Reply to comment by GoodTechnician in Israel refills the Sea of Galilee, supplying Jordan on the way by fuckmacedonia
I mean, both nations rely on desalination for a stable water supply. There are many unnecessary uses of fossil fuels, but guaranteeing a stable water supply sure isn’t one of them.
It’s not reasonable to expect countries to forego stability of water supply for the sake of using a bit fewer fossil fuels.

Liberalism is right-wing ideology. It is so in the US too. The US doesn't have a real left.

Maybe it's because "down the street" is 10 miles and the data points show the cluster around the market, not the lab.

Centre-right?
Fuck me I wish they were centre right. Fuckers have got antivaxxer and climate denier members in parliament. There’s nothing centre about the liberals or nationals.

Sorry to hear your friend had to postpone his wedding in Peru but I think it was a wise decision.
In this uncertain situation things can easily go from bad to worse. It is very risky to fly into the country now.

you understand that the contract had multiple phases and at the end of each of these phases it had an opt out clause where we would pay them for work done. this is what happened, the french knew it could happen and knew it might happened.
this is not the fuck up, the fuck up is telling them over text msg lmao.

Doesn't seem great for the lower classes.
"In India, the share of the national income of the bottom 50% has decreased by around 40% since 1980 (Figure 7). In contrast, the share of the national income of the top 10% has increased by around 80% (Figure 8) and the share of the top 1% has increased by around 180% since 1980 (Figure 9). "

Reply to comment by ASD_Detector_Array in Ukraine calls for faster weapons supplies as Russia presses eastern offensive by redcccp
Sure, that argument does not disprove that there are other motives.
But I have yet to see someone make a convincing argument supporting the idea that Russia losing slowly is more effective than them losing fast. A retreat would be a political nightmare for Putin.

Buy them out with your own grants then. The modern academic model is clear in the absence of funding: publish or perish. If you can't get money you can't publish. If someone else provides it then researchers will take it.

French boats need to be refueled every 6-8 years and can only be refueled in France. i'm sure you can understand why this would never be workable.
we asked them to design a conventional boat, they choose to modify a nuke boat then start from new.

You ever see the another American see the difference in how other countries treat identity and cause a culture shock that can seen on a richter scale?
I can imagine an American showing his "23 and me" results saying he is proud to be 90% German and Germans looking in horror thinking he is some kind of race purist because other cultures care about cultural knowledge and language skills to call yourself something instead of genetics.
You see this talked about a lot on indigenous and Mexico subs with American expats, but I wonder if European countries have the same problem.

Except Brazil aligns with imperialist Russia. They might not be sending equipment but the economic alliance fuels the war.

road map will drop in march so we will find out then, the only way it could even take 40 years if we dont go with an off the shelf design and build them all in aus. In all likelihood we will be using a nuke boat built in the USA by mid 2030 or early 2040
