The most famous case of a professional explosive maker blowing himself up must be Alfred Nobel’s own brother, Emil, who died on an accident on one of their nitroglycerin plants.

All of those happened before the modern safeguards were adopted by the US. We’re lucky none of them went super-critical. We just don’t know for sure if the Soviet leftovers Russia has were upgraded to the same atandards.

OP need to train for languaging.

Musk has called the Moraes’ decisions regarding X “unconstitutional.”

According to which constitution Melon ? You do realize that Brazil is a sovereign country and we have our own constitution right ? You know, the one that has explicit protections against hate speech, discrimination and harassment ?

Also, do you really think you know more about our constitution than a fucking Supreme Court Minister ?

You’re pathetic, Elmo.

According to the open-source intelligence (OSINT) site Molfar, Ukraine has sunk or damaged nearly 60 ships of the Russian Navy.

How, for fuck sake, Russia managed to lose 60 ships to a country that has NO NAVY ?!?

Holy! Shit!

I read this as “We’re not competitive on a global market anymore, so let’s retreat into an shrinking niche, until we’re gone or someone buys us”.

Sure, they can’t compete in price, considering Chinese subsidies, but how about competing in the upper market, with quality and sophistication… Oh, wait… those are US car makers. They wouldn’t know quality if it smacked them in the face.

Well, then. Leave the low end to China and the high end to Germany and Japan then.

Which means Russia has to move assets from other parts of the country to replace the destroyed equipment, creating gaps Ukraine can exploit, This reinforces the idea of how fragile Russia’s defenses are

Even on ideal conditions (close to the Equator, no clouds) like in Northeast Brazil, you only get 5.5 to 6.0 kWh/m^2 of Solar energy, which means the roof of a small car, with 1 m^2 of solar panels, would only generate that amount of electricity if they were 100% efficient. That’s just 10% of the battery capacity of a small EV, like a BYD Dolphin.

My point is, even if solar panels doubled their efficiency, they would still only capture about half the energy of the Sun (currently, the best panels are at 24% efficiency), which means only about 2.5 to 3.0 kWh per day.

I was wrong in one thing, it hasn’t been a thing for 10 years, but for 20. It was determined by the Minister of Justice, based on article 55 of the Consumer Protection Code. More here. I remember seeing some warnings on labels back when the rule was new. My opinion is that companies got smarter and realized that those warnings were damaging to their brands, so they just stopped with the practice of shrinking products, which is why you never noticed.

This has been the law in Brazil for more than 10 years now. We have lots of problems here, but at least our consumer protection laws are top notch. And, believe or not, they’re enforced successfully.

It’s very easy to screw up distilation. If the temperture is not carefully controlled and you miss the points to discard the head and tails, you end up with lighter (like methanol) and heavier (like propanol or butanol) alcohols, all of them much more toxic than good old ethanol.

Thanks for the explanation, I learned something new today.

That’s because it detonated in orbit, so it interacted with Earth magnetic field. Far from the planet, I think there wouldn’t be an EMP, unless the targeted ship has it’s own magnetosphere. But I’m not a nuclear physicist, so take my opinion with a grain of salt.

Even if it was fully operational, Western artillery used by Ukraine is more precise with longer range than Russian, so they can target the ruskies with less risk.

To give you an idea how poor this makes them, the largest municipality in my country, São Paulo, has a GDP of $170B. Yes, that’s right, one city in Brazil has more than 3X North Korea’s GDP.

Hell, Microsoft paid more than that for ActiBlizzard… North Korea is pathetic, the only reason it still exists is China, that wants them there as a buffer between them and US allies South Korea and Japan.

Well, Russia could send the Baltic Fleet to the Tsushima Straight in order to fight the Japanese: https://yewtu.be/watch?v=yzGqp3R4Mx4

That site is likely written by AI, so is no surprise that it makes such stupid mistakes.

Here in Brazil, people can vote while still in jail serving sentence. On top of that, asking any job candidate for their criminal records is illegal, unless the job is on a financial institution, like a bank. Third parties (like an HR department) can’t access criminal records due to privacy protections contained in out constitution and laws.

It’s clear the original was made before all those sites enshittified into their current forms. That’s why it mentions Vine instead of TikTok, which is notable for having been enshittified from day 1.

Once you enabled SSH on the Deck, you can access the filesystem using SSHFS. If your desktop is windows, you can install this program: https://github.com/winfsp/sshfs-win/releases/tag/v3.5.20357. In Linux (Debian derivatives like Ubuntu) install it wit sudo apt install sshfs then read the man páge with man sshfs to learn how to use it.
