Andrew N. Rubin argues, " Orwell claimed that we should be attentive to how the use of language has limited our capacity for critical thought just as we should be equally concerned with the ways in which dominant modes of thinking have reshaped the very language that we use.

Gas masks have a limited useful lifespan that is related to the absorbent capacity of the filter.

However, the processor load capacity was limited, and even simple computers frequently contained bus amplifiers.

According to several linguists, neurocognitive research has confirmed many standards of language learning, such as: " learning engages the entire person ( cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains ), the human brain seeks patterns in its searching for meaning, emotions affect all aspects of learning, retention and recall, past experience always affects new learning, the brain's working memory has a limited capacity, lecture usually results in the lowest degree of retention, rehearsal is essential for retention, practice does not make perfect, and each brain is unique " ( Sousa, 2006, p. 274 ).

Grandstand redevelopments and occupational health and safety legislation have now limited the maximum seating capacity to approximately 95, 000 with an additional 5000 standing room capacity, bringing the total capacity to just over 100, 000.

The UK, in whose occupation zone most of the steel production was located, had argued for a more limited capacity reduction by placing the production ceiling at 12 million tons of steel per year, but had to submit to the will of the U. S., France and the Soviet Union ( which had argued for a 3 million ton limit ).

This allows the user to augment the device's limited patch storage with a computer's much greater disk capacity, and to share custom patches with other owners of the same instrument.

Some scholars argue that conspiracy theories once limited to fringe audiences have become commonplace in mass media, contributing to conspiracism emerging as a cultural phenomenon in the United States of the late 20th and early 21st centuries, and the possible replacement of democracy by conspiracy as the dominant paradigm of political action in the public mind.

Social critics have adopted this term to refer to how the synthesis of paranoid conspiracy theories, which were once limited to American fringe audiences, has given them mass appeal and enabled them to become commonplace in mass media, thereby inaugurating an unrivaled period of people actively preparing for apocalyptic millenarian scenarios in the United States of the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
