The worst is that it will probably increase profit or a quarter or too while running the brand to the ground.

This is the opposite of what a flat earther would say.

The main position of flat-earther (and the backers of conspiracy theories) is that you can’t trust sources, especially official sources of course.

And if you look at things without having the official explanation you start to notice things that, in appearance, do not make sense. Like the fact that you can see farther away than the curvature of earth allows. Of course it’s very easy to explain with the refractory properties of the atmosphere but can be quite difficult to demonstrate.

PS: earth is definitely round, I’m not trying the defend their theory.

Looking into my two year old bed and seeing that he’s staring at me, awake but without a word.

Yeah, you are not making blue chips before doing the green and red chips first.

You are being downvoted but you are asking a very legitimate question.

If Russia nuked a NATO country, what would really happen ?

Would the US respond ? It’s extremely uncertain, especially with the recent election of space Karen and cheetos.

Would France or the UK respond ? It’s a big question and a big discussion is happening currently in Europe.

France nuclear doctrine states that their nuclear arsenal will be used of France’s “vital interests” are at stake. Is Europe part of France’s vital interest ?

If there is a peace agreement they will station troops in Ukraine to prevent another invasion.

The cost and the downtime.

He has some level of clearance due to the work SpaceX is done but even there, he does not have access to some of SpaceX program because he could not get the right level of clearance

I agree with Nixos as well. Setting it up properly for the first time can take some time but after that it’s very much “forget it”.

When I was in Belgium I had to open a specific bank account for it. The money was then blocked on this account.

To release the money both me and the landlord had to find an agreement and sign the release documents. If we could not find an agreement then we would have to go to a judge to decide who gets what.

And at the end you get the deposit back+interests.

I liked this solution, it felt fair for both parties.

Having a vasectomy was the best thing I did for my couple sex life.

Now it’s just worry free creampies all the time.

It’s great that school are surveiling kids.

Does it means that school will finally get an appointed psychologist that meets the kids regularly to check on their mental health ? This way if there is any sign of depression they can easily get some free counseling sessions ?

What do you mean “This is not how we do things here !” ?

I first read it as “Trump will retaliate to Poland’s proposed bitch tax” and I thought that yeah, it’s totally something that could have happened.

A lot of F16 parts were manufactured in Europe as well, it was part of the deal to buy the aircrafts.

I’ve worked for multiple aerospace companies in Belgium and Switzerland that were manufacturing f16 parts.

It’s interesting to see how much nixos grew over the last 2 years, even though the distribution exists since 2003.

This one looked great!

I know it’s not really a truck, it’s a preorder and limited to 80km/h but I love the look of this thing and it cost 10800€

Yes, a few years ago when I was manufacturing aircraft engines (the LEAP specifically) we had three variants of the same engine.

A, B and C for the Airbus A320 neo, Boeing 737 Max and Comac c919.

I would imagine they use the microphone, accelerometer, some processing power and internet connectivity (WiFi or mobile).

Trying to set up a dedicated hardware with ask that would cost way more than just buying a bunch of pixel phone.

Same for the software, on a smartphone you can just create an app that will record and process all the information vs creating a custom firmware on a custom hardware.

I guess there is also the availability of the technicians.

Finding someone to develop and maintain an android app is much easier than finding someone to maintain a custom hardware/firmware.
