Any weapon fired at a civilian is a war crime. It doesn't matter what kind of munition was used. The problem with cluster bombs is that the shooting party, cannot control the result. Signatories of IHL have a responsibility to minimize damage to civilian people and assets. The same reason autonomous weapons are a huge ethical problem.
The sad truth is that the majority of people are treating WhatsApp exactly as a social network. It is there to send memes and stickers. See what others are up to without having to interact. Then mindlessly scroll through reels. Ocassionally purchase something via chat with a corporate bot.
I call it non-progressive pop, or also corporate treadmill music. Because the harmony never gets anywhere or do anything interesting, but always feel like it's moving
There's a high proportion of those two groups that plays third party on PC or even a steam deck. The Switch is just the current Nintendo machine.
Perfected
Press X to doubt
Making something popular via a lot of lying and false marketing is not something I would've thought to read as perfected.
Hey, Munroe is a rather cool and very intelligent engineer. Very witty writer, and awful at drawing. But his philosophy is mid at best. He is not an authority, and is often wrong or common place when it comes to social topics and human affairs. He understands communication in a very techy engineering dimension. There's no need to take his comics as anything but what they are. One white dude's anecdotic commentary on his own very limited experience of the human condition. He knows squat about human communication, sociology, psychology or postmodernism.
When you drain a swamp, you remove clean water and leave filth and slime behind.
Size is only a proof of logistics. Not tech. Physics don't change fundamentally between 6 meters and 120 meters. You learn a lot from scale modeling without the added costs. Starship's real challenge is actually the logistics necessary to fulfill the desired specifications and experimenting with engineering to reach the scale. The most innovative aspect of Starship would be orbital refueling, and they aren't there since the thing hasn't reached orbit yet. SpaceX problem right now is insisting on high turnover engineering, which doesn't work at scale without heavy costs, because it is a logistic problem, not a engineering problem.
You would be confidently wrong. They are artificially de-greened with ethylene. In Brazil it doesn't get cold enough for natural de-greening. Also, having tasted both natural green and de-greened (and naturally de-greened) oranges. Their outer color has no correlation whatsoever to the taste.
No, here war mongering is the correct term. It's a layman's expression to denote a particular political attitude that seeks to stir conflict for political gains or profit. It has no legal connotation either. You might be interested on the term war profiteering, a term that doesn't exist under International Humanitarian Law, but has been discussed for its ethical implications.
