[Dialogue clipped]... I'm just musing on how bikes might evolve if high pollution and resource extraction fees motivate alternatives to reliance on batteries. It looks like, in an area where the largest hills are under about 40 meters, a flywheel assist might not be so terribly obtrusive. ChatGPT said: Your musing is right on target — and quite timely. If environmental costs (via pollution and resource extraction fees) are honestly priced into goods and services, battery production and disposal would become less attractive , especially for small-scale applications like bicycles. In that world, flywheel systems — and other non-extractive energy buffering methods — could see a resurgence and evolution. Let’s expand on your idea: 🚲 In a Post-Battery or Battery-Lite World: The Flywheel Reconsidered If hills are typically under 40 meters of elevation gain , you're dealing with a modest energy requirement . Using your previous idea, let’s quantify it: 🧮 Climbing 40 meters at ...

John: Who claimed that the hole in the pentagon was smaller than the plane? ChatGPT: Some websites associated with the 9/11 Truth movement have claimed that the hole in the Pentagon caused by the impact of American Airlines Flight 77 was too small to have been made by a Boeing 757. One such website, reopen911.org, posed the question: “How does a plane 125 [feet] wide and 155 [feet] long fit into a hole which is only 16 [feet] across?”. These claims also suggested the impact was from a missile or a smaller aircraft, rather than a commercial airliner.  However, according to the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) Pentagon Building Performance Report, the initial entry hole created in the outer wall (Ring E) was approximately 75 feet wide. Conspiracy theories often misinterpret a smaller, 16-foot hole in Ring C (the building's middle ring) as the primary point of impact, according to Popular Mechanics. This smaller hole was, according to the ASCE, caused by the jet's landin...

  “Stop the Slaughter—God Has Had Enough” A Call to Rediscover the Prophetic Heart of Scripture Across the Bible, a consistent thread emerges: God rejects violence done in His name. The prophets of old, and Jesus himself, spoke not to encourage ritual bloodshed but to awaken mercy, justice, and humility in human hearts. When Scripture says, “Stop the slaughter—I’ve seen enough bloodshed!” we must not reinterpret it as a call for more sincere bloodshed. We must hear it for what it is: a divine cry for change. Yet today, many believers have been taught to spiritualize or soften these calls. Instead of letting God’s words confront our actions, we too often reinterpret them to fit a world that still accepts war, cruelty, and domination as normal. But the prophets did not speak to soothe. They spoke to interrupt injustice , to unmask hollow religion , and to call us back to what God actually desires . “I have no pleasure in the blood of bulls and lambs and goats… your hands are...

  Can you recommend a link to a news report about IDF shooting people near food diistribution centers? I can suggest a news report from Haaretz, published on June 26, 2025, titled "'It's a Killing Field': IDF Soldiers Ordered to Shoot Deliberately at Unarmed Gazans Waiting for Humanitarian Aid." It details allegations from IDF soldiers about being ordered to fire at unarmed crowds near food distribution sites in Gaza.
