I think the alleged ban evasion and potential smuggling might be the bigger issue.

I mean…

Now selling the Keep-It-In-Your-Pants-Pants, CEO edition!

No need to write tearful letters to your company and family, or dive out off sight during a coldplay concert or ask your friend how to slip your wife anti-std pills if you’re a CEO who wears our Keep-It-In-Your-Pants-Pants, patent pending.

Artists rendition what you (a CEO) might look like when wearing them

Scada-systems were always held together by hope and prayer. I wrote about this 15 years ago, same issues. Shodan will happily show you internet connected control systems and has shown them for 2 decades.

Companies do not care about security as long as they are not being held liable.

In 10 years? Maybe. Next year? No. NATO is not just US bombs, but logistics, training, communication, theoretical strategy, standards, infrastructure all the boring stuff that makes the collaboration of nations work. The EU can set up something like that, but it takes more time as we basically outsourced it to the US for 80 years.

Leaving and rebuilding would not be cheaper and running an Organisation im parallel would create more friction. Better to take over NATO from inside or turn it into a new Organisation with less us oversight (and funding)

Plus, Canada is in the NATO, not just the US.

Edit: it will also do nothing to fix cost of living and education in France. On the contrary, it will siphon money into the military in France

They offered settlements to almost everyone, mostly because they wanted to get out of super expensive additional pension plans that all BMW employees have.

Ah, so crypto is mainly used to prop up regimes. Got it.

Shoved into tanks or old mines and hope nothing happens?

Hydrogen EVs are not the topic, that might only make sense to replace diesel locomotives, if that. I am talking about standard store and use instead of coal or gas powerplants.

Yeah, but does energy waste matter if the other option is that you turn wind or solar input off? It should not run during high peak, of course, but if there is more energy in the grid than it uses? Turn it into hydrogen.

And storage, strangely that safety topic never gets raised with nuclear. If we can build safe nuclear, we can build safe hydrogen storage.

Yeah, yeah, same arguments as with solar, too expensive, not feasible, yadda yadda. Always the same.

Hydrogen works, as do pump-storage plants.

He also just announced a job cut of 7500 people. But, of course, there is always money for shit like this.

I wonder if its the influence of the Porsche family that just makes them unable to pivot to EVs

OK, here is the thing. If you are for real, get help. Real one, not internet strangers. Malnutrition will fuck you up long-term. Find out any program that can help you get real food. Get help.

In would also recommend to find a job to give you structure. Not some gig economy scam, something real. Wash dishes, help your community, anything that gives you structure and something to do. You don’t need to get rich, you need a foundation you can build on, because if you are for real, there is some serious ground work missing.

Since you mentioned that you hate cooking and have no interest in making it tasty but want efficient more calories: Pint of ice cream. Let it melt, drink it. 1000 calories per pint. Most of them useless, but if your goal is weight gain…

Otherwise, protein heavy diet (beans, rice, vegetables) plus a workout routine to actually build up muscles and not just fat

There you do nothing

Dansup brings the good stuff

“Yeah, hi, I have a gdpr request, all the data you have on me, delete that.”

Bold assumption that he would read
