It has been going since 2014...
Russia just fucked up bad, and now people are putting down the foot. Russians need to see that this "special operation" has run into a wall a bit.
And now that wall ist growing spikes and a moat, and catapults on top. Every idiot needs to understand its about time to gtfo for RU - and the dying will stop from one day to the next.

Go to r/space and search India or ISRO (India’s Space Program) you’ll find threads with bunch of deleted comments and the comments which are not removed would be about why is everyone so racist there.

And this is why sympathy strikes and general strikes should not only be a right but a base requirement for a free and moral society.
If you can not enact sympathy strike if you see your fellows suffer, you are no better than a serf.

> Space really is unimaginably huge.
"Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space."

Reply to comment by Lugonn in France deploys 13,000 police as anti-pension reform protests gather momentum — The Interior Ministry said it expected disorder at Tuesday's protests and had deployed 13,000 police -- 5,500 of them in Paris -- to counter it by Molire
What a smart ... you are. Police killed 2 people today in France. Even Europe’s leading human rights watchdog has accused the French police of using “excessive force”: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/mar/25/french-police-accused-of-using-excessive-force-during-pension-protests

In France, no they can't. We have a right to strike.

Wow, the description of this black hole took my breath away; 30 billion times the size of our sun.
If there is one like this there has to be others like this somewhere deep in the universe.

The down votes you've gotten to this should give you a pretty good indication about how far off you are.

It means that the black hole already has that much mass in it. There is no known limit to the mass gain of a black hole. It is unlikely to encounter as much matter to grow say twice again it's size since space is so vast and matter so sparsely distributed over it. But if you introduced the entirety of matter in the universe to a single point and it didn't have velocity away from that point it would all merge under gravity to form the biggest black hole possible. Empty space around it would loose all meaning since there would be nothing in it. Also supermassive black holes host the galaxies around them not the other way around.

It seems that it’s not the biggest? What is standing out for this black hole apart from the detection method?

Reply to comment by SuteSnute in Philippines' Marcos to shut out ICC after losing drugs war appeal by VanGoghEnjoyer
Don’t put words in my mouth, obviously im irked and is talking about outside groups actively interfering with our internal affairs, not with the criticisms. What would the cushy members of ICC know of our pains?
What made you think what Portugal did will work for us? These approaches worked for 1st world countries, not for everyone, specially ours since addiction has a lot of factors, culture, behaviors, economy, etc… factors that are incredibly hard to fix in 3rd world countries like ours and will be there for decades, are we supposed to wait? Have you lost a love one to a druggie? I did, more than once.

We certainly have the precision technology to automate the assembly of phones however, due to the dexterity required, variety of tasks and constant re-calibrating every year for a new model, people are still the cheaper option…

Imagine being poor in one of the richest places on Earth and being arrested for it, imo that's wild.
I get that begging is usually associated with a series of problems, but what are you supposed to do if you're actually that miserable that begging is your only option?
​
>Major General Jamal Salem Al Jallaf, Director of the General Department of Criminal Investigation, stated that the anti-begging campaign has significantly reduced the number of beggars annually, thanks to the strict and decisive measures taken against those apprehended.
It doesn't sound like they're trying to solve the problem, but rather just remove the symptoms, idk

Also, the mayor of the country’s largest city is also from Pakistani descent.

Jokes aside, the shit we've learned about our cosmology in just the past [checks notes] I've been told that the comment I was about to right is already out of date - let's just say "the shit we're learning about our cosmology on an ongoing basis" is pretty fucking amazing. Less than a century ago we thought the Milky Way was the whole universe, today we've got galactic super clusters and we're contemplating many worlds theory.
Just in case nobody has told you, there's something you need to know: You're living in the future. Our morals haven't yet caught up to our intellects, but as far as scientific advancements and borderline miraculous technologies are concerned this is an astounding time to be alive.
I can haz more GMOs, lab grown meats, vaccines, and deep space satellites, plz?
(What? I saw a rage comic the other day, it brought back memories.)

Yeah, let's see about that.
Some money will defo go to the arsenal of democracy - that's just a no brainer if idiots think they can keep escalating on their neighbor's place, and fix a shitty coup attempt with artillery on residential areas. Should surprise absolutely no one.
The other thing that this is going to do is to ramp up German arms production like you haven't seen in a long time. This step is the gov signing off on it. Nobody really wanted to do it, but Putin and parts of Russian society have clearly illustrated there is no way around it. Defense industry will go on a hiring spree.

Yes all things happen slowly one step at a time. Today it's assembled, tomorrow more parts of the supply chain will move and it's a feedback loop. Countries don't industrialize in a single day.
