I’m pretty sure that carrots don’t need vets or civil engineers to grow.

Do you think we are going back to the stone age or something?

If things really got that bad then I can get access to firearms.

If the virus doesn’t infect cyber criminals, maybe I should consider a career change then.

You seem to think that a shop can’t exist without an internet connection.

I’m pretty sure you are just trolling now.

Personal attacks are the strongest form or arguments, i’m sure.

Everything you just said is insane. You original post said that you dont want anymore lockdowns, but now your saying that the world will end without them.

But I would be fine.

I don’t need to rely one anybody else, my property is more than sufficent to produce food and…[Read more]

The Italian government recently reviewed their covid death statistics, they concluded that covid only contributed to 12% of them.

I don’t know why anyone would think tracking deaths that way is a sensible thing to do.

I have no idea what the vaccines do, every scientist and “expert” says something different about them.

Pfizer says their…[Read more]

But …. why?

I don’t understand the logic in this.

Presumably sheand her mum are vaccinated. Does she believe that the vaccine does not stop you from catching the virus?

If it doesn’t then why does it doesnt matter if the other people are vaccinated or not, the risk of infection is the same.

No, they haven’t.

They have died (for any reason) within 28 days of a positive test result.

This does not mean that they died from covid, or that they even had covid when they died.

That is not my argument.

Although it is bizzare to think that a government can prevent a spread of a virus.

A virus isn’t going to follow the law.

There…[Read more]

Lockdowns and restraints aren’t caused by the virus, they are caused by a power mad government that is legitimised by people like you who think that the government hasn’t gone far enough.

None of the lockdowns (in any country) have worked. This is no longer debatable, if they worked then the virus would have been eradicated and we wouldn’t be…[Read more]

Absolutely insane

Expensive coat if £146 is 15%

Not all conspiracies are theories.

I did some more reading on this and it seems that you can avoid this issue on reversable heat pumps (ones that also work as air conditioners) by reversing the flow and using heat inside the house to melt the ice.

So it should always be at least a tiny bit more efficient than resistive electric heating unless its about -20C outside.

Air source heat pumps also have the problem that their (outdoor) radiators freeze is cold weather, so they have to run an electric heater (outdoors) to keep melting the ice.

This lowers their cold weather efficiency even more, I imagine it might even make it negative (You have to put more energy into stopping the radiator freezing then it can…[Read more]

That depends on the heat transfer coefficient, which is determined by the design of the heat pump, and mostly by the temperature and humitity of the air.

Under an ideal situtation the coefficient can be a 1:3 ratio, but that’s when the air has a lot of thermal energy to extract. That’s why they are used as air conditioners.

I ask you again, if…[Read more]

No, that isn’t how they work at all.

The function of a heat pump is to move thermal energy from one place to another.

To heat the inside of a house, they must move thermal energy from outside of the house. If it is cold outside (when you normally want heating) then there is not much thermal energy to pull from the air to move it inside.

Not…[Read more]

Actually they are probably worse than normal electric heaters as the compressor (the thing that consumes most of the electric) would be outside of the house.

If you have an electric oven you might as well just use that as a heater.

My understanding is that air source heat pumps are more or less useless as heaters as when it is cold outside (when you usually would want heating) there is very little heat energy that can be extracted from the air.

They work fine as air conditioners, but for heating they aren’t much more efficent than a normal resisitive heater. You need ground…[Read more]

I don’t agree that being able to survive on your own is the correct criteria.

Humans don’t really meet that until at least the age of 3 years. You also raise issues about whether people in comas or other vegitative states have human rights or not, as they would be unabled to survive on their own.

Why?

It is very clearly murder at some stage of development.

I thought this debate is about at when that stage is, not if murder should exist or not.

I’ve seen some people say that post-natal terminations should be legalised, but I assume you are not one of these monsters. Would you agree that terminating a baby at 9 months is murder?

I don’t believe that parental status is termined by genetics.
