  • It’s not Palestine. No one cares /s

    To be honest it always bothers me that civil wars have been raging in one or the other African country throughout last century, genocide, ethno-state, famine etc have been raging almost all the time.

    It’s never been interesting enough for most media in east or in the west. Heck even some media in Africa doesn’t care either. Some human rights groups care, but their funding is limited, and no one questions who is supplying weapons to African genocide propogators and I used to think it’s all Russian or Russian copied Chinese weapons, but last year when I was looking at things in depth, they also have NATO weapons, but I couldn’t find how they got it.








  • Not really no, some nordinc countries with geothermal and tidal options on top of wind and solar maybe, anything larger than an island nation, cannot reach net zero without some form of carbon capture, even if electricity is fully renewable we will still need steel, cement, we’ll still have to refine metals for electronics and batters all of which emit GHG, so everyone has to use offset carbon somehow.

    One way Iceland claims carbon neutrality is because they don’t produce a lot of steel, but if you look from a consumption point of view, how much steel Iceland consumes, I guarantee you, it will look worse.












  • So the way these thieves work most of the time, they don’t know what to do with stolen items or how to liquidate them, so they’ll sell everything that they have to a bit more sophisticated criminal who knows how to liquidate stolen items and knows buyers of everything. Ideally when they steal a phone they don’t care what phone it is, they’ll sell it to their middleman, middleman will pay probably pennies on the dollar since it’s not an iPhone and street level thief wouldn know it’s value, middleman will probably sell it to someone that will gut it and take components out.

    In this case, thieves just be new to the game or amateurs.
