If an animal gets shot with lead, survives and runs away, there is now a wounded animal or an animal carcass containing lead somewhere in the wild.
If it is wounded or freshly dead a carnivore will eat it and accumulate lead. That may be large carnivore or a smaller carnivore that later gets eaten by a bigger one. Birds tend to have stronger stomach acid that most mammals, allowing them to dissolve the lead better.
Vultures having it the worst as they will eat any carcass and have the strongest acid. - Comment on Who is the enemy? 15 hours ago:

Same thing with lead shot accumulating in large birds birds.

Yes, for mild winters and plentiful harvests
Bastards, we need harsher winters over here. Otherwise the moskitos and invasive species get even more numerous.

Just go with a typical fund and donate the amount of profit that makes you feel good with it to a good cause of your choice.

“Three Germans meet - they found an association (Verein)”.
Stop spreading misinformation on the Internet!
Everyone knows, that while 3 is the minimum membership (§ 73 BGB), 7 people are required to found one (§ 56 BGB). - Comment on Are the research projects for long-term storage already deployed? 3 weeks ago:
Unless you want to carve large holes in granite, your best shot at the moment is something like the Arctic World Archive.

Does it count if I have to google which key to hold down to enter the boot menu or bios every time? There are 12 function keys and esc.

Because the tree would need to grow 100x as big. People often forget, that the carbon needs to go somewhere and in a tree that is mostly the wood.
A fully grown forest is just full and can’t take up more CO2 unless you take some wood out. That wood need to be used in construction or turned into charcoal and buried to make sure it can’t be turned back into CO2 by rotting. - Comment on GET BOMBADEERED, IDIOT 5 weeks ago:
No you don’t
You just have to make sure to terminate the line with two spaces. Unless you have a different markdown renderer than the web interface and most apps.Or does line break mean empty lines to you?

Yes, but the visible light will overpower the glow.
- Comment on Can somebody please explain why the world hasn't gone nuclear yet? 1 month ago:
Why would we need to store energy for more than an day? We only need to smooth out the difference between supply and demand.
The mayor advantage of the European grid is the disconnectedness over long distances. There are always enough places where the sun shines or the wind blows. - Comment on Can somebody please explain why the world hasn't gone nuclear yet? 1 month ago:
I am not arguing that nuclear should have been phased when it was, as that resulted in more coal and gas, but that clinging to it now is a mistake.
Building a new nuclear power plant in Germany would take a decade if things went well. Until then grid battery storage can mature and demand adjustment projects can be rolled out. It’s probably also easier to convince germans to accept pumped hydro where they live over nuclear. - Comment on Can somebody please explain why the world hasn't gone nuclear yet? 1 month ago:
With the same amount of money you can build so much more renewable generation and storage than nuclear.
- Comment on Can somebody please explain why the world hasn't gone nuclear yet? 1 month ago:
It is also massively uneconomical. Even with existing subsidies, like free insurance and long term storage, plant operators don’t want to keep going.
Modern day nuclear advocates are like the Japanese soldiers in the 70s refusing to admit the war was lost decades ago.
- Comment on Can somebody please explain why the world hasn't gone nuclear yet? 1 month ago:
The only reason “civilian” nuclear power exists is as a fig leaf for nuclear armament.
I don’t think post war Germany had the delusion of their own nukes. Here the nuclear industry just exists to shuffle public money into private pockets.

It refers to people generally supportive of things, but not where they live.
Typical topics are energy/transport infrastructure or housing for refugees/homeless people. - Comment on YSK: Non-violent protests are 2x likely to succeed and no non-violent movement that has involved more than 3.5% of the country population has ever failed 2 months ago:
YES, protesters are freely associating members of the general public, whereas the police are vetted and trained professionals, payed by taxes to “uphold the law”.
They should be held to a higher standard! - Comment on Seeking for funding 2 months ago:
If you have a theory of everything, I suspect whatever algebraic structure the terms follow, is at least a ring and therefore has additive inverses.

They don’t need to understand it, they just need to ask it a question that refers to it and some surrounding algorithmic structure to create the paradox.
A well prepared mathematician, skeptical of the functioning of the oracle devices could speak that question in a few minutes. - Comment on Let's play this game again 2 months ago:
They will pay you, what they pay for another employees day.

You are hounded by mathematicians that want to apply the halting problem to the device.
If they ever get through and ask the question, reality breaks. - Comment on Let's play this game again 2 months ago:
