  • They were a movement that was an active militia (trained and armed) that took part in the elections and did not even get enough votes for a single seat in Parlaiment.

  • Yes exactly, also each icmb would qualify (during re-entry they also pickup "some" speed).. but it seems like hypersonic is sort of a marketing sticker thing, like "green" and "low fat".

    The NATO hypersonics that are being worked on should be able to make evasive manouvera at speed, will be interesting to see.

  • Yes, but afaik the hypersonic term applies to weapons over mach 4. NATO also adds additional requirements for hypersonics, such as manourerability. But they have enough speed to qualify.

  • Yes they are, but in this conflict the Russians reconfigured some of them and use them in a ground to ground attackrole.

    They had shortages of other tactical weapons and apparently a nice stockpile of these missiles.

  • The dust.. I can only imagine the dust. But it looks cool! Great work.

  • They are also used against hypersonic missiles the Russians have (kinzal etc.) and ballistics like s300 and s400.

  • Formatting looks off, sure the boy is properly configured?

  • She had something that could be used against her, so it was a matter of time before someone used it.

  • The Roe ruling was one based on a privacy argument that held up. A law explicitly enshrining these rights might have helped.

    There are thousands of pages of legal analysis out there that break down how that should work. The goal would be to explicitly state these rights I stead of allowing interpretation by judges.

  • Jup so let's stop arguing. We agree that women's reproductive rights and right to bodily autonomy should be protected. I get your point, I just see that differently. There is value in also addressing the shortcomings of the defense that could have been used. Like with the military, analysis of failed defense learns lessons for future actions. But this definately does not change the goals, nor who the opposition is.

  • Except it wasn't law, only jurisprudence. And many law scholars warned about the exact scenario that unfolded.

  • The states are the baddies in these cases unfortunately.

  • I reject that way of describing my comment.

    The heinous attack was already ongoing, with the trigger laws, rhetoric and actions (protesting abortion clinics is vile).

    And the only legal recourse and opposition to these actions (that the US law protects) is by changing these laws.

    You can stomp your feet all you want but the mother-killing christian nutbags that planned this scenario knew this, played the game, and won the last battle. Now women are paying the price.

    So yes, lawmakers absolutely are to blame for not codifying into law the protection of reproductive choice. That does in no way mean that they are to blame for the vile actions of the pro-mother killing evangelicals, they can carry their own torch.

    I want to add that your immediate attack on people that mostly align with your desired outcome will most likely alienate your would be allies instead of getting their help... Or maybe that is your plan.

    Edit: and to be clear the victims are the women not the lawmakers.

  • "Some of you may die, but that's a risk I'm willing to take."

    Poor women.

    But a prime example what failing to codify into law does. The pro choice lawmakers failed all these decades to actually create robust laws protecting women's reproductive choice and health. Then Roe fell and there was nothing to hold back the hordes of Christian zealots waiting in the wings. Their intent was clear as some states even had trigger laws that would enact the moment Roe fell.

    You see that now there is a scurry to create several laws that should curtail the president's power, as certain limits existed based on decency, decorum and shame. Now that decency, decorum and shame no longer play a role in politics, only hard and explicit rules help.

  • I think that is the whole point of the pricing strategy. Our fuel carries A LOT of taxes, theirs don't.

  • But, if she did the things she did, then it surely is her own fault, no? Or, as long as you are for the right cause, your past disgressions do not matter?

  • Well this is not strange is it if you can't import the only solution is building things yourself.

    Also companies left and sold their production for cents on the dollar to local buyers making the production domestic.

  • Thank God for the evacuation guidelines.

  • We agree in the most part, and I'm happy the dev they tried to strongarm had a spine and called them out. That put a stop to that pretty quick.

    Any monopolist behavior is bad imho, but I can see room for limited exclusivity. But not copyright, 100 years after the authors death limited... 6 months maybe 12.. that's it.

  • Yeah I sort of get what you are saying. But I see it as less of an issue. The Devs take a pay for timed exclusivity and this helps development. But in the end the exclusivity will go away as devs will in no way keep part of 5heir consumerbase from their product. And I can wait... But I see your point fo sho!
