Even how much im against this as a principal, its the right thing to do.

As an European this election is probably more important for me than the average American. Trump wins, and Europe's safety is at risk. Let Putin take Ukraine, and Putin will take more land as its endorsed by the US president.

Please don't fuck this up.

So dumb. The captain can be partially blamed if there was negligence considering planned routes going through areas with bad ZOC (zone of confidence), or bad knowledge of depth in easier terms. Which might be a reason as they were surveying the area. But that's pure speculation.

Trying to blame anything on the captain being a woman is just ridiculous. The navigator on watch could also run the ship aground due to bad navigation, without the captain even being included in the process.

Every time a grey ship is in an accident people open their cake holes. Let the investigation do its thing, then come back next year spewing your shit.

Sure sounds cool not inhaling poison put in the air by corporate greed. But what about the commercial real estate investors? Won't you think about their infinite growth for moment?

I'm not claiming to know anything about this specific flood. Sure might be sick idk.

But there's a huge amount of crisis' that got greater because of how we built, not what happened.

Take the flood in Pakistan last year. The same flood happening 50 years ago in the same area wouldn't be such a catastrophe. What caused it to be so severe was the amount of people who had settled in a valley which is carved out by smelting water from glaciers. Building smarter is the most rational solution for short term gains. Stabilizing the climate is a much greater endeavour, and might be impossible short term.

For real though.

If you settle in an area famous for being a flood plain, you can't be mad about it when the plain floods.

Germany are now doing experiments with controlled flooding of old flood plains to channel water away from too narrow man made canals. The flooding also kills invasive plants as they were only allowed to grow because of the geological changed forced upon the land.

interesting watch on the topic.

Lar summer in Norway we had a flood matching the regular high points. Only issue was that the last high point was almost 100 years ago. So people stopped caring and the areas close to the river was regulated as river front houses.

Climate change is an issue. But people being dumb as fuck is an even greater one.

Probably the same way companies tried to sue The Pirate Bay because the bay had lost them more money than existed in the world economy.

Isn't that the intention though?

If you die early the state can pocket your pension.

Really?

That like making a Tenet based TV series, but as a sitcom.

I bought some SNES shells to put on my joy cons. Was pretty cheap and decent fun. Even switched to hall effect sticks.

Didn't even need Nintendo to produce them and sell them as a premium. eXtremeRate and probably many others let you make your own limited edition. As long as you don't want any copyrighted trims like logos.

[-] Crampon@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

I don't get the hype for the anniversary edition.

I haven't heard it would launch, and one day I saw people offering 2000$ for one on a trade site. My only thought was "wow, glad im not a fucking idiot like these guys".

I sure might be stupid, but not that stupid.

Thanks. Im going gmto give the open air model a try in the near future as soon as a nice offer comes up. Safety is more important than bass. On the treadmill I can opt for more closed ones.

Nitrogen has become this Schrödingers gas.

When used in executions it's extremely painful and terrible. When used for assisted Euthanasia it's calm and painless.

So what is it? Not arguing that death penalty is fine. But the debate of the method shouldn't be riddled with lies as it poisons the debate climate.

I'm looking for some new ear buds for running and other purposes, but finding anything suited for a mediocre active lifestyle seems hard.

Now I have a pair of Sennheiser sport true wireless. What works is the audio quality and reliable charging. What doesn't work is the very clunky charging case, and any trace of rain will adjust the volume, change the song or pause the track. A stable 3/5 product. Wearing a hood just amplifies the problem as a tiny amount of moisture will interfere.

I'm not trusting Sennheiser for a new pair right now as their Momentum True Wireless 3 buds had a faulty charging tech. Both me and my partner had to send them in and receive new ones. Bad for us, bad for the environment.

Any recommendations for a pair with a nice balanced sound quality, good case, and reliable controls in all conditions?

I think om going insane. When you carry it by the handle it's so long that it may scratch the ground, but the handles are too short to cary it properly over your shoulder. What's going on? How are they so popular?

Why not Chief in command or Commander of chiefs or similar?

The sentence basically means Commander in biggest or Commander in most important. It's a strange structure.

US and other Nato countries should not bother with protecting merchant ships attacked in the Red sea. The shipping companies have to rely on the navies of their flag states for protection. The 10 largest flag states for shipping are:

Panama, Liberia, Marshall Islands, Hong Kong, Singapore, Malta, Bahamas, China, Greece, Japan

Hong Kong is now China. But there is still an independent shipping tax haven there. The shipping companies avoiding taxes in western countries does not deserve protection from the same countries.

They can get a return of the tax money by letting the mentionee countries send their navies. Greece is a NATO country, so NATO can participate to some degree with support to the flag state navies.

*Guess this was a popular opinion.
