People should really check Isaac Moreno's Youtube channel. https://www.youtube.com/@IsaacMorenoGallo/videos Isaac is a civil engineer that worked for the Spanish road service and a…

There is Spanish Youtuber called Isaac Moreno that is really worth checking out for anyone interested in Roman roads and Roman engineering in general. https://www.youtube.com/@Isaa…

This is a terrible article. To understand why, I refer everyone to the amazing Youtube channel of Isaac Moreno Gallo. https://www.youtube.com/@IsaacMorenoGallo There are several vi…

I'd say the author is referring to Germany, regarding renewables. The connection being that CH imports electricity from Germany.

>Welcome to my city - or should I say, "our city". I don't own anything . I don't own a car. I don't own a house. I don't own any appliances or any clothes. >Sometimes I use my bik…

The controversy is not insider trading. It is executives exercising their share options during buybacks the price of which they themselves decide. They decide when to buyback and c…

Because to earn dividends you must be a owner i.e. actually hold company stock. To profit from buybacks you only need the option of buying the stock at a lower price than the buyba…

What people forget is that even if Americans may be divided, they're not sacrificing any of their territorial sovereignty to other countries. Anyone seriously suggesting anything l…

Also, bear in mind the Brazilian Amazon territory borders British, French and Dutch interests in Guyana, French Guyana and Suriname respectively.

I count the parent, and a couple more replying with something-must-be-done answers at the suggestion that the territory be forcefully or otherwise removed from Brazilian sovereignt…

If environmental disasters are enough pretext for questioning sovereignty, shall we compile a list, together with the territory to be subtracted? I suggest with start with North Am…

Funny how no one proposed to remove California from US sovereignty when the fires were raging awhile back. Or the Gulf of Mexico coast with the Deep Horizon incident. --- Não vai e…

English is atypical in its irregular pronunciation rules IMO. At least compared to Latin languages. And it doesn't have accents that change the pronunciation in otherwise similar w…

Yes. I don't know their motivation the same way a man is presumed innocent in a court. But people are not courts. So I do not need, not is it practical, to act like one. However, I…

Not really. It's not the particular choice of words that bothers people. It's the fact that they either have to submit to the frivolous power-trippers or die on a hill they don't p…

Also, there is something else. Due to Taleb's principle of the intolerant minority[1], people that feel this is frivolous are faced with a choice: either submit to the frivolous in…

I think the underlying issue is not "that it goes too far". I don't believe anyone would oppose "going this far" in terms of reducing or abolishing actual slavery. I think what pis…

There is no controversy whatsoever. Essentially, you're implying the French are chauvinists that don't care about "non-frenchmen", because they write in French. You are also implic…

Because they didn't translate their jobs section yet , that makes you think you wouldn't be welcome? I certainly wouldn't hire you, after reading that. Looks like you're insecure a…

They contend the interceptor missiles can be quickly re-purposed to deliver nuclear warheads. EDIT: or the missile installations, I don't remember exactly. I don't have a link for …

The zionist bit I don't quite follow either. But it seems clear that modern art has turned into a speculative multi-million dollar business, so "Rothschild" doesn't seem out of pla…

Well, I had to search for the actual terms, because I didn't find them in the post. They're in a comment to the post. So the actual post isn't even using "euphemisms". In any case,…
