This is definitely wrong. For example, I know Canada has reactors under construction: https://news.ontario.ca/en/release/1002543/ontario-breaks-ground-on-world-leading-small-modular-reactor

Ah, see I also think the US system is messed up, but for the opposite reason. The US is one of the few places in the world with elected judges, and most of the rest are political appointments. In the rest of the world, there are non-partisan process to select qualified judges. Political appointments for administrative positions are just bad and contributes to the polarization we see today. With elections, I don’t think the majority of voters are actually researching and assessing these down-ballot races, but just voting along party lines. This means, instead of a (TBF, potentially flawed) non-partisan process, you just have the parties selecting judges, giving political parties even more power.

I’m curious how you’re excited for these judicial reform. IMHO, elected judges are a horrible idea.

Israel has not ratified the Rome Statute, so they’re in a very different circumstance than Peru.

It’s been a decade.

Since the Invasion of Crimea, NATO has been placing troops near its boarders with Russia, especially in the Baltics.

It’s literally in the article:

…the U.S. announced on May 28 that it had suspended operations so repairs could be made.

The United Nations said on Friday it had still not resumed transportation of aid from the pier to U.N. World Food Programme warehouses.

I’m not too familiar with historic international law, but most of the ones in modern use are only decades old. So, while the invasion of Hawaii may be immoral and may have broken international norms, I’m not sure if it’s consider to have broken “International Law”.

YotoPhone. They also made a version 2 & 3. Unfortunately, Yota went bankrupt.

…still not a “double standard”

It’s immensely unfair, but I’m not sure I’d call that a “double standard.”

I’m no expert, Israel was accepted as a UN when they pledged to implement the partition plan. They’ve never followed through, so you could argue they lied to get in, but once they’re in, it’s difficult to expel/suspend a member.

It looks like it wasn’t until decades later that Palestine sought UN membership. So it kind of makes sense to say the applicant needs to appease the existing members. You could also argue the partition plan was/is unfair, and many wars have been fought over it. I’m just not sure the situations are similar enough to be a “double standard.”

I don’t understand your question. Can you please explain it?

Maybe the answer is colonialism?

Just because there’s a UN Resolution passed, doesn’t mean everything that’s proposed magically happens. Governments of all levels accept long-term plans, but then they need to do further actions to follow through on those plans (or in many cases, they don’t do anything and those plans just stay as dreams and what-ifs).

Israel is a state because they’ve declared it and the UN has accepted Israel as a member, it’s really that simple. If you want to know why Israel’s statehood was accepted, that’s very, very complicated and involves millennia of history. I certainly can’t condense it here, maybe others could, but I doubt it. I honestly think Wikipedia’s a pretty good source for the history of Israel, and I’d suggest starting the British Mandate and looking back if you need more context.

Israel has been accepted as a UN member. Palestine has not.

Note the word “Plan”. You’ve provided a proposal, which has not been implemented.

Can it? Certainly. People have been doing so for years now.

Should you? None of us can answer that for you. None of us know your needs, your technical proficiency, or your willingness to put up with bugs/quirks

If you’re interested, you should go read/listen/watch the experiences of users and ask questions once you have some specific ones.

You really can’t compare any other country to the Great Firewall of China.

I figured, I was looking for the model number so we could see specs, age, etc.

What model? I’m running Linux Mint on a ThinkPad x201 and love it!

… but if you take inflation into account if the price is stable then goods are getting relatively more expensive cheaper.
