Everyone underestimates how HEAVY the collider is, how often sensor modules need to be changed and mainly that the ring is just one part of the entire group of big buildings you need for this.
You need to create different beams of different makeup from different sources, different loops to make the beam hit sonething and maybe return the products into the loop, you need extensive sensory equipment where the collision happens and different sensors for different experiments.
It is just SOOOO much cheaper, easier and better to build it underground instead of in space.
Dude, Arlosoroff was killed over this. To present this as if "the" founders of Israel were in agreement with this is disingenuous. This caused factions to completely go at each others throats.
The agreement was controversial [...] in the Zionist movement.[23] As historian Edwin Black put it, "The Transfer Agreement tore the Jewish world apart, turning leader against leader, threatening rebellion and even assassination."[24]
The Zionist Congress voted narrowly in favor and in a time when the US turned boats full of Jewish People back to Europe and Britain was restricting Jewish immigration into Mandatory Palestine, I think this is understandable, because this presented one of the very few ways to legally leave Europe and salvage some of your funds.
And calling the Zionists, that opened ways for Jews to flee a radically worsening Germany, allies of the Nazis is nothing but a big fat lie.
Capitalism because for many corporations there is monetary value in removing the privacy of citizens, this is in fact the main business model for corporate groups like Alphabet and Meta.
Democracy because it's easier to get votes by telling people that you want to protect them from the bad ones and need to find the bad ones and that the people with nothing to hide have nothing to fear, than to tell them the truth: Control is an illusion, there can be no absolute safety, existing in a free nation will always be a balance act between protecting citizens versus protecting citizens rights and there are no easy answers to complex problems like crime or terrorism.
Who could have known that traditional manufacturers who have been building cars for decades have reasons to do it the way they did?
Surely not the man who reinvented the subway (but shitty) reinvented content moderation (but shitty) and reinvented the car (but shitty).
How come "normal" Teslas with traditional coachwork are selling, well not great, but good and every time Musk thinks he's the genius who'll singlehandedly completely reinvent a very competitive product he just creates a worse version?
Hah! Reminds me of the German word Flugzeugträger... if spoken in a cologne accent the three Gs will all be pronounced differently and none of them actually like G.
Hmmmm... I'd argue against them being communists, rather they are what I'd like to call "communist party buorgeoisie".
The North Korean System has much in common with fascism. But I don't know if I'd call them fascists.
For sure they are evil authoritarian goons, but fascism is more than that, because on top of being build on authoritarianism, nationalism, militarism and often racism, it is also expansionist, anti-liberal, anti-communist and anti-socialist, it is overwhelmingly corporatist, placed firmly in the spectrum of the right. And - in a surprising twist - anti-conservative in it's revolutionary mindset.
North Korea for one is clearly left-nationalist authoritarian. I'd even go so far as to call it a Stalinist system. It is anything but corporatist except where it is necessarily subservient to China.
China on the other hand has left its communist days behind and has become a major capitalist player on the world stage, creating an export-focused capitalist society with strong corporatist economy. And holy shit, if China isn't chauvinist expansionist I don't know who qualifies... So yes, they can likely be classified as fascists.
Best example comes to us via the BBC above, during WW2 they never called the Nazis wicked or evil, but they did not and did not need to have Nazi-apologists on air to present a "fair and balanced" view Fox-News style.
As long as you present opinion as opinion and reporting as reporting and refrain from loaded language in your reporting you're perfectly fine. Could it be better? Yes. But while you might not have arrived at "morally good", you have clearly left "morally bad".
Texas passed the CROWN-act to combat hair-based racial discrimination because that very same school already lost two cases where they discriminated black youths because of their hair.
Texas, in this case, is actually siding with the student through the CROWN-Act that was specifically adopted because of court cases over hairstyles that damn school already lost before.
What... What's wrong with Earthdawn? It's a great game with stunning lore and good mechanics.
