Not the same case. If you get a bomb on a ups package, that's not UPS' fault.

But if you tell UPS someone is using them to send bombs to people, and they don't act on it in the least and even look like they are shielding bomb senders, then it starts being their fault a little bit, doesn't it?


What if there are one or two bomb senders out of the millions of people sending normal packages, and you have hundreds of thousands of false “tips” that are actually just harassment campaigns? Do you cut off service to the victims just in case? What if you can’t tell what half of the packages even are? Mystery mechanical parts and circuits?

But in this case, all UPS was doing was delivering flyers for the bomb-makers, not delivering bombs.

How are they “shielding bomb senders” though? Because their marketing static page was hosted through cloudflare? Taking that down wouldn’t have changed anything here either.

I'd say the mail makes it clear that he thinks canvas is shit and the administration that forces those that are unafected by the hack to postpone the exams is too.

France systematicaly refuses to increase the power of their interconect with Spain, as well as to make a gas pipe that would provide cheap Algerian gas to the rest of europe.

An interconnection is being built up as we speak.

That being said, building new interconnections makes no economic sense for France. The country has no unserved consumers close to the border. That means any electricity imported from Spain would have to be carried further. That involves grid spending paid for by french consumers, without any benefit for them.

The same goes for gas pipelines. No one enjoys big infrastructure projects for stuff they don't really need.


To add to this, Spain gets it gas from Algeria, the rest of europe gets it from Russia and the middle east. So yeah, It's easy to have better prices when your gas is comparatively free from disruptions.

Sure, Algeria does have gas pipelines to Europe. Two of them actually. The smaller one goes to Spain and Spain as we see in this article has lower electricity wholesale prices.

But er, the bigger Algerian pipeline goes to Italy, a country with notoriously high energy prices. So if Algerian gas was the secret that's actually a big problem for you.


What are you talking about? Spain is one of the biggest importer of Russia LNG, at 25% https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/us-remains-spains-to...

Check your facts.

One of the fastest ways to make a state powerless is to make the money they issue and use to pay for everything worthless.

No more tech as all tech components are in short supply, so it'll just become old fashioned fascism.

Why don't I need to build a PC? I wanna run some stuff in it.

When investors stop to ponder if they are ever going to see any return on their superhot AI investments, you'll have all the cheap hardware you could ever want.

They will be replaced with something else, don't feel bad for the trees, they had a good run.

Did they? How long have they been around?

But he was wrong already at the time. The world is made with humans in mind now. As soon as robots that are not human-like become useful enough, the world changes and adapts to them.

Just like the world had no asphalt and curbs before the car. Or just how heavily automated manufacture lines in factories have nothing that looks like a human can interact with it except a few buttoms here and there.
