In this particular case, some of the USMX members may be making money from the strike: Maersk, for example, has seen its shares jump and has raised its prices already.
The strike wil cause a drop in maritine freight capacity which, in turn, will earn some of the carrier more than if they were working normally.
So I’m not sure how it will go, the ILA workers have a massive bargaining chip and I believe they will get a good deal, eventually, but some USMX members might want to stall the negotiations as long as possible.
They are being noticed, but I’m not sure they do more good than harm:
Fossil fuel lobbies have long stopped trying to paint oil as good but rather environmentalism as bad, and activists as idiots.
If you look at old pro-oil propaganda, say 80s-90s it was all about how great life is thank to oil and how bright the future of the oil-based economy was going to be, downplaying climate change and pollution related issues.
Now they’re just engaging in mud throwing because their position is untenable.
Going for the shock factor may just fuel their game.
Aside from nationalistic pride, there are several practical reasons:
Azof sea + Crimean peninsula are a natural chockepoint for Russia’s exports from the river Don, basically all Russia’s black sea inports and exports pass though there
Donbass is incredibly rich in mineral resources
Ukraine’s ports are where the largest Soviet Union ships were built, Russia can’t build larger frigades/aircraft carriers without Ukraine’s facilities (mainly Mykolaiv port I believe).
The dominance over the black sea is extremely important for Russia, as it may affect both its nuclear deterrence and its control over Georgia which opens the gates to central asia (yes Turkey is in Nato but it plays its own game)
Also consider that Russia started the war hoping for a quick ukrainian capitulation, so they would have absorbed the hugely important ukrainian aerospace industry, and its massive farming industry.
They probably ‘just’ want the Donbass and the coast now, so the last point is no longer relevant, but it played a role in deciding to push forward with the invasion.
They took the enshitment too literally
As far as I can tell, that theory is quite fringe and does not have much support from peer reviewed tests.
The quarry is basically next to the pyramids, and the main issue with transportation was most likely space constraints: there’s only so many people that can work at a given time on the pyramid itself, regardless of how much manpower the Pharoah could muster.
Carrying up millions of tons of powder sounds way less practical than carrying the solid stones to me, and making them off-site just to carry them up doesn’t seem to make sense.
Also I see an issue with the correlation vs causation: healthier people probably masturbate more often, on average

Christianity is fantasy role-playing and it’s hurting America, the title is correct!
That’s a bit extreme, there are plenty of reasonable voices, at least here on europe, although the pro genocide groups tend to stick together and have and outsize power for the votes they get, they’re not all there is.
In the US you don’t have much choice but, that’s all the more reason to vote and suport pro palestinian candidates, if there are any in your area.
Pretty skeptical of this reactor, but 2033 is not that far, large energy projects take a long time from planning to execution, this is true for the renewables too.
I mean, it IS better than nothing. But I’m mostly referring to stupid accidents (poorly mantained gun exploding or dude playing with the safe and accidentally firing injuring someone) 300k is a whole lot better than 0
With how bad Trump is, it’s understandable. But make sure to vote pro palestinian candidates if there are any in primaries or on the ballot.
Meanwhile some totally not complicit countries have cut funding to the unrwa for political gain.
I know the blockade and bombings impeding access to umanitarian trucks is a giant issue, but the impending collapse of the main provider of aid is the one thing we can colletively stop, donating to the unrwa directly.
But it also makes sure you get paid something in case accidents, at least in theory.
It’s ridiculously easy to do 300k plus of accidental damages misusing a gun, but most people don’t have 300k to pay even if a court orders them to.
I have gpt4 with copilot at work so i mostly use that, it is pretty good for programming, you see its limitations when you start relying on it a lot on autocompletions, maybe because the code itself is not too coherent and gpt gets confused
Maybe chat tasks are simpler because it writes the whole thing from scratch, though I mostly ask it for limited functionalities, eg write a function that takes x and returns y or use a certain ORM to change a value.
I would suggest you try both gpt 3.5 and the free huggingface minstral 7b version (you can probably run it on pc too, it’s not huge) for programming tasks and see for yourself. For general knowledge though, gpt wins hands down over minsral 7b
Yeah only have the 7b it seems on huggingchat, that’s the one I was talking about.
Given how good the 7b I wouldn’t be surprised if the 70b is better than gpt4 for programming-related chat.
I have tried the version available at hugginchat and it’s almost gpt4 level for programming tasks but not so much for general knowledge
WTF
