Damit, daß die gesamte deutsche Presse die politischen Aussagen eines Multi-Milliardärs für berichtenswert hält, erkennt sie das Offensichtliche an: Reichtum bedeutet politische Macht.

Was nicht passiert: diskutieren, daß dieser Zustand inhärent undemokratisch ist, nicht erst bei Parteispenden anfängt, beim Besitz und der direkten Beeinflussung journalistischer Medien noch lange nicht aufhört, und ein Problem darstellt.

Ukraine’s weapons #industry presses #government to allow #arms exports


source: https://www.politico.eu/article/ukraine-arms-industry-export-weapons/
“Imagine what it would look like? #Ukraine #exports its #weapons during the war while asking partners for #military #aid. Ukrainians would not understand, partners would not understand,” said a senior Ukrainian foreign ministry

Ukraine is currently one of the best places to test modern #warfare #equipment against a confirmed #enemy under real conditions at low cost. Just imagine if the war were to end, an entire #business model would collapse. Surely nobody could want that to happen when the arms industry is doing so well.

Remember when Israel and their apologist were claiming that Israel would never attack hospitals and they were only attacking Hamas fighters who cowardly hiding there.

Now that they have killed all the reporters cut the internet access and media have moved on, they kill ANYONE who walks or crawls around.

But no one cares. We are watching one of the most gruesome mass murderer and state sponsored genocide in front of our eyes..

In Deutschland können sich Unfallmuster im Verkehr an immer gleicher Stelle wiederholen, ohne das daraus Maßnahmen zur Verbesserung abgeleitet werden müssten und so kommt es hier vor, dass immer wieder gleiche Weise Menschen schwer verletzt werden. Teils auch getötet, ohne das gehandelt wird. Kaum vorstellbar in den Niederlanden.

Letztendlich ist alles, dass wir vorhersehen können, auch durch uns verhinderbar. Die allermeisten Muster des menschlichen Versagens kennen wir. Ebenso deren Ursachen und wie Infrastruktur sie beeinflusst und wie wir Infrastruktur entsprechend gestalten bzw anpassen können.
Nur allein wir tun es nicht und haben uns bzw. unseren Behörden Strukturen gegeben, die Untätigkeit fördern und Maßnahmen für Sicherheit bis zur Unmöglichkeit erschweren.

First contact has been going well. It’s their turn to ask questions. The biped’s face moves and my translator squawks, “Are you <unintelligible>-based life forms too?”

The human and translator converse for a bit. “Element 6,” the translator clarifies.

I laugh, startling the human. “Do you name all the elements? Adorable! Next you’ll be telling me you name the stars.”

Construction of the new 34m antenna DSS-23 at NASA's Deep Space Network (DSN) site at Goldstone, CA, is progressing well. On Dec 18, the 34-meter-wide 133-ton steel framework for the Deep Space Station 23 (DSS-23) reflector dish was installed on a 20-meter-high alidade – a platform above the antenna's pedestal that will steer the reflector during operations.

The new antenna is expected to be operational in 2026.

DSS-23 will be the 5th of 6 new beam-waveguide (BWG) antennas to join the network, following the addition of DSS-53 in Madrid in 2022.

In a BWG antenna, radio waves collected by the primary dish are reflected by the secondary dish and Radio Freq mirrors through the waveguide structure to the base of the antenna. This design allows sensitive electronics to be placed in a climate-controlled equipment room instead of outdoors hanging in front of the antenna dish.

Drawing of a beam waveguide antenna, a type of parabolic antenna used in large radio telescopes and satellite ground stations. In the beam waveguide antenna, the incoming radio waves collected by the large primary reflector dish are reflected by secondary reflectors in a long path through the structure (red) to the base of the antenna, where they are received by a small feed antenna in a "feed house" at ground level. This design is an alternative to the common design used in small dish antennas called "front feed", in which the feed antenna itself is suspended in front of the dish. Beam waveguide antennas are used in high gain antennas for use in space communication, where the feed electronics is too bulky and delicate to be mounted on the boom in front of the antenna, or must be serviced often, as with low-noise cryogenic amplifiers which require frequent filling with liquid nitrogen.

The video covers the period from November 2018 to March 2020. The antenna became fully operational in late February 2022.

If someone declines an alcoholic drink, the best question a party host can ask is “What might I offer you instead? We have…” and have some nice options.

If you ask why not, you stand a good chance of making your guest uncomfortable. Or making yourself uncomfortable if you ask a no filters kind of person like me ;)

“AI has done something that left-wing authors have been interested in doing for centuries: collective artistic production. But these companies have done so in a way that looks more like wide-scale property theft. It’s not merely plagiarism, per se, it’s a kind of primitive capitalist accumulation of intellectual property because the value created by producers is not redistributed to them; in fact, it’s being used to put them out of business.”

Interview: "Enduring the Trauma of Genocide"

A very moving & profound interview on the traumatic & long lasting effects of war.

Dr. Gabor Maté, expert in trauma & childhood development, discusses "the psychology, trauma & reason behind the actions of Palestinians, IDF soldiers, WWII survivors, Nazis & even himself."

#GaborMate #US #GazaGenocide #IsraeliCrimesAgainstHumanity #WarTrauma #Israel-Palestine #Oct7 .
Lest anybody think that history started on October 7...

A study 20 years ago showed that 95% of Palestinian children showed symptoms of post traumatic stress disorder. When you think of the young Gazan militants who streamed into Israel on October 7, guess who those young people were....

And, of course, that war trauma has been going on for decades upon decades upon decades.

A study a few days ago showed that war trauma actually affects the genetic functioning of kids - how their physiology functions a long time later.

So we can just imagine what's happening in Gaza now, & what's going to be the impact in the long term. It's almost unfathomable.
