“This complicates our plans for a land bridge to Kaliningrad!”

How long before Iran is sending missiles toward Israel that are equipped with anti-anti-missile missiles? Then it’s an anti-missile arms race all the way down.

You’ll notice that the report doesn’t estimate whether they died before or after Israel’s incursion.

Ain’t no party like a 50 cent party 'cuz a 50 cent party don’t stop.

No. Humans in aircraft are on the way out. Drones are the future. When the drones are significantly cheaper than the missiles used to shoot them down, logistics inevitably wins.

China is having massive economic problems currently. Who is OP trying to convince otherwise? Ignore the cape. Watch the bullfighter.

Uh, have you seen the Chinese economy recently?

Also, when your economy is doing so poorly it’s easy to do better. When your economy is doing well, it’s more difficult to improve.

Mathematically, if I give a naked homeless person with no worldly possessions a sandwich, they have infinitely more wealth. It’s still just a sandwich though.

For anyone who’s been following along, Russia should have been able to take Avdivka over a year ago. For it to have taken this long really says everything. If this is a “turning point” in the war, there is still quite a lot of room for optimism.

I feel like we’re getting hung up on the definition of genocide. It is reasonable to believe that what is happening in Gaza does not fall under the definition. That doesn’t make it any less horrible. People are having a semantic argument while others perish.

Those countries can’t swing Florida election results

“European settlers” in the sense that they hadn’t been in Israel since the Romans kicked them out in '65 for causing too much trouble with all their messiahs and religious zealotry.

There’s going to be a lot of conservative men clamoring for UBI, or more likely, cutting off their own nose to spite their face.

The whalebone hoop-skirt industry would like to vociferously disagree!

Beyond just trying to maintain a reaction, we’ll need a design that allows for the extraction of working energy. At present, all designs require tons of additional energy to keep them cool. We’re very far from any design that is power positive in a real sense. Any time you ask one of the fusion fanboys about this there’s a lot of hand waving, but I’ve never seen any actual proposals to extract working heat from the reactor. Any designs that require supercooling are especially problematic. It’s really difficult to extract heat capable of turning a turbine through the supercooled magnetic containment.

Fusion will happen, but not before a whole lot more money and time (in decades) disappears into the money pit.

When websites start blocking clients that don’t implement the wei handshake, you’ll be forced to use one that does if you want to visit those sites. Firefox will either adopt it or become a second rate browser.
