nobody changed anything, so why should have anything changed? development does not appear by pure wish or magic, nor by letting time passing by, people have to do it, or it just doesn't get done.

maybe its that cheap school (or public building) toiletpaper from ages ago that still contained ... woodchips?

i can clearly see the sub marine on the picture !!! look in the harbour (shown on the left image) there is a subways and right before the entrance there is a marine ... not to mention he has the sub of the day in his hand and walks away which looks a bit like drunken to me and "sunken" could just be a bad typo... maybe too few pixels for everyone to see it, but its there !!!

don't fall for propaganda, fall for turboprops or ghandi, for submarines or cranes, maybe for the shadows (of babylon5) if you insist but plz not for propaganda !

... that phrase "formed on stolen land" ... to who reminds me that again?

ok, not sure, but...

• its billionaires..
• they tried to put additional sand there to "protect" their luxury vacation homes they had literally "build on sand" and damage wildlife while they go, but were stopped by a court ruling
• now one of them accusing another of "stealing sand" and sues him to put "the stolen sand back", so he can be forced by court to put sand there. and maybe more than he ever "stole".
• it sounds like only lies is what they have
• its only billionaires, nothing good comes from them.

maybe the court should rule that he has to put sand there personally by his own hands (no tech other than a bucket is allowed) that he has to carry without machinery, cars or anything from at least 5km away until his neigbour is fine with the situation. if the neighbour is fine quite quickly, the court should fine that neighbour due to abusing the court with false claims. if not, that sandy billionaire still can fine his neigbour to help him. maybe...

but anyway that situation stinks.

Now see, that’s all more reasonable.

That is only "more reasonable" when you ignore the reality that "disliking some parts" of a resolution usually is followed by not voting, but they explicitly voted against thus made any argument why they did not vote 'for' that right a clearly undenieable lie.

maybe the world should follow their vote to the point, those countries voting against should be prevented from receiving food from other countries for free, especially fishing industry that rips off resources on the open seas or near other countries should be physically stopped with force if they come from or go to the countries that voted against a right for food for everyone. That would only be reasonable as they explicitly wanted such a right to not exist, thus it should be explicitly removed in practice from them too. The countries who voted for a right for food then just put a freely increaseable tax on every gram(!) of food exported to those countries that don't want food to be a right for everyone. And then the against voters can have what their wish they explicitly voted for. i like that idea: those who don't want food as a right, shouldn't have that right then. period.

The US is evil and wrong

isn't even trying to keep an innocent behind bars already a type of kidnapping attempt and every second of delay that it caused an actual act of kidnapping?

and the ones finding apes on a planet just short ahead or into the beginning of those 10000 years might think "well lets teach them how to stack stones and let them call us gods for just showing some of our million years old and cheap replicated tech gadgets pewpew, how amusing! but now lets go on, this planet has water but way too much oxygen and also there is axial precession that would change weather over only few hundrets of thousands of years if not less, not the planet of choice for eternals like us, duh!"

never eat credit cards with no debt on it, always wait for a sufficient amount to disappeat 😁

i think it was not the whole hull but one of the materials, the hull was made of that had expired. well, carbon fibre has its strenght when pulled, but when pushing it bends. but if one uses resin on the fibre, then it gets some strenght when pushed too. similar to steel and concrete, while steel can really be pulled a lot, concrete is way better when pushed than steel. steel is quite stable when pushed too, but thats not its main strength. i think the resin was what really held the pressure in the sub, not the carbon fibre, but with this i only have that dangerous type of half-knowledge i'ld have to bring to expert level before doing something stupid (like depending on that to be fully true without really knowing).

in general things often last longer than their expected "minimum" to be used without concern. but in practice one would have to test for damage or if its worn out (like its done with airplane parts at fixed intervals) even without using materials of bad quality. but that was AFAIK what oceangate's management decided to explicitly NOT check the sub for - despite internal demands to do so.

i would not say its not possible to build a secure pressure hull out of carbon fibre, or out of carbon fibre of not the best quality, or a hull of a different shape than a sphere, or a hull out of different materials with different bending behaviors under pressure, or when such components are "glued" together on the edges that do the different bending, but ALL of this at the same time and without even checking at least after a new maximum depth was reached? not to mention crackling sounds after which heared one would want to double check. Even the wright brothers seemed more cautious to me.

today one would at least get some wear level statistics with unmanned vehicles in a slightly deeper than intended depth to have security margins and afterwards throughout checks for the parts that are important, single points of failures or are one of the proudly new developed.

I see the simpleness in the argument.

yet not building something because its products cannot be sold overpriced is a rule in cap, not a problem in soc.

However here's a map for you to view the "success" rate of pumping more and more:

and "measurements are in cubic kilometers"

lately i saw a documentation about farmers in the us. poor people, literally loosing everything build up for many generations only due to the groundwater abuse. and no, digging deeper wells is not "always" an option, it stops serving, when there is no groundwater any more (surprise!). and the rain does not fill it up again as fast as it is pumped out for profit. and in the end, the only "profit" you get literally is dust in the wind. what a gain!

well ("well", what a word joke here) now i just guess you got the order and texts of the pictures in the meme a "slight" bit wrong.

yeah, thats exactly what i am saying, most of the money ever printed sits in places it will never leave, so IMO there are no 5trillion available on the market and the cash flow does not allow to take out even a "little" bit (speaking in 1e12 terms) before things collapse for the majority.

oh yes, printing money works exactly like that, it was just printed in the past and nowadays they just increase numbers in databases: plopp and the value of that currency and especially everything that is bound to it decreases, ripping you of what you have saved without even touching your bank account.
