Hate to break it to you, but the cheapest and most reliable source of electric energy in today's world is solar. The sun doesn't only shine on Canada and overwhelming majority of the worlds solar panels are made in China.

23:55 | 09/10 Approximate flight routes of our UAVs: 🔴 Red arrows — directions of strike UAV movement; According to Russian sources, around 370 drones were reported, though these estimates and the displayed routes remain highly approximate.

🇺🇸 The USA consumes roughly 520,000 tons of diesel fuel DAILY. I repeat, DAILY. 300,000 will cover 14 hours. #Trump is panicking before the midterms.

Most people are missing what this is all about. This is smoke, and mirrors. The amounts of diesel sound huge, but on a global or even just on an american scale, they are TINY. Usa uses about 500k tons of diesel A DAY. This not about supply; so open your eyes and ask yourself what it is about.

To put in perspective what 1,8 million tons of diesel are in terms of Russian export capacity. In 2023-2024 Russia per week could export 800-900 000 tons of diesel fuel.

In about 3 weeks time poutine will announce that because of Ukrainian kinetic sanctions that he cannot fulfil this promise and tRump will then double down on his "Diesel shortages are all Ukraine's fault" tirade. Just before the mid-terms.

tRump would probably trade him in exchange for lifting some sanctions...💩

Ummm, how did they manage to do that much damage to the truck with an explosive drone without any signs of burning or charring?

I gather from what I read that the vaccine does have a decent failure rate but ,in any case, in most westernised countries I would suspect if something like this happened that the exposed person would be isolated instantly and given a precautionary course of antibiotics.

I have to admit I do like the Dutch system where generally nobody gets named until they are convicted and naming a victim would get you into a whole heap of trouble.

It's very unfortunate, but I live in the Netherlands so most of what you posted doesn't apply to me. This is a country with more bicycles than people. First few years after moving here, I wandered around in a daze but now own 2 bicycles and am gradually starting to fit in.

Dutch petrol locally is now at €2.36. Our plug in hybrid with the small tank now costs over €90 to fill up from empty. Frightening.
