As opposed to what, the massive magnets and magnetic field in the turbines that these ships use to generate power, and have done for more than 50 years?

No there wasnt a serious effort to survey every square mile of a bombed city in order to uncover unexploded ordnance, because it would have been a huge huge task at a time when the resource available was focused on feeding the bombed out city dwellers.

They didnt have the tech that we have today, so there are many situations where a bomb didn't go off and buried itself several metres underground with minimal impact damage, or fell inside the crater of another bomb which did explode earlier and thus hide all evidence of there being a second bomb. Millions of bombs were dropped, and cities were bombed again and again.

These things arent sitting on the surface being blatantly obvious, they would have been buried by their own momentum. You would need extremely accurate magnetometers, or ground penetrating radar

So, how does anyone enter the workforce?

One reason for quarterly reporting is that it gives greater transparency and insight into how a business actually works. Many businesses are seasonal. Most obviously, virtually all retail has its best quarter at the end of the calendar year. But many other types of businesses have key cycles each year that are tied to, for example, the buying habits of their largest customers. Suppliers matter, too; if farms have a bad quarter due to weather or other factors, for example, you're going to want to watch how that impacts food producers somewhere down the line.

As a Brit who has moved overseas, this is extremely obvious when driving in other countries, including other ex-British Empire colony countries.

Its insanely easy to get a license down here in NZ, and it shows with the quality of driving on the road.

"Motorways rarely have hard shoulders".

Yeah, going to have to disagree with this - most motorways have hard shoulders, while the situation of no hard shoulder is much rarer and always called out by signage.

The stance which has completely removed all protections for women.

Because the shit hole you have created for yourselves is now seeing states not only criminalising abortion within their own jurisdiction, they are also criminalising going to another state for an abortion, or doctors in other states assisting people to have abortions.

As a traveller, theres plenty of reasons why I might end up in a hospital in a state which criminalises abortions and any treatment which may act as an abortion - I do not want my wife to die because we happened to be in a car accident and were taken to the wrong states hospital (its difficult to say "dont go there, go here" when unconscious), where she bled out because the doctors were too afraid to carry out a hysterectomy or something similar, purely because it *might* violate state law.

So dont you try and hide behind the "its the states responsibility" stance, you pathetic piece of shit. Your current regime has made it so much more than that and people are literally dying because of it.

My wife refuses to go to the US while the current anti-women stance exists in healthcare provision over there - imagine being refused medical treatment because that treatment might affect an unborn child, despite the fact that shes not pregnant. The mere fact that she is of child bearing age is enough for some states medical professionals to refuse certain types of life saving treatments, simply because it may induce an abortion.

So while we were planning on visiting next year for AdeptiCon and then do some touring, thats now completely off our radar.

Which didn't take into account all the services other countries buy from US companies.

All that software.

All that cloud.

All those apps.

All the financial services.

Conveniently left out of the equation.

The aircraft in question is a Dassault Falcon 900LX owned and operated by Luxaviation Belgium.

In other words, the aircraft in question is a private charter jet owned by a private company - its not a dedicated aircraft, its not a military aircraft, its not owned by the EU.

Well, somebody recommended them to me. At high doses, too.

I remember hearing, years ago, that the EU no longer recommends beta blockers as a first-line treatment for hypertension (high blood pressure) for a similar reason: They don't seem to do anything. Sure, they lower your blood pressure numbers, but (as I recall) the meta-study showed no appreciable difference in outcomes. That is, people who received beta blockers experienced the same number of heart attacks, strokes, and other hypertension-related problems as the group that didn't take them.

Real question: What would be the point of that? Even hoarded gold would have no value if nobody but a select group of people could do anything with it.

This country's government is designed to have checks and balances on power. Congress isn't supposed to rubber-stamp every suggestion the President makes about spending -- they're the ones in charge of those decisions. Judges, particularly at the highest levels, aren't supposed to be partisan stooges; they're supposed to follow the law, but that doesn't seem to be what we have now. Nobody outside of the executive seems to want to exert their power, for fear of losing it. Apparently, it's enough to be able to claim having it.

Based on their press release, it looks like it's just the case that Chinese automakers are using them more. On their "ecosystem" list, you don't see any Waymo/Jaguar, Tesla, or other companies making cars for the U.S. market (except Volvo).
