To be fair, coal and oil are narratives are being pushed by foreign actors too on the US. China knows exactly how to win a race, and step 1 is to tie your opponents shoe laces.

Well that’s one less customer they’ll have, it’s rime to take your money elsewhere!

Oh sorry, I think I was responding to someone else. As for cable weight, I was playing around with this calculator and for a pure copper wire less than 3mm thick and 10km long, you only need to overcome 300kg in weight.
If you use the standard 20mm wide cables, then yes weight becomes a huge problem. But then maybe you use more balloons, or just secretly hook it over a few satellites when no one’s looking

Tether to the ground limits X-axis. Buoyancy limits Y-axis. Draw a circle around the sine of ground-to-windmill hypotenuse and you immediately know the max constraints of where the windmill will be
- Comment on Low birthrates in England could lead to ‘closure of 800 primary schools by 2029’ 6 days ago:
Thats a funny one. We’re projected to peak at 76M people in 2100, and then we decline.
Comparing that to Japan’s extreme population curve, they lose 60M people the next century, giving them a woeful total in 2100 of… 76M people.
Our best is their projected worse, lmao.

- Comment on What are the visually-best anime you're seen? 1 week ago:
First episode of Dandadan was a visual masterpiecr in animation. You could literally feel every frame.
Subsequent episodes dial back the effort a little, but that first episode re-awakened my love for anime again, after a decade of what seemed like endless low-effort fluff.

No, it’s just depressed and that makes us feel sad and worried for it.

- Comment on Driver claims cyclist punched him in face and threw bike at car, causing £1,000 worth of damage, after motorist hit him “at about 2mph” 4 weeks ago:
(I have been hit multiple times, car doored to the nose, and cycled 40km a day for several years in chaotic city roads before cycle lanes existed, and routinely appeared at work with bloodied knuckles – just in case that somehow validates my comment more)
I don’t think drivers seek to run down cyclists, only that a lot of them were taught to drive at a time that did not accomodate for them when they took their driving test.
Granted that cars are far higher, larger, and more powerful now and likely do pose more of a threat. I just think jumping down someone’s throat for a no harm no foul situation breeds only bitterness between the types of road users who must ultimately co-exist
