I knew half of the answers would be “just use linux”

In 2023, the United States imported about 8.51 million barrels per day (b/d) of petroleum from 86 countries. In 2023, the United States exported about 10.15 million b/d of petroleum to 173 countries and 3 U.S. territories.

The resulting total net petroleum imports (imports minus exports) were about -1.64 million b/d, which means that the United States was a net petroleum exporter of 1.64 million b/d in 2023.

The US hasn’t been a net importer of oil for a long time. The reason there is still oil imports in the US is due to different oil types and refinery configurations, not because total oil production doesn’t meet demand.

You’re right, thanks

If we were in the 18th century, for sure. for a country more than 200 years old? No. Israel is not even a century old. There are barely 3 generations there.

He said Israel, not israelians. but it would either be another diaspora or their neighbors will take revenge and continue the cycle of hatred.

Which might be one of the objectives as well. “You can’t let our people in the hands of the arabs, they are gonna kill us all in revenge for us killing them!”. Ensure the israeli state exists because without it, their people die.

Herd immunity and whatnot

2017? Maybe earlier?

I didn’t know about any swing and started using it for the past month with no issues so far

If it was 42h a month then it would start being concerning. 21 days, 1h each way - still good considering the suburbanization of many places.

However, if they are just mentioning time in a traffic jam, not time rolling, then it gets bad

so in a possible hostage situation as far as IDF claims (the hijacking), you bomb the bad guy with hostages? got it

fifa is weird, it is a private company kinda but not really. And they have all rights to the word football (?)

the advantage of having a supranational organization is that everybody is looking at it and its reputation relies on how good it is. the disadvantage is that they have no power other than advisory

so they are destroying both the future and the families, got it

south africa and ireland are taking them to international court, but at the end of the day, it is the countries that actually have people/resources/power to enforce the court’s orders. And nobody is willing to invade Israel to bring them to justice (and bring their leadership to the courthouse). Almost all countries in the UN signed treaties promising they would enforce arrest orders, but when push comes to shove, nobody wants to be the one to do it. Israeli offivials can go visit their allies freely

when the rich countries start paying to fix the problem, the the poor countries will stop trying to improve their situation and help.

The north always says “do your part, we are all in this together” when asking to keep the status quo, but they have never accepted any treaty that makes them suffer the consequences of their actions (or are you gonna tell me that the south fucked up the world?)

this is proposed every chance possible and is never accepted.

The global south can be 100% commited to ending climate change and nothing would happen. If the north doesn’t take their oily, coaly money and do the heaby lifting, nothing will change. The task of saving the world is impossible.

so as long as the north is short soghted and petty, the only reasonable action for the south is the same. sacrificing their short term well being just buys a little more time for the north to polute us to death

in part yes, because it contributed to global warming. we are almost in winter and most of the country has summer temps. that mass of hot air encounters cold masses from the antarctic, causing heavy rain.

Rain like this is atypical because it shouldn’t be this hot in may

If you think Ukraine is in an offensive, you are very behind on the news. Russia has been slowly pushing Ukraine on all fronts and Ukraine has gained no ground in months. anything they got was already retaken by Russia. Ukraine is on the backfoot and being beaten back even worse after the ammo shortage
