This reads like Russian propaganda. NATO's EU forces have not used any ammo in the Iran war as they are not a belligerant. Russia's nuclear deterrent has to prove to be still in working condition. There is no guarantee Le Pen would win in 2027 and the chain of command would allow that to happen

Tofu, 100% peanut butter with no added oil or additive, skyr yogurt (10g of proteins for 100g for around 50kcal !), there are a lot of options What's hard is not protein intake but to moderate carbs intake in my opinion

This is such a sad comment. Indeed, the demographic situation was known and predictable in the 80's, and for instance in France we did nothing to plan around it.

So now the young generation is expected to pay longer and longer for retirees, who have a higher median revenue and a higher standard of life than the active workforce (per all studies). There is absolutely no way I'm working until 70 to finance errors from the past without a contribution from our current retirees' wealth. There is anyway no foreseeable future with work for everyone until 70 with our current technological progress unless you want to slave everyone in bullshit jobs. All of this is madness.

Rails 8 can make you a one-person framework and a successful SaaS solo-owner. Don't really care about the declining market share imo, I love and embrace it despite its shortcomings.

You brain somehow get used to the pain when it meticulously destroy your body for no reason, no danger, no signal everyday. I have ankylosing spondylitis.

Lasg time I heavily cut my finger while cooking, didnt feel a thing. Didnt feel anything on my first tattoo - the tattoo artist was quite surprised.

Now I feel a bit better with some anti IL17 medicine.

And yet some day the pain comes back with new, untold and unreasonable levels of pain and you can't explain that to most people. The scale has changed and most of you will never feel that - or just once in a while. But not enough, not everyday with this consistency that shreds through your mental ability to take it and to shatter your life.

I would trade a night of torture against my health back.

And then the doctor with all his knowledge says that no - no other painkillers for AS ! Just nsaids !

Please donate for autoimmune disorders, they are awful

How can you still say that when the crisis show us that critical jobs are underpaid, sometimes practically slave labor. Your arguments get countered every single time in this thread, so I'm not surprised he or she didn't reply to you anymore

Oh yes, they are failing, and I can explain you why. We are in a deadlock in my country regarding elected representatives because the baby boomers vote and they are in greater number than us youngs, so the policy will always be conservative and economically liberal. Basically old conservatives control our future even if they have less life remaining than us on this Earth. (That's how I conceived a new democratic process by the way - amount of votes = number of years remaining in your life expectancy. Maybe a first solution offered to you to give younglings a chance about their future ?). Democracies do have power, but they lack a lot of will.

Add to that lobbies and economic agents controlling elected officials so they keep believing in the eternal growth lullaby, and yes - they ARE failing to implement laws that curtail CO2 emissions by rich people/powerful corporations. I really don't see how that's surprising or subject to debate - everything observable around us is in favor of this argument.

I'm not taking a moral high ground, the problem is systemic and I don't accuse anyone in particular. Rich people, not above the law ? Yeah... I won't answer that because I don't believe it to be true, but I cannot formally prove it.

Oh we do have solutions but you wouldn't like those. Carbon taxes, unlawful to eat meat besides on weekends, mandatory carbon offset of long-distance and/or plane trips, unlawful to advertise in public spaces and I have a whole lot more for you - but they will never get implemented ;)
