  • Maybe they can trade solid chunks of fuel for some of those tasty Russian MREs on the black market. I heard due to corruption they don't get any, so there must be lots

  • I have not been able to find one. Tehran Times won't load either. General theme with Regimey stuff. Topwar and whatnot

  • Samir Amin's got some good writing abt the lack of capital controls of European feudalism & why that + the need to monopolize certain natural resources led to imperialism

  • I wrote out a long comment and deleted it, might come back to this, but check out world systems & dependency theory guys.

    I really really recommend Eurocentrism (2nd edition) by Samir Amin

  • eMac, age 7. i concerned myself primarily with clarisworks, making nested folders, and age of empires 2. my siblings and i argued about strategy in age of empires 2 a lot. i think i am the worst rts player of all time.

    i was very good at deimos rising and otto matic and was the only one of us who could beat them

    Had no idea though

  • In critical situations without proper plumbing, you even see things like Dubai trucking in water and trucking out poop (!!!) or the Isn't'realis trucking in water to make fucking semiconductors. Which was considered for TSMC Arizona plant (who needs the Colorado River!!! water sources are all in your head) until we just like, scared them off by not even playing ball with them.

  • A source is like something you can bottle from. I don't think buying gallon bottles of water counts. Also, tainted water that gives a baby cholera in a formula mix doesn't count.

  • Containers alone. Or a mixture of containers for important things & low quality sources if available

    More discussion: https://hexbear.net/post/1539694

    Against the backdrop of the new cold war between the United States and China, the European Union’s top brass seems to be adding to the pressure on China by issuing credible threats in response to four grievances. Alas, the Chinese authorities are probably more amused than alarmed. ATHENS – On the December 7, the presidents […]
