American media loves a pretty dead white girl
The IDF is just ABAC on steroids.
I have to assume this was written by an Antisemitic troll to deliberately make Israelis look bad, because the alternative is you thinking this was going to convince somebody.
And holy shit, that's some martyrdom behavior.
I have ~12 million listens across various streaming services
The great thing about bots is that they can listen to every song on file, 24/7/365, and you can spin up as many of them as you like. 12 million is nothing.
Fire a bunch of them and you run out sooner. But juicing the Iranian economy with Russian spending isn't going to hurt the Houthis in the slightest. No more than Ukraine clearing Raytheon's shelves will hurt US production capacity. If there are eager buyers, these factories will speed up units produced.
Same way they did it for the Mario live action movie 30 years ago, I imagine. Get Tim Burton on it and I'm sure he'll give you some advice.
Honda increased the size of the civic to meet us consumer wants
That's the line. But they also increased the price. This is an age old business trick. When you're running fat margins, increase the size of the meal to sell more of the product. The Civic has always sold well and I haven't seen anything to suggest sales improved as the chassis size increased.
The crash ratings are the same between the two.
Not against larger vehicles. But its still marginal. If the F-350 plowing into you at 70mph hits a newer model, you'll be just as dead even if the frame suffers less.
Americans don’t want cheap small cars
American businesses don't want to sell cheap small cars and American consumers are given fewer and fewer options, as you illustrate when you note these vehicles all swelling in size. But when the price of gas jumps, people start piling into Priuses and Focuses and Elantras. Meanwhile, car graveyards are full of Hummers that never left the dealership floor.
the civic outsells the fit 10:1
Fit sales peaked back in 2008 when gas prices jumped to $6/gal. But the Fit effectively competes with the Civic at a lower price point. Dealers don't want to sell them when Civics move just as fast and guarantee higher returns.
It sounds like the restrictions are primarily related to supply, as in they aren’t being provided in enough quantity.
The expectation is that Zelensky gets a steady flow of new arms after the first salvo. I'm sure he's afraid of getting cut off. But, again, why have them if you aren't going to use them? Its not like the Russian military can get any more aggressive in Ukrainian territory. And the Ukrainians clearly aren't shy about retributive invasions on the northern side of the front.
I doubt any of these are in a range of Russian indirect fire teams.
Russian drones and missiles have hit as far west as Lviv. And Ukrainians have sent long range artillery all the way into Moscow, abet without significant damage.
They can't just launch strikes indiscriminately. But we've seen a slew of security breaches on both side of the line since the war started. If you're just putting these weapons in a shed somewhere, they're going to be identified eventually. Its use'm or lose'm.
Its genuinely curious to see a guy who is ostensibly head of his country's armed forces have to go hat-in-hand to all the NATO states and ask permission to use the weapons he was granted for the purpose he's ostensibly been set to. I'm beginning to wonder why the US paid through the nose for a British Aerospace product to sit in a Ukrainian storage locker until some Russian artillery sergeant can figure out which warehouse to shell.
Empty Internet Theory but its just the "Recommended For You" stuff that Facebook shoehorns in between the pictures of my nieces that I occasionally drop in to look at.
Its funny. When you go into some of the early Facebook history, Zuckerberg is exploring monitization options. He floats the idea of turning it into the kind of intrusive, obnoxious, ads-everywhere experience that had shown up on local news websites and the worst kinds of forum spaces. He (supposedly) rejects it, in pursuit of a more sophisticated kind of mass marketing. The theory being that this kind of invasive content scares away users, and what we really want is to maximize the user base rather than to maximize the monetary value of each user.
But ten years later, we're right back to a website that's indistinguishable from eye-ball gouging Geocities crap. The "put ads everywhere to maximize revenue" folks won out in the end. Zuckerberg's genius move was to simply hold them back until the website started hitting the post-one-billion user base load. But then this was always the end game. Just clickbait across everything, with a periodic pop-over ad demanding that you give the site money to save it from itself.
Aw shit, its taking hold of me! I'm going to resent its absence.
Personal complaints aside, the new Mario movie was reasonably good for adults and great for kids.
It was mid, until Jack Black's Bowser hit the screen, and then it was top notch. He absolutely carried that film.
