You don't get it. Using diesel won't cost u less.
1.Have u tried to think about a cost of generating 1kw by diesel vs electric energy like hydro power?
2.Have u calculated servicing and maintenance cost of diesel engines vs electric powered?

There is no where a diesel trains can be cheaper than electric.

You are funny

have you used an electric car before? Infact, let me not even go that far, have you used a hybrid car before?

Ask anyone who has and you will marvel at the cost of servicing anything electric.

jl115:
it clearly states religious customs.... Which you said doesn't exist...

And I clearly told you that the person was referring to dogma

GeneralDae:
You are the one who needs to be educated on this my man.
Take Saudi Arabia pre and pro Muhammed as an example. Almost all of the entire culture of the Arab world today is based on islam and their interpretation of it. It's very different from Arabia pre Muhammed.
Religion is defined as a way of life of a people.

Good you know you cant compare the two...
The arab world had their Persian culture which was fine and beautiful and then Men of religious dogma came to use those dogma to suppress their culture...
why do you think their societies cant hold?

The things this person is referring to are religious dogma

Kazikazi:
Not me who think that way,but your women who spend a fortune buying wigs and forcing their skin to look white by applying those hard chemicals

Seems you dont know that your women even do it...

caucasian women are bleaching and wearing wigs

GeneralDae:
Culture itself is largely influenced by religion and vice versa. That's the point.

Then you need some education on what culture is.


Stop trying to mix these things up

Culture is a collection of Customs, social behaviour and ideas... These things even develop before religion can even exist.

theTranscriber:
What exactly are you trying to say?
Were you so stupid that you didn't know who Bantu were yet you called us Bantu

Almost all African countries purchase Caucasian hair so what the fucck are you saying?

West African women are still finer than Tanzanian women

If you like cry

how do you pronounce this name ?

Holi shit ?

seems you dont know what beauty is .... you think beauty is in the colour of the skin.

Kazikazi:
Son,don't put me to test,it will end in tears for you.
Do u know,one province in TZ is enough to expose those wig wearing women of yours. Ours don't buy tonnes and tonnes of lightening creams trying to look "otherwise"

GeneralDae:
Every societal custom have their basis in the religion of that society, from ancient sumeria and Egypt to Roman Catholic Christian Europe in the middle ages to African customs and all around the world. Men have always developed their customs and traditions based on the wil of the gods at least up until the 18th century enlightenment. The enlightenment also would never have happened without a combination of many factors of which the christian religion itself was the major anchor.

it seems you need a bit of education in sociology to understand what customs are..

A society customs developed through it societal settings, it is a pattern of behaviour that is characteristic of life in it social setting.
It develops completely devoid of religion but influenced by it cultural idea.

Acadavah1:
I am not talking about mechanical to electricity you dumb, that is your own argument. I am talking about chemical energy/Diesel to finally electricity. Where did you get that 95%? You better shut up if you don't understand something. Only 30% of the energy in Diesel fuel is available as energy at the end. Thats why I told you 1litre of Diesel gives you 3kwh. You can go to even wikipedia or find an Electrical engineer to educate you. Don't reply me about this we better stop here.

You are quite dumb if you dont know that The operation of any thermal unit coverts mechanical energy to electrical energy, using fuel at 95% efficiency and above.

The only time a diesel plant will covert diesel at 30% efficiency is when the plant is in a car whereby it has to overcome a specific load (converting mechanical energy to Kinetic energy).

You see that you have no understanding of basis chemicals? The electrical energy potential of 1L of diesel is 10Kwh..
The efficiency of the generator using it alternator to take this potential 10Kwh and convert it to electricity using it Mechanical energy to electrical energy convert this potential at 95% efficiency... The remaining 5% is lost to friction and overcoming it crankshaft weight.

I dont need an engineer to educate me... I'm an engineer myself..

If you read something and dont understand, come and ask me.

there is nothing like religious customs

jl115:
based on their religious customs

jl115:
Societies across the globe have all evolved according to religion of that society this is a fact.... Go read bit of the work done by Jordan Peterson and Friedrich Nietzsche

Societies have not evolved based on religion but based on their Customs.

It just happens to be that religion play an important part in all societies

Abohboy:
the stigma agaisnt homosexuality is literally based off of the bible because it was from the bible that society started viewing it as an abomination go and study gender concepts in pre colonial Africa and see how there was no stigma or discrimination against it

no it's not based off the bible.
It is simply based out of tradition and custom (in Africa), in Europe, it is based off the bible and in the middle East, it is off the Quran.

There Is nothing like gender concept in pre colonial Africa and homosexual nonsense is not a gender issue as there are only 2 genders.

Acadavah1:
The household cost 0.061 and business. 0.131usd. The fuel efficiency of diesel generator is 0.3 or 30% not 99% what's wrong with your head?

Even for 0.18usd price you get 5.55kwh for 1usd while you get 2.75kwh from generator. Still electricity is cheaper.

i dont know what wee you are smoking

I really dont like chatting with dumb people.. The tariff structure I just posted is even old because the cost of electricity has gone up by 60%.
i see where you are getting your problem from.

A generator is not a moto car with 30% efficiency.

The efficiency of a generator to covert mechanical energy into electricity is 95%
1L of diesel produce 10kwh of electricity, I believe you know what 95% of 10kwh is..

