plastic if you give it enough time.

If a watermill like picrel floats on a river and creates energy by having absorbing the force of the current into its blades does that slow down the flow of the current?
If yes could you apply them to avoid fast flowing rivers washing through their beds?
If no could you put endless amounts of them into any river and have your power output limited only by the length of the river?
By that same thought could you place many dams behind one another as long as the water keeps flowing downhill and magnify the power output?

>>16136363
Exactly what i meant, so as long as it just flows downhill you can put in endless amounts

One dam at the end will extract more, as it makes some of the rain fall on top of it, instead of falling to what would be its bottom.

>If yes could you apply them to avoid fast flowing rivers washing through their beds?
yes, and yes

>>16135757
reported for extremely low quality (iq)
>>
>>16136379
So would also a floating mill slow down the current?
Would the speed of the current not be determined in the steepness of the river bed? There is a case here in my home where the river was straightened which led to it flowing more rapidly and washing through its bed, once it will be washed through the water would just sink in the ground, the river cease to exist and the surrounding land turn into a swamp, their solution now is to renaturalize it by digging a more meandering river bed for it, but could you slow it down with a floating water mill?
>>
>>16137048
There's only so much power in the river, so cramming in infinite turbines or water wheels doesn't give you infinite power.

If heat is energy and energy is equivalent to mass and you bring a freezer to freezing temps, does it weigh less than at room temperature?
9 replies and 1 image omitted. Click here to view.
>>
>>16135884
Why would the weight increase? The freezer would be closed and no new air would be introduced. The existing air would become more dense, but the weight wouldn't change if no new air comes in.
>>
>>16135577
yes. and a compressed spring is heavier than an uncompressed one
>>
>>16135964
Freezers aren't pressure vessels. It'll take a while, but there will be seepage.
If it was an isochoric temperature change on a freezer like this, going from ambient to 0F, you'd see a 14% pressure decrease, which would be noticable when you tried to open the lid.
>>
>>16135890
Can't say I agree, my good pedant. Mass may be an irrelevant concept in GR but OP is probably thinking about rest mass, which you even admit is still a relevant concept in other areas of physics.
>>
>>16136487
>Mass may be an irrelevant concept in GR but OP is probably thinking about rest mass
Why do you believe that he was thinking about rest mass? OP did not even mention mass. He inquired on the effects of temperature on weight. Weight is a gravitational phenomenon, and GR is the most accurate description of gravity we have.

>you even admit is still a relevant concept in other areas of physics
Oh yes, but irrelevant to OP's question though. Weight does not depend on rest mass, and it should be rather obvious that a freezer would not affect it anyway.

>pedant
Kind of a lame comeback now. What you said is categorically false. Even the notion of heat being photons is plain wrong, I just ignored that as it's hardy relevant to the topic. In relation to something that you would have in a freezer, thermal energy is effectively kinetic energy
