I’m not imagining any problems. The difficulties I’ve outlined are genuine issues that have to be addressed. I think you’d be surprised to learn how much difference there is between a thing existing and it actually operating efficiently.
Vertical farming usually uses LED lighting, not direct sunlight.
That’s one method of bringing"sunlight" to plants. Another would be to grow them outside.
And I think the idea is that once the water is present on a given level it gets recirculated and reprocessed there, so it wouldn’t need much additional pumping.
Even if all you do is pump all the water from the floor of each level to the ceiling of the respective level, you’ve done the exact same amount of work as pumping all the water for the top floor back to the roof in the first place. Only you’ve done it with a hundred pumps and a hundred times the points of failure and repair rate as a single pump for the entire building.
You’d be so much farther ahead to just install a reservoir on the roof that gets filled by a single pump and let gravity feed the lower floors. Much the way we already do for flat farming.
And then you’ve got to make up for the inefficiencies lost in planting and harvesting. Vertical farming brings nothing to the table except a smaller footprint in a world where that’s not a real advantage.
A far better use of empty office buildings would be to convert much of the space into full-time living space.
The problem is a constant fight against gravity. You’ve still got to pump the water effectively to the top of the building every day. And there’s still the issue of getting sunlight to the plants.
The question really becomes whether it’s more economical to just use traditional irrigation techniques upstream and ship the produce in vs converting a skyscraper into a very inefficient farm space.
Early Access karma whoring.
No, but it is raising some alarm bells.
No, but I found Waldo.
Maybe it’s because I am a native english speaker but your reply is offensive and embarrassing to native English speakers around the world. You can do better, America. You just have to try.
I mean… They’re not fucking wrong.
Maybe it’s because I am a native english speaker but I read this as a pledge to murder all homeless people by cutting them in half 🤔
Maybe, but as I always say, today’s “crazy conspiracy theory” is tomorrow’s news.
Only if you’re inclined to believe the conspiracy theory first.
Doesn’t mean plenty of them don’t know or care that he’s trying to put microchips in people’s brains.
Now, here’s the thing. I’d say you would be sharing those winnings with the original winner unless you prevented them from getting the ticket
The January 2nd Powerball draw was not won by anyone and paid $39M.
That’s plenty of seed money to invest in Google, Bitcoin, et al with perfect knowledge of stock trends. Even if it’s only short term knowledge due to breaking from the original timeline, you could easily grow your investment into the billions overnight.
That’s not so much losing your home as it is having it forcibly purchased from you at a fair market price. At least in theory.
They weren’t.
The poster has way too long of hair for none of it to be visible in the photo.
Bro, wait until you hear about the cool new hair prosthetic they just invented. I think they’re calling it a weg or wig, I dunno something like that. And then there’s all the hats and headbands that can be used to put hair up into fancy hairstyles that don’t just dangle all the way down like Rapunzel. Really good for vigorous physical activities like running or jumping or even dancing.
It’s just moonlight shining through the buildup of the day’s chemtrails.
That’s America too.
Wouldn’t even care. Excel is always open.
You would turn down free bread sticks and $7M? At least eat some bread sticks.
