Sounds like their arch-enemies are not even the CIA and fascists from any country (they are not even that good at identifying them). What they truly fear and hate is russian dissidents and people who actually live in the Baltics, Poland and Ukraine and understand what is really going on and can deflate their skewed worldview. They don't see them as enemies, they see them as traitors.

France didn't let you post if you didn't have enough karma in that sub...ok.

Maybe those services could take a hint and create a unified platform where each partner gets a cut depending on % of their content watched.

Depends on where you live. For a european, african or an american, it's a bit meh. For a japanese, chinese, korean, philippine, taiwanese, vietnamese or an indonesian...it makes front page. And since this is World News and all...

Feb. 12 – After another unfruitful phone call between Biden and Putin, U.S. officials warned that a Russian attack on Ukraine could come at any time. A Kremlin aide accused the West of creating “hysteria.” “The Americans are artificially inflating the hysteria around the so-called planned Russian invasion,” Kremlin aide Yuri Ushakov told reporters after the call between Biden and Putin. “The preconditions for possible provocative actions of the Ukrainian armed forces are being created alongside these allegations.”

It's a joke about how apple made their phone even thinner and the battery still isn't removable :P

Probably, yes. Imagine how superhuman you'd feel skydiving without a parachute outside the day of your death knowing you couldn't die. (plot twist: you spend 10 years in a coma afterwards and still die from doing it :/)

I was just worried about Kessler syndrome and just felt relaxed that their orbits were low enough to naturally decay and never become a permanent problem. What this research seems to show is that the aluminum oxide dust does not settle in days/weeks, but it is fine enough to stay there for decades :/

Magnesium oxides can also serve as a catalyst for lots of reactions, but I'm not sure if it will have the same effect in this specific context, I'd guess it would.

That's why I added the link to the wooden satallites, that also reduces the metal debris somewhat and reduces other effects like radio interference.

The point here is not that aluminum oxide "pollutes" on its own, it is that it "speeds up" the harmful reaction between ozone and any chlorine (like CFC) "pollutants" up there without being consumed, so it keeps acting over 30 years. It makes all the pollutants you mention "more effective" at depleting ozone.

This is so 2015...now it would be "Once elected, I will murder every single one of you" and they would reply with joy in unisson: "Hurrah, free lamb chops for everyone, you're our saviour!!!"
