Given that Iran is getting bombed but no nuclear power is kind of shows the value of nuclear deterrence.

OP wants to post videos, not watch them. Nebula is invite only and generally only invites those with a decent body of work.

Everyone. Iran isn’t going to abide by the international order if the international order is going to allow it to get bombed in a war of aggression.

This is being done as it is the only card Iran can realistically play to get international pressure to get this to not happen in the future.

Some juices aren’t sweet enough on their own, cranberries being a major example. For those juices, some sweetener is added.

If the consumer doesn’t care, it is high fructose corn syrup because it is cheap. If consumers do care, they will claim it is 100% juice and use apple juice as the sweetener since apple juice is relatively cheap and neutral tasting.

I’m not surprised at the reaction of the various Gulf nations. While Iran doesn’t deserve to be attacked like it is, it isn’t like Iran was an ally to other Gulf countries.

Markets are global, but North America is somewhat shielded as the continent only has so much export capacity. Along with now controlling Venezuelan oil trade, I can see the USA picking winners and losers.

The increased energy costs will also likely cause an increased investment burn rate.

But it worked. This kind of shit happens in diplomacy all the time.

And now Israel has a made up award it can give to other leaders as a tool of diplomacy.

It was more Soviet than Chinese, but I agree with the sentiment.

Well, awards have to get invented at some point.

I can also see an award like this being useful for the future.

I’m not surprised, due to the combination of how Chinese lives have improved and how American lives haven’t.

I’m such a mix that really can’t claim a single European heritage. My family has mixed old traditions together and tossed out others for others which conformed more to where my family was.

I don’t see the need to be X enough for something.

Well, when Republicans are in power.

These sorts of attacks is what the US military has been investing in capacity to complete for decades. This is why there has been an investment bleeding edge tech which costs insane amounts of money to develop.

I feel like it’s a continuation of what we’ve already seen with digital animation. You can do traditional ink animation, but no one does it any more because digital is so much cheaper.

This is typical for international sporting events.

But it is the advanced stage which is causing the strife.

Also, understanding that the programs that I mentioned weren’t available to all, they were available to enough to judge their past against the present. A white working class member of society whose family had access to programs to buy a house in the suburbs isn’t going to think about racial inequality when judging their current economic position compared to their parents and grandparents. They are going to compare the economics of the two eras and see that the economics of today are a lot harsher than before.

Yeah. You have a large number of attractive and poor people trying to get prestigious roles and a few gatekeepers who know they can get what they want from at least some of them.

I wouldn’t be surprised if a human was cloned. The issue right now seems to be resolving the ethical issues over the technical ones.
