What exactly is the question here? This is just a list of random stuff, technologically all over the place. And what about supply chains?

I don’t have experience with VND filters but it looks like it’s two stacked polarizing filters that to turn to let less light though. That means it won’t only darken the image but specifically filter out reflections, which may not be what you want.

What you are describing can be summed up as propaganda. American life is thick with it. And for a country that can’t shut the fuck up about freedom, it’s despicable.

Two of our kids are at schools that use Nextcloud. It doesn’t address all problems, but it solves one big thing: homework. Kids have access to worksheets and handouts, can upload their stuff and have group folders for group work.

The open source platform moodle, which is widely used by schools and unis, seamlessly integrates nextcloud.

Your argument is like saying OneDrive doesn’t fulfill the need of business because it can’t do timesheeting.

CMP outdoor clothing. Bought a pair of hiking shoes and a fleece jacket recently for week of hiking and can only recommend them. Their products are well priced and have good durability.

And taking about footwear, I have to mention Leguano barefoot shoes. Pricy but worth it in my opinion. I have no idea how they manage to get the sole so thin but robust enough that I can easily walk over rough gravel.

Do you want the Aladeen news or the Aladeen news?

Totally dried the swamp!

Trump has threatened the end of Iranian civilization several times now. It’s what he does. He’s a bully and he threatens. And then he pedals back.

The only motivation I can think of is that the religious nutjobs want to bring about the end times. But what if Iran’s glass, life continues and nobody’s raptured? They only have this one chance and I could imagine it scaring them shitless.

Reminds me of long nights in apartments smelling of patchouli, nice. One thing that slightly irritates me though is that the lamp isn’t aligned to the vertical.

How’s the digital euro coming along?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_military_nuclear_accidents lists over 30 nuclear accidents documented by the US armed forces.

And recycling panels and batteries is a lot more appealing than dealing with radioactive waste for hundreds and thousands of years!

No, just no. Nuclear might be better than fossil fuels in the short term, but there’s a lot we’re asking of from later generations.

We have perfectly viable non-poisonous and non-radioactive solutions, but I guess renewables aren’t manly enough for the military.

I don’t get the logic. Not criticizing you, because it’s one good explanation. Who generates the wealth for the billionaire class? Who receives the wealth? You’d want highly educated people and not peasants. Wouldn’t you rather grift in Taiwan than North Korea?

They must be much, much heavier than stock because of all the bulletproofing.

Sunday school did it for me. When you read about a guy against wealth, dogmatism and organized religion and realize where you are.

Here, religion is part of the curriculum and we sent our kids to catholic class. After a few years they were like „it’s just silly stories that don’t make sense“
