Wish I knew how.
Voting doesn’t seem to be the thing that’s going to unfuck this, considering how popular right wing extremists are right now and how morons are voting for them in droves, at least here in the EU.
Very true, unfortunately. Probably isn’t going to get any better before things get much worse first, either
This seems to be a repeating pattern everywhere around Europe.
Conservatives fuck up the economy and society in general, leftists get elected and try to fix things but face resistance from conservatives, conservatives blame leftists for everything they fucked up themselves, even more extreme conservatives get voted in because people are morons and conveniently forget who it was who was responsible for the problems that conservatives claim are all the left’s fault. Rinse and repeat.
It took me much longer than I’d like to admit to understand what the title meant. “But 1985 is 0 years from 1985???”
I am not a clever person.
It’s the step between primary and secondary school that a lot of countries have, also known as intermediate school, junior high school, junior secondary school, or lower secondary school: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle_school
Yeah it was a middle school thing in Finland too, at least in the 90’s.
I did an exchange year in the US in my 2nd high school year, and I was honestly a bit surprised at how… well, simple it all was. I was a senior in the US and I’d learned just about everything they taught that wasn’t specific to the US or the English language (and even some of those…) either in my 1st year in high school or in middle school.
Oh yeah I was specifically talking about all these new technologies, not just incremental improvements on the existing ones. Hybrid organic cells have been promised for a long time and it’s not just a question of scaling etc., but that they have had serious issues that have so far meant that they were a complete non-starter for any actual real-world use. I didn’t look into this any further so I don’t know of Longi solved the stability problem, though, so it may be that they’re finally actually ready to even start leaving the lab
Yeah, all these super-efficient panels are all well and good but like you said they’ve been promised for over a decade and have yet to leave the lab due to a bunch of different problems such as stability for these organic hybrids. I wonder if these newest ones have actually managed to solve the stability problem, or is this yet another cell revolution that’ll be coming Real Soon Now™ in 2034
It’s not like literally all Russian artillery gets destroyed before firing off a single shot. Fuzing absolutely does make a difference
It can barely do regular on-the-road travel, so that’s a resounding no
Joke’s on them, turns out it’s how cars look in the '20s. Well, a car anyhow
I dare anyone to claim that the DeLorean didn’t look cool as all fuck (even without a flux capacitor)
Beauty is definitely in the eye of the beholder, because that thing still looks like a low poly piece of shit to me. I do have terrible taste in general though, so take that as you will
trashcan on wheels
Yeah, there’s a reason why they suddenly have a lot of trouble selling their military hardware even to countries that haven’t sanctioned them.
Well, other reasons in addition to the fact that the stuff they’re fielding themselves in Ukraine keeps getting blown the fuck up and they have had to replace it with something that was initially being built for an outside customer. “Yeah you remember those tanks you ordered? Weeelll you’re not going to be getting them quite on schedule, there’s been some… uh… complications. The turrets… they, uh… experienced rapid unplanned disassembly caused by… uh… assembly workers smoking in the crew compartment. Definitely not caused by inferior westoid antitank missiles in Ukraine, our cope cages work against those 100% of the time and it’s not like we’d use your tanks in combat, no siree Bob”
Considering how terrible the writing is on Starfield, I’m not sure Bethesda has it in them anymore. The quests are often incredibly boring, and the worldbuilding itself is a bit meh. Same with the books you find; they cheaped out and used public domain materials for the most part, and the books that do have in house content are… not great. What I liked about Oblivion and Skyrim was that the books you could find really helped to “fill out” the world, but in Starfield they’re just either uninteresting or plain bad – like those fucking cringy joke books
