All India cares about is getting oil and gas for as cheap as possible. Russia has limited markets they can sell their oil to, so India now has tons of leverage and can set their own price. India has their own territorial conflicts with Pakistan and China that they need to worry about. They dont care what Russia does so long as they keep getting cheap oil.
Do you know what the price difference is between a ground based observatory and a space based one? We are talking orders of magnitude in differences. It took an international alliance just to build the ISS in low Earth orbit. We are decades away from being able to build anything on the moon, and we definitely won’t be building visual telescopes there.
The rockets that launch those satellites were developed using tax dollars.
The freedom to ripped off by your employer is a cherished freedom in these parts. Right up there with your freedom to be massacred at school and the freedom to file bankruptcy due to medical debt.
It’s uplifting because it is going to incentivive this titan of industry to create a new company to regain all his wealth. Think about how much wealth will trickle down when he makes another billion dollar company.
I get that, and i also understand that English shifted it’s vowels compared to similar languages. But aside from French, my American brain can kinda figure out how to pronounce Germanic and Romance languages, whereas languages such as Welsh and Polish seems to have applied completely different rules to the Latin alphabet than everyone else.
I love the Welsh, but holy shit that’s not what those letters are supposed to be for. They and the Irish just made a bunch of shit up when they started to standardize spelling. It makes me understand how Russians feel when Westerners use Cyrillic letters improperly.
I can use cash to pay my taxes. I cant pay my taxes with cryptocurrency.
A stock is based on the profits and production of real companies that offer real goods and services. Crypto is based entirely on hype and sunk cost fallacies.
Everyone also has to pass a bunch of security and background checks, which costs money as well. And i am sure the supply chains for staye dinners are more expensive for the same reason
They dont even nneed a sticker. At the self checkout at my store you just hit the “item lookup” and press “avocados” and thoe how many you have
You dont even need the sticker. They are avocados and are distinct and easy for a cashier or moron at self checkout to figure out how to ring up.
But what’s the point if etching them in the first place? They etch cabbage or ears of corn. It just seems overkill for no reason
I’ll never forgive Covid for the Eurovision it took from us. Little Big was supposed to represent Russia in 2020
I know, but it’s frustrating when i search “restaurants in Cityville” and the results show restaurants in Cityville Indiana instead of my homestate. Or i search for “T-Mobile stores near me” and they list off ones 3 counties over instead of the ones near me. I understand that it is a privacy thing, but it is very annoying.
Same thing happens when i look up items on the grocery store website to see if they have something i need. Firefox seems to think i live over an hour away in Dearborn Michigan, so i have to adjust my location manually every time. I understand why it happens and i can accept it , but that doesn’t mean it isn’t frustrating.
Maybe it is a firedox issue, but i have serious issues with location based searchs on DDG. Like, results in the next state over sort of bad.
No audit is well intended. The whole ppint of an audit is to find duplicitous and fucked up shit.
Depends on what you mean by “thwart”. Facewatch is clearly calling all false positives a success, so if someone shows up in a facemask and the system says I am shoplifting, thats a successful prevention. Companies that do “prevention” of something like this can just call a success whatever they want.
I like to listen to a new album every Friday. You’re streaming platform will recommend “New Albums for you” and just listen to one. Sometimes it’s great,sometimes it isn’t, but it is new and fun to explore.
Israel has been massing forces on the Lebanon border and saying they will invade for months now. At what point is the Lebanese government allowed to defend itself?
