Because it has a lower boiling point than nitrogen, doesn't freeze near absolute zero degrees.

Not sure what this says about me, but this old white guy has a happy hankerin' for some fried chicken and watermelon.
Gavin is just getting started -- My God, he is not trying to impress you, but his Hair sure is.
960 SAT. Good Lord. Was that Live or was that Memorex? This guy is literally a dullard.
98% on the GRE for me and still writing software / running the financials for side-hustles.
Why, oh why, to these Newsom mediocrities continue to float to the top? Surely they must be getting a push along the way.
We need a long, cold, hard winter to blow away a lot of the chaff.

Newsom's most recent concept really makes a lot of sense. Tell the people just how dumb, stupid, and ignorant they are. Then tell them you are just like them.  Then smile and ask them to vote for you.  Why would anyone do that, unless the rhetoric he is implying is really true?  This is what I ask my liberal friends, usually after which I'm usually no longer a friend.  To me it just proves it makes a lot of sense.

I especially liked Hillarie's comment on hot sauce, ‘‘I got hot sauce in my bag, swag’’.  That's pretty cool dude, maybe she should run for president again.  It was quite obvious she was playing "the deep-rooted cultural affinity for carrying and using hot sauce in the Black community" to show "them" that she understands them.  (It brings to mind that many of us, black and white,used a lot of hot sauce in Vietnam.  It was actually requested in our care packages from home. It's great on rations and on those terrific powdered eggs.

This also brings to mind when I was growing up in southern CA in the 50's.  I remember going into a predominately Black grocery store a few times near where we went fishing.  Every time It made me understand the Black's affinity for hot sauce.  The meat department actually stunk, and much of the produce and other "fresh" items were so much inferior to outside the area grocery stores. (I also wondered who owned and operated these stores, but that's a whole new topic).

Well, I was a 1470 SAT guy, and national merit scholar, and proud of it. What a douche.

It's rocket surgery. We're not supposed to understand. I did poke around on the NASA website to see if there were any tech details; found nothing. Do we know what trail of decisions led to the choice of fuel technology?

This issue was considered, long ago.
Ayn Rand was trying to describe people who think in a (by the old definition) liberal manner, while distancing themselves from he anti-Conservative control freaks that had already come into power 80 years ago. Her buddy Rose Wilder Lane (Laura Ingalls Wilder's daughter, in real life!) coined the word "Libertarian" to denote the difference.

Why use valuable Helium to pressurize the fuel and oxidants, vs something easy like Nitrogen?

While simultaneously accusing the other side (us) of just such a sin.

Cryogenic embrittlement is a surprisingly big problem. A part of my job is to make sure the engineers know what all the potential rocketry issues could be ... and to troubleshoot proactively.

Liquid helium and liquid hydrogen are much colder than liquefied methane that SpaceX uses. Is it any wonder that SpaceX is more reliable?

Money printing started in 1913 when the banking cartel was given legal authority to create fiat for themselves.
That said, FDR, WW2 (which became a ww because of the banking cartels' greed), and LBJ expanded fedgov spending immensely and inflation resulted.
Without the federal reserve act and income tax, inflation would not have occurred, gold might still back the dollar, and ww2 might have never happened.
(War is extremely expensive. The banking cartel created money from thin air to fund both sides.)

And beneath it all is the desire and yearning of many humans for Leadership, a God whom, for them, can be worshiped and adored and obeyed. Thereby releasing them of any and all responsibility for their own actions and mistakes. AI willed it, AI told us what to do. AI is perfect. We must submit to the will of AI. Sound familiar?

+100

There is a time-lag from when government policy takes effect to the time it impacts society. So the combination of the government policies in both 1968 and 1971 is an even greater indication of how these trends took off. Thanks, General, I didn't think of that!

"Culture is downstream from politics." ---Quisling Bongino.

Despite his unfortunate status of quisling, he is correct. (In politics, a "quisling" is now a common noun meaning a traitor, collaborator, or puppet leader who aids an occupying enemy force...such as the Deep State?) I used to listen to him on the radio, YouTube or podcasts, but...

"But that was a priceless Steinway!!!"

"Nit anymooore." ---(Chief Inspector Cluesoe) :D

He She Clinton, LOL!

A TREASURE TROVE of information! Just thinking, but the "Great Society" of 1968 is in close proximity to 1971. A double whammy on US society and financial change.

This is a race to the bottom, a personality contest, dumbing it down, as the populace becomes increasingly drugged, high, drunk, passive, centered on entertainment and spectacle. Trump was a showman, his Apprentice and Celebrity Apprentice were watched by everyone and got great ratings. He used his showman skills along with his message to get elected. No one has ever looked at an election as a pure game of ratings in the way Trump did. And he bamboozled them all. So now that he has achieved this, everyone is trying to copy his act. But no one slammed the border shut as fast as he did. Term 2 has been a firestorm to get done what wasn't done the first time. So Gavin thinks he can play Idiocracy funny boy and get elected. Maybe so! Maybe not! It's a race to the bottom of the soul...?

Between this and the Dems refusing to show any respect for the mother of the young Ukrainian lady murdered on the trian....How in the F do these people even stay in the race? How?

If you watch that interview carefully where Biden did the "you ain't black" thing. You can see he's very, very uncomfortable talking to black people. He thinks these people argue with each other...like a rap contest. No. Italians normally argue with each other. WTH is wrong with these people?

My FemiNationalsoZialistiche philosophy partner from college taught me "Womyn." Couldn't stand her.

OH, I get it !!! Good one! Womihn :D

Better run as Ho Chi Womin. ;^)

I love this website. If you study the charts, you can see how "free" money has affected us deeply in personal, social ways, not just economic.

Ho Chi Clinton should run with a moustache and call Herself a He!

+1!

Had to +1 that!

AND he WILL get a lot of votes! I believe if Ho Chi Min were alive today, put on a dress, and ran for president of the USA with a "D" after his (her, they, them?) name there would be millions of "Ds" that would vote for him even though they had NO IDEA of who he really is.

If 3 generations have not been taught rational thinking, and in reality thievery
has been rewarded while financial restraint punished, are the untaught
(aka conned) at fault?

The Federal Reserve Fractional Banking system, of course!
