If we’re talking about high altitude peaks, like the 14 peaks, most people that summit do it “expediation style”, which always includes sherpas and porters. Only very few people have accomplished climbing one of the 14 peaks “alpine style”.

I think it would be better if everyone climbing a mountain does so out of their own free will and because they want to, and not out of financial necessity.
But that is something for the local governments to fix and not the responsibility of mountaineers.
But how can you go out and hire people to help you knowing there’s a 25% chance they’ll be giving their lives for you?
I mean, they want to be hired. That’s how a lot of people there make a living. They are aware of the risks.
Well, let me start by saying we haven’t lost a single American in this war,
But that is not correct. Several U.S. citizen have died fighting in Ukraine.
Again, it’s not 1995.
Keep saying that a few more times and maybe you can wish your imaginary battery technology into existance.
Yeah, you still don’t really seem to grasp the scales here. A 400 MWh is nice for a small Australian town, but a piss in the wind for an industrial centre.
Would just be a body double, I don’t think he dares to go near the warzone.
I was just making a joke about a small country without an army, because the previous comment’s “challange” and wasn’t trying to make any furher points. I don’t even know why it escalted like this.
Right. I just seemed to have missed the part where the facebook leadership was forced into excile and has it’s assets siezed by a 20 year long revolution/war that ultimatily defeated facebook, established a country and than granted the ceo a token “company”, entirly at the mercy of the revolutionaries.
What a great analogy.
Charging a car isn’t exactly on the same scale as providing power to a large metropolitan area with heavy industries.
There just is no viable battery storage for that scale with current technology.
But the Papal States were different. The country of Vatican City as it exists today was only established in 1929.
Boo! Boo Dutch police, boo!
Right… You know what can’t be regulated at all? The weather.
No? Why would even think that?
lol. No.
Yeah, both would be better. But if, for dumb political reasons, I had to choose one or the other, then it’s clearly gonna be nuclear. At least it’s viable as a singular source, which renewables would not be.
You do realise they still have to put warning labels on bleach so people don’t drink or inject it?
Yeah, maybe a tool that generates recipicts but has no concept of what eatable ingredents are, is not a good idea regardless of stupid users.
But climbing with an expedition is much more safe. There is nothing wrong with that inherently.
The real porblem starts when mountaineering just becomes a sick kind of tourism. Where people that are totally unprepared hire companies that will figurativly just carry you up a mountain like everest. I mean idiots like this..
