Who is the dog and who is the tail?

The fog of (internal) war looks to be real in the US political space.

Russia is still struggling 8 months on. Ukraine is a lot more adaptable but you can't change core command and control in a week.

This is just crap.

This. HR is the companies response to the union.

Red under every bed seems to have turned into red in every bed.

They really are speed running Europe independence from the US.

It's sad that none of the lithe bordering NATO countries have the facilities to support the detection and Intel to fill a clear gap.

It was only a matter of time before we got to this point.

Reliability is the concern of all air human transport but considering the options, I'm glad it worked.

This is demonstrating trust in each other as much as trust in the equipment.

Nerd time. Hump yards or hump shunting is when they push a rail wagon down a hill and use gravity to push it.

Then there are a bunch of switches to go through to make it go into a particular road.

It then runs into whatever wagon was already there (and automatically couples together).

This impact is very bad for wagon mounted equipment and sensitive cargo.

I hate hump shunting. So I agree with this post. DO NOT HUMP.

Yes. But protecting yourself from genocide requires you do to things that were previously unthinkable.

War is hell. Evil is relative I'm afraid.

I appreciate a good hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy reference.

In matters of taste.

Not in every single way... I hate how the twisting of this phrase has resulted in abuse of an entire sectors workforce.

Sorry you were one of them too :(

I only ever played number 2. The best mechanic was that I could play with my casual gamer wife and it still be fun for both of us.

Guild wars really has separated itself from other mmos in critical ways that are likely not apparent to most.

Having the areas be brighter and happier when you complete them is a nice touch too.

This has "we are worried you are winning, not just endless meat grinder" vibes.

The quality of your posts lead me to read them whenever I saw them. Thank you.

This is a good move but we have gone full circle.

1. Vendors cover cost to offset the cost of cash handling.
2. Vendors then pass on costs but at extra on top, stop trying to push using eftpos or cheaper methods. Coincides with tap to pay even on debit cards.
3. Government mandates that vendors can charge whatever but it has to reflect their actual cost and be shown
4. Vendors don't bother to negotiate and charge 1.21% quite often.
5. My eftpos (0.3% or less) is now getting a 1.2% mark up at one provider i go to, so I just use the credit card because they didn't bother.
6. vendors to cover costs (see #1)

The whole country now sending way more to visa and master card for 0 gain to the country.

To my international friends, eftpos is an Australian bank card processing system but only works for bank cards not credit cards.

Thanks for that. Have me a laugh.

The context of this rebate is the tax is designed to pay for roads. These companies have to split their diesel use between vehicles that use roads and those that do not (e.g. mine trucks).

So they managed to get someone in government many years ago to say "why yes, you don't use roads so you don't need to pay the roads tax on fuel".

Considering how profitable these companies are ... well.

Happy to be corrected in this background if someone knows better.

That's really neat, thanks for spending time to write that up.

Makes sense that they had the military hierarchy and that integrated a secondary acceptance that you listen to your logistics experts (that obviously includes the engineer corps).

Highly recommend this French film to those curious. Thanks for reminding me if it.

There are other versions of this infographic that do exactly that.

Not too difficult to find hopefully.

I guess Trump got tired of all that winning...
