Strictly speaking, they're not the same. One is a near-right party, the other is a far right party. Although they ARE cut from the same cloth.

In most countries, recycling paper only made financial sense if they shipped it to poor countries or used prison labor so it could be inexpensively sorted thru. Traditionally it was China, but they stopped accepting it. And letting microorganisms do what they do consumes less resources like electricity and less industrial chemicals.

Any plan that starts with "if people would just", they in fact will probably not

They're also fascist countries where the government can and do set strict limits on content without concern for rule of law or the will of the people.

They're more of a backup option. The point being that it's safer and cheaper than modern high-capacity batteries.

I mean, testing showed it generally got the point across even if people didn't understand why it was dangerous

Someone wished Trump would die of disease (and didn't get banned), I wish him a long life and lots of suffering from disease so reddit banned me for advocating for violence (they'd been targeting me)

That's why there's been a movement for years to end Qualified Immunity and force Police to carry their own insurance like Doctors do. As long as Police face no serious consequences for breaking the Law, they'll continue to be vicious thugs.

Important to note that recycling some things makes sense, like metal. And recycling glass makes sense but sanitizing and reusing bottles makes alot more sense. There's also been a push to compost as much paper product as possible since that makes way more sense than recycling paper. Our green bins now take any brown cardboard with no tape and pizza boxes.

The nearest major city to me has had electric buses since 1940. There are power cables overhead and poles that link the bus to the grid. No need for expensive flammable batteries that need extensive charging.

Since Japan is widely expected to enter into such a conflict, there's strong speculation that any attack on Taiwan would be preceded by a first strike against Japan and US forces there.

and/or they want field data from the real world conditions they're being used in.

It always matters, especially with the increasing importance of Electromagnetic warfare capabilities.

We were talking about Europe so I apparently wasn't specific enough. Most countries in NATO let any capacity they had for large scale land wars wither after the cold war ended since they only saw conflict in small "police actions" in far away lands as being in their future. Things like Kosovo. And, to be fair, even the Russians (Putin aside) were confident that Europe was past large land wars too.

I won't lie, the city has had problems but people's online rants about it are always overblown and always from people who don't live or visit there.

the big secret is that Democrats and Republicans are both on the political right and the mainstream media is owned by billionaires.

Then they came for Blöthar the Berserker

and I did not speak out

because I was not Gwar

Obviously no good can come of this domestically, but since all the Generals will be there instead of doing their jobs, it would also be a window of opportunity for China to invade Taiwan.

In every company I've worked for that had middle managers, they spent 80% of their time trying to justify their position with self-assigned busy work to try to look useful for the company.

Some of us don't "US bad, Russia good". We look at each individual scenario, analyze it, and come to conclusions.
