absurd reactionary things which are mostly inconsequential

Unfortunately there is not a clear demarcation and I don't see much value in trying to seperate them

Yesterday's steamer calling for fascism is tomorrow's US political leader, and the absurb reactionary things being posted will be used to justify crimes against humanity

The only thing I care less about than whether something is directly consequential or indirectly and possibly not consequential is the allocation of those posts to two seperate communities created because of some bizarre mod clique about shit that doesn't matter (not the name, which matters in a symbolic way, but having two communities)

And now I should disengage because I've written too much about something I ostensibly don't care about

Yeah it's a stupid community title, you reckon the gossip one is better?

Is there any evidence of educational benefit? I don't think there is (still put it on though)

I don't doubt this is AI generated but honestly in any journal article, every one in five citations will be inappropriate.

they're completely dead, did you not see the pictures?

(They were evacuated in advance)

maybe you can get hired by the PRC to balance their budgets

Maybe you can join a reading group here before using some thought terminating cliche like "balance budgets".

in 2023 the total healthcare cost in China was 1,249,253,919,000.00 USD compare that to around 11-14 billion in Cuba.

This is the same amount per person.

I think you've defaulted to defensiveness because AES are often attacked by leftcoms but that's not necessary here

Yeah it should be a lot fucking easier to do as China than Cuba, they can barely import enough fuel to keep the lights on

I reread the article, I reckon it's about satellites in general deorbiting faster to avoid a Kessler syndrome scenario

Sean Elvidge at the University of Birmingham, UK, says this effect could benefit satellite operators like SpaceX by removing dead satellites from orbit more quickly that could otherwise pose a danger to other satellites. “It’s speeding up that process,” he says. However, it could limit our ability to operate satellites in orbits below 400 kilometres, known as very low Earth orbit. “It shows that could be challenging,” he says.

this is beneficial to SpaceX as it means the end of life satellites will re-enter faster, getting them out of the way for their replacements

They can deorbit them at any time though?

Nah, it's pretty crap compared to say, Cuba

E.g. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7388505/

For context the Chinese healthcare system is basically run on neoliberal brainworms (except competently).

You'd rip out the entire system instead of doing these little top up fixes to expand access and coverage.

We did that before too.

Although the US is going pretty hard on trying to undo what weak protections already existed, and flint didn't have clean water for at least a decade (to name the most notable example). remarkable country to have such a sustained decline in life expectancy

is a Presidential system

Just last year they got the last one to drop out on the threat of removal while in office. An advantage of running 80 year old candidates

The US also transferred weapons from Libya to the Middle East - there's a public DIA memo warning that it would create an ISIS

The longitudinal data doesn't really suggest significant impacts (beyond mental health diagnosis, which is also contributed to by diagnostic creep and greater accessibility and acceptability)

Social media and the algorithm are awful but at least we're not still covering everything in leaded gasoline residue
