Yoy got it, no buying produce.

One industry that is really suited for CC is steel production. Making steel from iron is basically removing the carbon from the iron ore, and that has been done since the 1800s by introducing oxygen to the molten iron. This creates a pillar of carbon dioxide from a very localized point and should, if the technology existed and was used, be easy to capture. The Swedish steel manufacturer SSAB accounts for 11% of the national Swedish emissions, and 10% of Finland’s. It’s not negligible. And steel is used every day, everywhere, and for everything. Every other metal pales in comparison. It’s a gigantic industry. And it’s perfect for carbon capture.

Well, you’re not exactly contributing to a world where that insecurity is eliminated. And besides, you’ll never win an emotional debate with rational arguments.

Found the sandwich speaker.

One thing about motorcycling is that you tend to end up where you look, and a lot of people crash into oncoming traffic in corners because the focus on the oncoming car and not on getting around the corner.

I get the feeling that this guy tried to veer, and then refocued with all his attention on the truck that was getting closer and closer, and that made it quite impossible for him to evade. He could have saved it by doing a million things, but large and threatening objects that are approaching usually demand our attention. Silly, primeval behavior.

And if he manages to get one off the line, it’ll go for 20 meters and then break down due to bearings and bushings being fouled.

It is a factory belonging to SKF, a swedish company that produces bearings. Famous for supplying bearings for use in tanks by almost every major power during ww2, and supply to the german side was finally cut off when SKF told the allies that the entire stock was for sale to anyone who paid. I believe the last payment was made by the US 10-15 years ago, finally settling the debt.

Since the war, SKF has grown into a very large supplier of the highest quality bearings, and saying its a factory making parts for weapons is a bit narrow. Bearings are used in most things that have rotating parts, and SKF is large in a lot of markets that aren’t weapons. Their product catalogue is well over a thousand pages, for example.

He doesn’t enunciate or articulate when speaking, which makes it hard to understand him clearly when he’s on camera. I think it should be easier in person, but as a non-english speaker it was pretty hard to understand him at times, as he muddies his words. I guess that could perhaps make it easier to think he’s a bit sketchy. I got the feeling he tries to do right though, but I’m no expert.

Post WW2 a lot of stock was put in scientism in industrial nad manufacturing jobs, which has led to the rise of new public management, cementing the dissolution of the bond between identity and job. The basic principle is that everything can be quantified and measured, and that every step carried out by a master craftsman can be exactly described and distributed. The replacement of actual manufacturing with the menial task of carrying out a single, repeatable step hour after hour after hour, day after day. Like a robot.

That’s the death of skilled jobs, and it’s driving the collapse of the uneducated man, according to Richard Reeves among others. A shift towards cognitive work instead of labor has taken place, and a lot of the jobs that previously carried a large segment of the lower strata has simply moved to asia and lower wage countries.

Press the X? Gotcha! I’ll remove shorts for 30 days or until you come back without cookies in 10 minutes.

I’m gonna admit to doing the reddit thing where I read the title and the comments and start to form an opinion.

Reading your comment, I thought Hmm, well, that doesn’t seem too unreasonable. Should a new partner in a separated-parents-scenario really have a claim on custody? Well, reading the actual article where same-sex couples get married and have children get the birth certificate retroactively changed to not include one of the parents is a whole different story.

Shameful, hateful shit. What the hell Italy.

Yeah, I’m with you. What the actual hell.

How can one gain your level of awareness?

Because the thing holding it together is plastic and using plastic frivolously is frowned upon. The label tears so the turtles live. Convenience costs environment, deal with it.

Lite förvånad över att ingen nämnt Krigshistoriepodden än!

Två tappra historieentusiaster som näsfnissar sig igenom ämnen mellan afrikanska krigsherrar till stalingrad till hattaffärer under krimkriget till blankvapenstrid. Militärhistoria förmedlad på ett lagom klämkäckt sätt, och den lättsamma jargongen gör det även möjligt att höra om några av mänsklighetens mörkaste ögonblick.

Kräver väl kanske ett litet intresse för området, men jag tycker att podden har väldigt mycket att erbjuda. De gillar också 40k, så du kanske skulle uppskatta deras 40k-avsnitt!
