“Despite political and economic challenges, 2023 saw air cargo markets regain ground lost in 2022 after the extraordinary Covid peak in 2021. Although full-year demand was shy of pre-Covid levels by 3.6 percent, the significant strengthening in the past quarter is a sign that markets are stabilising towards more normal demand patterns,”

A big one is when an advert is made to look and feel like organic content. The “Ad” flag (legally required) is in faint small font like someone forced them to have it there.

From the article, they seem to have figured out temperature control. So Mole people might be less agitated than a Vancouver wild-fire neighbor :)

And even if you ‘exit’ to the woods, you’ll be easy to note, just by your absence (When the majority of the population are present, it is easier to note who is absent).

But we have to keep pushing back about these absurdities.

The refrigeration sounds like a great idea! Do you do this as part of its preparation or is it just economies of time and scale?

I am looking at Gaza and the lives whose loss we are witnessing every hour and thinking how this will directly shape the US election. The traditional US camps are pro-Israel as usual, and I don’t expect any of them to relent on that position else they lose the “numbers at the polls”.

We saw in 2020 how COVID response was constrained by the general election in the US. Even when it was clear why public policy should have saved more lives, the assumptions in Republican strategy limited clear action on the biological threat.

In 2024, we are faced with a similar scenario where clear decisions on saving lives and avoiding genocide in Gaza — and easily avoiding an unpredictable war — is constrained by the upcoming 2024 elections.

Fuel prices will blow up, inflation always lurks behind fuel prices, social dislocation, and perhaps more authoritarian rules emerging around the world as they justify increased (in)security measures to ward off terrorism.

We are staring at a dark phase.

Horrible! The dam’s structures could not be maintained as required due to the extended political dysfunction in Libya. Just messy!

That sounds like something gamers will add to their “tourist destination”.

Fascinating! Never seen anything like this before.

Do they charge by the minutes spent there + extras or is this a membership thing?

Their seniority allow(ed) them free passes on details or precision.

My grandma, having to call for help but doesn’t know who of the many kids are around: hey, hey human who was named

Translation takes away from it.

Oh yes, this is the path to giving up.
