  1. Notice how almost all his "predictions" start with "I don't think" - because negatives are usually more difficult to disprove, but he also puts gigantic loopholes in them so he can wriggle out easily. Using words like "skyrocket" or "suffer high energy costs" so that he doesn't have to put a number on them.
  2. Met Office, December 2020: "2021 will be slightly cooler than 2020 due to the La Nina, but is still expected to be the sixth warmest year on record at approximately 1.0C higher than the baseline". (proved spot on by Jan 2022) Brent, January 2021: "I do not think global temperatures will skyrocket" One is a prediction, the other is a joke
  3. fixed it for you. Also you keep forgetting that the relatively lower temperature of 2021was already predicted, and explained in December 2020. They even predicted it would be the SIXTH hottest, and their prediction was spot on. The limit of your predictive capabilities is "it will be colder...just because!" Nothing about how much, because you don't really have any idea what you're talking about.
  4. Stop kidding yourself, edited to remove personal attack -- the caveat is too little, too late (edit: meaning in terms of data analysis)
  5. As per brent's argument: as december approaches => it gets colder => but CO2 has increased slightly! It means CO2 has no effect on climate! If CO2 had an effect, this winter would have been warmer than the summer! Luckily, unlike brent, people can fit it into their minds that there can be more than one factor that affects the temperature.
  6. Also from the source link: There's no way to check their calculations because they don't show it - but it already seems some data was left out. It's also telling that their graphs start at 2015 now, because 2016 was such a hot year that it masks the warming trend. What happened to 1998? Not that he would know how to answer these questions (barely knowing how to put two numbers together) so checking this source's calculations is wayyyy off his ability scale.
  7. All of a sudden the NOAA is ignored, maybe because they're saying this in their 2021 summary: Random blogger, or NOAA? Man, I'm torn...
  8. I've read that lithium metal formation is the limiting aspect for very fast charging. One of the highest mileage Tesla Model S has covered more than 1 million km (https://electrek.co/2019/11/30/tesla-model-s-1-million-km/) with 2 battery replacements. The newer LFP models could reach 2 million miles expected lifetime, possibly even more than that: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41560-020-00757-7.epdf The theoretical lithium ion mobility seems to be much higher than current battery technology can use at the moment, so there's a lot of room for improvement.
  9. Can I repeat myself for the umpteenth time - it's not about "winning" because it pisses me off that it's even happening, and I wish you were right that there's nothing happening but all the evidence points to the contrary.
  10. You can ignore the rest of the media and just go straight to NASA or the NOAA's webpages. But please ignore brent's "re-interpretation" of the NOAA's articles. They're readable enough and you don't need him to break it down for you.
  11. If only there was a way to take temperatures all over the world, subtract them from a 30-year average temperature (say, 1951-1980) then average the differences, then plot it per year! Then we don't have to argue about a couple of weather events. But that's impossible, because the troll can't handle numbers...
  12. And to add to this question - is this actually a problem? What are the numbers on this? Without numbers this can be just like arguing for having triple reserves when skydiving.
  13. Ok since the evangelist with a grudge has nothing to contribute, I'll try to make up for engaging in that pointless discussion by trying to get this thread back on track: Pfizer says an omicron version of their mRNA vaccine should be ready in March: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/pfizer-omicron-vaccine-covid-update-b1990113.html Hopefully with the mRNA vaccines being much faster to adapt means we'll keep up with the mutations...
  14. And although this probably falls under the category of a personal attack, I won't report this post, but I do want to ask another question I asked you earlier - enough about me, do you actually have anything to contribute to the discussion or just keep grinding your year-long grudge?
  15. You calling me dumb? You think I mind? You're very obviously avoiding the question though, but I'll let others judge for themselves why that is, like how they judged who to call a troll more.
  16. You're the one who couldn't get over it, after more than a year! And you're the only one who goes on about it. And noted - you couldn't answer the question.
  17. If I say "I enjoy killing NPC players in video games" or just "I enjoy killing" is the meaning changed?
  18. Given your muddled statements in the other thread, you're pretty bad at conveying meaning. But it doesn't seem to stop you from assuming you know what I meant - you don't.
  19. Exactly, you quoted selectively. You're still doing it because it's missing a word. (the n-word)
  20. Then aren't you doing it again? Even your link shows half of my full statement - and that's all you've latched on to. And I didn't even say I was referring to YOU, but it seems your feelings were really, really hurt to nurse it for this long.
  21. Why should I when you said it was none of your business? Jeez this is taking a while for an "optimal game theory player" who knows EXACTLY how I think... Push back by raging incoherently? I doubt you've changed any minds here at all.
  22. But when I said I could address the content, all you said was: So why are you even here?
  23. Worth the paper it was written on. Definitely.
