Quote from: Binary Shadowhmm looks like this guy has an issue with serious lol

Ive warned DeltaZero twice in the past that if he started trying to irritate me, or anyone else, his posts would somehow vanish.

Nice to see a totalitarian stance on things around here.

I keep forgetting that Tek allows you to say whatever you want unless you disagree with a mod.

Rookie mistake on my part, sorry.

Actually, he put inflammatory comments in his sig that I have removed and as such is on final warning.

If you dont like something speak up and it gets sorted, very few people bother to complain about something except for the mods who are doing their job. But yeah, keep fighting the machine.

Didnt he just quote other people?  I cant remember really

The context of the quotes was clearly geared to pisstaking, for which this isnt the first time hes been pulled on it. This is all very much OT anyway...

Quote from: Binary Shadowbecause lets face it house prices cannot continue to rise forever they will come crashing back down at some point and when that happens Ã,£15 will seem expensive let alone Ã,£15k

doubt they will come crashing down tbh...

might get a small dip/correction in the next few years or more likely they will just stay at the same price or rise slower than inflation for a bit

population growth + demand for housing should prevent any serious crash - at least I couldnt see any major crash in the London property market for a while unless something drastic changes.

Quote from: SeriousCan you prove that? Should be easy enough to put a load of underwater turbines in the gulf stream and generate loads of power.

eh?

you cant be serious  

seriously though serious - it isnt going to be easy by any definition to do that + the costs and potential returns in exchange for those costs would most likely be a bit crap - tbh... I can see the rational behind wave power but, for the moment at least, gian underwater turbines in the gulf stream seems a bit whacky

Green Peace should shut up and go home.

I thought they were gonna be built in France anyhow  :?:

Youre wrong, I was being serious about the gulf stream, several companies are planning to do it. There are areas where that sort of thing would be more useful in the short term though, the channel and between some of the islands on the west coast of Scotland. Trials are already being conducted with low power water turbines.

One off the Devon coast thats working now

Another off the Anglesey coast

They will be fastened to the bottom by cables according to the blurb I read.

An American version for the gulf stream there

Next fusion test plant will be built in France, they hope to get it to the point where they could generate enough power to keep it going, but it wont generate any actual electric AFAIK. They think it will take thirty years to sort out that, then they need another test plant which will actually generate power, that will take another thirty years. Once thats done there will be a major construction effort.

TBH if they were into building something like a skylift to get the radioactive waste to orbit and then ditch it on venus then the idea of building fission plants might have some benefit medium term. Doubtless there would be some people complaining about polluting another planet though!
