Australia fined valve over return policy. I think it's personal.

You can buy them from Dicksmiths or JB

The academic system is a tiered system. Publish or perish is a term that mostly applies to early to mid career researchers, who are pracitcally all employed on fixed term contracts.You don't lose your job if you don't publish, you just can't get (or are less competitive for) your next job.

Tenured academics (professors/A. Prof.) are on ongoing employment by the university. Their job is never really under threat. Although if they wanted to move jobs and be successful in grants then they want a productive group (many publications) to prove they are leading cutting edge research.

Universities care directly around how much grant funding their professors can pull into the university. However, in many countries it's difficult to remove long serving academics. It's not uncommon for 'retired' proffs to die at their desk, even though they checked out decade's ago.

I worked up the energy to google. Turns out it's not a photovoltaic (gamma-voltaic?) anyway, it's a betavoltaic. I guess that makes more sense than the rubbish capture cross section of high energy light.

No one has directly answered your question.

The answer is yes, you can create photovoltaic cells better optimise to pick up high energy light such as that from nuclear decay (gamma radiation). However, the power generated by photovoltaics is limited more by intensity of the light, and not the energy per photon (wavelength). For physical reasons is hard to capture the energy of high energy light, so gamma photovoltaics are low power concepts.

There is an idea going around to grow diamond with c14 and also harvest that c14 decay with a diamond based photovoltaic. Making everlasting batteries, albeit radioactive and microwatt. (Specifics are probably wrong, working from memory.)

"Humans will survive this" - I am unconvinced, I think there are very real reasons to consider the coming climate variations as an existential threat.

No one two jango was maybe the biggest miss, otherwise pretty good... especially given the absurdity of making one piece live action.

I really liked luffys accent... fit the character for me. Sanjis too.

Nothing to do with cost, overlord Mudcock didn't want foxtel to lose customers to internet streaming.

Yes, but the estimated effect on global average temperature this change imparts is 0.05C by 2050

And whilst we could add more, I'm not convinced acid rain is the winning trade of for controlling global warming.

I think the microtransactions praise was more are, non predatory marketing / extracting every last cent praise. Didn't Stanfield have a premium cost to pay a week earlier or something? Is that not a similar concept, albeit nowhere near as shit as microtransactions.

Are we not all tired of being wrung out for our cash? What's so wrong with just charging what you need so that you can make a game.

Are you aware of the backfire effect? https://effectiviology.com/backfire-effect-facts-dont-change-minds/

Inventory limits are a direct nerf to barrelmancy

Gamers nexus had gtx 1070 in their starfield performance review, so it can work on a 1070. 30fps on low settings I think though.
