    The goal to replace gasoline cars by 2030 with electrical ones will not fail on the car side, but on the infrastructure. There is no way that we will have enough power plants to produce the necessary electrical energy by 2030 (even when LENR technology would be available today), and even less likely are we going to have transport capacity in the electrical grid to support the loading stations necessary by 2030.


    Only hope would be everybody has an Rossi e-Cat to at home load his cars battery, but who wants to bet on this solution? :)

    COVID patient with sepsis makes 'remarkable' recovery following megadose of vitamin C


    https://www.abc.net.au/news/20…institute-austin/12939202


    A young Australian man who was critically ill with COVID-19 and suffering early stages of sepsis made a remarkable recovery after being given massive doses of vitamin C, according to his doctors.


    This is called "Marik Protocoll" and was reported to be helpful in sepsis about three yeras ago. Spesis, btw, is one of the leading causes of death.

    This is logically incorrect anyway.


    If you know A -> B, and you know B is true, you can not deduct anything about A.


    If you know A->B, and you know B is false, then you can deduct A is false. (Modus Tollens)

    Onion soup is easy and delicious, and hot, with cheese and toasted French bread on top, mmm, it's even better!


    This was the baseline in the german doctoral thesis: They boiled 500g of onions in the morning and fed them to the test persons and found this is the best way of increasing Quercetin levels in the blood.


    My take on this: In case you have symptoms, and you don't have access to HCQ or are worried about side effects, eat 500g onions (or your onion soup) and take 200mg of Zinc a day for a couple of days.


    Unlikely you still like onion soup after one week of this diet though.

    I have been taking 1000mg of Quercetin a day for around 2 months. No problems to report.


    In vitro Quercetin does have a toxic effect when taking long term (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18756631/)


    Quercetin is likely working as an Ionophore for Zinc similiar to HCQ (https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jf5014633) .


    The question is how much of that Quercetin you are taking orally is actually going into your blood. Onions contain quite a lot Quercetin, and eating onions resulting in a high bioavailbility of Quercetin in the blood, while eating pills possibly not so much (https://opus.bibliothek.uni-wu…/docId/96/file/graefe.pdf, https://www.sciencedirect.com/…cle/pii/S0014579397013677).

    Ivermectin study:

    Results: The cohort (including 704 ivermectin treated and 704 controls) was derived from 169 hospitals across 3 continents with COVID-19 illness. The patients were matched for age, sex, race or ethnicity, comorbidities and a illness severity score (qSOFA). Of those requiring mechanical ventilation fewer patients died in the ivermectin group (7.3% versus 21.3%) and overall death rates were lower with ivermectin (1.4% versus 8.5%; HR 0.20 CI 95% 0.11-0.37, p<0.0001).

    Rolling average COP with a suitably large time-constant is obviously a much better method of presentation


    I tend to disagree. Me thinks the only dependable key indicator would be total energy out / total energy in from the beginning of the testrun.


    You can then still discuss e.g. how much energy was used to heat up the reactor itself or "sneaked out" somewhere, but any moving average COP is subject to distortion due to all kind of artefacts during the test run.


    Edit: Henry just came up with the same argument just while I was typing.

    This is their scanner technology currently not applicable, data was collected on a computer not using a scanner and probably the graphs created in excel.


    I agree, but no one knows how the graphics was transferred from (presumably) Excel into the presentation and which compression algorithms the programs involved were using. When I do these things quite often I use a screencapture program (e.g. Snagit or Greenshot), the Windows cut-n-paste function, and display program like Ifranview, which compresses the image. On top the presentation went to Powerpoint, presumably saved, and later converted to pdf, the uploaded to Scribd(?). Nowhrere am sure about how the programs are handling data and compressions.


    Quite offen image processing programs are using compression algorithms availble in source code somewhere in the net, so the Xerox bug msy pop up somewhere else.


    On a side note, when I would want to "enhance" my data in the graph I would modify the source data in the excel table, not the graph itself. Simply because it's more easy and more straight forward to do,

    A bit off-topic, but this can possibly be an artefact form image processing/compression. See the attached image how Xerox Workcenters are altering scanned images. Column 1 is the original, the other columns show the scanned results on various WC models


    The bug is coming from the image compression algorithm which Xerox uses. It tries to find similiar aereas in the image, then storing the aerea only once in the compressed file.


    The bug hit the fan in 2013, when they found that scanned invoices display numbers different from the original paper, and some libraries which changed to archiving material using Xerox machines found that their archives are possibly corrupted.


    An engilsh writeup from David Kriesel who found the bug you can find on his blog:

    For those who understand German you can find a talk from David given on 31C3 about the bug. Hilarious story, quite entertaining to watch:
