Crazy to look at that CO2 per capita chart and see that we’re lower now than any time since the 40s at least.
About 25% down from 2008.
You ever tried taking a train from Atlanta, Georgia, U.S.A. to Barcelona, Spain?
As opposed to the other bullets that are also heavy metals.
Many people in the US are paid every two weeks, which means some months you’re paid more than others.
Yearly has become standard as is hourly rate, because one is useful for taxes and the other is often directly negotiated.
NASA has no control of flight paths. The FAA also doesn’t specify sonic-boom allowed flight paths. They just outright ban it (with a few exceptions) for any boom that could reach anywhere in the US.
FAA also doesn’t want to deal with people complaining about sonic booms like they did back in the 50s when this all started (they received tens of thousands of complaints) so they have an interest in making sure NASA lives up to their promises.
Yes, they would reduce the overpressure. By how much I’m not sure, but that’s part of the research.
They’re promising a perceived 75 dB level, equivalent to the volume of a dishwasher. Sonic booms are normally about 110 dB or about a jackhammer or a rock concert
And it’s not like you’d hear it all the time, just once in a while and only if you’re in the flight path.
There are houses that sell for the same price as a car ($20‐50,000) in Pittsburgh, so your absolutist statement is dead wrong.
There’s a massive difference between an acoustically-optimized, AIP-capable Swedish submarine built thirty years ago, and what the North Koreans have which is basically none of those.
Also, while the Reagan itself was pretty new at the time, the Nimitz class was already a 30-year old design when that war game happened, and is now almost 60 years old as a class.
Ukrainian soldiers in 2014 vs 2022.
The U.S. and allies, despite what a lot of people say (usually something like “why haven’t they helped since the war actually started in 2014”) helped transform the Ukranian military into the capable fighting force it is today, and the work started years ago.
There are many cases of people being sentenced to death wrongfully. For that reason the punishment shouldn’t exist.

He is the governor of the state of Florida and a potential US presidential candidate.
Useful filters to get rid of him are: DeSantis, Rhonda sandtits, “pudding fingers”
(Don’t ask)
Didn’t realize Lithuania was under 3 million. For some reason I had it in my head that they were closer to 4-5. Insane.
Define “conservative”
The owner of the website certainly has no reason to inflate their numbers…
Just look at how the EU government works, they ended up with a very similar system, just with a parliamentary twist. It’s a bit of a natural compromise when you have a bunch of nations with their own identity coming together to form a larger body.
The value of “X” has been repeatedly downgraded. It’s estimated at around $15b by fidelity. They’ve demolished their own brand by renaming themselves and how you interact.
This is before you get into the whole “twitter has been loaded with debt from the purchase of twitter and so is even more unprofitable than it was before” part of the debacle.
