I’m sorry, I think they have a lead. You (?) can come up from behind and get ahead afterwards, though, like in the space race!

Indeed. If this happened it seems unwise - even if it was part of an essay suggesting doubling down on Putinist “family values”. I don’t recognise the source, though, and not much else comes up that I trust more on a search.

Edit: I found this. Maybe it’s time to get my Russian practice in. The title does indeed read as described, at least.

Because it wasn’t ever actually about that, of course.

Congratulations, you guys got the illiberal society you dreamed of. Enjoy.

Poor kids, though.

Yep, it’s pretty ironic. That just means anybody could get sucked into ethnic cleansing bullshit, given a few decades.

Most investors are normal-ish people, even.

The weird part is that anyone outside of China was buying up Chinese real estate in the first place. The oversupply issue has been on the radar for years and years.

I like Venezuela better, because the CIA probably wouldn’t have been so easily caught.

Now that I’ve actually looked at the study, what they did is make an apparatus with continuously adjustable distance to display and try to get people to distinguish scaled, fairly similar clips until they couldn’t anymore.

Actual maximum pixel-per-visual-degree values varied quite a bit based on colours involved and the like. And like @GenderNeutralBro@lemmy.sdf.org said, they framed the results the opposite way to the article - human vision can distinguish more than previously thought.

A link to the study, because I don’t think I see one in this very clickbait-feeling source.

It sounds like the study actually did include display distance, and gave different requirements depending.

Lethal kinetic strike? This entire policy is about showboating violence, why would you use a euphemism?

Excellent, that would be intangible and unverifiable. We can present an unlimited amount and live it up on sweat and tears of American workers.

In practice, businesses will make that decision. He can probably move the US to autarky at the expense of 3000 dollar Iphones and coats you have to save up for like in the 70’s, but nobody outside the US will be interested in either.

I’m guessing that these Jews always understood anybody could be sucked into fascism. The ones that were willing to reduce the Holocaust and WWII to German ethnicity aren’t going to have a problem reducing Israel-Palestine to Palestinian ethnicity either.

Add ethnicities to that list, which is the main driver here, although religious Zionism is present and growing. The Nazis weren’t particularly pious either,

Almost certainly similar in spirit, regardless of what their Western fans like to project.

It’s a pretty symmetrical situation, even if they have different skin colours. If only we could treat it that way (edit: and then the capability gap wouldn’t be there either).

Most of Trump’s economics ideas are nonesense. Like the general idea of the US making all it’s own stuff, but also exporting goods a lot. Exporting in exchange for what?

If they own an amount of land farmable for soybeans they’re worth at least a couple.

Orban isn’t buying, though - Russia sends it cheaper.

Oh shit, TIL that’s not how you spell that. Fixed.

That’s a bit rich. A rising gold price is a sign people are expecting trouble. That happens a lot even when civilisations aren’t collapsing.

Looking at facts other than that, bad stuff is going to continue to come, but nothing directly world-ending (yes, including climate change).

Basically, this is a tabloid selling “end is nigh” stuff.
