Most of these issues directly relate to and are consequence of Brexit and no longer having access to the EU’s broader infrastructure and markets tied into the British ones. While they aren’t completely cut off, the additional borders the UK threw up only cut them off from the benefits of being in the EU in the first place.
I mean, if I went around saying I was an emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they’d put me away!
Be as that may be, Trump absolutely selling out the Kurdish Militia that was a long time US ally in the region was not acceptable.
Same plan he made in Syria and Afghanistan. Abandon US allies in the region, hand over all local assets to hostile forces and leak intel like damn spaghetti strainer.
I wouldn’t be surprised if he ordered the DoD to hanf over all the intel we have about Ukraine to Russia and withdraw all other support and recon in the area.

I’m not against renewables but utilizing them as our main source of energy just is not practical for long term, there are serious ecological issues that have been sidelined because of global warming/climate change. Things like rooftop solar only become viable in low density housing, but low density housing is also not good use of land.
I don’t know to laugh or cry when I see peole quote the thousands of years waste storage of nuclear. That’s never been a thing, and never will be.
Land usage is what makes nuclear the most ecologically sound solution. Solar and wind play their part. But for every acre of land, nuclear tops the chart of power produced per year. And when you’re trying to sate the demand of high density housing and businesses in cities, energy density becomes important. Low carbon footprint is great for solar and wind but if you’re also displacing ecosytems that would otherwise be sucking up carbon, its not as environmentally friendly as we’d like.
If you calculate the cost of nuclear and include that you need to store the waste for thousands of years i
This hasn’t been true for decades.
High Level Nuclear waste, aka spent fuel, can be run through breeder reactors or other new gen types to drastically reduce their radioactive half-life to decades and theoretically years with designs proposed in the last few years. Only reason reactors don’t do this is lack of funding and demand for such things, the amount of high level waste produced is miniscule per year. And there are theories proposed already that could reduce ot further but nuclear phobia pushed by the oil lobby prevents proper funding and RnD to properly push those advancements to production.
Yeah it was billed as some Tom Cruise slock like it was some video game movie. Heavy on the cgi but pretty good far as near future sci-fi goes especially with time travel.
This is how dictators exist. The valuables they are stealing from their country get reinvested not just to their personal enrichment but also enriching those people key to keeping them in power, from bodyguard to security departments that spend most of their time monitoring citizens for wrong think.
It would be a mistake to send this amount of material. We should double the shipment. Hell, triple it.
Been seeing a lot of power rangers content lately… Did someone die?!
Look up Clooney’s comments on that movie. Even he is aware how bad it was as it was coming out, don’t recall if his contract prevented him from dipping or he hoped they’d just slide under the radar like Kilmer’s movie had.
True but if I get a place to sleep and food to eat I really don’t I won’t get to sleep in the big bedroom most nights.
Me reading the headline: “Why would Valve make a porn shooter?”
She raped a child and emotionally manipulated them into continuing it after the child attempted to end it. Not nice. Not even close.
I just look for people in my friends list that don’t have it yet and curse them with owning a copy, knowing I won’t hear from them for like 2-4 weeks.
Funny how they praise success these studios achieved before suddenly slamming the door shut and firing those people, but 343 has literally been fucking the corpse of Halo for 12 years now and you still funnel then millions of dollars to keep ruining everything.
Jokes on you, those fur suits cost thousands of dollars cause they are lined with Kevlar! /s