Vlain:
65mph is not HSR. And as for SA you are gradually loosing relevance.Apart from maybe gautrain which apparently still moves slower than most new trains in Nigeria the rest are just minor archaic NGR of two centuries back. same thing like the US. This alone should tell you Nigeria can still surpass u in infrastructure. Admittedly yes u have a more longer line but they are all old useless crappy snail paced NGR. Nigeria on the other hand is transforming her old NGR to SGR and still building new one. I bet once we are done with Atleast Lagos to calabar Atleast let say in the next four year we would have covered the country rail blueprint by Atleast 60%. And if we add k on this -Kano then we are looking at 80% - All SGR.


And yes provide me HSR In the US and stop wasting my time. I promised u a link and I shall deliver as always.

The only one that was happening in US has stalled for 10 years

Those customs are based on society and what they deem fit..

Customs do not come from religion kiddo... For example, it is customary not to go to sea on certain days.. Going to sea can get you into huge trouble on those days.
That is not based on religion but customs generated by the society..

Now, what you are saying is, because you dont like the law so it shouldn't be done

jl115:
and those customs are based of what?? Oh yes religion!!

jl115:
Im specifically talking about criminalising people according to the bible....why else is homosexuality criminalised if not due to religion?..... So why not criminalise eating shell fish? Why not criminalise fat people? Why not criminalise sex before marriage?

Also in my opinion woke culture is a greater threat to our society but not homosexuality specifically.

Did anyone mention crimilising people according to the bible?

Is the bible the place where criminal codes come from?

Homosexuality is criminalised due to customs... A society customs is where they generate their criminal codes...

who lied to you like this?

The unit cost of electricity per kwh for residential users in 0.18 USD..... the average of a Ghanaian per kwh is averagely 400kwh..

Now use you brains and do a proper calculation....
The efficiency of a generator is not 20% but 99%.

Acadavah1:
In Ghana 1kwh of electricity cost 0.061usd per household that is 1usd for 16.39kwh for electricity while

1 litre of diesel cost 1.092usd in Ghana. A litre of Diesel have 38MJ or 10.6Kwh of energy. When you include the efficiency of your Diesel generator that's 3kwh for 1litre which is 1usd for 2.75kwh.

So for 1usd you will get 16.39kwh from electricity and 2.75kwh from Generator. Electricity is cheaper than diesel in most places around the world.

jl115:
lifestyle choices that have a negative impact on the community around it yes.....but being gay isnt one of those lifestyle choices.

Also again....must we criminalise people for eating shell fish because in the bible its mentioned something like 8 times that we shouldn't eat it where as it is only mentioned 3 times that we shouldn't be gay?

and LGBT does not have a negative impact on the community around it?

Like i told you, In the Caribbeans, you cant catch and kill Parrot fish.. Its a criminal offence.

vankelvin:
Will travel on that road in December

hmm

Acadavah:
Where did they say that the cost of electricity is higher than Diesel. Stop being one minded and read it in free way.

It say this, " While prices of diesel fuel are currently low, many analysts predict that the long-term trend is for those prices to increase. Conversely, prices of electricity are falling with the fast-growing use of renewable energy sources. Even at current prices, with the energy conversion rates mentioned above, it is estimated that it is 50 percent less expensive to power a train by electricity than by diesel."

So is it cheap to power your house by Generator or Electricity?

they are hoping on prices of electricity to fall based on new technologies.

Actually, it is cheaper to power my house by generator than the electric grid.

The cost of electricity is very high in Ghana because 60% of our electricity comes from thermal units.

jl115:
criminalised for being gay.... That's what I said.... Should we also criminalise people for eating shell fish?

But you believe other people lifestyles should be criminalised..

Why not? In other countries, it's a criminal offence to catch and kill certain fishes..

You said you dont believe people should be criminalised

jl115:
who said anything about not having laws?

jl115:
so being pro lgbt, and being atheist makes you a coon?

Also you obviously don't no much about Boer culture but it's very very Conservative, and being a staunch Christian myself I see homosexuality as a sin!! However in the same book it says we cannot judge, so I don't.... I don't believe people should be criminalised because they are gay..... Its ret@rded and backwards

In the same book, we are taught that without laws there is no sin. Without laws, there can be no Justice and no freedom.

People cheer when others lifestyle is being legislated on but frown when theirs is legislated on.

without laws, society disintegrates into a jungle

You are reading that the cost of electricity is higher than diesel and they are praying that cost of electricity will drop... yet you are still saying operating electric trains is cost efficient

Acadavah:
Hey No. You should try take your time and study more about electric and Diesel things.

Electric trains are more cheaper operating than Diesel units. You can read this if you want

jl115:
because perspectives are based on personal experience not quantifiable fact

So perspectives makes facts irrelevant ?

jl115:
please of all the people don't be ret@rded!!!

answer the question, how ?

jl115:
that was his original statement..... Just for se context, you are literally siding with a person that blames Africas problems on white people

naa

I've not sided with anyone

jl115:
yes... Nobody thinks exactly like you, people have different perspectives of the world

how do you have a different perspectives on a fact?

So witches invented herbal meds? You are a seriously foolish Gaynian. No wonder we saw Gaynians sitting their black ass on fire and no get burnt. Dwarves like you totally deserve the anti-lgbt law because your anuses are close to your mouths its doubly filthy.

if a whitean was sitting on fire and not getting burnt, you will marvel at the sight and call it magic .... Dumb idiot*.

Dirty fool*... Keeping selling your kids as sex slaves

jl115:
He is totally ignorant in some things.... Like hunting

But he is right about this ret@rded conspiracy of white people keeping Africa down.....

He is also 100% wrong about religion being regressive when religion has played a massive role wrt the western worlds advancement

no white person is keeping Africa down, African politicians are responsible for that.
