  1. Fuel cell cars are basically electric cars with a fuel cell instead of a battery, so you can theoretically convert a tesla by replacing its battery with a fuel cell. Not much point in doing that though, hydrogen is a nightmare to handle. With the Hertz order TSLA just passed $1 trillion market cap though, remember what the troll was saying about it?
  2. Winsor: posts ~1000 pages of content that he didn't write and requires that people respond to each point otherwise "they have nothing". Also ignores actual responses to some points because he couldn't answer simple questions. Classic troll behaviour.
  3. One study. And it has not yet been peer-reviewed. Here's a better study: https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/70/wr/mm7032e1.htm?s_cid=mm7032e1_ For a layperson-friendly article: No, your antibodies are not better than a vaccination: an explainer When your source article repeatedly calls it the "CCP virus", complaining about this being political seems a bit silly...
  4. Oh, winsor needs it alright...but not because he has an actual point.
  5. Makes incoherent posts, expects "coherent responses" (which agree with him). He really doesn't see it...
  6. aaaaaand he really doesn't see it... The irony.
  7. And 'canceled' is their catch-all phrase for being held responsible for their words and actions, like losing social media followers. Much worse than being lynched, you know? And using it to scare others to help radicalize them to their cause, like airdvr is doing.
  8. Found on the /r/HermanCainAward page:
  9. You haven't read that article properly...it's kind of becoming a recurring theme here. From the article you linked: The title - "COVID vaccine-related myocarditis rare, usually mild, studies say" - actually implies that the vaccines are safe... ah, the conspiracy theory again...
  10. this. something that keeps going over the head of mr. krebs cycle here...
  11. It's funny how you think you're "catering to our needs" when: nobody asked you to people have actually been asking for the REAL sources of your reasoning which you keep refusing to provide this also makes you look wildly inconsistent, but then again with antivaxxers, consistency in logic is one of the first things thrown out the window
  12. For someone who just said the CDC "has a long history of bs" just a few posts back, you sure are quick to appeal to their authority...
  13. So you got nothing. Figures... Simple, the US Government is huge - actually, Fauci and the CDC are part of the US Government. I wanted to be very specific, so that your bullshit has nowhere to run.
  14. Interesting. Care to elaborate on those three? Especially Dr. Fauci.
  15. No, your antibodies are not better than vaccination: an explainer
  16. ah, there it is, the science card. This will end well...
  17. Yes but this power reserve basically backs up several fossil fuel sources - notably, providing power when a coal-fired power plant in Queensland suffered an explosion in May. So why aren't people criticising coal power plants for their susceptibility to explosions?
  18. Calm down, I didn't. That's why I said it was word on the street, because I heard it from someone, and of course I'm not implying that's the public opinion. Exactly. Minor nitpick, batteries are not renewables. They're for energy storage rather than energy production.
  19. More information is coming out about the lawsuit, and word on the street it's basically about: the owners were making profits on the energy market by purchasing energy at low rates and putting it into the battery, then selling it at high rates during peak times, being unwilling to provide energy into the grid at low rates when asked to prop up the grid. ambiguous language in the contract (hence – the lawsuit) about how often and how much they would prop up the grid Nothing to do with Tesla, nothing to do with renewables, just business disagreements which seems pretty normal.
  20. If I had £0.01 every time I heard "this has nothing to do with Brexit"... People here who voted for it are deep in denial - saying it's due to covid, but at the same time not being able to explain why none of the EU countries, or even Northern Ireland are being affected as much.
  21. No, we just re-code the mRNA to target the new mutations, and run it through a slightly faster testing process like for the annual flu vaccines. Soon everyone will be vaccinated though, as the antivaxx are selecting themselves out of the gene pool quite rapidly.
  22. Why does it need to be 2016? Do you think there's a conspiracy to change the definition? Oxford dictionary snapshot from 2014: https://web.archive.org/web/20141018010428/https://www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/definition/english/vaccine Edit: yes I know that's the learner's version, couldn't find the full version and I don't really have a paper one readily on hand. But this link actually explains: https://www.sciencefriday.com/articles/the-origin-of-the-word-vaccine/
  23. That's like saying "the definition of a car is a diesel". Some vaccines use live virus, but the definition of vaccine is:
  24. With hundreds of thousands of people dead, and thousands dying every day, despite economy-crippling lockdowns, I think it was a good motivator that focused people's minds.
